    In reply to Borders Launches A Science Fiction Blog Of Its Own
    Hmmm, their website doesn't seem to be working at the moment. And lunadude is right, all they're offering is a couple lines of text that are devoid of any real substance or opinion. MEH!!! And what the hell is up with the name Babel Clash? Why would anyone choose a name for a scifi blog that invokes the christian religion? BAH!


    I'll stick with io9 thank you very much.

    @gorehound: I'm not sure I want to go to a url that contains both "BigMeatHammer" and "gallery". I'll let someone else play those odds, thanks.

    @chuffhoncho: It's ok, it's safe. Although, no offense gorehound, the page design can be comparable to the book covers themselves...

    The _The Adolescence of P-1_ cover ain't *so* bad. I mean, yeah, the typographic treatment of the title is ... well, very much of its time, I suppose ... but other than that, I've seen worse. The _Yellow Eyes_ cover, is *much* more painful. Reminds me of Rob Liefeld's so-called art in some ways. ("We must pose ... DRAMATICALLY!") I suppose it's intended to show just how alien the space chipmunks are - look how far apart they can hold their feet without sustaining severe groin injuries! They MUST be aliens!

    always love the tradition in SF/Fantasy book covers where the cover often has nothing to do with the actual book....

    Good luck on the new endeavor, Ed. Looks cool but it has been too many decades since I played RPGs, miss it though. Anyone remember Arduin Grimore? Loved those Phraints!
