Good Show Sir Comments: I think it’s a tale of Merlin showing a boy Robin Hood his model airplane collection and time machine, but I don’t care enough to read it and actually find out.

Lillie Awesome Art Direction: Give me a little man, with a giant bird grafted to his head, and out of the giant bird’s head, I want a man’s head if human heads were shaped like potatoes, but upside down, and sitting inside that, I want a man, but with a bird’s head, and maybe make it look like the bird-headed man is shooting a bird out of his hand, which should also be holding a torch. Throw a bunch of rainbow people in a birth control pillbox in the background — it’s very high concept. We’re going to have to skimp on printing costs because we went over budget persuading Heinlein and Asimov to appear together, so don’t break your neck painting detail. Now, what say we make this a five martini lunch?

Good Show Sir Comments:
#1 It says “Cover design Lester, Larkin & Divers” on back cover. Took a three-man team to design an arse cover.
#2 OK lady but if you’ve never seen a man you’re setting your expectations up a little high.

FluffyGhostKitten Art Direction: Gimme a ripped blinged-out Viking lion-centaur blowing a hunting horn. Throw in a couple random moons and a giant pulsar, and we’re good. No, I’m perfectly sober, someone else stole your shrooms.
