The New Yorker 9/11 anniversary cover

The New Yorker front cover for the week 24 September 2001 is already a part of the iconography of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. This week, five years on, the magazine carries another great cover on the subject, a double cover expressing the continuing absence at the ground zero site.

What’s really great about it is that it works even if you didn’t remember/see the first cover. Sometimes you see clever nods at classic covers that assume that your audience is as obsessed at your own navel as you.
I really like the Virginian-Pilot’s9/11 newspaper wraparound cover too.
