A few of them like the Batgirl one almost work (get rid of the Batman standing in the background

The original album cover has Prince on the bike and a woman (Sorry never seen the movie so no idea who) in the background. If there were nobody there it wouldn't look like the original, and if you're going to put some there, might as well complete the genderflip and throw in Batman

I much prefer Cliff Chiang's Yvonne DeCarlo original

[halloweenjack]

I remember that now. In fact, isn't this whole thing basically Chiang's idea done with movies (instead of record covers) and other artists?

[his_spiffynesss]

Pretty much yeah. I'm guessing someone in the DC bullpen really liked the Purple Rain pic.

[halloweenjack]

I got the Blu-Ray for that movie not too long ago. I'll have fun imagining Bruce doing "Sex Shooter."

I think you mean Yvonne Craig. Yvonne DeCarlo was Lily Munster.

[his_spiffynesss]

Yes, Craig not DeCarlo

I'd forgotten about that one....Good catch.

I'd LOVE to see a Yvonne DeCarlo cover though!

Apollonia Kotero, who played the love interest after Vanity was fired or dropped out or whatever.

Also, it's cool how the symbol on the hood/windscreen on the bike is a riff on Prince's symbol.

Also, this.
