I 100% believe that Crowley drew the picture and wrote the text, making Aziraphale seem like an intimidating badass so that other demons would leave him alone (not to mention, notify him if they’d interacted with Aziraphale at all so he’d know if he needed to step in), as one of his infinite acts of protection. 

So like...who made this image of Aziraphale?

He looks like so cool here. Intimidating, fearless, powerful, and wielding his flaming sword with a hard look on his face.

Was it Crowley and he's been holding out on us about his drawing ability? Did he have this commissioned and then submit it to the book. It was clearly published after he changed his name, so maybe?

OR does he just talk Aziraphale so lovingly and fiercely everyone's just like "okay, we got a badass over here"? How much authority or input does Crowley have on this interpretation of him? Is this how Crowley sees him?

It doesn't seem like Aziraphale interacts with other Demons. So like who else saw Aziraphale to 1) know he's got a flaming sword and 2) sees him as an intimidating beauty?

Or is this just incidental? Did some demon of Hell just go "I guess we have to fill space with an image. Might as well insert random Angel fanart here."

I love all these options!

Interviewer: So, Loki’s a weird guy. Tom: [Laughs] Yeah, let’s just put that at the bottom of the poster. Thor: The Dark World, Loki’s a Weird Guy.’
