@fred: At least he has ten fingers, even if they are unevenly distributed. Unlike the crabby damsel, who has lot of top and not much bottom in terms of raiment.
@Ryan: it’s been a long time since I read this one, but the finger distribution may be correct; the story’s about people (and small animals) whose bodies and minds have been mutated by prenatal exposure to radiation during space travel. Our Hero’s power is to be forgotten as soon as you leave the room, which he uses to bang hot chicks.
So the Awesome Galactic Future still has Brazilian waxing. Ridiculous grooming and clothing double standards continue for eternity. Even during the Desperate Struggle… against proper capitalization, I guess?
Is she a mute? So she can’t tell anyone about Handsy Man there, and the kinky sex (for this is a Piers book) he’s having with her on their tiny boat? I hope the shoulder critter (good call on the shoulder mammals, @Tom Noir) and the eldritch shell (GSS @Raoul) aren’t involved. o_O
Last thought: she’s liable to shoot her crotch in rough seas.

His hands are lopsided when it comes to fingers.

Has anyone made a rigid rigging joke yet? Because heh; rigid rigging.
July 9th, 2019 at 2:23 pm
I am ALL for muting Anthony… :p

@Lillie – More like frigging in the rigging.

@Biblio – and that’s one heck of a case of crab she’s caught.

The book that dares to ask the question: what if ‘Life of Pi’ had been filmed by Troma in the 80s?

You know it’s the eighties because Billy Zane has hair.
@tat Troma would have the cat chew that guy’s head off

She’s going to regret wearing that holster against bare skin when she gets chafed bloody.
July 9th, 2019 at 5:12 pm
I’m not sure which is worse. Eighties hair or the idea of an amphibious sail-powered tank. Just kidding, it’s alway eighties hair.

Not counting the damsel, of course, just how many moons are there on this cover?

Somebody get that man a blind date with the woman from In the Cube! They can bond over their shoulder marsupials.
July 10th, 2019 at 8:10 pm
She is fainting because the crotch of her bodysuit is pulled way too tight

I just have one question…Is it a full mast? 😛

You need all the hands you can get on a skiff.
