Historical? That must be why Carl Sagan is beating up a yet to be identified person.

Future-Cluedo: It was Carl Sagan with a bicycle chain, Eric Idle with a tyre-spaner and Patrick Troughton with a SAM-6 missile.

@Tat: Good Show Sir! You win.
The victim there resembles Nicholas Courtney a bit, as long as we’re on a Who theme.
The blurb isn’t too effective, is it? “This guy is great at historical stuff, so read his SF!” Non-sequitur much?

Good going, @Tat Wood. Although there seem to be a bunch more missiles coming out of the sun(?): or are they spaceships?
(Speaking of the sun- or Jovian planet – is it rising from the box with the eye in it? Because it looks like it’s rising from a horizon way above the actual horizon).
@GSS ex-noob: the giant eyeball has been streaming all five thousand episodes of “Asylum World” – it’s the epic historical future SF drama you just can’t look away from!

Don’t you hate it when you buy an electrifying novel… and the socket isn’t compatible with EU standards?

Incoming phalluses. Is this happening in Second Life?

@Bruce: Maybe it’s not a sun or a planet, but a decorative light atop the TV. Possibly lava lamp-esque?
@Francis: That idea causes the artwork to suddenly make sense. GSS.
@Tat Wood has been on a roll of late, winning many internets.
