Overkill Comics (Mockups)
Overkill Comics - FAKE
The options are as numerous as there are artists/bands to choose from, but it works best when there's an associated theme or mascot, as there is with Overkill.
The skull with wings creature made its first appearance on album number three, titled Under the Influence (1988), which, incidentally, was the first Overkill album that I ever owned and is largely responsible for the love of that decade's Thrash music that I still have today.
Named Chaly, the skull-bat has been the cover star of most of their subsequent studio albums. At time of writing that's a 'holy-shit-impressive' nineteen more - and that's not counting Live stuff, EPs, or Compilations, which would add another nine or ten to the tally.
Overkill are prolific and, with very few exceptions, are still producing albums that put their peers to shame - newcomers and old duffers alike. Yes, that absolutely includes Metallica and Megadeth. [1]

DUNE: Book Covers by Ozan Korkut
DUNE: Original Novels:
Book Covers by Ozan Korkut (2015-20)
The six images above are by artist Ozan Korkut, created for Ithaki Publications' Turkish language editions of Frank Herbert's original Dune novels. It's likely that I'll eventually find time to include the final retail versions in each book's respective Book Covers post, but I found some 'clean' ones with no text or logos, which I figured would make an interesting separate post. The images above are just a thumbnail. You can find larger versions of each one below the cut. They're not a high enough resolution for printing, but they're decent enough for a crappy Blogger web page.

Robert Frost: Nothing Gold Can Stay (1923)
Nothing Gold Can Stay (1923)
by Robert Frost | 1923
Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
