The theme of this issue of Empire magazine was that of the upcoming film (at the time) Public Enemies. This issue seems more cluttered than other issues of Empire magazine that I have analysed before, but still fits in with some of the previous conventions. Once again the main review/ preview is focused upon heavily with Johnny Depp being in the center of the cover, to show that the magazine writers want customers to take note and to get excited for a film that features one of the most iconic actors in recent years. There is, unusually, also a large block of pictures and text on the right hand side of the main picture as well. This consists of the various heroes in films that were also coming out, all of which are fairly popular in their own right as shown by the size of their presence and the cliched big red text, which once again tell s the reader to play close attention to what else is in this action packed issue.
