I forget where it was exactly, but I know I've seen some commentary before about this item and its cover photo. I seem to remember someone pointing out just how inappropriate (yet predictable) it is for KJA to, once again, shove Frank Herbert's own son into the background. Good ol' KJA ... he never even met Frank.
Seriously, could the HLP have possibly made a worse choice in "authors"?

Well they've got Frank in a picture of a cake saying, "Well done my boys," like they're somehow fucking related or even knew each other. That is everything that is wrong with those guys.
shouldnt that read "the sons of bitch's of dune", I know these two butholes raping dune is not on the level of a natural disaster, global war, or economic collapse, but for the love of the GodEmperor, isnt anything sacred?

I hadn't seen that cake pic...Oh god..."My Boys"? There is no one in Herbert family that don't see something wrong on that?

The singular multiplicity of this universe draws my deepest attention. It is a thing of ultimate beauty.

The HLP at its finest.
Nothing matters except keeping Kevin "One Book Per Year" Anderson happy. That way, the checks keep rolling in and no one has to go out and actually work for a living.
It would be funny ... if it wasn't so disrespectful to FH's legacy.

I like how Brian is standing behind Kevin, showing us the little bitch he is. It's obvious Kevin is the one who gives rather than receives in this couple.

KJA is madder than the Baron in the David Lynch's movie! Look at his face he almost looks like Sting-Feyd!
Only the books written by Frank Herbert are canon.
I hate picutres of Frank Herbert without his beard, Its unholy.
I was watching an interview with them about PAUL OF DUNE, and Brain Herbert says "One of the most wonderful things about DUNE was that my father left sooo much to the imagination." It was in refrence to the gaps inbetween the books. That's ture, there's no punchline.
I think KJA if holding Brian at gunpoint anf forcing him write these books. When they went home from that interview, YHe probably tied him to the wall and whipped him repeatedly.

I agree. I grew up with the picture on the back of my Dad's books, classic bearded Herbert. When I saw a pic of him beardless for the first time at DN I didn't even recognize him.

The first time I saw him without his beard was on the back of The Jesus Incident. I just assumed it was Bill Ransom...I still don't know what he looks like, wikipedia time I suppose!
“But what is the good of friendship if one cannot say exactly what one means? Anybody can say charming things and try to please and to flatter, but a true friend always says unpleasant things, and does not mind giving pain. Indeed, if he is a really true friend he prefers it, for he knows that then he is doing good.” -Oscar Wilde
