I've read your email concerning your plot for your next Penguin book, and it looks like you've got things happening pretty well on your own there. In response to it, I do think that there should be enough action (if you want action that is)in that plot synopsis. And the only thing I think you should be careful of is the homage you're thinking of paying to the Beatles. I feel (going on what I've read so far) that you'll be full on over dosing there, I mean you can tip your hat to them sure, but you don't want to end up blowing wind up their arses if you know what I mean. (You'll probably laugh when reading that expression there, or be disturbed - but it's one that I didn't come up with myself (although I did want to use it of course).
Redrawing famous rock albums instead of the graphic novel covers sounds fine to me, it's just that these sort of things would be best placed in the Penguin makeover section at the back of your book I think. As for a cover, I believe that we (if you'd like my help on that there of course) could come up with a better cover together with a better composition and that's make creative.
Anyhow, I'll give you a call again about catching up soon, and, as far as I'm concerned, I liked much of what I read in your synopsis, so I think you should start drawing away at your comic book soon...
yep the rock albums were to be in the same section as the novel covers were, that way the variety could be varied and wide ie time or life cover magazines, movie posters, etc...
I think the cover will need to be poppy, up, cheerful or at least colourful. and the cover will probably come together better when more imagery for the comic is completed.
