No problem, Plan 9 (From Outer Space).

author's comments:
here's my entry for the autumn society's upcoming east meets east show at AxD. the show is a visual exploration of japanese pop culture's effect on american pop culture.

my original pieces, (oh-so cleverly titled "cowboy" and "samurai") will be available as individually framed, very limited (only 2 each!) 10" x 20" prints.

i'll be attending wizard world philly all day on friday, but i'm going to try to stop by the gallery for the opening...hope to see you there!

Dude, that would make such a gnarly tattoo that I'm trying to decide where I want it done.

This thread makes me really happy, Jetee. It's full of all sorts of goodness.

Twenty (eight-and-a-half) years ago this week, the Space Shuttle Columbia became the first reusable spaceship. Its second trip to low Earth orbit and back again began on November 12, 1981, following its maiden voyage by only seven months. Seen above Columbia, 56 meters (184 feet) long with a 24 meter (78 foot) wingspan, is launched mated to an external fuel tank and two solid rocket boosters producing dramatic exhaust plumes. The solid rocket boosters, one on each side of the external tank, provide most of the thrust in the first 2 minutes after launch and are then jettisoned for later recovery. Supplying the main shuttle engines during liftoff, the external fuel tank separates after about 8 minutes. The largest shuttle element not recycled for a future flight, the external tank falls back toward Earth breaking up and descending into a remote ocean area. Still the oldest operating shuttle, Columbia is pictured here in June of 1992 rocketing toward a cloud bank on its twelfth flight. Officially designated OV-102, Columbia is fittingly named after the 18th century sailing vessel which became the first American ship to circumnavigate planet Earth.

The Walking Dead is probably one of the greatest comic books of the last decade,
so it was no surprise when AMC picked it up and decided to make a TV show out
of the '70s series. The Walking Dead follows the story of a group of that must band
together in order to survive a zombie apocalypse. Sure the idea itself sounds cliche
and anything George A. Romero has already created, but it’s so much more than that.
The Walking Dead focuses more about the entire aspect of survival, than the
zombies themselves. Sure they’re still a huge part of the comic and upcoming show,
but The Walking Dead focuses more on the human beings and their sanity as they
go through this new hell on earth.

First set photo of AMC’s "The Walking Dead"! Many of the people who have read
the comics should know what is happening in this set picture. I don’t want to spoil it,
but it’s actually a very touching moment in the comic and gives you a very great
feel for Rick Grimes' character.

Concept art for an iPhone game that I would like to make, based on the old Ed Wood's movie Plan 9 from Outer Space.

Heck yes.

[Jetée]

I have got to better learn how to "shield" my never-ceasing post-edits.
That 90-second window of opportunity seems ever smaller when
I keep finding more and more relevant info to add.

Back to our program:

[atomicsupermen.]

[Plan9]

You should never shield your post edits. I don't. Look at all the fun I've had over the years. I can hardly post a single line without editing it 19.84 times.

[Jetée]

Nah, we both probably have that touch of perfectionism trait, it's just I feel more at ease without small red liner notes of how, exactly, I was too slow (or depending, too quick) to the draw in submitting a post, sans all things in the order I ideally wanted it. I still don't know why I do this, if only to appease myself, 'cause I know not much of anyone else cares how the layout of any of my posts looks and "feels".

[Jetée]

that's using your handy-dandy skills, fair maiden ; hm, if I wasn't so amazed right now that I actually have a returning contributor here, I'd have to reckon that, perhaps, just maybe, does it look like the above image might actually be a screen capture from some obscure cartoon? Alas, the web-searching prowess I have so flagrantly been touting has failed to ascertain an answer (this time).

/conducts mopey face -- Oh! Just came to me; I haven't watched it in a few years, but for those that are more keen on this, could the above image actually be from an episode of The Venture Bros., I ask?

I believe this is as good a time as any to rattle off one of my "all-encompassing" posts:

[ring]

It's from something called 'The venture Bros.' an episode called Eeney Meeney Miney..Magic.
I have no idea what this program is. I stumbled across that image by searching for,
cowboy ninjas.

[Jetée]

Then my dignity and ever-burgeoning prowess as an everything archivist remains intact.
Thanks for the contextual follow-up, ring. The show is an adult-oriented animated series
(that means a slightly-higly-sophomoric-nerdery cartoon, with excessive violence, debauchery and $%^&! words)
building off the premise of such adventure cartoons of olde as Johnny Quest, and
The Justice League, as well as stories "borrowed" from popular pulp fiction magazines.

The weapon appears to be a WW2-era M1 flamethrower. Not a space gun, but definitely gnarly.

I think I finally remember it. .. watching it, that is. Perhaps the episode in which Samson, for one reason or another, loses his secret-spy/baby-sitting responsiblities, and has a dreaming delusion of his boss, and I don't know where I'm going with this.

Took a while, but I found it. Watch it or not, it says the episode will expire in one week's time.
