And they starts to have a row, she said,
“You can’t even see straight now,”
He said, “I can see straight, you don’t have to shout.”
He said, “I can see clear as a dye,
that cat coming in’s only got one eye.”
She said, “That cat ain’t coming in, he’s going out.”
Are the people in the aircraft above getting more of an eyeful than they want, or is this a deliberate flyover by pervs? Perhaps Discovery Channel After Dark?
Why is the dome set in a forest of aluminum Christmas trees?
Shouldn’t there ought to be, er… more in the region of the damsel’s knee? Lion-O seems to be lacking equipment.
@Ray P (6): That was, in fact, a Gaiman story. This would be a perfect cover for that. For an anthology compiled years before that? Notsomuch.
I would think C.S. Lewis would have been more appropriate than space sheep since this is “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” right? Ah, never mind it… seems we’re missing the wardrobe.

Lions and tigers and bare (naked ladies) – oh my!

Thank you Benny Hill.

“Lion rampant on a damsel starkers” is my family coat of arms.

I have to admit even I am offended by the lion-testicle-damsel-thigh conjunction.

What’s the little stage they’re on? Are they in a dome? Is that a forest or a city of skyscrapers? WTF?

In the ship in the background, there’s a guy looking through a telescope with this look on his face: 😯

By the looks of that hand, she might be in the process of transforming into some kind of salamander hybrid.

Geez “people”, close the drapes on that dome.

In the future, people will live in domes, making it all the easier to spy on people’s secret bestiality encounters.

Her underarm deodorant must be something special

@Tat – Her perfume is Gazelle No.5

BTW, I think his name is actually Harvey Lionstein.

I, uh… wait, wut?

And while we’re talking bad romance, here’s a terribad font I came across today. Top part of the cover is fine, but then you get to that last word…

Could be a man in a lion costume. Could be a lion in a human mask. Could be the type of cabaret show you might see in pre-Castro Cuba.

Is this a case of “You can’t see the forest for all the trees” or “You can’t see the city for all the skyscrapers”…?

@ex-noob A Neil Gaiman story you say? I’m not surprised in the least.
June 7th, 2018 at 12:52 am
@Ray P: “The Problem of Susan”. Available free online. And it’s very good, if a little disturbing at the end where — this…
I wonder if young Neil saw this book at an impressionable age?

It seemed at first that her “it’s not bestialism if they can talk” defense would work, but then they brought in the parrot.
