Magazine covers typically feature a large eye-catching main image that often covers the masthead title, along with cover lines, limited colors, and information like the issue date, price, and social media links. The main image aims to attract readers with direct eye contact using a limited color scheme, while additional details provide identifying information and positioning statements.
