I’m debating whether to add a naked-blonde-with-pointy-weapon tag.

Leah Comments: I know it’s a tie-in, but this is definitely worthy of an Honorable Mention. That lettering is not actually black, it is bright orange metallic foil. I think it says a great deal that the picture is an accurate depiction of the featured aliens.

Leah Comments: Another Honorable-Mention-worthy tie-in. Working title: ‘Attack of the Fifty-Foot Fop’.

Joachim Comments: A French cat woman? There’s so much wrong with this cover.

Bibliomancer Comments: I don’t think it’s technically science fiction. But Lordy, is this a bad cover.

It’s a Two-Fer Tuesday — Psion Pspecial!

Leah Comments: A MALE protagonist, in a skimpy top and skirt, as well as 80s hair that looks like he copied it out of a porno mag. Bonus semi-transparent floating aliens, and trees(?), also semi-transparent, growing out of pipes.

Published 1982, 1985                                                               Thanks to Erika for sending in the other one.
