All of the covers this year were human-designed, collaborating with artificial intelligence.
Spring: In honor of the start of our 40th year of publishing, a veteran of The Great War salutes "40 years of dedicated service."
A celebratory bottle of spirits is in the foreground as fireworks explode in the distance.
The bottle has a big "40" printed on it, an allusion to both our anniversary and the popular 40 ounce bottles of malt liquor (which, coincidentally, began to get popular around 40 years ago).
Also printed on the bottle is the opening sentence and title of the Spring issue's editorial.
