I honestly thought it was "Enterman(n)'s."

#StarWarsSunday Lego TIE Interceptor with Death Star and pilot. This was part of a series of planets containing mini-ships and minifigures. Naboo and Tattooine were pretty unremarkable blue or orange planets with blobs of color, but the Death Star is iconic. It's the only one I have.

TIE Interoceptor nowhere close to scale with the minifigure pilot on a stand. The hollow Death Star that contained them stands behind. I think I'm missing the stand pieces for the ship.

Either Entenmann's didn't think this slogan through or they've got cannibals on staff.

Don't let "good enough" prevent you from striving to do better. But don't let the quest for perfection keep you from starting at all.

Come and get it!

Actually, it turns out the Doctor Who one isn't so much a graphic novel as stories with illustrations. I think these may have been stuff I was planning to sell long ago.

I hope @danocosmic.bsky.social doesn't disown me over this!

Apparently I have more trade paperbacks to add to my shelves. Found them put away in a box this evening. A couple of these I'd thought about at times, but somehow didn't realize they were missing. Some of these I just forgot I had! #ComicSky #SilverSurfer

Six graphic novels: Doctor Who: A Journey Through Time, The Life Story of the Flash, Batman: A Death in the Family, Silver Surfer: The Enslavers, Silver Surfer: Judgment Day, and The Enchanted Apples of Oz.

Yeah, that's another issue. It's rough to be an Al fan. Maybe he needs to switch to "Weird Alfred" to avoid these issues. Or is that too formal?

Lunatic Lee @eclecticlee.bsky.social · 3d

I have this problem on Facebook when friends post about "AL fans." Did they mean Weird Al or University of Alabama football?

Netscape Navigator also sparked the first major software-bundling debates & helped shape the early web ecosystem. Netscape set the tone for the browser wars & the modern web we use today. A true icon of early internet innovation.

Dr. Demento Is Retiring. He Leaves Behind An Army Of Musical Oddballs

A Dr. Demento superfan looks back on the novelty radio icon as he finally hangs up his microphone. Oh, he pulled in a bunch of other superfans.

Arab, Alabama is AY-rab, not air-UB. Not that it attracts many tourists.

Considering the original lineup of the Frightful Four, I suspect the Wizard had more than a little bit of a bondage fetish. "Sandman will bury you in his body! Medusa will bind you with her living hair! The Trapster will glue you up!"

Came across "Oculus Infernum" by Van Helsing's Curse at Vintage Stock the other day. It's a Halloween-based album conceived by Dee Snider (of Twisted Sister fame). This is their only album and I'd never heard of it before. Pretty cool. Nice to add another album for Halloween to my collection.
