Blown Covers

  New Yorker covers you were never meant to see

We “aww”-ed and “ooh”-ed and laughed a lot this week. The overwhelming majority of our artists painted a tender, engaged portrait of fatherhood - a far cry from the cold authoritarians we would have seen just a few years ago. Mixed in were a number of sperm bank images — so I guess we can say today’s fathers are either carrying their kids on their shoulders or else they’re…making donations. We can’t wait to hear which images you liked and why in the comments below. We also love reading your comments on the runners-up and winner.
