Cover Snark: Burger King and Bobbleheads

Welcome back to Cover Snark!

Unveiled Desires by J. Wine. A man on a motorcycle. He has on sunglasses. His leather jacket is open reveal a bare chest. His head however looks photoshopped on as it sits low on the neck.

From M: Another cut and paste disaster. This guy’s head is not only too small for the rest of him, but someone removed his neck. And what the heck are those red circles? Leftover Christmas ornaments?

Sarah: I need the Harley community to weigh in on giant red jingleballs on your handlebars. Seems…unwise.

And I cannot stop laughing at this poor man’s pasted on head. My God the indignity. His unveiled desire is to have his own neck.

Amanda: His head looks like it’s going to bobble right off.

Asterion by Alessa Thorn. A shirtless man with the figure of a dorito (wide shoulders and narrow hips) is tied up by Wonder Woman's lasso of truth. He looks grumpy with a bushy beard and long stringy hair flopped over to one side.

From Elizabeth S: I don’t even know what all crazy is going on here.

Sarah: Setting aside the completely distracting Y shaped torso, did Wonder Woman get him? Is that the lasso of truth? What do you think this guy is confessing to, dedicated steroid regiment? Stealing conditioner?

Claudia: Wow. Gym-rat Jesus!

Sarah: The lat bar is his shepherd? He shall not skip leg day?

Amanda: This man feels very familiar to me. We may have snarked his image before.

Reign by Roxie Noir. A photograph cover of a man in a white dress shirt with a suit jacket over his shoulder. He has a drawn on crown in white chalk on his head.

Sarah: This is giving me Perez Hilton vibes and never in a good way.

Elyse: I was going with the little crown kids get at Burger King

Amanda: I feel like this has a new illustrated cover. I recently featured it on the After Dark sales.

Sarah: At least on this one, I can read the Wine Mom Font correctly.

Fallen Willow by Roxanne Tully. An illustrated cover designed to look like dot printed comics. A man in a cowboy hat and white tee embraces a redhead in a green shirt. She's holding up her hand to what I assume is to stroke his cheek.

Elyse: “Smell my finger.”

Sarah: Nooooooo

Amanda: Welp, now that’s all I can think about.

    Now the motorcycle one, I’m pretty sure those are meant to be turning signals or reflectors–but the colored filter on the image has turned the yellow to red, which…you don’t want on the front of your vehicle, since red = brakelights/back of vehicle… Can’t help with his head, though. Or wearing a leather jacket shirtless, which just seems unduly sweaty

    Asterion’s lack of internal organs really distracts from the incredible typography on display here. I am not opposed to dudes being tied up on romance covers, but I can’t quite enjoy it here in
    ……….OF THS………..
    THS CTHUPT……UNDERWTHPLD

    Reign has one of those fonts my eyes never want to interpret correctly; I keep seeing it say a name like ‘Reu’gan’ or ‘Keig’n’. (And I swear, I was of the generation that still learned cursive!) Meanwhile the guy in the background keeps doodling on the mirror after someone took a shower

    My first thought on Fallen Willow was “*poke* *poke* *poke*” but now I can’t think of anything else either, thanks
