There’s no single big catastrophe here, just a bunch of small unfortunate choices. (I’ve never read a book by Edgar Winner, but I love his brother Hugo Winner.)
No huge catastrophe? Not even a cartoon thumbing for a ride on the Courtney Campbell Causeway?
With that prominent sign, I hope it’s significant at least…
I just have two questions:
1) How hot is it outside?
2) How black, blistered, and nasty are her feet?
LOL the author got an award from the Mystery Writers of America and forgot to list his name!
Say something positive. Hmmm. Epix Drive-In Theatre is running Cool World this week, live action with cartoon character Holli Would (Kim Basinger).
Is the “Edgar Winner” supposed to be a byline, or a faux tagline, as in “Edgar Nominee?”
And is she supposed to be hiding a joint or a ciggie behind her back? Is that what’s smoking? Or are we supposed to infer that (gods help us) she’s “smokin’ hot?” (Or….like misterfweem pointed out, are those her feet burning up?)
I was thinking Edgar Winter for the byline. Because, he’s like groovy, man.
She was a M’eh kind of drawing until I got to the feet.
I assume that is when you burst into laughter. Proof that feet are hard.
She’s not bad, she’s just drawn that way.
PosRein: Her hair is a nice color.
Positive comment: I always did like those old Winner Brothers cartoons.
He decided not to pick up the bikini-clad hitchhiker. He could sense that she was a shallow person with a serious farting problem.
This cover doesn’t work for me: the mixing of cartoon and photo just makes both look worse. Besides, the background photo adds nothing except a bit of boring local scenery.
Well, this is obviously an LBC “Winner”! 🙂
Warning! Toon Town Prison ahead. Do not pick up pseudo-human hitch-hikers.
