Dude! How fried does your brain have to be to think that shirt looks good on you?

Johnny Depp plays Ningauble of the seven eyes trans-dimensionally portaled to nineteen seventies California.

“…full of demonic intensity, on some level.”

Praise where praise is due, I like the author/title font!

The obligatory Blade Runner reference must be on the back cover.

That’s not a mustache, that’s a cleft palate of demonic intensity!

Internet 1984. They warned us!

Does the back cover have the anal probe?

“We have located the part of Depp’s brain that made him think MORTDECAI was a good idea.”

I am not at all surprised by this cover. After all, Philip K. Dick had three I’s.

Just like in the Wick series, Keanu threw himself wholeheartedly into the training required for the role.

We finally found him. The infamous Q!
He is dreaming up his latest conspiracy fantasy.

@fred: growing the extra eyeballs, surprisingly, wasn’t the hardest part.

Johnny Depp decided to look for more evidence and carry it around himself to fight the wife-beating claims. He might have gone a bit too far.
(Too soon?)
@Tor: Four if you count his middle name!

I got all excited about “Dick Week” before I realised it “Philip K.” not “Blade”.

@xnoob: Kindred, eh? I should have known it would be something out of the ordinary.
