Art Direction: A lizard… with a codpiece… fighting in World War 2 may seem like a crazy idea. But just put him in a work out vest and give him a laser gun. It will all work itself out!

Sinuous muscles. Not an ounce of fat. Once-piece revealing costume. Head-mounted microphone…

ONE-piece. Damned typos.

Last comment for today, I promise.
We’ve seen a lot of blue-hued covers this last week. Is it a seasonal thing?

I don’t think this prequel to the V remake would be any more successful…

Not to be nit-picky but it just says ‘World War’ not ‘World War 2’. To (mis)quote the Doctor ‘lots of planets have world wars….’

You’re really going to try and tell me that “Tilting the Balance†is a better title than “Balancing the Tilt”? Really? Really?

These space invaders were way down the list when it came to competence. Send investigative probes. Check. Armored knights height of military science. Check. This will be easy. Check. Send slow boat invasion force. Check. Don’t continue probing Earth. Check. Arrive in the middle of WW2. Wackiness ensued.

Look at that lizard in the background. He’s off-balance on his tippy toes.
Hm…”Tipping the Balance”…hm…
“What we in the Well, Basically Club propose to do is use SAM missiles fired from underground silos to knock the lizards over.”

I’m torn…
Should I nitpick about details…? (Lizard soldiers with no food, water or ammo…)
Or gripe about publishers squeezing every last drop of Significance out of World War II…?
Or make a sarcastic quip about how “astounding” the whole concept is (about as “astounding” as Rockets To The Moon)…?

“The astounding alternate history of alien invasion”…..wait a minute. You mean to tell me that there’s a non-alternate history of alien invasion? That’s the one that I would like to read about!

The lizard in back looks like he’s dancing. Coupled with Lizard Madonna in front, this is starting to look more and more like a music video.
