Covers I Love – Steve Jackson Edition

GURPS Time Travel

I have a lot of favorites, but my favorite favorite may very well be GURPS Time Travel. John Zeleznik outdid himself on this one, with a futuristic super-soldier facing down a cinematically oversized Triceratops. It doesn't hurt that the book completely delivers on the cover's promise. I got to work with the much-missed Mike Ford on this one. He was an enjoyable collaborator – heck, a fun collaborator – as well as a talented creator. I think of Mike whenever I see this scene.

Which, until I moved, was every day, because John sent me the original sketch and I had it framed on my office wall. I would take a picture and show you, if only I knew which box it was in . . . Argh. But it will show up someday, and it will once again have a place of honor and bring back great memories.
