Well we had Paris yesterday… or Blackpool… or Las Vegas… anyway, it’s a loose tie-in!

Many thanks to Tat Wood who sent these in ages ago but have been sitting around due to site problems. Which, I might add, are still being looked at – I swear!

Far, far, worse.Interesting, but I would still read it in public.Middlng: Neither awful nor awfully goodWould not like to be seen reading that!Awful... just awful...That belongs in a gold-lame picture frame!Gah... my eyes are burning!

    Le terreur invisible… the frustration of getting soap in your eyes.

    Gilles Novak… or Mel B from Bo’ Selecta?

    Milles fois… Are we there yet? We have to make land before the boat sinks.

    Piege dans l’espace… When hair extensions go bad.

    La nef d’Ishtar… What you never suspected about Warren Beatty.

    Jimmi Guieu. Pulpish writing and garrish OTT covers. Those were the days…

    La Naff d’Ishtar: ‘Let us conquer the New World for Gold, Glory and Christina Ricci’s Big Blue Palate!’

    I like to think that the sheep on the first image is saying ‘Plon!’ in a sort of ‘Blimey!’ voice.

    That horrible moment when you reach for a sponge with soap in your eyes… and realise you’ve grabbed Space Sheep instead.

    ALSO … Jimmy is completely perving at himself! What a sleaze!

    So that’s what Jonathan Littell’s disavowed first novel looks like! Although I persist in thinking of “The Kindly Ones” as basically sf too …

    la terreur invisible….The Entity – early 80’s movie about a rapey ghost supposedly based on a true story?

    #1: The tingle tells you that the shampoo is working!

    #3: That’s a pretty blurry shot of this cover, but is it just me or is that woman rocking some rather elaborate nipple piercings?

    The tragedy of Cover #3 is that the art director cropped the jolly figurehead. Of the whole crew, only he looks happy to be out on the water! Everyone else is so sedate, like a Gustav Klimt model…

    The blue gnomes have one oar each yet none of them are rowing.

    @AR: Actually, you could subtitle covers 1, 2, 4 and 5 with that remark.
