D&D Covers
I've discussed Dragon magazine covers in the past (somewhere; too lazy to link to it), but this post from ENWorld on a discussion about PHB covers through the years sums up my feelings succinctly when it comes to Dragon:
Covers since seem to have focused more on trying to entice you into wanting to become the character displayed, rather than be involved in the scene.
"I want to be that guy!"
rather than
"I want to be THERE!"
The former was the case for Dragon for some time, particularly under Paizo. It appeals to one mindset; mine (which was served by Dragon covers moreso in the 80's) is the latter.
