Behold the "sci fi tarot"

a deck in which each card is done in the style of a golden-age pulp sci-fi novel

the ingenious creation of the designer Todd Alcott, who sells 'em online

Six images of the sci-fi tarot cards. Each one looks like a pulp sci-fi novel from the 1940s and 1950s. The first one is "10 of cups", and shows a 1950s-style family riding along in their yellow flying saucer. The next is "the king of wands" and it shows grim cartoon of a black and white man in a cape, holding a glowing green wand, set against a red background with, far in the background, a dark castle on a hill. The next is "nine of swords", showing a woman with a Marilyn Monroe style appearance -- dressed in a short blue skirt, blue leggings and white boots, holding a blue space pistol aloft, as she turns her head around to look at the viewer, with an expression of surprise; behind her three glowing red banks of computers. The next is "the chariot", and it shows a man piloting a three legged UFO across a rocky green surface. The next is "death", and it shows a gray cartoon of a family, dressed in 1950s clothing, walking away from us and towards a line of people that recede into the distance towards the base of a spacecraft that is pointed towards the sky; everyone is apparently getting into the spacecraft, and in the sky above is a ringed planet. The final one is "four of wands", and it shows a cartoon of a glowing red flying saucer that has landed on the ground, from several aliens -- each one has a large eye occupying their entire torso -- are emerging and waving at a crowd of similar aliens who gathered around to greet them.
