I chose this magazine cover because it is a great representation of the Gutenberg flow. The eye enters the page at the top left hand corner (the primary optical area) and is drawn down towards the bottom right hand corner (the terminal anchor). The text in these areas are bold and bright in colour, which draw the reader towards these areas. It is also worth noting that the barcode (a necessary but less important aspect of the cover) is located in a dead spot.
