Another pair of "turn-overs." I've used this pose and character a number of time -- I might even have posted several before on FurAffinity. But this one is the latest -- a bunny dressed up something like Atomic Betty. Turning the page over, and tracing the pose, I created a second bunny to dress up -- posted next.

Retro scifi is always fun. I wonder what ever gave rise to these kinds of costumes? Considering how space suits and crew clothing appears today, I wonder how they ever figured that open face glass helmets and skimpy outfits would be the wave of the future. Were they thinking too far ahead or perhaps taking and running with something they only thought they understood?
I suspect that the reason for those open helmets is that the actors had trouble breathing otherwise... at the very least, a fishbowl would fog up. My first exposure to such a helmet was in a series character called Space Ranger, in a DC comic of the late 50s early 60s called Tales of the Unexplored... I think. He even got turned to stone once!
The issue isn't quite as clear-cut as that. I can say I don't care for science-fantasy -- in which class I would put novels like McCaffrie's Dragonrider series. But it doesn't follow that I prefer nuts and bolts SF like Larry Niven or John Varley. What I look for in SF is a story that's strong on telling how unexpected and strange the future will be, and how this comes about through technological progress. (An alternative to the unexpected and strange future is the unexpected and strange alternate history.) Suc stories have to be highly original. Alas, originality in SF is as rare as it is anywhere else. Most SF is like all other SF.
It isnt entirely... though you do run into Post-Modern plots where nothing happens in any orderly or meaningful way.
Try "Julian Comstock - A Story of America in the 22nd. Century." At least I think that's the century. The author is Robert C. Wilson, a buddy of mine. It's his 17th. novel, more or less, and in some ways his best. It definitely has a story.

What? You don't like hairy armpits? Fie on you. Feminists would accuse you of unnatural tastes. The "natural" woman is fat, hairy, smelly, unattractive,and pushy, but you have to find her "beautiful" because "everyone is beautiful in their own way." Didn't you know that" If not, prepare to be called a "male chauvinist pig" a lot.
PS -- women have fantasies about handsome, chaming, witty, rich young men that are just as unreasonable. Somehow that doesn't make them "female chauvinist pigs," though.

A cartoon character. An ordinary, if perky, highschool student on Earth, she is called up to her spaceship to fight galactic evil by a beeping wristwatch.
