Exactly where my mind went.

"I have an exceptionally large mind. Not that anyone listens"

On seeing this design twice makes me question where it comes from. Did somebody make an illustration for the books or how did this happen?

The design for the robot itself comes from the 2005 (not the 1981) movie. (trailer - Marvin appears at ~1:10)

But if you mean this particular style of image with this font and such, that I don't know - perhaps some stickers or tshirts or such became popular to share, it does look nice:-).

Nope I meant the robot. I only ever watched the 1981 movie though. I forgot that there was another.

Was the 1981 better than the newer one? I mean, still none of the movies come close to the sheer poetry of the book, but as far as a movie goes, is the former at all worth watching?

I liked all of the versions I observed which were in order radio play, 1981 film, books. I would find it difficult to pick a favourite.

Well now you can look forward to also trying the 2005 movie as well!:-)
