1st: Unused concept.


2nd: Unused concept.
The character in the book has amnesia and can't remember anything he has experienced. All he can recall from the past are things he has read in books, magazines and comics. His name is Giambattista Bodoni. He can't remember who he is and when the doctor tells him his response is "Giambattista Bodoni is a famous typographer". I set the whole cover in Bodoni and took passages from the book that keep popping in his head throughout the story.

3rd: Final cover.
