Classic vs. modern SF

Still prefer Asimov, Heinlein and Clarke to the goldarned lit’rary stuff being published as science fiction these days? Ever try to put your finger on why?

Ian illustrates in a single picture what would otherwise take a thousand words, which I’m sure he doesn’t have time to write. Click the graphicals tab at the top of the SFScope homepage for more fun examples.
