If you’re a proud member of Joss Whedon’s loyal army of fans, then these fictional album covers designed by computer game concept artist Joey Spiotto might be just the thing to decorate your apartment’s walls. “I was always a fan of old vinyl art of children’s music, so I wanted to incorporate a retro feel,” he explains. “I’ve never really had a chance to design an album cover, and when I started thinking about what would be a fun illustration to do for Serenity, I thought since music was such a strong component of the show, that an album would be perfect.” Click through to check out his original effort, as well as additional work from the series, including pieces inspired by Buffy, Caprica, and Dr. Horrible, all of which are available for purchase as prints in his Etsy shop.

Did Whedon do Battlestar? I was under the impression that wasn’t the case…
Nope, Whedon didn’t do BSG/Caprica, although Jane Espenson (a frequent writer/producer for Whedon) worked on them.
For some reason, lots of people are under the impression that BSG and Caprica are Whedon shows. They’re not. When Caprica was canceled, I was bemoaning the fact on my social networking profiles, and one friend of mine said, “I’ve never seen it but I really like Whedon’s work.”
Huh.
Also, these 1960s vinyl covers are all really cute, though the BSG/Caprica one should be replaced by one for Angel, or possibly Dollhouse (I swear that show doesn’t get enough love).
For what it’s worth, “All Along the Watchtower” would’ve been epic to see on the BSG record, lol.
