To be honest I prefer the Anchor Bay cover with the baffling Aquarius artwork. At least it's a painted image executed with a degree of skill . . .

That's beacuse they are heads in a fishtank! I guess it has something to do with the alternate title Aquarius ? Maybe the artist was told the title first and the plot much later? I find that confusion quite endearing . . .

Damn, I remember the shelves of HMV and Virgin being dominated by sleeves like that - dark days indeed.
