Cover Snark: A Crime Against Umlauts

Squawk of the Were-Chicken by Richard J. Kendrick. Both the title and author font have a lot of decorative dots, making every other letter look like it has an umlaut. The silhouette of a rooster with red eyes is cast against the moon. A woman with curly hair brandishes a giant wrench in the foreground.

Sarah: You know all of those gifs of people looking baffled and confused? I’m all of those gifs at once. Elyse: The font made me think we were using lots of umlauts. Sarah: Aw yeah Cövër Snärk! Kiki: In the darkness of the night…beware … Continue reading Cover Snark: A Crime Against Umlauts
