It sounds like you need to borrow my DVD of A Touch of Brimstone.
I swear, one of these times, you're gonna wake up in a coma.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
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 wasn't sure where to post this because I think of Minearverse as the place where people talk about Warren Ellis but really this is a comics thing so...
I did something very dorktastically funny this weekend:

Scans daily has posted the Callisto/Storm duel. God I love that, both narratively and artistically.
Some strange stuff happens with Storm's face, but the body language is beautiful throughout the fight.

That was Paul Smith? I loved his art on the book. One of my favorite runs on X-men. How cool is Ororo's knife-snatch out of the air?

I love the panel where Storm has trapped Callisto's arm up in the air and is about to stab her. It looks so loose, and in the middle of motion.
