There were moments when people glibly assumed Oliver Frey loathed Spectrums owing to the number he destroyed in CRASH cover illustrations, but the opposite was the truth. As he remarked when ZZAP! came along, the old Spectrum was one of the friendliest objects which simply lent itself to painting, unlike the brown Commodore 64 which merely resembled a piece of fudge. Here's another cover unrelated to any game, excepting perhaps Mizar's Out Of The Shadows, and one that was actually a reworking of an old mail order catalogue cover, featuring a hero bursting forth from a TV screen. |
