Question #144

Art theft time!

Well sort of. What game cover was heavily inspired by these designs? It isn't a direct rip like my previous ones but once you see them together its obvious that the artist had this image sitting in front of them.

I'm not familiar at all with manga/japanimation beyond AppleSeed and Fist of the North Star, but it seems like I've seen that design all over dvd covers.

When I had Section Z back then, I thought it was an awesome cover. When I first saw Bubblegum Crisis stuff, I thought they'd ripped off the SZ artwork until I learned that BGC was first when I later watched the series.

Damn you for not using an actor I'm familiar with like Jack Nicholson!
