US Esquire October/November 2024 : Andrew Garfield by Mark Seliger

In my opinion the second to the last photo makes a better newsstand cover and the close up black and white one could make an awesome subscriber's cover 😊
 
This photography looks incredibly dated, this cover and editorial does not absolutely look worthy of Mr. Garfield.
 
They made him miserable in these photos, he is 41 years old and looks almost 60!
 
This could have been, and should have been sooo good, and then they hired Seliger to shoot it. :blink: :cry:
 
These are not good photos at all and not at all a great representation of a very handsome subject. He looks tired and so dishevelled. Maybe it was for a role, but even so, big pass for me.
 
there's a cover with the last picture (b/w). its on my digital magazine app thing

This is the cover being sold at Casa Magazines. I like it. It reminds me of the close up covers of GQ in the early 80s only in black and white.
 
^^^ That version of the cover is the only tolerable image in the entire issue.

Whenever Norman Jean Roy isn’t helming the coverstory, this Esquire instantly plummets into a dusty, dull, dated aesthetic. Mark Seliger is intolerably dated and obnoxiously cliched. These celebs need to slap any photographer that suggests a screaming pose; That sensibility he’s deployed in the mid-2000s for John Varvatos and featuring some annoying person like Perry Farrell needs to be forever left behind in 2004, like Juicy Couture. (...Perry Farrell also gets a 2-page feature in this issue, looking like Caitlyn Jenner’s elderly sis with his brand new squeaky, shiny, tightly-pulled facelift.)

The b&w close-up cover appears on the newsstands and the color cover is sent to subscribers. I prefer the newsstand cover. The entire shoot does not look special in any shape or form. However, I prefer the photography and styling inside featuring comedian Hasan Minhaj. It is shot by Guy Aroch and styled by Nick Sullivan.
