How to Make a Cover

I have never read Fables. I've read many good things about the series, but I've seen the interior artwork, and I don't realy like it. However, James Jean's covers blow me away, and this is the perfect example. Apparently, he shows the creative process for some of his stuff on his blog, and if you click on this link, you will see the whole process for the cool cover accompanying this post. Enjoy!
