Don Comments: In the Future
- Your basketball shoes will be shiny.
- Your garage will have lots of random gages and tubes on its walls.
- “Dead Gopher with Habanero” will be a popular flavor of cat food, judging by the expressions of this guy and his cat respectively.

Tom Noir’s Art Direction: That’s a really nice painting you did for the Le Guin cover, but you know what would really sell it? Incorporating this photograph of my nephew and I at the Ren Faire. Don’t be silly, my mod seventies mullet-ponytail combo looks COMPLETELY medieval.

Many thanks to Tom!

Thanks to CSA!
