Front Cover Analysis - 3

I do not think this is a very effective use of magazine front cover, the quote 'BEHIND THE MASK...' is on the wrong kind of background because it becomes very difficult to read when the background gets a bit lighter. They might not have spent as much time on this magazine because it's a collectors issue and so it already has the aquired target audience, it doesn't have any prizes which EMPIRE magazines normally have because they normally aim those prizes at target audiences. Obviously this is a slightly different issue to otheres because it is limited edition and a collectors issue, so it won't have the same connotations as other normal magazines.
