Doesn’t it tickle?

Yea, abominable snowmen are so cute when they are young but once they get old… sheessh

Missed TING! opportunity. Unfortunate look of ecstasy on our hero’s face.

Phil> Is that a TING! ? Or is it a little bit of the cover that’s come off? 😛

I’m dead serious when I say, if you put a moustache on that fellow, you would have the ULTIMATE Turkish cinema poster. Although, I doubt the special effect for the evaporating wall behind Yanni the Invincible there would be any good.

Are the lapels of his collar so high because his upper body is in a zero gravity environment? Oh I get it, it’s static electricity due to the little furry guy. Such amazing attention to detail on this cover!

From http://www.shoporium.com:
His name was Meure and he hired out aboard an alien ship to see the universe. There were ler aboard that vessel: transmuted humans who were partial supermen. Specifically there was a ler girl caller Flerdestar who was on a mission.
When Meure and Flerdestar were marooned on a world called Monsalvat, they were confronted by a planetary enigma involving time and space. Mansavat had a myriad of human species, all alien to each other, and all in awe of the Mystery that dominated their isolated planet.
When I read Meure and Flerdestar I can’t help but hear it in my head as the Swedish Chef from the old Muppet Show.

That’s not a knife. That’s a knife.

The ler birth was successful.
“Congratulations, sir! It’s a beautiful baby Yeti!”

rule 32: swords never cast a shadow

Say hello to my leetle friend!
No, really, say hello. He’s a ler and isn’t he just so cute?

Ironically, DAY OF THE KLESH was the title of Don Martin’s last cartoon.

I thought the Klesh was a punk band in Knightsbridge…

I’m not 100% sure, not having read the book, but I suspect that the dude on the cover is actually the ler. No idea who or what the fluffball is.
August 18th, 2011 at 11:46 am
I thought the fluffball was Admin’s new alternative to the sheephead for covering up rude bits.
And SI: surely that’s cover damage rather than a TING! The book’s previous owner may have atempted to simulate the missing TING! by strategic modification, however. Then offloaded the book once they realised the sword also had no shadow.

I think this cover art is a very early Mike Whelan.

Give me $1.35 and I’ll show you my pygmy albino trouser wookie

The book was supposed to be titled “The Day of the Crash”. But it was too late when editors later found out that Foster had a speech impediment.

I love the way My Little Yeti is standing in such an aggressive pose – you wanna make something of it, yeah?

Meditation: Anywhere
“You only need three things to feel comfortable meditating anywhere.
1) Always wield your sword.
2) Always have your pygmy watchyeti on your lap.
3) Use your ears to your advantage. Whether real or a result of an augmentation — surgical or costume technological — your huge ears can hear every spaceship entering the orbit.
Klesh or not, using these simple rules you will not be caught unprepared by your enemies.“

Cripes, my boots are leaking! Now they make this stupid noise when I walk: Klesh – klesh – klesh…
March 18th, 2016 at 6:27 pm
The Klesh? Do they have a new album out?
March 18th, 2016 at 8:23 pm
@Jon K.: Nothing new’s been released since since Kombet Rock
March 18th, 2016 at 8:33 pm
@Jon, Tat: They’ve released nothing but krep since ‘Rock the Kesbeh’

@Dead Stuff: somehow, imagining Joe Strummer with a South African accent seems almost blasphemous.

Surprised no one said this, so here goes:
The abdominal snowman.
July 27th, 2021 at 5:56 am
@Tor Mented – good show sir! Leave it to the rest of us to miss the obvious.
Perhaps the abdominal snowman is the outcome of his meditation.
“Once you have fully charged your abdominal chakra point, it will then manifest in the form of a very small Yeti…”
