Are we there yet...? (Conspiracies PB question) - Barry Lee Dejasu - 02-07-2007

Granted there's still a copy of the original PB of Conspiracies at a nearby Borders, but c'maaaan...

Is there at least a cover in the works for the "new" edition, à la The Tomb and All the Rage, available for visual scrutiny?

I just looked at my collection of "newer" RJ books and it made me wonder. These covers are finally growing on me.

[SIZE="3"]I'm spending the next couple of days at a distributor's warehouse signing a thousand or two RJ paperbacks for an upcoming promotion. I'll let you know if Conspiracies has a new package.[/SIZE]

Well then, comrade(s): what do you think will be the imagery on this cover?

Maybe mixed conspiracy imagery on the top (i.e. Christ's face fading into a black field with a pattern of white lights, UFO-formation, which in turn fades into a sheet of paper saying "SESO..."), Jack's silhouette holding a gun off to the side, and a big dark house at the bottom?

...got myself a little excited there. I can't wait!

Sorry, folks. I'm signing 1500 copies each of Crisscross, Infernal, Hosts, and Gateway. No revamped Conspiracies in sight.

*snaps an annoyed finger* Well, hopefully by the end of the year at least all the new editions of The Tomb, The Keep, and Legacies will have whetted the appetites of enough fans to go out and buy the next RJ book that has the oddly simplistic blue/silhouette cover. Then us collectors can rejoice.

Also, I like Dr. Trilobite's idea on what the cover should be like: rickety stairway leading to darkness on bottom, night skyline on top, Jack with wavy lines around him in middle.

And FPW, what promotion is this, exactly?

Oh ja, zah is new edition of Legacies...

Sorry about the quality.

And as for the reason why, I think it should be pretty self-evident: since Hosts came out in paperback, all the Repairman Jack novels (including the hardcovers) have had these kinds of covers. So why should the first three be any different? Make money AND satisfy collectors all around...

That came out this year? I had no idea. I only got into it over the summer; I just assumed since it looked slightly more basic than the others, they released it awhile ago and just copied it later on. Thanks.

Well thank the gods that's finally underway! Hell, 6 months is a lot better than indefinitely... Thanks for the update!

Now if only The Touch, Reborn, Reprisal, and Nightworld got their mass market (re-)dues...
