Ah, a new bimbo design. A far cry from the talent of Richard Chopping, whose Bond covers bore comparison with the work of Tom Adams on the Agatha Christie paperbacks in the 60s/70s. The new designs are supposed to be attractive? Wish I had the old David Jacobs' hooter from Juke Box Jury. I definitely vote it a 'Miss'.

They seem to be aiming for the vibe of the Robert McGinnis film posters from the 60s. But concentrating on the girls rather than Bond.

They shoulda turned around that last chick, and scooted the tattoo down.

... meaning it would have been the only one to sell - my point being, I hate these new covers....
