Folks, maybe it's just my imagination, but all these great covers for Planet Stories seem to have something in common.
I can't quite put my finger on it what it is . . . but if I did, I'd probably get my face slapped.

What did you think got us into sci-fi? The robots???? _________________ There comes a time, thief, when gold loses its lustre, and the gems cease to sparkle, and the throne room becomes a prison; and all that is left is a father's love for his child. |

Trekriffic is referring to a name on the 5th cover from the bottom, in case anybody is wondering.
That happens to be the cover that I couldn't resist painting "high heels" onto the lovely lady who's being molested by the Venusian ape. I disliked the flat shoes the artist put on her.
They just weren't very sexy.
