    I didn't think it was--I thought it referred to some possible blemish of his career. Not having read the article, I can't speak as to the author's intentions. It could certainly be seen that way--"Many of the truths we cling to," and all that.

    Did somebody say. . .SPORTS?!?! \
  3. ". . .whatever had happened behind the scenes at InfoWars was so bad that Jones would rather take the worst possible outcome in the defamation suits than release documentation."
  4. To be fair, Jayne and Kara Thrace would make a really great couple.
  5. Yes, Fillion is a good actor, but to my knowledge he has not appeared in any Star Trek movie or TV series.
  6. Time to play one of my favorite mind games--recasting movies or TV series with Star Trek actors.

Babylon 5 is supposed to have a quarter of a million people living there. A quarter of a million. That's a lot. By contrast, the city of Peoria, Illinois has less than half that many people--yet Peoria has three major hospitals, several major industries (Caterpillar, Archer Daniels Midland, and Komatsu, to name but a few) minor league baseball and hockey teams, affiliate stations for all the major networks--none of which is apparent on Babylon 5. The only shops and stores I've seen on the show were in the Zocalo, which looked to me like a big food court. But aren't there any major stores or industries on Babylon 5? Not even a Buy 'N Large? Then there's the bit back when the original series was being produced, where Straczynski said there would be "no children or cute robots" on Babylon 5. Excuse me? A quarter of a million people, and no one brought their families? How do you build a community without the next generation to whom to pass it along? Are there no schools or playgrounds? Peoria has Bradley University, with over 5000 students. Babylon 5 has--what? Remote learning? Correspondence courses? Hopefully some of this will get addressed in the new series. (There. With any luck, this thread should get back on track.)

    If you were a pulp adventurer exploring the world in your exploratory zeppelin, this might be how you get down to the ground--
  8. That may be from 4th Edition BBB. Hopefully they'll have listed the author credits on the title page.

  12. True, but remember they're just average, everyday suburban folk celebrating Halloween--not full-on cosplayers. I do hope that Olsen and Bettany get Best Actress and Actor Emmys for this show. And if either Kat Dennings or Kathryn Holm could get a Best Supporting Actress, that would be really great, too.
  13. Guess which five-year old learned a new word.
  14. You might find some usable images in the Supers Image Game thread. There should be some public domain pics there, especially the clip art.
  15. I'm not sure what to think about this. The implication is that the peace failed--and that just depresses me.
  16. That's a heck of a note--I could have sworn Ward Batty coined the phrase "Marvel Zombie"--but apparently not.

    This is how most of us imagine a pulp magazine writer. . . You're not typing fast enough, bud.

    This was Henry Ford's second attempt to create a plane that would do for air travel that the Model T did for road travel--the 15P While it didn't work so well in reality, it can always work a lot better in fiction. I could see this as the personal "super-plane" of a cloaked crusader transitioning to costumed crimefighter, like The Crimson Avenger or The Shadow. Or it could be the getaway plane of a hooded mastermind. Or anything else you can dream up.
