I really hope that the next publisher produces proper covers. I'll forgive them if issue #301 is a pin up, but everything after that should tease the story inside. PLEASE?!?
To be fair, although this has been a problem for much of the run, the covers of ARAH have been very tied-in to the internal story for about two years now regularly.
The casino covers have been especially tied in for the most part, and the Falcon covers were all on-point. You still have stuff like the Serpentor flub a few issues ago, or the bald man in the jar. Where we can easily see that the artist is given direction with the best of intentions to match the story but then Larry doesn't give good descriptions so the cover image still ends up just barely off the mark.
My favorites have been the Atkins casino covers.
