Love the final product... but for some reason I gotta admit, I kinda also dig the simpler coloring on the left.<br />Reminds me of simpler times (and comics) and how most Euro-comics look (colorists tend to avoid shading and gradients over here)<br />It looks kinda "classic".<br /><br />(but the atmosphere is amazing on the right)

Not the biggest fan of hi-fi but as a Booster Gold fan I'm stuck with them. However, this cover is good. Looks like the Perforated Man upgraded his regular shank on the left to some kind of energy/plasma shank on the right, Booster better be careful! I bet they do the same color change to the cover of issue #44, Jurgens' return.

Booster and the Perforated Man look good but the rest of the cover looks horrible with the computer colors. Comics in general need to go back to simple or we're going to wind up with ugly chromium covers or worse.

Are you talking about the 90s? XD<br />And all those ol' platinum/shiny/relief/3D/chrome covers that were invading the industry?! XD

I much prefer the hi-fi cover. I like how the red-grey background sets the mood and brings the focus to the main characters. I like the shiny highlights to BG's costume and the glow added to PM. I guess I am not much for nostalgia.

The first image is only flatted, it's only in the first stage of coloring process, prepared for the main colorist, who later changed the flats to proper colors and then added rendering and special effects.<br />I don't like the chromium gradient in the background either, people at Hi-Fi usually do better work.

That's a nifty evil Booster there from Norm Rapmund.
