EDITORS COMMENTS
- Startling Stories Science Fiction Magazine Cover (1939) This cover image from the October 1939 issue of Startling Stories science fiction magazine transports us to an alternate reality where invading intelligences from another world have subjugated Earth. The ethereal, otherworldly landscape is filled with fantastical devices and structures that defy explanation, hinting at the advanced technology wielded by these extraterrestrial beings. The Earthfolk, depicted in the foreground, appear to be undergoing a strange transformation, their bodies contorted and conditioned by the sophisticated devices that encircle them. The expression of fear and awe on their faces speaks volumes about their plight. The cover art, created by renowned pulp artist J. Allen St John under the direction of editor Ray Palmer, is a testament to the imaginative and thought-provoking stories that graced the pages of Startling Stories during its heyday. The magazine was known for its groundbreaking science fiction and fantasy tales, which challenged the boundaries of the imagination and pushed the envelope of what was considered possible. The use of bold colors and dramatic lighting adds to the sense of wonder and intrigue, drawing the viewer in and inviting them to explore the depths of this impossible world. The cover art is a visual representation of the limitless potential of science fiction and the power of the human imagination to create new and fantastical worlds. This iconic image is a must-have for any science fiction or fantasy art collection and a reminder of the enduring allure of the genre, which continues to inspire and captivate audiences to this day.
