Here are 6 ideas of potential covers.
Top left- A high shot of Isaac in a fisheye perspective, little detail of the environment he's in; a distorted path with foot prints leading down it.
Top right- Isaac holding the 'Justice' statue from the middle of the police office; in a ballroom dance, sort of pose. The antagonist's cape bleeding across from the left.
Bottom left- A close up shot of Isaac's chest and lower face area, a sinister smile with his hand raised with a 'hush' pose. His lower right breaking apart, pieces falling from him; some of the pieces are people.
Bottom right- The 'Justice' Statue in a dark background; Isaacs equipment lain out at the base of the statue.
Top- Isaacs police equipment strewn across the floor, the antagonists cape looming over in the corner.
Bottom- Entirely blank piece with Isaac and the child he has to search for, for the first case in the story. A 'Winny the Pooh' esque image, he is walking with the girl, holding her hand- her lower half distorting/fading due to her lack of legs.
I had shown these thumbnails to a few friends and all of them had thought that the bottom left image on the first page woul be a good choice- this was also one of my favourites so I went along with their choices; There was the suggestion of possibly implying the antagonist into the image like the others; I followed up with 2 more thumbnails of a similar cover.
The left image was adding a baton to the cover, but the moment someone pointed out that it could be mis interperated as something else, it was pushed aside.
The right is essentially the same as the original but with the antagonists cape coiling around Isaac, I'll sketch out the rough idea of the cover and work to see what looks best.
The below image was just a quick sketch of the protagonist holding the girl's hand, the butler holding onto her, and the other officer- Peter holding onto him, it was just for fun but I thought I'd include it as they are characters from this project.
