I need ideas for a cover for Industrial Strength Magic 4. My editor is about halfway done with the first run-through and I realized I need to get started with the cover.I only have two ideas right now, one is a dynamic image of Prof. Replica and Solaris fighting high above the earth, while the other is a picture of Perry getting bothered by the twins, who are tugging on his clothes/hair.One is epic, one is cozy, which doesn't really fit the severity of the book.Do you guys have any ideas for a cover layout?

Comments

FreakShow

The twins one but with some piece of furniture in the background morphing into a mimic sneaking up on them

Domy

Good with cozy. Perry as a dad was always more important for the story than the doc and Sol

Vinohr

Maybe Solaris floating distantly over a ruined section of city with Perry and Replica hidden in the foreground

Stanisław Drewienkowski

Perhaps a mix of the two, Perry standing between twins and some sort of battle, altough maybe not clearly Solaris. Something to convey him acting as shield for them and the world

Prinny Knight

Perrys standing at a printer looking bored, all the papers coming out of it are his problems. (Dr. Replica, the twins, spiders, robots etc.)

Derek Engols

I was thinking that one meme of a high level player shielding a new player. Instead of arrows, it's apocalyptic forces clashing in the background, and Perry trying to wrangle his kids in the foreground.

TheGreenKraken

I like Domy's point. Perhaps the twins could be cosplaying as the others attacking each other, or bothering perry like the original concept.

Ted mend

I would do the classic superman goes bad and just have Solaris hovering and a destroyed bunch of heros and building under him

Ford-Thomas Frank Loveland

Any way to do the kids hanging on him and a large window in the background with a light based nuke

Gibby

Perry walking down the street with the kids while they bother him. In the sky above them is the fight.

Ano Ano

This was my immediate thought. Perry wrangling kids while something apocalyptic happens in the background. Even if it's just two figures clashing in the air with a dbz style light show.

alex godbeer

Maybe the twins fighting and then also prof and sol but they're in the exact same pose

God

Have it be both, tied together with the spell that allows branching possibilities

One of the more memorable scenes was Chemestro figuring out how to make himself permeable to The Tide at the exact moment before it was needed to prevent Mimic-Solaris from killing him. Not sure if it's cover worthy, but I'd still like to bring it up as it's the first scene from Book 4 that comes to mind, which can be good information to help answer this sort of question.

Paratus

I'd like to see: * When they were in Marigold's bunker and Solaris peeled it open. * The standoff of Marigold / Tyrannus / Paradox when he threatens her with Brendon just kinda there. => "“I understand that if I killed you, it would give me enough power to solve the mimic problem. Do sacrifices have to be made?”" * Or maybe just when Paradox's parents find Brendon driving around

Spirit Stones

Why not both but have twins playing with Perry’s hair be a shadow outline

Exrotes

Perry at the Australian super DMV while the twins tug on his clothes.

Michael

Marigold’s bunker with Solaris looking for it was peak

Big casino

Why not both? Perry getting tugged along by the twins while the two doomsday supers fight above him in the background.

Arrogant Dreamer

Solaris pummeling Perry with mimics in the background being destroyed with the city being wrecked and annihilated

FossilWreckers

I think the cover should feature the fiber-optic webs that I thought were gonna play a role in dealing with Solaris.

Spencer baird

Combine the two, Perry playing with the twins as soloris winds up to blast them

Chris Gast

Marigold attacking Perry's Momimic while Paradox was fighting her. Alternatively, Marigolds bunker while Marigold, Dave, Chemstro, etc plan to fight Solaris. Could be a good chance to show off the odd cast of capes.

Doctor Zero

Go with your epic cover idea. Anybody reading til book 4 will want to see a Solaris / Replica showdown. The cozy cover doesn't represent the book as well (as you said). There's a lot of other epic moments in book 4, but Solaris vs. Replica is both well foreshadowed/hyped and unique to book 4. It's a good choice.

LucasTheLost

The kids taking pony rides on the bioweapon-monster-thingy, while Mom's and Dad look on proudly.
