This was an interesting article about the "invasion" of America by large Asian banks. Two of these old and established banks each took a different approach as they tailored their tactics for penetrating the American market. The interior illustrations by Kevin Pope took a humorous approach to telling that story. For the cover, my editor wanted something a bit less subtle, so I took a cue from Godzilla and had artist Chet Phillips work up a scene of a giant corporate "T" (for Tokyo) robot invading America, and not-so-subtly disrupting the city We weren't sure if the businessmen silhouetted in the foreground were welcoming the invader or about to run in terror... we left that open to interpretation.
