You mean Boston, the newly discovered moon orbiting Jupiter which can be clearly seen in the background…?

Commence obligatory hippies-and-drugs jokes.

*thinks* OK, which one of this lot was the actual author? Ira Levin, is that you? No.

They don’t even have the continent right. That’s not North America. That’s Europa.

Less than a feeling.

Boston must be such a thoroughly boring place that the book’s title can’t quite believe something interesting happened there.

My take is that this guy is having a bad dream about what to write for his PhD thesis in history…in Boston…from 2000 BC until the apocalyptic approach of Jupiter.

Jupiter is downside up.

Allow me to gussy up that image.
Is that Maude Frickert wearing a New England Patriots hat?

“In the TRADITION of Rosemary’s Baby…”
Yeah, yeah. Only an American would call imitating something that came out less than a decade earlier a “tradition”.
The Disney version would of course be labeled a “Classic” from day one.

Needs more demon muskrat.

“It happened in BOSTON? Man, I was so stoned I missed the whole thing.”

@Bibliomancer – Whatever it is, it has a monocle on a stick. An affectation which Donald Trump should adopt.

The ‘Cheers’ reboot wasn’t much cop.

The title makes it sound like someone’s in shock that anything of any importance whatsoever happens in Boston. In this case, judging by the cover art, I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say that whatever’s happened in Boston has something to do with why Jupiter is falling towards the Earth. At a guess.

@Anna T.: maybe it’s Deflategate. People there seemed to think it was Earth-shattering. http://www.si.com/nfl/2016/01/18/deflategate-one-year-later-tom-brady-bill-belichick https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deflategate

Goodness! The mephitic vapors are coming from inside that fellow’s jacket and trousers!

Hmmm, I didn’t know doves could suffer from flatulence.

That’s not where you take your pulse.
No wonder the guy looks like he thinks he’s dead.
January 21st, 2016 at 1:42 pm
Hey, maybe that’s not Europa or an upside down Jupiter behind him—maybe it’s Planet Nine!
January 21st, 2016 at 1:56 pm
@B. Chiclitz – More likely Plan Nine (from Outer Space)

@Bibliomancer—best movie of all time. Bela Lugosi died halfway through the shoot so the guy who replaced him keeps his face covered by a cloak through the entire second half of the film.
January 21st, 2016 at 5:20 pm
@BC, B’mancer: I never saw that one. It happened in Boston?
January 21st, 2016 at 5:38 pm
@DSWBT—San Fernando Valley, actually. Not that different from outer space.

I’m from Boston, and no, it did not happen here.
