I'd be happy to replace the ash tray on the Road to Perdition cover with something else, if you can think of something that would work better (except some sort of gun imagery, which I used for History of Violence and I'm using a bullet primer for my upcoming Wanted cover). Do you know how hard it was to find an image of an ashtray at the angle I wanted? I wasn't even thinking about visual anachronisms...

Sorry mate I didn't mean to disrespect what you have done, I know how it must have been to find the image of the ashtray, Please don't get me wrong but I might have an idea if you wished to replace the ash try, the only other thing that seems to be a prominent item through out the film are the hats

Just searching the title of the film on Google most images show Tom Hanks and other characters with a hats on, then I came across a picture of a replica hat here it's only a suggestion I'm not even sure if a hat would work, and please I'm not telling or asking you to replace what you have done already, I'm happy with the cover as is

As for your (many, many...) suggestions. SSHHH!!! You'll spoil all the surprises!!! Don't you know by now that I'm WELL AWARE of what's out there and what I need to add yet? Jeez, DS... you have no faith in me...

Oooooo what have you got up your sleeve

and yes I should know by now that your well aware

loads of faith mate, loads, just like to remind you every now and then

Now that I've totally shown my ignorance I'll go away in shame and sulk, just to wait for what you have next :weird:

Yeah, the thought of a hat briefly crossed my mind, but I felt the ashtray was much more visually appealing. No disrespect suffered, I appreciate you pointing out my error. Sorry if my response seemed like I was annoyed, I meant for it to sound joking (but I've found tone and inflection don't carry well through the internet :P ).

And I also mean this with a light-hearted tone: please refrain from posting those lists of things I haven't done yet. I'm getting to them all eventually, and I like to keep some element of surprise, I enjoy seeing people respond with, "Oh, I totally forgot about that one!" It's like buying someone a really great gift that they aren't expecting at all, only to have someone say to them, "You know what you need..." and ruining the whole unexpectedness of it... Oh well, I'll forgive this one time, DS...

As for what I've got coming up next, well... you'll have to wait and find out!!

No problem mate, it was just an idea, and I know exactly what you mean, in the past I have especially seemed come across as being angry or grumpy, without seeing the expression on the persons face an innocent sentence can seem to come across either way

Oh and I'll be sure to keep an eye out for what you have next

Oh and no more lists or suggestions

One exception, though... when I'm 80 years old and finally finished with this collection, I expect you to notice if I missed something!!!

When your 80 mate I'll be 96, I doubt I'd be bothered by then :Papy: you'll have to deal with my son :Crazy:

LOL it doesn't count for me since it was a comic strip and I'm only doing comic books proper, just poking your chops a little! Can't wait to see what surprises await. I for one LOVE the surprise of what new updates bring, that has certainly taken precedent over finishing anything. I only mentioned that because I couldn't help but notice that I was almost out of dvds to put your covers on and it made me happysad.

Well, I've said it before, but the continued interest in this collection is truly what has helped it go on for so long, and both of you â€“ Darksaber and Punisherchad â€“ have been two of the most extremely valuable and vocal supporters (and that's not to deny the importance of many other members here).

I'm happy to keep adding covers to this collection so that you can complete your personal collections and I'm honored that you've chosen to adorn so many of your films with my artwork (it must take a lot of time to print and trim and whatnot). I can only hope you stay as interested once all of you covers are well... covered.

At some point, I'd love to see pictures of where your collections are at now (I really enjoyed seeing your collections the last time you posted pics)!

So, thanks again DS & Punisher. I really couldn't have done it without you two!!

You certainly deserve support, this set is nothing short of genius and professional grade, better than pro-grade why else would this hobby exist! I will be interested as long as you keep making any covers, there's a Transformers 3 bluray that will come out that already has your name on it for a cover! I love seeing what you post, some of my favorites aren't even movies I own or want to own (The Shadow, Howard the Duck). I will post pics when the set's ready. And I'll post more in about a year when I finally buy all the dvds I have covers for but no dvds for. :cheers:

So here's one that not too many folks have been asking about: the 1970's "Wonder Woman" TV series! I figured I'd mix things up a bit by doing these, and also so that I can scratch them off my list. Not too much to speak of for these sets...

Wonder Woman: Season 1:

Enjoy!!
