    The cover design swiped from the original HIGH NOON movie poster.

    I’ve noticed a few swipes from the old hardboiled paperbacks … one of them recently appeared on a DC book … something with Rene Montoya as the Question, holding hands with some woman …

    SWEET AGONY looks pretty sweet, indeed!

    Jamesmith3 has a pet project along these lines, too, though he’s focusing primarily on comic art.
