No Robin Scorpio - a.k.a.: one of the most iconic and beloved heroines in daytime history - on this cover, yet we get Minnie Mouse Maxie and Jagger?

How dreadful.

Kirsten is also on the cover because it's one of the new shots they took, otherwise they'd have all old shots. Who else in the current cast could've worked? No one wants Leslie on there with how she looks now. I suppose Lulu would work but with Luke and Laura on there, it would be redundant.

I love the couples on the cover and don't really mind Maxie, but they could have picked someone better. ASJ is a WTF choice for me. John Stamos or Ricky Martin would have been more better choices if they were going for middling 90's stars.

I forgot about Monaco, she could've been the person in place of Storms. I agree Stamos makes more sense than Sabato Jr.

I just looked up Ricky Martin and GH and almost laughed. The Tarzan hair and if they were going for a past 90s GH male hunk that's also somewhat recognizable to the mainstream, they made the right choice. Blackie is 80s and Sabato Jr.'s pic looks old school but not too old school. I wouldn't have even recognized Martin if they put this picture on it.

Yeah I'd have gone for John Stamos on the cover, that'll guarantee high sales lol

I was just saying he was 80s so I think they were going for a 90s hunk. That aside, I doubt they have shirtless pictures of Stamos from GH. I feel like the Fabio type photoshoots with the guys totally shirtless were mainly in the 90s.

Over Ricky Martin?

Look, I love John Stamos as much as the next person (after all, he's the only reason why I tuned in to Full House every TGIF), but I find it hard to believe that he or Antonio Sabato, Jr. (who I don't have anything against, personally) would garner as much press as Ricky Martin - even in his post-"Latin explosion", openly gay, Broadway-singing celebrity existence.

The pictures of ASJ and KS hurt the cover because they look like they were just pasted on. The two couples in the boxes on the right look like someone gave thought to the layout, and they should have just left L&L alone on the left. Less is more in this case. L&L alone would have been fine.

IA. Luke & Laura alone would have been fine. Or even just with Duke & Anna and Sonny & Brenda. But Jagger and Maxie just do not fit. If you listed the top 20 all-time most popular GH characters - neither Maxie nor Jagger would be on it. Heck, I'm not even sure they are in the top 50. It's just WTF.

It's also a hideous photo of Kristen Storms. People are going to think it's a tribute to that Grateful Dead band from the Muppets. Not GH.

The cover looks cheap all around, and also gives the impression that GH has NO IDENTITY. These aren't even very famous people to the casual buyer. It's awful.

Out of 50 years worth of characters/actors Kirsten Storms and ASJ 'make the cover? mellow.png

When I saw the cover I was thinking they put KS on it because of the Zenon moves and the last notable thing ASJ did was that reality show.

Cover would've been better with more pics and in black and white.

I'm not liking this cover at all....and can't exactly explain why. Maybe it's the KS and ASJ pics (which seem out of place).

The AMC 'Farewell' cover looked much better.
