Some peculiar takes on his work:


This Russian artist apparently thought "The Door into Summer" was a horror story.


Trailer park Rick and Morty?


Oops, we did a racism


We all remember the climactic battle against the skull-crabs in Red Planet, right?

And now, a book-accurate one

I remember the floating big-gun racists from GSS. Maybe some of the others?

I don't recall outer space, a demon cat, and earrings in "Door". Or giant crabs in Red Planet.

Farnham's Freehold is on GSS. Once again I am puzzled by the sign in the store window that seems to be for Space Food Sticks. (GSS-xn said it was a thing at the time.)

I didn't know that there were crab-clawed giant grasshoppers on the Red Planet.

At least, not on the "Red Planet" I know of. Maybe some other "Red Planet" in some other solar system....
