Ryan Comments: Between the blurb which might or might not lead into the title and the indistinct if menacing illustration, this one really scores all the points. Also, the people in that crowd need to move, or the Chinese New Year Dragon Parade is going to run them down.

It’s a Two-fer Tuesday: “Earthman, Go Home” Party

Good Show Sir comments:

1. “Earthman, Go Home!” screeches the lizard creature.

2. “Earthman, Come Back!” We forgot about our scheduled maintenance.

Thanks to Roger McC for sending one in.

You might remember this from here.

Lillie Awesome Art Direction: Give me a little man, with a giant bird grafted to his head, and out of the giant bird’s head, I want a man’s head if human heads were shaped like potatoes, but upside down, and sitting inside that, I want a man, but with a bird’s head, and maybe make it look like the bird-headed man is shooting a bird out of his hand, which should also be holding a torch. Throw a bunch of rainbow people in a birth control pillbox in the background — it’s very high concept. We’re going to have to skimp on printing costs because we went over budget persuading Heinlein and Asimov to appear together, so don’t break your neck painting detail. Now, what say we make this a five martini lunch?
