And women were all like “Meh”.

Looks like a late 50’s JFK with different hair.

Looks like an apocalyptic Pepto-Bismol ad.

Well he does look a bit powerless with that physique – but I might be underestimating the devastating power of his Atomic Genitals.

They were. . .
Anthropomorphic boobies!
There’s a theory that gas giants could be inhabited by balloon creatures filled with hydrogen. Now if they travelled in pairs they could be unstoppable – atomic genitals notwithstanding.

That’s a lot of crisis, and it’s a rather pedestrian effort for the 2000th book in a series.

At lot of needless graphics effort went into putting the “2000” behind the dude’s right hand.

Mola Ram, the early years.

Well, at least they came from Saturn and not from Uranus.

Surely Level 42 were mid-80s, not fin de siecle?

@fred: He looks more like Arnold Schwarzenegger before he sent for the Charles Atlas book.
@verylatetotheparty: Good show, sir!
And thank you all for making me laugh during the time of the beer virus!

None could withstand the power of their atomic crotch-fuzz!
Looks like a 6 year old got hold of the red marker at some point in the coloring process.
Are they supposed to be clones, or did the artist come up with a “guy from Saturn face” and they decided it was too much trouble to come up with a second, let alone third one?

Ran out of everything but red, yellow, and black paint, did we?
I suppose the colors might have been an attempt to get the punters’ attention since the artwork is so bland. Meh.
@THX: see above line for proof.
@Vlttp: I think the Atomic Crotch is causing the withering away of everything else. His legs are already gone and his muscles are small. Presumably the other two heads show a more advanced version.
Maybe that’s the titular Crisis? And Earth men are powerless because they’re worried it’ll spread to them?
@Adzel @Nomad @Bruce: yes.

They’ve all got a bad case of the Crazy Eyes.
July 22nd, 2020 at 4:32 am
Wait a minnit—are they the “They” or are they the “Men”?
July 22nd, 2020 at 5:39 am
@B. Chiclitz: they look a bit too much alike to be a cross-section of “Men”, even 1950s “Men.”
July 23rd, 2020 at 1:44 am
@BC: I think they’re They, or possibly Him since They look to be clones.
Also I thought the one non-red/yellow blob next to the title was a Viagra pill, which might go with Atomic Crotch.

Am I alone in thinking that this cover art is fantastic?! This was before people used computers to generate cover art and actually illustrated them the old fashioned way. I would love to have this piece hanging on my wall as I listen to Man, or Astro Man?
July 24th, 2020 at 10:24 am
@Simon W: Man or Astroman?! The perfect accompaniment to so many of these works of art! I must have listened to Experiment Zero a hundred times…

They don’t look like they’re gonna party like it’s 1999.
