Astounding vol. 20, no. 1 (September 1937) I think whoever scanned this one must have cranked up the saturation because there's no way these colours survived since 1937 but hey, imagine the effect on the audience back then.

Creepy no. 73 (1975) I absolutely love this one. The airbrushing is terrific and the composition and movement are great. If I had a note, it would be that I have no idea how big that space ship is or how far away, because everything's so clear. But it's space, it would be!

Weird Tales vol. 40, no. 5 (July 1948) Did they not know what unicorns looked like in 1948? Or wait, is our current view of unicorns whitewashed and woke and everyone should know they really have a horn down by their nose.

Weird Tales vol. 20, no. 5 (November 1932) Absolutely love the dynamism of this, lots of drama and movement. At first I thought there was a bigger boat behind him but that's a ragged sail. The boat looks vaguely Norse, is it just me?

Amazing Stories vol. 3, no. 7 (October 1928) Somehow it doesn't seem like a fair right? That plus those evil eyes mean I'm on the side of the lion.

Creepy no. 114 (1980) To me the strangest thing about this thing is the colour of the space suit. Is this the fashion in the future? I like all the creatures though, great inventiveness on the part of the artist.

Weird Tales vol. 38, no. 2 (November 1944) I don't like the style, but you've got to admit the whole image is intriguing. Alien or demonic invasions aren't often accompanied by a band.

Amazing Stories vol. 12, no. 7 (December 1938) Wow, I'm tired from trying to explain this thing in the Alt text. But I always do Alt text, where's my cookie? Seriously, always do Alt text people. Even if it's crab-with-snake-arms Alt text.

Worlds of IF (December 1969) I like this style, if only because of nostalgia for the 70s. Is there a name for this kind of abstract, super-saturated artwork?
