My mind slurred on itself while reading this and I read this first as “sup, hummus”.
(Sorry, what’s funny about this? I want to get the joke.)
My guess: The robot on the cover looks like a bro with the sunglasses and the gesturing.
Guess it was a stretch but there is a popular book by Asimov called “I, Robot”, this version looks like a bro.
Going to swing an miss on a few. Just trying to make a sci-fi meme a day using golden era sci-fi art and themes. Personal challenge and I’m bored at work.
Also passively trying to teach people about these artists and books via Details in original post
I definitely appreciate what you’re doing. And that is funny, pointing to itself. I thought there was another reference there I wasn’t getting.
Asimov is great I especially enjoy the foundation series, prequels and all and the Caves of steel series.
I have yet to read the empire series, and I have started on I, Robot a few times but it didn’t really catch.
