I'm neither playing or reading AoW yet, but I wanted to comment on the art for the campaign: I love that a lot of art is showing the PCs ::losing::.
Seriously. I love the picture from the front of the first issue- with the PCs fighting hundreds of giant worms- oh, it's end-of-the-world-tastic.

Agreed. It makes me wanna jump to the last installment of the series and die a good death. >:)
FOR ASGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD! OW! HEY! OW! STOP IT!
The thing that I like most about that picture is the fact of what's really going on- if you look at the poster itself on Paizo, that rift that all of those worms are falling through- if you look closely- is Kyuss himself. In the background, there's what looks like a huge cloak with the opening in the hood pouring out all of these thousands of garguantuan worms.
Oh, I love the end of the world.

That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, an aeroplane - Lenny Bruce is not afraid. Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn - world serves its own needs, don't misserve your own needs. Feed it up a knock, speed, grunt no, strength no. Ladder structure clatter with fear of height, down height. Wire in a fire, represent the seven games in a government for hire and a combat site. Left her, wasn't coming in a hurry with the furies breathing down your neck. Team by team reporters baffled, trump, tethered crop. Look at that low plane! Fine then. Uh oh, overflow, population, common group, but it'll do. Save yourself, serve yourself. World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed. Tell me with the rapture and the reverent in the right - right. You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty psyched.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine
Sorry, I just couldn't resist it. And that cover is easily one of the most hellaliciously cool pieces of art Wayne Reynolds has ever done. Me, my favourite element of the AP art wise has been the amazing intro pieces by Joachim Barrum. So wonderfully moody, his pieces for The Hall of Harsh Reflections and The Three Faces of Evil in particular really impressed me. Eva Widermann's portraits have also been excellent (I'm still in awe of her mortal Kyuss).
A while back someone shared their site where they had posted original watercolors of items in WC, I've lost the link and can't find the post. Does anyone still have that address?
