RE: The Sierra Box Art Grand Tournament – Vote for the Greatest Cover! - Baron Blubba - 01-07-2026
It's empowering to know that all I have to do to win the Greatest Adventure Game Cover award, all I have to do is go to the arcade at the bowling alley, win 25 tickets on the Throw Balls At Fuzzy Clowns machine, get a set of vampire teeth (inflation is fierce, these were 10 tickets tops when I was a wee bairn), put 'em on, throw a bedsheet over my head, and have Baroness Blubba take a picture.
Casting another vote for the Kernel's Request.

Vote for The Colonel's Bequest - it's fun and pretty.
BW - It just looks like sheet ghost has farted and is now desperately trying to get out of bed.

I like the CB concept a lot, but I honestly don't understand what's actually happening in the image of stabby guy. I even flipped it upside down, and still have no idea what's supposed to be physically going on in that space. Other than the hat and knife (which seems like it's probably backwards to me), it just looks like a whole lot of deformity.

I have literally never looked like that after a fart. Joe, you might want to rethink your diet.

Here’s how I always saw it, although it looks really awkward now that I traced it out, even with the skewed perspective. Sorry, I don’t know how to make the pic smaller.

It's Foxtrot Fedora, the Hooded Mosher of the Roaring Twenties!

The guy trapped with the fart under the sheet is strong lore.

Yep, that’s pretty much what I arrived at too. There’s just a whole lot of funkiness going on with those arms, plus a knife isn’t swung like a sword.
