Given that the new MST3k Volume XXIX DVD set contains a special extra feature on artist Steve Vance, the guy who illustrates the Shout Factory mini poster artwork, it would be a good time to ask fans which of the MST3k video releases has the best artwork, including the Rhino releases.
My favorite MST3k DVD artwork is the one for “Kitten with a Whip” in the Volume XXV release. The poster artwork by Steve Vance proclaiming “She’s got claws…and she likes to scratch!” juxtaposed with Crow and Tom as Ann-Margret and John Forsythe’s characters is just perfect.
Crow dressed in a woman’s blouse and blonde wig, holding a broken glass bottle in one hand and grasping Tom’s necktie in the other is just very clever and witty and delivers a great punchline with the aforementioned tagline.
What’s yours?
