The image on the right is the original cover for Money Run. But the designer misplaced the image file of the gunman, so it was replaced with the guy you see on the left.
Had I known about the Contest cover, I could have told her to retrieve the image from there - but I prefer the new guy (more evil looking) so I'm glad I didn't know.
Because most covers are assembled from stock images, this sort of thing happens a lot - in fact, it's happened to me before. Does this look familiar?
