they're ALL blue wires!!
Jul. 2nd, 2007 06:19 pmGIP, even though I really should be using the Bub and Johnny icon. Not sure the icon totally lives up to what I had in mind, but there you go. I'm sick and tired of listening to that damn Fall Out Boy song (how many people who listen to that song know where it comes from, much less what it means?) that, for the sake of Patrick Marber, Clive Owen, Mike Nichols, and hell, even Julia Roberts, I'm taking it back. After all, if ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ty_hallmark was to be believed, I did! in the purely dramatic sense! don't kill me, Roddy!
But aside from that, I'm also posting a li'l something-something from my very own "Girlfriend in Canada," the greatlittle_dinosaur.
A little story about how all this came about. Anyone remember my SUPERDREAMTEAM that comprised of Oracle, Hal Jordan, Kitty Pryde, Bill the Butcher, Werner Herzog, Bub and Johnny, and others? Well, when I got the brilliant idea to see what would happen if Kitty and Bill finally faced off, just to see if I could pull off this brain-breakingly cracktacular story, I also wrote short little segments for the "Previously in VILLAINS BY NECESSITY..." (shamelessly stealing Jaki's brilliant orphan title, itself presumably snagged from KING LEAR).
So we got to see scenes like:
Herzog and Dr. Strange waxing philosophical and searching through Strange's sofa cushions looking for the Eye of Agamotto while the rest of the team battles replicants in the BLADE RUNNER world (not realizing that Johnny's hocked the Eye for gin money).
Hal Jordan and Otto Octavius reenacting the first scene between Will Graham and Hannibal Lecter from RED DRAGON/MANHUNTER.
Werner Herzog beating up Hitler and then going to make tea, while Bill double-crosses the team to Baron Zemo, then double-crosses Zemo back and wields Captain America's shield. He reverently hands it back to Steve, who accepts it with a quiet little, "Yyyyyeah, you take your damn hands off that, thanks" look.
And this little exchange between an increasingly-frazzled Oracle and the world's worst bomb squad:
Too cool.
Stuff like this makes me really consider doing little BUB AND JOHNNY webcomics, in the style of my last one. Once I have a bit more free time, of course. But dear lord, I love these characters. Don't hold your breath for more anytime soon, but keep your eyes out nonetheless.
