Exciting eggs

Not what you expect in your morning meal, and is that centaur more mammalian than I first thought?

The arrangement of the author's name is really only the second-most confusing thing to look at here.

>1 EndofDiskOne: Hm. It does give a mammalian vibe. Where would the teats be on a centauress - up or down? Sounds like bad planning on the part of Mother Nature.

At least she/it was smart enough to kick Faux-nan-with-the-funny-boots while he was down.

As far as the author, my guess it's two - Douglas and his Asimov-Robot-Stories sidekick, R. Mason.

It's easier to draw hooves than feet. Also, nice pixie slippers!

Is it just me, or does that look like the rear end of a fancy children's scooter there in the bottom left?

>5 bam2001: Yep, now that you say it, I'm seeing it too.
Hope it doesn't cause any terrible accidents. Besides the cover, I mean.

>1 EndofDiskOne: Can I get a "weird pecs" hashtag here? Not real sure about the left arm either.
