The Still-Cool Classic Covers

The Dead Kennedys: Plastic Surgery Disasters (1982) If one photo illustrates why Eric Reed Boucher chose the stage name Jello Biafra, this is it. The DK singer's moniker is meant to expose the hypocrisy of junk food affluence (Jell-O) with mass starvation (the short-lived African nation of Biafra). Mike Wells won Press Photo of The Year in 1980 for this image, called "Hands," of a starving boy with a missionary in Uganda. The photo was entered in the competition without Wells's consent by a publication that had sat on it for five months. Wells was not amused, being against profiting from the suffering of others. -- JH
