Reminds me of what Professor Nakayama states in the BLTPS mission Paint Job: “Did you hear that? He almost pronounced my name correctly! That means he pretty much LOVES me!”
The solution is so simple that I find it hard to believe that no one has mentioned it. Go to the hardware store where they sell stick-on letters and numbers for a mailbox or house number. Buy a bunch of letter ‘K’. Peel off the backing and apply to the book cover. Problem is solved.
I’m always surprised when two different authors come up with the same theme — much less the exact same idea, drawing and punchline — on the same day.
