I wanted to try a slightly different style here, inspired by the science fiction paperbacks of the 1960s published by Avon, Ballantine Books, and others. Those covers were a mix of stylization and realism that often bordered on the surreal; I wanted to tap into that feeling by combining the more fully rendered figure and planet with the graphic elements of the "tesser" effect and the black "IT" shape behind the planet.
