Happy Good Riddance 2017 and in with a New Year. This is the beginning of our ninth year here at Good Show Sir and it seems like barely nineteen years have flown by. And we have a whole 15 months to plan on something really special for our gala 10th anniversary. And a 10th anniversary means a special gift for all … let me look that one up … ah tin or aluminum! So next year we’ll celebrate with tins of spam and cans of Boddington’s for everyone at the gala event. Look for your invitation in the email spam folder.

On the plus side, we welcome some new friends to the madhouse, GSS ex-noob, Tor Mented, Raoul, Longtime_Lurker, and many, many, too many more to mention. Flashback Fridays have become a run-away hit (with the staff). But don’t think we’re sloughing off here because you get that extra cover back on Two-fer Tuesdays and we get to sneak out the door early on Liquid Lunch Thursdays to enjoy our three-day weekends. Our staff has also proposed we introduce Bank Holiday Mondays each week but we are still focus-grouping that idea.

On to the honours. First, the top rated cover of last year:

… which seems like cheating since our demographic can’t seem to get enough of the Old Dick. Highest rated cover not a Blade book:

We asked GSS Admin for his favourite and he shouted through the locked door “anything with tits on it”:

And we asked Tag Wizard’s for his chosen favourite from the year and he said “Hot Stuff”:

You know what I love when admiring the female form. If only they’d put on a robe, a death mask and pick up a scythe. Man, if we draw a women like that. Why are you looking at me like that guys? Don’t tell me you’ve never thought of it before. No? Really? Oh.

Thanks to CSA!

Imagine this. The cover of the book, on the cover of the book.. wait for it .. being struck by lightning and going on fire! Don’t worry about drawing another cover on the cover that’s on the cover.With this we will blow peoples minds.

Jose Comments: Everything about this cover is perfect (in a very wrong way); a spangly shirt, a sentient cactus and a lizard with its ‘hands’ on its hips.

Good Show Sir Comments: This cover is so shiny that everything looks black unless you photograph it at the right angle. And then you notice that everything is embossed. The title is embossed. The authors are embossed. The car is embossed. The horse head is embossed. The fox-girl is embossed. It’s like bad cover art Braille for the blind.

Diggler Comments: Nothing says Agent of Chaos better than Ming The Merciless, dressed in a naked man print gown playing with marbles.

Erica’s Art Direction: Weird sea horse creature. Check. Scary-looking sword. Check. Hot warrior woman. Check. Leather Vest. Check. Pants. Uh, what? You wanted me to draw pants?

Farquarson Comments:I don’t know what bothers me more–the artwork or the title. I hate shots from inside someone’s mouth; it reminds me of the, “Dentist” scene from Little Shop of Horrors. On the other hand, calling your book “Sucks & Blows” is an absolute GIFT to any critic worthy of the name.

Extra points go to the photo of a computer screen! Thanks Farquarson!

Frank Comments: It’s hard to tell which ones are the Martians in this picture. They all look like some of that forgotten science was pharmacological and hallucinogenic. And if you get too close to that guy in front, he’ll help you understand what a bad trip is like.
