Does CPG accept/want back cover artists for cover credits? Like on https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/fear-agent/24/wnrslp ? 2 people have subbed Skottie Young for cover artist, but he only did the back. I told one person he should remove it, before I found an indicia scan that said skottie did the back cover. maybe add a 'back cover penciler' choice, for all the flip books etc, so the subs don't noped?

We will not be adding the back cover artist to the details page. There is already enough confusion on the cover penciler vs the cover inker and colorist. This would add another layer of complexity that isn't worth it for the handful of comics with back cover artists. My suggestion is to put it in the issue Facts area

figured. I wasn't asking for me, I don't submit back cover artists, but some people do, and since we can't see the back cover, subs get noped for being wrong. so now I can point people to this answer.
