Buccaneers of Venus – Weird Tales January 1933 Pulp Cover

On the cloud-swept streets of an alien Venusian city, a near-naked warrior leaps from the back of a two-headed horse-beast, red cloak streaming behind him, lunging toward a crouching reptilian adversary armed with a spear. The exotic architecture looms in acid yellows and purples behind the combatants. This cover illustration for Otis Adelbert Kline's planetary romance serial captures the swashbuckling, Edgar Rice Burroughs-influenced adventure of Golden Age pulp science fantasy at full throttle.
