The Astounding Covers of Astounding


by Paul Orban

First published in 1930 and still going today under the name Analog, Astounding has had many different names of the past 94 years but one thing that has always remained consistent has been the strong covers.  Below, for your October pleasure, is just a tiny sampling of the astounding covers of Astounding!

Congratulations to the Los Angeles Dodgers


Congratulations to the Los Angeles Dodgers, who clinched the National League Championship tonight and who will be facing the Yankees in the World Series!  It’ll be the west coast vs east coast and I’m not sure who I’ll be cheering for.  It’ll probably be the Yankees, because I’m an American League girl.

This will be the Dodgers first World Series appearance since 2020.  Even though neither one of them is my team, I look forward to watching the Yankees and the Dodgers battle for the championship.

Congratulations to the Yankees, the American League champions!


Start spreading the news, the New York Yankees are going to their first World Series since 2009!  They clinched the American League championship tonight, defeating the Guardians in Game 5 of the ALCS!

As for who the Yankees will be facing, the Dodgers have a chance to clinch the NLCS tomorrow and the Mets have a chacne to tie things up and keep the series going.  I’m hoping the Mets do just that because a World Series featuring the Yankees and the Mets just feels like a baseball dream come true!

Congratulations to the Yankees!  Good luck in the World Series!
