About this image
Vintage pulp sci-fi cover depicting a heroic man with a futuristic ray gun facing two cartoonish orange aliens on a rugged alien landscape, as a startled woman in a red outfit runs in the foreground. The scene is set under a starry sky with a large planet and rings in the background, evoking mid-20th-century space adventure and retro-era excitement. This artwork blends bold colors, dynamic action, and classic pulp typography to attract fans of vintage science fiction.

Absolutely marvellous, down to every last detail, except ...... no need to include my name, my friend, but appreciate it all the same 🙏

Well, that's it for today for me. But if you want to... - athough, I think this would be a different QT, about 50s Horror Comics

Thank you very much! But, what do you mean? We wrote that story together for that mag, remember? 😄
