Don’s Art Direction: I want a seriously bronzed (think gallons of Man-Tan) hero on a gryphonish thing with wings growing out of his butt.

Here son... cut out all these random pictures and put them together. We'll get our cover that way!Click for full image

Hakan Comments: I picked this up in Picocon 29 in London today. Cost me a grand total of £1. Interestingly this was mainly before the hippy ages so I am not sure what they were smoking.

Well... where I come from... southern gentlemen are considered aliens!No larger image available

DaveFromGP Comments: As if the creature in the star spangled thong isn’t enough, I find my eyes drawn to the creature at the rear: “What are you gonna do? I’m a giant bat, bitches!”

Dude... I thought chasing a naked women couldn't get stranger... look at that guy dancing on rubbish!Click for full image

Vincent’s Art Direction: So here’s what I’m thinking. A man and a woman in a landfill. I want the woman tastefully nude, so have the man covering her naughty bits even though they’re standing about twenty feet apart. Lastly, have an army of giant preying mantises coming over the hill.

Shades of Gray

So... Can't help but notice you don't seem happy with my redesign of your space ship...Click for full image

Nanoalchemist Comments: The first 49 shades of grey apparently involved space furries. And giant furry based robots. And a bubble helmet, so you know it’s in space.

Look out dearest, here comes a man with better eyebrows than you.Click for full image

Clay Comments: This junior-high rendition of what seems to be a mad scientist and his platinum-haired babe — along with their webbed victims — has absolutely nothing to do with this book. Bryant is a very literary writer with a New Wave bent.
