I don't know about you, but I've been in need of a good dose of laughter and awesome and I got it when I ran across graphic designer Mike Young's sweet cover designs for some classic Shakespeare plays. I think my favorites are the MacBeth and Romeo & Juliet covers.
Don't you want them on your shelf? Make sure to stop in and click on each thumbnail to get the full effect.
Thanks to The Olive Reader for the heads up!

Those are great! Too funny!
ReplyDeleteI hate Romeo and Juliet, but I'd be soooooo tempted to buy that copy!
ReplyDeleteBrenda, they gave me several good laughs. The Othello and Hamlet ones are pretty funny as well.
ReplyDeleteBritt, that's the thing! Love it or hate it, those Xs over the eyes are awesome. Lol.
These are so awesome! I especially love the Hamlet one. And the Macbeth one. Ah!
ReplyDeleteOMG I love the 12th Night one and the Macbeth.......hehe I've been Lady M, so it's all the better!
ReplyDeleteDana, yes! The Hamlet one is so great with the ghost in the crown next to him. *shivers*
ReplyDeleteAnon, awesome! I just love the blood on her hands.
Those are brilliant! I guess they are just a graphic design exercise? If they were real I would utterly get Twelfth Night for my big sister. Love the little mustache.
ReplyDeleteJenny, I know! I wish they were real as well.
