Definitely not up to the level of the original artwork in several aspects, IMO.

I actually like the new one better. Something about the Wizard in the old cover always threw me off.

Art is subjective, I know, but I agree with you. The old cover has a neat concept, but the execution of the original is off in small ways that eat at my soul.

The new one seems very cluttered. The old one had a clean presentation. At a glance the action is apparent. With the new one, you have to stare. And what you get: Farrah Fawcett at the top, and a warrior on the left whose body posture does not properly convey the delivery of great force downward with a mace... Oh well.

I hear orc blood splatter will do that . . .
