Click for full imageZycrow’s Art Direction: Yeah your epic future city background is nice, but there’s not enough yelling. I heard they yelled a lot in the Civil War, so draw some of those guys in there. And make sure they are REALLY YELLING!

Do we lose our bottom teeth in the past, the present or the future?

It kinda looks like they are in the same city as yesterdays cover. Maybe they too are angry and the people in the plaza!

To me, it actually looks more like “angry yawns” than yelling.
April 5th, 2011 at 6:30 pm
Maybe they’re singing?
April 5th, 2011 at 7:14 pm
Those faces explain why “the past must be avoided…at all costs.”
April 5th, 2011 at 7:19 pm
If they’re singing, it must be the last song from “Rigoletto.”

It also reminds me of Reynholm’s silent scream:

It’s pretty cool that they have building-sized Dyson Air Multiplier (TM) fans in the future.

In the 22nd century, illegal “breath-down” duels became immensely popular.

A whole world of Phil Specters? The mind boggles.

Egli è là !.. morto!..
oh sì!.. vorrei vederlo!
ma che importa!.. è ben desso!..
Ecco i suoi sproni!..

We all know how Phil Specter usually settled an arguement.
Also. Buildings like THAT usually invite people to try and fly through them.

“Damn it, future me! How could you become…a fedora wearer??”
“It’s ironic, you fool!”
The blurb may appear unusually incoherent, but IIRC Haiblum stories are largely propelled by dream logic, so it probably fits.
April 9th, 2021 at 1:26 pm
Nitpicking 101 – The letters in Haiblum aren’t quite evenly spaced.

“Kerning? Don’t they make glassware?” – the cover designer, probably?

Am fascinated that despite the disparate hair colors, the chaps have exactly the same ‘stache.
The author’s name looks really awkward, particularly the H perched on the pointy top.
April 10th, 2021 at 7:05 am
@fred: in retrospect, trying to make the author name and title into the prow of a spaceship about to fly out at the reader was over-ambitious. Orthographic projection is hard enough without brining in kerning issues.

Yeah, okay, why not?

@Bruce: I thought they were going for the cheap early 3D effect from B-movies. Popping out at you. I can almost hear Count Floyd saying “Really scary, huh, kids?” (SCTV, Thursdays at 9)

In their later years, Hall and Oates had a terrible breakup.
