That has to be the most distracting armor anyone would ever hope to wear.

Ironically, even with that ridiculous armor, the artist of whatever this pic is from is better than the usual one they use for the cover art.

Which I noticed. Because the sad part is I can`t help but make fun of Mount Doom reject and an armor that belongs in the Joker`s closet....

I so totally agree. Which is horrible.

The funny thing is that when I first saw the picture and ignored the title, I thought for a moment it might be real. The regular artist is baaaaad. But it's higher quality than his stuff.

Almost looks like something a Scientologist would put on the cover of their books, what with the giant exploding volcano and all.

Not that I'm saying Sanderson's a Scientologist; he's a Mormon, which isn't surprising considering how he's from Utah.

Sanderson was actually born in Nebraska.


Also, Nick, the cover is fake.

You want to know the really sad thing? According to the person who made it it's a photoshop of Darryl Sweet's Lord of the Rings Cover and another one of his covers. Apparently he can draw when he can be bothered.
