WWW:  You’ve made a solid start here with your choice of cover image. It’s a powerful building to focus the reader’s attention on and really creates a serious tone for the magazine. You’ve attempted a range of clear cover lines which seem to match the tonal goal of the piece with these aligning with the text lining the bottom of the cover. Your writing is formal and definitely matches the style needed for the magazine. You have chosen a “star” to build your narrative around that can be used to discuss the new book idea of the brief.
