Old Year Sum Up

Add comments

Happy New Year!

So, just wanted to do a little sum up of a few of the best covers we have posted and some personal favourites of the Good Show Sir staff. Just kidding, we don’t have staff, more like some sort of trained animal that has been taught how to sit correctly and not bite the children.

First, just a couple of thanks. To Justin Leego who faithfully does all the tags for the covers, finds out who the artist is and corrects any spelling/grammer errors I make about six hours after I post it. And to CSA, who endured an entire afternoon with me searching through the shelves of three second hand book shops over Christmas. We have quite the collection of covers to add to the site!

And thanks again to those who visit us here. We love to hear from anyone who comes along, so feel free to comment and you will be welcomed with sarcastic undertones!

One of our favourite covers:

Man I am so wasted right now... there is no rope.Click for orginal post

Another favourite:

God damn it, that T-Rex has got him another knight!Click for orginal post

Personal Favourite:

Stop playing with fireworks Tim and bloody shoot someone!Click for orginal post

Most under-rated cover, as voted for by CSA:

Blad women acceptable. And I can stand a man with four arms. But green fur!? Take this deamon! ah HA!Click for orginal post

Actually, that cover IS a classical work of art!I would touch it without protective gloves.I've seen worse. Far, far, worse.Interesting, but I would still read it in public.Middlng: Neither awful nor awfully goodWould not like to be seen reading that!Awful... just awful...That belongs in a gold-lame picture frame!Gah... my eyes are burning! Feels so good!Good Show Sir! (Average: 8.48 out of 10)

    Sos the Rope was just awesome. We’ve had a few covers where i’ve actually said “wow” aloud and this was one of them.

    Flint and Weber certainly set the bar high, hopefully we can find a few more during the year.

    btw i think We Few could be another cover by Kurt Miller who we’re discussing in the Watch on the Rhine thread. Sorry Kurt!

    another Kurt Miller cover Ruby Dice should have recieved more attention as well http://www.goodshowsir.co.uk/?p=60/ , again can’t fault if for it’s artistic content, but it still a bit cheesy to be reading on a crowded train.

    Sos the Rope has a Tom of Finland thing going for it.
