He has a cummerbund but no shirt. It’s as if he expected what’s either a firework or a peculiar tree-frond to pass his waist while he was playing charades.
You sure those are actually meteors? Because they seem to possess propulsion, which allows them to change direction, which means they’re probably not meteors.
Those are definitely fireworks. Which hardly seem appropriate to the subtitle. Now, they might be fireworks of a variety named Meteor. Or Comet. Or Mutant Dandelion.
It can’t be reasoned with. It doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead. (Also you can’t punch it.) It’s rocket powered celery!
@DSwithBT—Ya got me, pard! Actually the real problem is that I attended Whatsamatta U. in Frostbite Falls, Minnesota along with Bullwinkle. I suspect we partied too much to get a really good education. 😉
@ GSS ex-noob – Mutant dandelion is the first thing I thought of when I saw this cover….Which may or may not be what the artist was going for, but in any case he/she did a great job depicting it.
@DSWBT: Perhaps he should have Looked Behind (or Around) Him before being sucked into the black hole. Maybe the mutant dandelions herded him into the black hole.

In honour of the 100th BEHIND YOU! tag. (Yes, we count everything.)
April 19th, 2017 at 12:37 pm
Back cover, BEHIND YOU!
April 19th, 2017 at 1:57 pm
@Tag Wiz—It really is the Universal Answer to All Questions©️.
Where’s my shirt?
“Look behind you”
Where the f**k am I?
“Look behind you”
What’s in this stupid book?
“Look behind you”

A terrifying experiment! The Man with the brain of a Labrador: he hated Bonfire Night too!

“Tales of Science” Let me spin you a yarn that will chill your Bunsen burner.
April 19th, 2017 at 2:23 pm
FOUL! He isn’t looking behind himself.
April 19th, 2017 at 2:24 pm
‘Look behind you.’
‘Where behind me?’
‘By Arthur J. Burks!’

I can’t wait for the 100th Sir Mix-A-Lot cover. It’ll be butts coming out the ass around here.

Mr Burks deserves a classic pulp cover for a classic pulp writer.

@AnnaT: maybe the gentleman is an enormous black hole bending their trajectories with his massive spacetime curvature.
April 19th, 2017 at 7:51 pm
@DSWBT—I once had a massive spacetime curvature, but luckily it straightened itself out.

@BC: your lack of gravity lens itself to mockery. 😉
April 19th, 2017 at 9:28 pm
@DSWBT—That’s ‘cuz I majored in mookery. When you pass a gravitational lens before a mook, it becomes a mock. 😉
April 19th, 2017 at 10:40 pm
@BC: you majored in mookery? Where did you get your degree?
*SETUP*

@DStuffWBT—Why, Trump U., didn’t everybody?
April 20th, 2017 at 1:46 am
@BC: no, LOOK BEHIND YOU!
I think you’d better get your tuition back, you’re missing the easy ones. 😉
April 20th, 2017 at 2:23 am
It may be a trial run for ‘Look Around You’.
Thanks, Arthur.

@BC: Well, you should get yer ass in gear and we’ll trow back some keggers and boilo at the ‘DC or hit the weed like a champ.
Point, set, match. 😉
April 20th, 2017 at 4:17 pm
@DSWBT: As I understand it you can’t see black holes. Maybe he’s a planet?

@HB: Mutant dandelions would fit under “fantasy”, I suppose, fulfilling part of the subtitle.
April 26th, 2017 at 1:16 am
@AnnaT: begging your pardon, but can you see anything below the event horizon cummerbund?
