The only other thing I would have wanted to see on a cover like this was a giant typewriter... and there was no way to get that in there.<br /><br />Lovely.

And, to a certain extent, the nay-sayer faction loyal to Bill could be right. But, whatever the truth, the fact remains that their brainchild is coming up on his 80th birthday. And the latter's popularity shows no signs of a-Bating.*<br /><br />So, thanks for this thought-provoking cover, Ross. And, to Bob Greenwade: wouldn't "Fingerman" be a great theme song for a TV series about Bill's crime-fighting adventures.<br /><br />"Fingerman! Nanananananananananana! Fignerman!"<br /><br />*Sorry!
