Legion Magazine‘s May/Jun 2014 issue features D Day as the main cover sell.
Major battles tend to work well for this magazine.
Here’s what Art Director Jason Duprau has to say about the cover:
“We wanted to do things a bit differently for the cover of our May/June 2014 issue. June 6th is the 70th anniversary of D-Day and we have a special feature on the subject. We wanted to be bold and iconic so we used a well-known photo of the Juno Beach landing, and developed bold typography for the cover line. We also adjusted our masthead to incorporate ‘Special Issue’, our D-Day 70th anniversary logo and the secondary cover lines, which also gave us more room for the D-Day word mark and photo. We kept the sky bar clean and simple so it didn’t compete with the body of the cover.”
