Thank you to everyone for this week's win ! Recently I was posting about Basil Wolverton and was thinking about his work. Inspired by Mr. Wolverton, let's post the most bizarre alien covers we know this week. The rules (as laid down by the adjudicator): Post one, and only one, classic cover that fits the theme of the contest. Cover must be from a published comic book or collected volume published before Jan 1, 2005. Covers must be posted before voting begins. Voting is on Tuesday August 18th, beginning at 12:01am PST and ending at 11:59pm PST. Vote by posting the name of the poster whose cover best fits the theme or that you simply like the most Put the name in bold. The winner of the contest is the entrant with the most votes after the voting period ends. The winner chooses the theme for the next week's contest. If you don't think the cover fits the theme, don't vote for it; don't post disparaging remarks about it. If a cover is more recent that the Classic time frame, kindly point it out and the poster can choose an alternate before voting begins. When posting covers, remember GCD (aka comics.org) doesn't allow hotlinking and if you use them for the source to post your cover, you will see it because it is in your cache, but no one else will be able to see it. Use a source other than the GCD for your image for others to see it.

^ I considered that one, lovely Wood cover. I will go with this nice little gem. I read somewhere Giordano did the cover? The dino, octopus, mouse alien combo is definitely strange.

Nemesis the Warlock, to me still the oddest alien design ever, drawn here by Kevin O'Neill.

No offense to our dear Connfessor but.... 7 foot tall green space rabbits and space porcupines are quite bizarre -M
