Apparently, there are three different covers out there. They’re those weird things where the picture changes if you look at it from different angles. The one I got is, from one angle, Anakin and Ewan Kenobi. From the other angle, it’s Darth Vader and Obi-wan Guiness. The Anakin/Vader side isn’t all that interesting, but the Ewan/Alec side has me entranced. It’s astonishing how much Ewan MacGregor looks like Alec Guiness. I swear, tilting this thing back and forth is like watching him age. Young/old/young/old. Damn, this is cool. Anyone else have this issue?

I didn’t even know TV Guide was still around.

It’s still around, but **Miller** was talking about covers from 11 years ago.
