This Q magazine is unlike the other ones and very unique due to the image and the masthead. In the image, the man is using a guitar to look as if he is smashing the masthead. The masthead is cracked, looking as if it's been smashed. This gives the immediate appearance of the man looking to be a 'bad boy' and being rebellious. This gains more interest to the magazine as it isn't a usual thing Q does.
The first thing that stands out in this cover is the masthead and the red dont around the cover. Red is a powerful colour and brings attention quickly to it.
The cover line ''Matt Bellamy is out of control'' links to the image and together portrays bad behaviour. Instead of a large cover line ''Matt Bellamy'', it used the band name Muse. This is probably because more people would recognise a band name, rather than one of the people in the bands name so more people are going to gain interest. The cover lines are on each side of the cover page but the main cover lines are on the left. On the right side, the only cover lines are under a subheading 'Plus'.
