Unfortunately, looks like we're stuck with apples on the covers from now on. It will be. I guarantee it. I think they have a fetish for apples. Even if there is no apple involve there will be one. If they ever do a Wonderland DVD (which I don't think they will) I bet they will find a way to put an apple on that too. It's not that they have a fetish for apples. This entire series started with Snow White, revolves around the Snow White characters and so it makes sense that apples (the symbol of the Snow White story).

Or maybe it's trying to play on the Abrahamic belief of Adam, Eve and the Garden of Eden. Y'know, how the Apple is widely believed to be the Forbidden Fruit? Maybe it's subliminal messaging like "We dare you to give in to temptation and buy this DVD" or something silly like that. Yeah, it's about Snow White. The Abrahamic belief of forbbidden fruit is terribly misconceived because it wasn;t even an apple. That's other mythology that was mixed in like the apples of immortality frome Norse and Golden apples from Greek. I've personally always believed the Forbidden Fruit was actually the Pomegranate because of its role in Persephone's myth, but that's another subject altogether.
