I was expecting unremitting dreck on their website, but these look really good.
So what's the logic behind the terrible classic covers? Pictures sell better than just a title? The intern made them?

My heart leaps up when I behold
Remainders in the bin.
So was it when I was in school
And now that I'm a agéd fool
Shitposting on the chans.
The schoolboy's father of the fool
And I should wish my covers be
Matched like to like in foolish consistency.

>>	Anonymous Tue Jul 2 11:47:05 2019 No.13398535 >>13397423 I never truly thought these covers were real, because they just seemed so abnormally terrible. Then I actually laid my eyes on them in some bookstore. Good lord.
