Especially if you like intricate plotting and a modicum of proofreading...

Took pic of it in Half Price Books (yes, a hardback for $3.99) but still can't figure out how to upload those images.

I tried doing the img tag thing with my original photo, and it didn't work. Mine's even in better focus!

For all the intense bursts of automatic arms fire that goes on within these covers, you would think that an occasional ammo case would be a good idea.

>3 GSSex-noob: Nice. Are you using the img src="picture url" format?

EndofDiskOne: well, the gun in back seems to run on batteries, but yeah, it should be a concern for the guy in front.

One thinks they'd both be a bit concerned about the whatever-it-is in the background exploding and sending chunks of rock in all directions: perhaps this picture captures the millisecond before they're turned into chunky salsa.

>5 bam2001: I tried cutting and pasting the code you gave me, even.

It's embarrassing, I used to code websites with raw HTML in the early days.

But less embarrassing than this.

Do they have face shields on those helmets, and if so, wouldn't it be a good idea to use them with all that debris flying around?

Dude in front seems to have caught the Space Madness. Maybe he used up all his ammo b/c of that. His footing looks to be not the best for using a big projectile gun; that thing's got to have some recoil. But as @EndofDiskOne said, that's probably his last round.

I hope the woman isn't salsa-fied, she looks to have more sense.
(insert your own political joke here)

>6 GSSex-noob: Is that a woman? In your higher-resolution photo, they seem to have five o' clock shadow. Perhaps it's just a guy with luscious lips. (Or it could just be a lighting effect.)

>7 bam2001: It could be stubble, but look at the eyelashes and also the fingernails. Especially the maybe-it's-Maybelline lashes.

There's not much likelihood of that person being non-binary, after all.
