SciFi/Fantasy Magazine Covers

Fantastic Adventures vol. 1, no. 4 (November 1939)

Futuristic flying machine but it still has turbo-props, it's weird how the imagination only went so far.

I like how the artist had to include some kind of detail behind the skyscraper to make us understand it was being vaporised, not just turning blue.

Original magazine: archive.org/details/Fantastic_

In the foreground a partly transparent aircraft is moving across the image, shooting a beam weapon down at a skyscraper which is disappearing instantly where the beam hits it. Fantastic Adventures magazine cover from 1939.

@SFFMagazineCovers the perspective is really weird on this one if you look at it for longer. The skyscraper might be a part of a scale model town
