Covered.

I don’t get to vote for the American Society of Magazine Editors’ Best Cover of the Year, but that doesn’t mean I can’t share my favorite covers with all of you here.

I read a lot of magazines, so I get to see a whole lot of magazine covers every week. For me, magazine covers should be able to tell a story (or reference a previous story) with subtlety, wit, and minimalism. Also, I like bright colors.

Check out the list of finalists for the best cover at the ASME page. Here are my picks for the 2008:
