Good to see the editor demanded a still of the most pulse-pounding, nail-biting scene of the movie for the cover.

Observe the poise of the lifelong soldier. Like a cat about to pounce.

And the director said, ‘Dennis, this scene is going to guarantee an Oscar nomination for the both of us.’

Nothing quite says SF like a man in white overalls languidly standing in front of some rocks. (I mean if they were Kirk’s Rocks and there was a Gorn lurking in the background, then maybe we’d have something.)

Seems like hands and feet are hard to photograph as well.

… and as I remember the 1987 release schedule, the ‘ultimate battle’ was against ‘Dark Crystal’.

I like how they spread the blame across three different writers.

What is that thing on the ground, behind and to his left? It doesn’t look like the random debris scattered about the rest of the cover. Is that a disembodied three-toed clawed foot about to strike? Should someone whisper “behind you!” to him? Would it matter? He seems to have given up.

He looks like he was despondently kicked out of a disco for being badly dressed.

@Juan Paul: the dance-off is about to begin.

Ah, the novelization of the screenplay based on the novel. How can this not be good??

If he had a conical hat and some face-paint it’d do for a hypothetical Circus World film too.

He’s wondering how he missed the part in the script where he helps Louis Gossett Jr. give birth.

@JP – That scene must have just happened. See how “stained” his scrubs are?

One human…
One alien…
One only allowed on the cover…
@Tom: The novelization of the movie based on the story. Even… better?

No, no, no. Where are the rickety spaceships? The distorted aliens? The messy planet- or starscapes? Sorry, but this hardly looks like “science fiction”, more like “wardrobe malfunction in 80s-era club”.

@ Ray P (from the *A Way Home* cover): the same thing seems to be true for Val Kilmer

@biblio I thought he has soiled his spacesuit after seeing the killer rabbit.
