As you may know, the header art for our “Secret History” feature on The Curse of Monkey Island was done by the great @Paco (V), known intergalactically for his unfinished comic adaptation of the first game: Paco’s work was so on-point that it sometimes gets confused for official promotional imagery for Curse, and it has therefore turned up, without attribution, in all sorts of low-effort articles, such as: Curse of Monkey Island is the Only Pirate Game You Should Take Note of This Month (Gamespew, 03/29/18) Escape from Monkey Island hits GOG, gets bundle discount (AltChar, 06/19/18) Monkey Island Creator Debunks Myth About Guybrush's Name (TheGamer, 04/28/22) *Curse of Monkey Island designer reveals reasons for series' art style switch (Eurogamer, 05/05/22) Why Return To Monkey Island’s Art Style Is So Divisive (Screenrant, 07/06/22) All Monkey Island Games, Ranked (TheGamer, 12/28/22) **Steven Spielberg Almost Made This Video Game Movie Adaptation (Collider, 08/19/23) The Curse of Monkey Island System Requirements (Systemreqs) Where will Paco’s work turn up uncredited next? Let us know so we can grow the wall of shame. Sure, this is the definition of throwing stones from a glass house, but you gotta pass the time somehow. *credit added after some shaming from @Kroms **“Image via Lucasfilm Limited,” apparently

And who could forget... ?

yep it keeps hypnotizing her and is why she’s holding the audience hostage I think (I should know this) edit: oh I see there is what looks like an earlier version of the bear in some shots. Is that what you mean? The final game has the blue one seen in some images here.
