Okay, Duck Dodgers as a Green Lantern? Way better than I expected.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
It was on Cartoon Network last night at around 8. Duck Dodger's and Hal Jordan's dry cleaning get mixed up and hilarity ensues.

Thanks DX. TiVo says it's not rerunning anytime soon (grrr), but I'll keep an eye out for it.

Jon, the fact that the Duck Dodgers theme is a collaboration between Tom Jones and The Flaming Lips should have alerted you to its sensibility.

Well, it's not exactly Adult Swim, but it is pretty fun. And the theme is great - very Thunderball/Goldfinger.

I just came across this article:
CHRIS GOLDEN & AMBER BENSON'S GHOSTS OF ALBION BECOMES DEL REY SERIES.
Has anybody seen or read any of this Ghosts of Albion stuff? Is it any good?

Jeff, The Ghosts of Albion stuff is here
The 'Legacy' story is very good (scroll down a bit), the 'Astray' one is not quite as good. IMHO, of course.

I just ordered the Tales of the Slayer paperback (along with a few other things).
I noticed there's multiple volumes - are the additional ones worth pursuing? I noted Jane Espenson (sp?) is on vol. 2 (I thought she had a story in 1), but no one listed on 3 but Christopher Golden. Are these comics or stories?
I went for 1, because it was the one that definitely had Joss on it, and was obviously a comic.

Vol 2. has 10 or so stories and is worth it for the one by Jane Espenson alone. I'd get it.
Vol 3. has four longer stories. The good is pretty good - the bad is horrible - the writers are buffy novel writers, and Golden just writes one of the stories, IIRC.
There is a pretty cool site that gives stats and histories for all the various slayers mentioned in all three books here.
