Joachim Comments: Girl with strategically placed stars (of course). Chola eyebrows and bleached blonde hair with walking shark with gill piercing/oops, I mean a chain-leash…. And she has claws of course — see, the cover is derived entirely from the TITLE!

Yet again proving magic simply knows what to cover up.
So… walking her clawed shark… that’s got to be an euphemism.

Nothing wrong with a few moles, even starshaped ones. But when your skin blemishes are actually lifting off your body and orbiting you, it may be time to consult a dermatogist. Remember kids: sun tan is skin damage. Always use sunscreen!

Behind you!
The shark has an arm. The lady is missing an arm. Thus does the cosmos achieve balance.

The Jaws that Bite, the Claws that Catch and the prudishness of stars.

If Starz did “The Jetsons” that would be Judy taking Astro for walkies.

vintage45 — “Interesting book about a future society. The main character looks down on women as mere playthings and cannot see any of them as viable human beings. Society is based on mass consumption and and all things exotic. An intriguing book.
It’s English title is:â€The Girl With A Symphony In Her Fingers.—
OK, so I guess it’s NOT about a star-spangled girl from a desert planet spaceport offering to let gullible tourists photograph her Totally Real Honest-to-God Shark for money.

@James I don’t think you can generalize about ALL stars being too prudish, when it is clearly the blue ones that are the ones doing the vital covering up.

Albino with a claw for a hand dosen’t sound too attractive until…

I love me some Frank Kelly Freas but … helluva way to spin a Jabberwocky reference.

So here we have a white wannabe Storm impersonator (judging by her hairstyle) wearing nothing but a few blue spangles for cover-up, who is also likely a conwoman – and she’s dressed like this IN THE DESERT. Why yes I do think she’ll be wanting some medical attention soon enough, what with that and the land shark she’s leading about on a leash.

Hey, be careful with this cover! We don’t wanna give Lady Gaga any ideas!

I can only assume from the juxtaposition of the girl and the title that she must be a Jabberwock, and we must then beware her. I guess that would make the shark a Frumious Bandersnatch, and must be shunned.
Pretty sure it’s not a Jub Jub Bird.

We have that one blue star because the censor bandersnatch.

@Tor M—Best pun of the year! Left me burbling in the aisle!

You think maybe it’s because she rejected his tumtum tree?
