Nice job! :)

I don't know this series so not sure if the scan lines/graph are fitting to the show, but perhaps consider fading them a little more. It seems kind of distracting (especially in some areas like behind the synopsis).

Have you considered incorporating some of the background color from the front onto the back or vice versa?

For me, this is a cop show and the front image, while good and nicely done doesn't convey COP, it makes me think SURFER

Thinking you don't need the characters names under the actors names, but that's a personal choice I think

I think that texture makes the text on the back very hard to read

The tagline on the back 'what kind of cops are you' would work better on the front IMHO

You could think about dropping the spine pic and using FIVE-O police badge instead?

Also I think whatever blend you have on him on the back isn't the right choice as it makes his tatts, part of his face and part of his arm green

Don't mean to sound harsh just my opinion mate, :cheers:

No problem my friend, criticisms are always welcome, I'm always open to suggestions.

About the front image, i didin't find any good image with "action", so i I choose this one.

About the names, i like to see this way, but like you said, is more of a personal choice.

I will reduce the pattern, to see if becomes better.

Are to talking about this badge? http://i.imgur.com/JWskO.jpg Instead of a character picture put a badge in all covers?

This looks pretty cool so far! I like the water splashes around the Special Features.

Perhaps you could add some sort of faded background to your front?

Looking forward to seeing the next update :thumb:

I made a few changes in front and spine, what do you think?

Where do you think that the back tagline "cops" work in front? I try, but none of the places i put the tagline convinced me.

I'm still searching for other front image
