Artwork you thought you'd never want to see...

Whit's wiping down the counter, Connie's mopping the floor, and the kids are sipping on their milkshakes. If you want to talk about Adventures in Odyssey the radio drama, this is the spot to do just that!

Artwork you thought you'd never want to see...

Post by Bennett »

Since I really don't have much to post about, I decided to post this picture. I only saw this once, and I forget where. Incase you never got a clear look at the Washingtons besides in album 39, here they are:

And, oh Boy--This is the one cover we're glad we definitely never got to see:

Image

And here is some artwork that we will be seeing very close. Yes, apparently, Mr. Whittaker is a hunchback. This book will be coming out March, 2006. Will it have the same cover? No sure.

Image

Along the same lines...This one is coming out May, 2006.

Image

That's all for now...

Uh... judging by the titles, I'd say they are re-releases of the 1st 8 books in the 12-book AIO series that Paul McCusker wrote a few years ago. See where it says "four books in one"?

The 1st book in the series was called "Strange Journey Back" and the 7th one was called "Danger Lies Ahead."

Not to advertise or anything, but yesterday's update at Eugene Forever contains more details about these book releases, particularly the first one ;).

Xavier looks really young in that first ablum. Like the same age of Marvin.

Yes, I thought that too. I think if he was just a little bit taller it would be better.

Ahh! That isn't real good, huh? =P~ I just really took a good look at it...scary! Maybe it is me but that isn't what I imagine a village looking like...one hut and a beach.

It's the picture they used in Clubhouse for the article about Eugene's experience there (sans the stuff about his dad).

If Whit is missing part of his right ear, due to World War II, why don't they ever show it on album covers or most of the art featuring him??

Wow, I didn't even look there.

Looking at it now, I'm impressed by the behind-the-scenes updates. I'll be sure to check your site regularly.

I totally agree that Xavier looks way too young! And, although I'm also not impressed by the artwork for the books, I'm totally excited that they're re-releasing them, because I've been wanting to get them for a long time now! \:D/

I spent weeks and months finding and getting my copies. ](*,) If I had known that they were going to release them again I would not have bothered looking, or buying. ](*,) Oh well, I have to say that while the art work is not great, it is alot better than the art work on the original books. I am going to buy these so I can read them and keep my others in reasonably good shape.

I actually think that I like the artwork better on the old books. :-k It wasn't the best ever, but I liked it better than this stuff. I have almost all of the old ones - I might get the third set of 4 (I'm assuming that they'll eventually make one) because I'm missing 3 of the last ones, I think.
