Colossus shouldn’t have to fight dirty to beat these two.

The logistics of her hairstyle are more than I can deal with on a single cup of coffee.

“Enough with the cockle-doodle-doo, Space Rooster. You’re the Death of Sleep!”
I’m sure that’s how it went down.

I hear the first half of this book is all McCaffrey, but the end is Nye.

@Alice – Brava!

Why don’t we see Colossus teaming up with The B-52s more often?

The bird is her hairdresser, and she is not happy about her latest style.

Couldn’t they have just found a new voice actor? ‘cos this Big Bird just aint working for me at all.

The way I’m picturing this scene is that the woman is a corrupt cop who’s using police brutality on the alien guy she’s interrogating, and the grey guy in the back is a hero who’s just come across this and is preparing to intervene.
I wouldn’t be surprised if this is not what’s actually supposed to be going on, but then this art is incredibly cheesy, so there.

One doesn’t often see a woman choking the space-chicken, especially not in the street.

While this is going on, Rod Hull must be off securing some jelly.

Is the title referring to the fact that this cover is going to keep people awake at night, wondering where it all went wrong?
ISFDB reveals that this is another book that never got a decent cover.
Wiki reveals that the plot is as much of a mess as the cover.
Why “Anne” in the diamond, Orbit? Whyyyy?
@Lillie: I don’t think that hairstyle is achievable under natural conditions. That’s how you know it’s the future.
@Ray P: Mr. xnoob liked your comment best.

@Ray P et al: after “choking the space chicken” has been invoked, is there really anything more one can say about this cover?

“Sleep” is the name of the alien bird-thing, I take it. Damn these spoiler titles!
@GSS ex-noob. Checked Wikipedia. No kidding, it sounds like they ran out of plot halfway through and hit “Repeat”.

Ok fine, I’ll be THAT guy…She’s choking the chicken.
