Surprise surprise, I don't talk about it much but I do have an actual design job that doesn't only consist of drawing stupid cartoons and one of my tasks each week is to come up with concepts for the cover...
Sadly, most of the designs I think are cool don't get picked (the editor is uber conservative and kinda boring when it comes to the cover. [actually really boring if you ask me]) But no one is asking me so i get to put my covers on Behance...and so on the off-chance that anyone wants to look at some past and present cover ideas that were thrown in the heap check out the examples and the link below.
*And please don't get me wrong here...I'm not saying that all our covers are bad or that these are the best designs on the planet, they are far from it...but I do think its always interesting to see what doesn't get produced along the way
