Galaxy vs. Sabertooth

A perfect bound cache of poetry/art/photography, and fIlled to the point of bursting with heart/ atmospheric conflict, G/v/s showcases the different facets of a young man whose life is filled with the air of the omnipresent. At times grimey and utterly devoid of hope, William’s narrative voice clings to the unpredictable in matters of love, business, and friendship. With a tone that bypasses malice in light of unadulterated acceptance, G/v/s epitomizes the transcendental realist perspective- in that the book itself showcases the overlooked ability to not only acknowledge the barriers of the human consciousness, but through such analysis, learn to overcome them and find a sense of purpose within the new measures.

What else is there to say? (h/t Viergacht)

Hell yeah, laser-shooting sabertooths! Perfect for the sequel of Kung Fury.

Definitely very WTF. Technically, it actually seems pretty good though (the image is arresting if nothing else, although I can’t quite tell what the background is, and the typography’s better than most on here as well). The title’s not centered, though: that bugs me.

I’m sure the people at “Walking With Beasts” are delighted that their work was so… .

If we’re lucky, that part of the title is hand drawn art.

Alas, we’re not lucky. The As are identical. It’s a font.

Are you sure the description and the cover are for the same book? Holy cow! False flagging is no joke!

Well, I’m pretty good at deciphering jargon and double-talk. Let’s translate this baby:

A perfect bound cache of poetry/art/photography, and fIlled to the point of bursting with heart/ atmospheric conflict, G/v/s showcases the different facets of a young man whose life is filled with the air of the omnipresent. At times grimey and utterly devoid of hope, William’s narrative voice clings to the unpredictable in matters of love, business, and friendship.

Translation:

A college graduate who studied way too much post-modernist philosophy in college is now trying to impress you with this cover he slapped together from stock images and by regurgitating random nonsense dressed up in academic buzzwords.

I’ll try to be charitable and say the blurb writer may have intended that as deliberate satire or parody. Otherwise if these college kids are all insufferable posers, the future is doomed beyond recovery.

Positive Reinforcement: That Sabre Tooth (which is two words by the way, Sabretooth is that guy who likes to fight Wolverine) has frickin’ laser beam eyes! I think vs the Galaxy – it would win!
