Distinctive

The single most memorable element is the huge green-and-yellow angular spacecraft with black outlines and a long needle-like antenna, tilted across a violet starfield. Second is the sharp four-point starburst explosion in yellow and orange below it, with two pale blue beam lines forming a giant V that points down into a dark navy triangle. Third, the extremely narrow tall proportion with a heavy dark-blue border and yellow pinstriping. Fourth, the black bottom score panel with stacked pale-digit windows and orange/yellow blocks at each corner.

Full description

A very narrow, tall backglass with a dark blue and violet starfield filling almost the whole panel. Across the top sits a horizontal banner of chunky yellow-orange block capitals, the readable word being GALAXY, outlined in darker red and sitting on a deep blue strip. The centre of the glass is dominated by a large angular green and yellow spacecraft or winged craft, drawn in flat comic style with hard black outlines, angled up and to the left, with a long thin white-blue antenna or beam trailing from it. Below and right of the craft sits a bright yellow-and-red starburst explosion with spiky orange rays. Two pale blue beam lines form a wide V or arrowhead shape converging toward the lower centre, framing a dark navy triangular void. The lower third is a dark score panel: a black field holding several horizontal rectangular windows with pale digits, flanked by small vertical white-on-black number strips and orange and yellow trim blocks at each side. Blue side borders with yellow pinstripe edges run the full height. Art style is flat, hard-outlined comic illustration with saturated airbrushed colour.
