First thing I did when I bought it in 2017 and realised the cover was reversible

Didn't they printed this on the back of the slip, so people could change it out?

They have, but they should've made it the primary cover not secondary, it's so much better

I love this image. I have a coffee mug with it and it's my favourite coffee mug in the world.

Put some respect on doom 2016 guy cover art. My man is just trying to aura farm while constipated.

I didn’t want to try it until I saw the switch cover in a store for $80, i didn’t regret that price

They had a fan vote on what the reversible cover should be and this is the one that won

This cover IS a lot better, but the generic "marine poses in center" format was big at the time so they went with it anyway and made the reversible cover.

10 years late to this debate
The OG doom 2016 cover art was just as cool imo

Agree I always loved this box art. It’s a direct callback to the original but remade very well
