Ha! Um yeah, that Santa coming in on his paraglider! The thought amuses me.

Just think how prepared we were for disasters in our own world. Even though we saw the hurricane coming toward New Orleans, we did nothing to strengthen the levies. Sometimes you just get caught off-guard and have to be reactive since you weren't pro-active. And this emphasizes that type of situation.

Thanks so much, Felix! I don't know what my mental age is, but I do know I feel quite in tune with all internet friends in their 20's and 30's.

Sadly, I expect the media to lag far behind on this. No do I have much confidence in orthodox science or status-quo history.

The wrist bands or bracers that both Captain Barometer and Hyperspace wear were invented by Captain Barometer, and the 2nd generation of that tech was worn by his nephew and original sidekick, Hyperspace.

Hi, Dustin!

Titanium Tom is more like the Hulk but with an extra green bile effect. Gauge's secondary power (to pick the weak point in any opponent or structure) goes great with a gun or karate chop.

As far as the Ancient Astronaut Hypothesis goes, I'm on the fence. Much has been written about the Anunnaki and their parallels to the Nephilum, and about their possible creation of modern man through genetic wizardry. I can't say I fully subscribe to it, yet I can also say I'm sympathetic to the idea. Ancient history fascinates me.

The big alien was created for this scene, but I like him. He's named Enkidu, after Gilgamesh's adventuring partner in the "Epic of Gilgamesh." It's also a play on the Anunnaki, who by some accounts were alien overlords. Thus, it makes sense that Enkidu is not a new type of Gray, but a Anunnaki hybrid. (Yes, this the weird type of stuff that rolls around my brain all day!)

Well, yes.

In America, we wait for disasters to happen before we do anything about it. We knew the levies weren't up to handling a big storm, but we did nothing to fix the situation.

About a year before 911, I remember the episode of "The Lone Gunmen" where the plot was to fly an airplane into the Empire State Building. I also remember a Tom Clancy novel that told of an airplane being used as a bomb to wipe out congress. My point is, these ideas where out there in popular culture, and no one did anything about them.

I understand the time issue. I'd think fondly of how cool a Johnny Saturn motion comic would be to shop around for a movie deal, but there just isn't the extra time in schedule. I'd like to get back to doing paintings, too, but I'm similarly frustrated by the same.

You do short films? Cool!

I wan't to do a Johnny Saturn motion comic. I've got the skills to do it, but I'm not sure when my schedule would open up for it.
