      I'd say we can chalk this one up to an artistic "oops".
      FP, where are you seeing it reversed on Heather? On her "wanted" poster? Because it looks normal to me there.

      Le Messor, don't get all WEIRD on me now. Maybe Guardian is just crouched in front of his poster 'cause it wasn't a flattering picture. Also I'd like to think that the physical difference between Mac and Heather would be enough to distinguish between the two of them.

      I thought maybe the poster he's obscuring is Talisman's. She's been more active than Puck recently and would seem an obvious candidate. Or... maybe not *shrugs*, who knows?

      I don't think there is a poster behind Mac, it appears to just be the panelling of the bricks on the wall.

      & the maple-leaf being the round side on Eaglesham's sketch was his first ever drawing of Mac that was never intended to be publicly seen so it may have just been an honest mistake.

      I respect that Mr Jimenez likes Aurora's yellow costume (and her hairstyle from that time), but I really wish he'd stop drawing her in it for the covers If she's going to be in her black and white costume inside the book. A lot of new readers will be saying...WTF?!

      Then that's why they're rebelling -
      They don't need no thought control.

      They did a Star Wars bit, too. The Cell Phone song.

      If you heard the drum solo I reference, you'd know why I'm referencing it...
