| The Thin Lizzy/Grand Funk ones are not even that similar. There's a bunch of others in that style too, many punk ones like U.K. Subs and Vice Squad. |

Yeah, because on the Lizzy cover Don Brewer sports a mustache while Mel Schacher has shaved his off and added mirror sunglasses. Oh, and they're not standing on one another's shoulders anymore!
Mark Farner looks pretty much the same though...  |

well it looks like that robo dragon warrior dude is sporting a massively goofy face while clumsily dropping the bombs manually one by one
i think the initial idea was kick ass, and the art itself is well crafted, but the outcome is just all doofus...still like it of course  |
