Whether his covers are simple, complex, interesting, or just silly, they're all fun to look at.

To my knowledge, this is the last cover released with art by him, coming out the year after his death in 2013.
I know not a lot of people are paying attention, but I'm just content to dump what I feel was some of his best work.
