I never knew till today that artist Charles Adlard did an entirely different design for the aliens. I wonder if he was building off Giffen's layouts...

I was obssed within this cover as a child.

It should be illegal for anyone but the interior artist to do the cover for a the comic, because otherwise it's a lie.

And it worked! The first story in MANGA ISSHO is a work originally published in German, and it leads into a longer series I'm going to check out....

I don't like him personally, but David Simon on AI is the final word on the subject.

YES! A bunch of European publishers are doing the "Let's put together a bunch of comics in one phone book and put it out it regularly" thing. Oddly, they have done it in four languages, but not English.

rise of the machines

Fred Flentstone stands, hands on his hips, looking incredulously at Barney Rubble, who is at the corner of the panel barely visible. He appears to wearing tiny sunglasses.
"C'mon Barn, what's with the getup? and what is that on your head?" Fred asks.
"oh this, Fred?"
We now see Barney is also wearing a black trench coat and smoking a cigarette. A small bird is taped to the side of his head. "Just the latest in cybernetic enhancement technology- wired right into my brain."

The background dissolves and Barney stands next to a free floating diagram of a human body with several small birds going into it and says "we're entering a new age, Fred- the synthesis of man and machine as one flesh. This is the future. It's hack or be hacked."
Fred looks incredulous.

The bird pecks Barney.

Barney puts his hands on his head and screams "the machines are turning against us! We have built God only for him to destroy us!" as the bird continues to peck at him.

[UOTES investigates @retrosupply #frightfall2025] October 5, 2025: Many people have reported seeing a figure that seems to be wearing a tattered Ben Cooper Halloween jack’o’lantern costume and carrying a trick or treat bag.

New BLADE II review dropped.

He does, but much not as over the top. He likes things to play out in wides, with particular framing, and tons of zooms. Basically, shooting with intent, and only one way for the edit.
