In between studio albums, Pink Floyd wrote the soundtrack for a French film called More. Instead I’ll ask: Do you recognize which issues each of the images come from? Let me know in the comments!

In his book Mind Over Matter: The Images Of Pink Floyd, Thorgerson explained that the idea for the ASOS cover was to represent the music by creating a swirling psychedelic collage of things that the band liked, which he says included Marvel comics. Thorgerson would end up becoming sort of a visual secret sixth member of the band, designing or co-designing all the artwork for the band during the rest of their recording career, with the exception of The Wall and The Final Cut. The album sleeve was designed by their buddy Storm Thorgerson, who volunteered after one of their other friends apparently failed to deliver. Wait, you don’t see them?

Pink Floyd - A Saucerful Of Secrets (June 1968) Image credit: Pink Floyd Here’s 15 times the band and the company referenced each other, in chronological order. Pink Floyd songs have been used in a number of Marvel film projects since 2016’s Doctor Strange, but believe it or not, it was Pink Floyd who started it - decades prior.
