Does anyone know the story behind the artwork? Puffy does not look so good.

  Vaguely reminiscent of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creature_from_the_Black_Lagoon#/media/File:Creature_from_the_Black_Lagoon_poster.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creature_from_the_Black_Lagoon...

    I thought it was a nod to the statue of liberty at the end of Planet of the Apes (1968). I miss the days all OpenBSD releases came with a song!

      Tex is an awesome narrator. Thanks for linking! “Comrade Stalin says there’s bread on the Finnish line”

    Do you know this to be the inspiration for the artwork or best guess?
    • greyface- 3y ago
      I inferred it based on the image's filename, alt text, and visual correspondence to the scene described in the poem.
