This was Vasil's 2nd round of ideas for the cover, based on a few thoughts I had thrown his way.  This is what I told him:

Now we're COOKIN' WITH GASOLINE!!!  These images are awesome!!!  There's a

lot of great stuff to choose from here... wow.

I guess my favorite is #3) the alien creature bursting out from the human

body.  This is BITCHIN'!  I would add the Horde tattoo to the human skin

he's pulling off... but awesome.

I like #4 as well.  Really sums up what's coming.  and the demon face is

great.

Image #5 would be cooler if it was just a closeup of a human hand with black

spiky nails jutting out from the finger tips.  Again, that idea of the alien

inside bursting out.

I also like #2) Cole impaled on the syringes.  Just kind of cool and makes

you wonder... what the fuck is this story about.

image #1 is cool, but not as evocative of the story, i don't think.

I wouldn't be opposed to fleshing a couple of these out, maybe having an

alternate cover or two.  They're all pretty awesome.  What do you think?

my order of preference would be 3, 4, 2, 5, 1
