Look at that talon! Maybe we need an “above you” tag?

I immediately concede that there are many sharper eyes than mine in GSS world. Yet I defy you all to make linear perspective sense out of that blue creature’s leg alignment!

Well, it makes a change from unicorns. Sorry, UNICORNS!
October 4th, 2016 at 2:12 pm
Surely the sequel would be Huon More Time?

Huon – a noble gas invented by Norton.

These comments have been a Huonormous success.

This is so damn addictive….
Huon is the Loneliest Number
Another Huon Bites the Dust
Huon Toke Over the Line
Ok, Ok I have no Huon and I must pun! I’m done. Huon and done, that is.

Not to be confused with Huan the Hound of Valinor.
Review. More of a synopsis. Huon be a busy busy boy.

Original 1951 cover.

1980 cover. Now that’s a Huonormous horn.

He’s got a blue Shetland pony with an enlarged head and rainbow dragon’s wings.
He also seems to have the tattered vestiges of a Laura Ashley curtain handing from his waist, which would trip him if he ever got into a sword-fight.
I contend, therefore, that this cover was based on original tableau by an eight year old girl in 1981 and that the sequel has a Cindy doll driving her brother’s Palitoy tank over a poster of Shakin’ Stevens.

The seventies had a Lone Ranger doll complete with horse. Huon could be repurposed Tonto.

He’s probably wearing the fabulous cape to distract from the poor winged horse’s deformed legs.

He’s thinking, “wait, did I turn off the oven?”

‘Look out, Huon! The planet Jupiter is flying straight at your head!’
‘Wha…?’

The cover was of course recycled from from the album “Classic Rock Vol.6 — Performed By the London Symphony Orchestra”, released by K-Tel in 1980.

@AR: I had that one as a gift from my parents. My favourite was ‘Born to Be Wild, But Not As Wild As My Horse’.
