Especially liking that the t-rex’ arms are essentially MAN ARMS

OK, that’s it, these cargo cults are getting out of hand.

Jesus is on his lunch break. Will return to his crucifixion in a half hour.

Rejected cover for the little known children’s book, “Curious George Steals The Moon.”

It’s one of those covers where I’m thinking its not THAT bad, and then I notice T-Rex has man-arms and give it an extra star.

I think they modeled the dinosaur on Iguanodon…I think…it’s a little hard to tell.
@Bibliomancer: it’s not like he would have had far to go, they put him right in the middle of the salad!

It’s a nice cover in every way. Not to everyone’s taste, certainly, but still.

“One morning, when Jesus woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed on his cross into a horrible vermin.”

@ Dead Stuff – I didn’t notice that. Tell the mossy creatures to hang around. Jesus is paying a visit to the little savior’s room and will be back up on those logs in 5 minutes.

A breathtaking adventure in mind travel!!!
Hey look everyone… I’m mind travelling as I type!!! WOooooooo!

I agree with JuanPaul – it doesn’t seem that bad until you notice the little things. I also have to wonder about the title, which is perfectly fine…except for the exclamation point, which suddenly makes it seem like a children’s book. Maybe it is.
Having said all that, I’d pick it up off the rack if I saw it, at least to read the synopsis.

T.Rex is wondering “who took my saxophone?”

Very good comments on this one! I doff my hat to you all.

Is it a cover painting, or a photo of Salvador Dali’s tomb?
May 8th, 2013 at 4:45 pm
Yet another parade of weirdness. And for some inexplicable reason I want to know where they are going. I want to go with..NO!
Simple question though. What the heck is the guy with the trenchcoat and fedora doing with this bunch?
And you could tag this BEHIND YOU! AND YOU! AND YOU! Etc..

Silly me, just noticed the time. Obviously, it’s Miller time, at the bar where all the Englush meet. They used to deink in the hills, only now they drink in the valley.
May 8th, 2013 at 5:07 pm
Aaaarrgh! Rotten worthless touch screen! English! Drink! Stupid spellcheck! Is deink even a word? Damn wonky technology.

I thought you were quoting Chaucer or something.

This all looks like an aerobics class to me. We have Zelda the Iguanadon instructor having her class get their blood pumping.
“Move it you lazy homosapiens!!! Blast those gluts, blast them I say!! Last one to finish is my lunch!”
Neanderthal doing hamstring stretches (neanderthals had notoriously stiff hammies), a jai-alai player (possibley Mayan or Aztec), Emperor Chan on the weights so he can impress the “chicks” as he was the first to coin the phrase, private eye Dixon Hill doing side lunges, Mogli working with a yoga ball.

@Fea rofm usic—I think “deink” is a word; isn’t it the stuff they use to draw decovers with?

@B. C: I’m going to hunt you down and stab you in the face. 😀

Ever since I saw this yesterday I’ve had ‘Safety Dance’ running through my head.
