Great to see that both Frank R. Paul and, more recently, Steven Spielberg stuck to Warwick Goble's original design for the Martian fighting machines.

“Treachery had red hair and soft curves."
“The invaders were bent upon creating a new world in which trucks without drivers could back up and run over you; in which a giant machine could say, ‘Well, what railroad shall I wreck today?’ Holland knew all about it and figured he could straighten things out. But first he had to get out of the insane asylum.”
Genesis of the Terminator?
The clack of typewriter keys echo though a haze of cigarette smoke and bourbon fumes. That wiry, melancholic automaton sits hunched at a battered oak desk, its spindly limbs awkwardly elegant, with hands poised over a manual typewriter. Beside him is a tumbler of amber bourbon, and a cigarette smolders in an ashtray near a stack of scandalous manuscripts – titles like “Sin in Celluloid” and “The Blonde Who Knew Too Much.” The walls are lined with yellowed clippings and rejection letters pinned like trophies. A dusty fan spins overhead, stirring the smoky air as the robot stares blankly ahead, lost in thought or perhaps in the tragic poetry of its own programming.

Thought I should get back into old habbits. These are up for grabs.

Much of Startling Magazine's cover art was painted by Earle Bergey, who became strongly associated with the magazine, painting almost every cover between 1942 and 1952. He was known for equipping his heroines with brass bras and implausible costumes, and the public image of science fiction in his day was partly created by his work for Startling and other magazines. The robot cover for this, the January 1950 issue of Startling, is one of Bergey's most memorable works and was inspired by Edmond Hamilton's story "The Return of Captain Future."
“What will happen to love in that far off Day After Tomorrow? David C. Knight, editor with a New York trade publisher, agrees with the many impressed by ‘the range of possible subjects and situations’ in science fiction. The result is a unique love story from that same Tomorrow.”

Ross Beasley. Always a pleasure for him to tag along.
Eando Binder is the pen name of two science fiction authors, the brothers Earl and Otto Binder, who have a story in this issue of "Amazing" featuring a heroic robot named Adam Link. Their first Adam Link story was published in 1939 and is titled "I, Robot." An unrelated collection of stories by Isaac Asimov, also entitled "I, Robot," was published in 1950. So, Adam Link of "I, Robot" fame is actually the creation of Earl and Otto Binder, not Isaac Asimov, who is often credited.
