Roy, the cover is great - but yeah, why is the bar code not out of the way in the corner somewhere? Who controls where it goes?

 

[Roy1]

I asked Andy the same question. His answer was

Best place for it I thought.

On the phone he added that he felt it didn't obscure any important detail in that position. You will have to judge that yourself.

A bloody good cover for Black Static's 13th issue.
Sorry I don't seem to be able to get the thumbnail to display but the link works.

A wrap-around for Iinterzone 225 and the last for IZ from Adam Tredowski for the time being. 9653

A feature on Interzone's 2009 cover artist, Adam Tredowski, along with before and after images showing how the masthead and cover text were set to fit around the art.

Dave Senecal's cover for Black Static 14.
As it was completely unreasonable to expect Dave Gentry to continue as sole artist, issue 14 has cover art by Dave Senecal and internal illustrations by Ben Baldwin, Dave Senecal, Daniele Serra and Mark Pexton. DG's static and iconic fly will continue to disturb.

Interzone 226 is out now with two stories illustrated by Jim Burns in the issue
Plus Warwick Fraser-Coombe's cover art is the first of six connected images which, by November 2010, (IZ 231) will build up into a much larger tableau.

That's a very nice cover, Roy - all the best with the new art and content.

 

[J-WO]

Have to say, I adore Fraser-Coombe's work. Unique style. I may well subscribe soon...

I went ahead and subscribed. I used to get IZ from my local newsagent but they stopped doing it- have missed them ever since.


Great covers on that link, BTW. That laser blast through that bloke's stomach made me wince to look at it!

Thanks, Roy - one of the covers shown in that link was for Exploration Team, by Murray Leinster - a story I first read about forty-odd years ago and had completely forgotten about. I went looking for it and, to my delight, found it in a free e-book under the title of Combat Team...

Planets of Adventure by Murry Leinster, edited by Eric Flint & Guy Gordon - Baen Books...

Great story, IMHO, - it brings back happy memories of searching the library for this wonderful thing called SF that I'd discovered...

 

[Roy1]

Glad to help and thanks for subscribing. J-Wo. Distributor hasn't paid TTA recently so at least it gets some income that way.

Have fun with these folks.
