Me (Richelle):

I've spent loads of time today thinking about this, and went through books 1-4 looking at the drawings for each chapter.  The man is certainly Mad Eye Moody, besides the eye thing it perfectly matches the GoF drawing of Mad Eye Moody in the chapter of with that name.  There was no picture of Lupin, so the other man can't be determined.  But if it's not Lupin, it's a character that's never been described to us, because it sure looks like Lupin to me.  I don't think the boy is Ron either, it doesn't match the pictures of Ron that have been drawn before.  He always has a lot more hair than that, and it just looks different.  The closest I could find was the picture for the chapter "The Dueling Club" in CoS.  I'm guessing that was supposed to be Justin petrified??? The few similarites could just be because it's the same artist, of course.

Me (Richelle) again:

Hmm, I hadn't even noticed that until you mentioned it.  However, if I zoomed in about 1000% (pathetic, I know) it becomes a lot more noticeable.  But I don't think it's a woman, it looks more like a dementor.  If you look closely you can see what looks more like a scull than a face, and the darker part you described as wavy hair could be the cloak of the dementor.

35 days!
