I doff my cap regarding Art Spiegelman, as he is a comic genius, and the Maus graphic novels are possibly the greatest of all time. However, admitting on the re-release of his 'In the Shadow of No Towers' book that he didn't redo the cover (that was done in collaboration with his wife, Francoise Mouly) and used AI as he was 'too lazy' is sacrilege. I think l will stick to my (oversized) original then, as l'm too lazy to go hunting for the new copy if he can't be bothered doing the work. After all, it's only the cover and size of the book that's changed, so if he's not doing the cover, what's the point of me purchasing another copy of it.? Grrrrrrrrr. He's still a genius though, so go and buy his work (especially Maus)
