Having the extra “lost” pages for the TPB would seem the only reason to have both endings drawn. After all, the election will be three months before the book is due to ship; even if they’re using overseas printing, they should have time to draw the ending after the election (barring the unlikelihood of a repeat of the 2000 election).

I kinda hate myself for being so nitpicky as to say this, but on the other hand, Bluewater started it when their initial cover image for the Hillary Clinton had the wrong number of stripes on the U.S. flag…

On that cover, is Palin supposed to be standing in front of a real U.S. flag? Because, if so, they’ve made another error. On that cover, I count either nine or ten stripes that run the full length of the flag, below the blue starfield (the union.)

In reality, the U.S. flag has only six stripes that run the full length of the flag. (The other seven stripes at the top of the flag run three-fifths of the length of the flag, with the union taking up the remaining two-fifths-of-the-flag-length in space.)

Naturally, you have to cut artists some slack sometimes when it comes to verisimilitude. But, like the previous error, this is the kind of thing that they could easily have gotten right if their artist had good reference.

Are they paying a fee to IDW for the trade dress?

I wish women had better political role models.

Hear hear!
