Reader Chris Paluszek submits the cover of the University of Central Florida Indie from mid ought-four for your consideration. He thinks that the artist may have had one key influence. I leave you to guess who that might have been!
My initial response was shock, because obviously that's a horrible rip-off of your style, Johnny!
But because I'm self absorbed my second thought was "How come this asshole has an illustration in the local paper and I'm still waiting to get published?"
Ahahaha! That is great! And by great I mean awful and hilarious. It's so blatant. I've always hated the saying that imitation is the highest form of flattery.

Is it worse that it's a blatant rip-off of your style, or that it's a horrible realised piece of work?
Honestly, there ought to be a law. A proper one, that involves punishment by snake bites.
(Not "snakebite", the much beloved first cocktail of many a British youth)
This kind of thing always makes me feel a little sick. Although I guess you could just take it as flattery...
Revenge of the Bobbins!
