There is absolutely nothing wrong with this image; I'm only posting it because 322 people have sent it in so far and it's getting hard to navigate my inbox. It's totally fine.

that's just wrong... me first?
No problem here, he just had a bad motorcycle accident a while back and ground his cheek bones off. GEEZ...
wv: goysting
me 2nd!
THE EYES! THE EYES! They're majorly effed up.
He can kill you with his mind!
He has that "I WILL RAPE YOU" eyes and not in a sexy way. They photoshopped his face pretty bad.
LOL OH NO'S!
He looks like a highly-detailed action figure.
He looks like Hitler!!!
Yep, absolutely fine, move along.
too much concealer/make up on the face?
It only very vaguely looks like him. If his name hadn't been plastered on the cover I may not even have guessed that it IS him. (Supposedly.)
OK... that almost-but-not-quite looks like he closed his eyes and had eyes painted on the lids, as is sometimes done to give the impression of a statue in TV shows and movies.
It's just those custom contact lenses. Move along.
Is he still selling the angry young man schtick?
This obvious PSD makes him look like he's in serious need of cheekbones! (Perhaps Priscilla Presley's plastic surgeon can inject a little somethin'.)
I thought Eminem was dead. Or maybe he IS and that's ZOMBIE EMINEM on the cover!
He's creeping backwards into the uncanny valley somehow...
It is wrong because of the manipulated eyes! The light can't reach there in this kind of scene and also, even the post processing is well done, it seems very unnatural..
Totally fake to me. Easy money out of a bad photo.
His whole face - eyes, nose and mouth - is pointing in a different direction than his head.
There's nothing wrong with his face, they just didn't hide the fact that he's a Goa'uld from the Stargate series. They ALL have weird-ass glowy eyes.
ears. I mean... the EARS!
Could someone tell me how they even do this? I mean, they have the head, why even touch anything, except the color/levels?
Are they cloning parts of his head to create new facial features? Are they cloning from HIS head? So baffling!
The face is a train wreck. But what do I know? Maybe that's his face.
what the hell happened to his head? did it get sandwiched between two lorries???
It's fine if he normally has super-scary alien-looking eyes...
he now looks A LOT like Schwarzenegger.
OK... that almost-but-not-quite looks like he closed his eyes and had eyes painted on the lids, as is sometimes done to give the impression of a statue in TV shows and movies.

I particularly like the way he manages to turn his head to his right, and yet keep all his facial parts (eyes, nose, mouth, eyebrows) facing STRAIGHT AT YOU! That's a talent I wish I had, right there.
Oh, wait...
Thats why people should first study drawing before go into any sort of design and do any photo retouching.
Anyone else notice a striking similarity to Ra from Stargate?
His ugly tattoos should have been photoshopped. They're... ugly.
(?)
He only LOOKS like Rasputin. Really. Wait...maybe it was cheaper to just dig Rasputin up, and take HIS picture, rather than Eminem's?
of course, eminem is an evil alien cyborg - this explains so much
Maybe they shopped the pic to match his talent...
Not Ok...Now I'm totally going to have nightmares for a week! Definitely looks like they just moved all his features to the right.
Hahaha! Well I think it's deliberate that they made it look retarded by trying to half-morph him into Arnie. Hahaha but its still funny :P
omg... I can't even look at it, it's so disturbing.
why would they need to do that?
Looks like he's been taken over by a Gua'uld.
I don't like it, but it's obviously on purpose - they're making him look like a cartoon character. I saw some other photos of him and they've done that to his eyes in all of them.
It's still awful mind you - what a terrible idea for a cover.
@Serena:
I just spit beer all over my screen, best description ever.
Looks like a wax museum piece of some random Eastern European young adult male. If that's really Eminem, then they really did a good job of covering that fact up, except for maybe the name at the bottom.
What about the arms?? They look completely unbalanced to me - and I don't think it's a perspective problem, is it?
He has that "I WILL RAPE YOU" eyes and not in a sexy way. They photoshopped his face pretty bad.Please, enlighten us.
What os the sexy way of saying "I WILL RAPE YOU"?
hmm.. "I WILL RAPE YOU.. sweety."?
WV: Zandi... like Ghandi, but with the undead lust to eat your brains.
I'm glad Snowroller said that because I don't have a clue how to spell it.
Surely they could also have photoshopped his trousers to cover his shorts too. No matter how many people attempt it, wearing your trousers around your arse makes you look like a prick.
Come on people, it MUST BE deliberate. Look in the right corner on the top: The Punisher comic inside featuring Eminem. It's probably supposed to be unnatural.
Am I the only one that thinks the skull on his torso looks more fake than the face??
eye see the problem with this!
He looks like Matthew Lillard.
...He looks scary!

@Stef : I think you're right, 'coz the skull isn't at the centre of his torso.
(Look at his pectorals' line)
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
*pant pant breathe breathe*
*deep breath*
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
Jesus...his eyes...they want to kill my soul...
And what's u with the alignment of his ears?
yes, the whites of the eyes are too white for that kind of lighting.
It's here too:

The just used his face again...but his eyes...creepy!
Hitler :DD
thats the natural eminem, he's an action figurine!
you guys, he's supposed to look like the punisher comic. it's intentional.

I thought Eminem was dead.
Just his career.
He looks like a doll.
I don't know why everyone says he has a dangerous or scary look in his eyes. His whole face and body and everything looks sort of scared to me. I don't understand.
I do think that his face was airbrushed a little too much and his eyes are squinty and too dark, but other than that, this is no photoshop disaster; it's just a picture.
I think people are willing a PSD on every picture they see, Aly.
No he hasn't really got a skull tattooed on him and no his eyes shouldn't glow but he is supposed to be The Punisher isn't he?
I'm more concerned about why he's wearing a backpack and attempting to shoot himself in the side. Whats that? The props dept. thought it looked a bit like a shoulder holster? Oh, I see.
I was really hoping this would show up here. It's just fucked up beyond belief.
The eyes are terrifying
Nice pictures! I've bookmarked this webiste! Thanks!

Wow. Scroll the image up slowly uncovering the body. Move across the chest, up to the shoulders.. neck, chin, everything looks normal, scroll up some more so everything above the tip of the nose is still covered and he is still human... Once you uncover the cheekbones, or where the cheekbones should be... it all falls apart and he is Lizard People. It's like XXLs PS lab minion cloned out any and all blemishes or shadows they could see. And then they realized there is no depth in the eyes. But forgot that depth is usually caused by good lighting with appropriate shadow detail. I think this is also a case of blame the photographer as much as the PS zombies.
I guess I'm the only one that thought this looks like Arnold Schwarzenegger's long lost brother?
If they were going for a comic book look...maybe they should have actually gone a little bit farther.
There's definitely something eerie with the eyes.
I do think he must learn not to move his head while the photographer is taking the pictures.
This Eminem, is he really the missing link between Adolf and Arnold?
He kinda looks like a cyborg ....
You gotta admit there's something about his eyes - check this out: http://www.spiegel.de/fotostrecke/fotostrecke-42152.html#backToArticle=622910
I see the problem, Eminem actually has blonde hair. That's hilarious.
so intense.
They've totally added too much white to his eyes, bad Pshop'n
i wouldn't have recognised him if there wasn't his name written there!
It looks like they copied his right eye and pasted it on the left, flipped. Maybe his original eye was half closed because of all the drugs he was probably on at the time.
His forehead is kinda weird
the FOREHEAD
What the hecks ???
even the children can make it better.
