Ever heard of this before? I haven't. How come there's not much on the net about it? An hoax?

I'm not sure it's exactly a hoax... maybe it's a mistake... nonetheless, it **is** fake.

These covers were featured for the alternate universe in the 'Fringe' TV series... a bit of fun for the discerning eye of those who watch the series (which I do).

Here's a write-up featuring images and the truth of the matter:

In fact, the original webpage referenced in this string is making a bit of a joke... Google translated the French which indicates the tease in the last paragraph:

There are those who even claim that there are alternative versions of these series.And why not another reality, for that matter? What did not hear, gentlemen, ladies!

It's a gag, not exactly a hoax.
