Does anyone else find this recent cover design for IT to be deliciously creepy?

Same here. The artist also did the original Misery hardcover, which I like alot. Very nostalgic for when I first became a King reader....too simplistic for my tastes....I still prefer the cover on my edition....though the claw is a bit silly....

....I think a balloon in the back of the grate would have worked as well.....Indeed, Doc, I also get very nostalgic about those covers. Never thought about the claw...I think GNT is correct about that. If anything, maybe there should have been two eyes subtly added instead of the green appendage.
You know, I wonder, when books are rereleased with different covers, who is the intended market -- those who already own the book? As ThatEndDown implied, sometimes readers need new copies to replace older ones. I wonder if the majority of sales from a new release is comprised of new readers or ones who have already read and owned the book (I'm thinking that a lot of new King readers may acquire their copies from used bookstores).

s, Because the float,....I think a balloon in the back of the grate would have worked as well.....
Sigh, every time I post something about this book, I want to go read it again. So many books, so little time.
That's why I am always reading several books at once. Not only do I love reading, but I am constantly rereading books.
I think this was the paperback reboot that came out earlier this year (along with the rest) but I'd wager that a movie tie-in will eventually be released, too; That seems to be the typical protocol.It is being re-released? Is this a paperback or hardcover?
