To begin with, the cover is a dizzying mix of colors that should not be paired, even if it is the triumphant return of everyone’s favorite season. Calista Flockhart (who is dating Harrison Ford…yes, this is a strange world) is adorning the cover. Her tan-in-a-bottle is, of course, flawless.

With Phantom Menace, we didn't know. It didn't have Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher. It was not a slam dunk." Well, maybe, but even so, the new picture looks like Shaquille O'Neal standing three feet from the basket. Though it faces sticky competition from Spider-Man two weeks before--and, in weeks to come, from Men in Black...
