This is a stupid picture

Look at it.
Now look again.

That's stupid.
Look at that sword-stick-fecking-thing.  It looks like an 1980 photoshop job.  This is the cover of the German edition of a 1980 game called Warlock.  At first glance it looks like it might be cool, but look again.
He's wearing some sort of weirdarse earrings and riding a horse that looks hangdog.  Some broken down nag and a so-called warlock that is trying to pull a Gandalf.  I don't know if it is supposed to be a sword or a staff or what.  A mate of mine suggests the top bit must "shoot off" like in The Sword and the Sorcerer.  I'm inclined to believe him, I'm afraid.  He's holding it all nonchalant braced against this poor horse's neck and riding like he really means it.
Bollocks.
Put this on the list of crap wizards.
