The History of CRASH

Issue No. 23

Crash

As this is a personal view, I'll be honest and say that though this isn't the worst CRASH cover it's certainly Oliver's poorest. There's no doubting the visual impact created by the hand seen in close-up, bearing its blood-drenched dagger, but there's also little doubt that this was a subject in which Oliver had little interest - or rather, he felt less out of sorts with the subject than with the way the Editor wanted it portrayed. To fans of the gore-a-minute film series, there was no need for a cover line to say 'Jason's back' in Friday The 13th.
