Do you have any cool illustrations you can slap onto this cover? Great! No need to maintain a single proportion or viewpoint, we need to print this IMMEDIATELY!

The way the woman and her giant floating head are mirrored by Dark Helmet and his big floating helmet amuses me.
...and you brought a knife to a bear fight. Great.
Speaking of the woman's giant floating head, is it just me or do the sides of her face not quite line up right?

>2 bam2001: Maybe she also lost a fight to the bear at some point. Or the guy.
Also, TWO introductions? Did Larry and Roger both lose a bet to Fred?
The guy in the middle looks like a chap who had 4 or 5 lines in either Doctor Who or Blake's 7.

Definitely Blake's 7!

>4 EndofDiskOne: Yes, I was getting big B7 energy from him. Low budget random bits from the Beeb's wardrobe stores. Some weightlifter/aspiring actor (to have those arms) who was able to grunt a few lines as "Barbarian Warrior".
(I'm pleased you agree!)
The women seem to be from an entirely different universe than everyone else on the cover. They're all flowy polyester, maybe Qiana®, with Breck Girl™ hair.
I'm saying this is so late 70s you can almost hear the disco.

Speaking of B7, I once was Jacqueline Pierce's minder at a small convention. What a very nice quiet woman she was, not at all like Servalan. It was in the late 80s so she was still PHWOAR as the men told me.
One could always find Terry Nation and the men at the hotel bar. The organizer (a friend of mine) had the wisdom to NOT allow bar charges to the room, which had bankrupted another B7 convention. The fans bought them plenty. Terry was a hoot regardless of sobriety or not.
