Good Show Sir’s Art Direction: Look, just get Jeff the door man, take a picture of his bald head and slap eyes on it. I have to think of everything round here… what did you even go to art school for?

Rachel and Thomas Comment: Fun fact! Megalatemeskephalesigakertomesephobia is the actual Greek for the fear that a large decapitated head is silently sneering at you.

MisterBOB Comments: I imagine if this art was released as a poster, thousands of ten year girls would buy it, because they know that real magic glows, all the time, day or night.

Yes another year has passed and we have been through a lot. There’s been a overall disappointing 1000th Good Show Sir post, and a few cat people… oh and some real world stuff but who cares about that! I am of course kidding about our special 1000th post, it was excellent, well thought through and certainly wasn’t rushed. I do want to say a special thanks to the Tag Wizard, he’s been a real help over the past year! His skills are excellent and highly sought after so please continue to suggest your own tags to give him more work!
Once again no one has topped the ever strong I Sing the Body Electric, even with Chinese Good Show Sir making web imps to screw around with our delicate voting system.
2014 brings our 5 year anniversary and hopefully we’ll have something fun and actually well thought through! No promises though!
So here are some excellent covers to sum up the year! We’ll be back on Monday 6th Jan 2014 posting as normal, so that’s whenever we can be bothered!
This years top rated cover:
The second top rated cover:
The Tag Wizard’s pick of the year:
And the cover that of spawned the infamous, “The Comments that Came to Sarnath,” incident!
