The cover for Uncanny Magazine Issue 69, "Kuolonuni" by Broci: A femme-looking figure with blue-green wavy hair and red eyes stands with one hand atop the other, open palmed up, a blue-pedaled flower with yellow stamens floats above centered to their chest. On their head is a pale blue snake with red eyes curled like a circlet. Their sleeves are pink, and their shoulders have wavy, yellow feathers or hair attached to a yellow and pink high collar. Behind them, green lily pads crowd each other out in a black background. The whole image has a hand-drawn look, with the colors textured like watercolors on paper. In white text is the "Uncanny" banner, "March/April 2026," Issue Sixty-Nine," and the artist, writer, essayist, poets, and Uncanny staff credits.

Cover: Mushroom Mother of Us All by Paul Lewin.

cover for Issue 63 of Uncanny Magazine, art by Galen Dara titled "Blessed Universe." The central figure wears purple and silver priestly robes with a bright sun-like circle in the center of their chest. Splashes of dark purple criss-cross across the robes.

They stand in front of a portal-like arch of silver, and in the background purple splashes resemble gas clouds, light purple circles resemble planets, and bright light pinpoints with white trails resemble stars.
