EDITORS COMMENTS
by Manly Wade Wellman, published in 1944, showcases an intriguing and suspenseful science fiction scene. The cover art depicts a brave man, clad in a military-style jacket, holding a ray gun to the head of a terrified, skeletal being. His other hand reaches out to comfort a woman beside him, who firmly grips an illuminated cross. The eerie setting, with a dark, ominous sky in the background, adds to the sense of mystery and danger. Manly Wade Wellman was a prolific American author, best known for his work in the science fiction and fantasy genres. This particular cover art for "Startling Stories" represents the pulp era of science fiction, a time when the genre was characterized by its bold and imaginative stories, often with a focus on adventure and suspense. The image of the man using both force and compassion in the face of otherworldly danger reflects the heroic archetype common in science fiction and fantasy literature. The skeletal being, with its hollow eyes and bony features, is a striking contrast to the human characters, adding to the sense of otherworldliness and the unknown. The illuminated cross held by the woman is a symbol of faith and protection, suggesting that even in the face of the unknown and the supernatural, there is still hope and belief. The date of 1944 further contextualizes the image, as it was a time of great change and uncertainty, both in the world at large and in the realm of science fiction and fantasy literature. Overall, this cover art for "Startling Stories: Strangers on the Heights" is a captivating representation of the science fiction genre during the pulp era, with its blend of adventure, suspense, and the unknown.
