Here’s what Miki Montlló had to say about the poster :
“When I got the proposition to choose a fantasy/science fiction poster, I had no doubt: it had to be Dune. The richness and vastness of Frank Herbert’s universe has been interpreted by many different artists in the last decades, and I wanted to explore my own point of view about it. One of the most obvious references was David Lynch’s movie, but I wanted to keep distance from it and stick to the novel. This is why I went through a lot of islamic and ancient art, and I combined it with my comic and animation influences trying to, somehow, transmit part of the mysticism that the novel has. The decision of using gold ink was related to that, I tried to think about how would a design like that look in a temple of a lost ancient culture. Also, the motto was important: “fear is the mind killer”. The protagonist of Dune keeps repeating it during the book, and to me, it is part of the core of the message of Dune.”
