To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Things I've been up to:

Film critic and playwright Brian Dauth, “November 3rd Club” Editor in chief Victor D. Infante, Performance artist and film critic Matt Cornell, Libertarian Party co-founder Dave Nolan and "PopCultureShock" senior comics editor Guy LeCharles Gonzalez discuss The politics of “V For Vendetta” in the first installment of a new "November 3rd Club" Feature.

Read what they had to say, then tell us what you think in "The November 3rd Club" LJ Forum.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Penguin Classics, with covers by notable cartoonists.

Nice! First, those classical music CDs, now this.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Well, tie me up and tickle me silly. Marvel's Hellfire Club is a bunch of homages, starting with the Avengers. No, not those Avengers. The real ones, with Steed.

It sounds like you need to borrow my DVD of A Touch of Brimstone.

I've seen the episode--I just never made the connection.

Huh.

It seemed obvious to me. It veers off from "homage" territory into the "rip-off" zone.

I'm not good with that sort of memory--I read the comic way after seeing the episode--I couldn't tell you the guest actors/characters from any of the TV I watched in the early 80s.

Love that episode. Diana Rigg's outfit (you know the one) is etched into my memory. Also, the ep features a pre-Python appearence by Carol Cleveland.

I did something very dorktastically funny this weekend:
