Jim Holloway’s covers for the the 3 books in the 1st edition of Paranoia are pure gold. In a game where literally everybody is out to get you, Holloway interlinked each of the covers.
It’s like Rock-Paper-Scissors. Their subjects each only have a portion of the whole picture, and all are monitoring somebody else. A fight is only moments away.
Easily one of my favorite RPG artists, Holloway was prolific in the old school days of the hobby. I’ve profiled his work before.

I love this edition of Parnoia, and Holloway’s art is a big part of it. I was also a rare fan of the skill trees.
