Bling Bling!

How do you like your "Hefleeze" now, benchilada?



Similarly, via mellifluous_ink: BREAKFAST CEREAL CORPS COLOR WAR. My favorite is Trix Rabbit as Larfleeze, although I sooner see Cap'n Crunch as Ganthet than a Rage Lantern (along with the original three chefs for Cinnamon Toast Crunch). But for the life of me, I can't think of any breakfast cereal mascot capable of rage. Well, other than Trix Rabbit finally snapping...

By the way, as I helped unpack the comic shop's shipment for tomorrow, I've read the new GL and BLACKEST NIGHT issues. Let me say right now, I bloody love Larfleeze. I hope he sticks around for awhile.

I'm not sure if I've said it before, but I would buy a book of your geeky photos.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

HAHAHA, oh, don't tempt me to put out a coffee table book, because I totally will put out a coffee table book.

[kiffie.livejournal.com]

Eh? Eh? :D ?

*tempt*

WHERE DID YOU GET THOSE RINGS THEY LOOK LIKE CANDY I WANNA BITE 'EM OFF DEM FINGAS.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

NO NOT MAH FINGAS. Go to your local comic shop! DC's been giving away free promo rings for the past few weeks!

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

The colored ones, anyway. The irregular green ones are various GL rings I've procured over the years (including the magnetic one that lights up the power battery)!

[surrealname.livejournal.com]

I was about to say that you have no idea how badly i want a red lantern ring (or, perhaps not need, but feel it appropriate that i would have one) then i stopped for a minute and realized that, no, Hefner probably knows exactly how badly I want a red lantern ring.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

Heh heh. Well, then get thee to thy nearest comic shop tomorrow! They should be there, along with the GL rings, totally free!

[surrealname.livejournal.com]

fine use of icon there, Jordan.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

That was the idea! I would have tried to do a full recreation, but some of the rings were too big and kept rolling around. Had to just make do.

[surrealname.livejournal.com]

actually, I meant the icon you used in your reply to my comment. The guy being guy and hal being "oi, Guy. Why must you be you?" icon.

However, yes, the original use was quite good.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

Oh gotcha. Yeah, that was intentional.

[surrealname.livejournal.com]

I figured.

[tonks07.livejournal.com]

Niiiiice.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

I'm a pretty pretty princess with mah jewelry.

[shadowlongknife.livejournal.com]

YOU CAN STOP THE BLACK LANTERNS.

Oh, wait. You have a Black Lantern ring. When did you die, Hef? :(

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

I didn't die, just my thumb. It's an evil undead thumb. Keeps life interesting.

[shadowlongknife.livejournal.com]

Also: Black Lantern NEEDS TO BE Fruit Brute.

[jellied.livejournal.com]

That last page of Green Lantern kills me. Also who fucking called the Batman thing before this even started? Me. But it's still good. Oh god, it's good.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

You mean, "Well... almost everything."? Man, I really do love him. It occurs to me, Larfleeze isn't Scrooge McDuck, but rather, he's Daffy. Particularly late period Chuck Jones Daffy.

"NO NO NO MINE MINE MINE MINE! I'm rich! I'm wealthy! I'm financially secure! I'm reasonably well-off! I'm a happy miser!"

[jellied.livejournal.com]

That's exactly what I mean. I snuck a peek when I was filling out sub boxes tonight.

[lairdofdarkness.livejournal.com]

So Jealous of you Hef
(these photos are always a highlight - put out a coffee table book of them STAT! Plus a travel book of your trip, I would totally buy that)
I really hope these rings make it over the pond to the Granite City. If I cannot get a Black Lantern ring I may cry
You dont want to see me cry
Eye-liner everywhere - big mess

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

Thanks! The travel book may yet actually happen, depending on a couple factors, creatively-speaking.

Aw, they haven't been doing the rings over there? Crud. The Black Lantern rings were the first they did, a month or so ago. I got mine at a convention!

[interdisciple.livejournal.com]

holy mother of son, has that spicy-intestine-eating bastard seen this shit yet?

this calls for an all-out GEEK OFF 2010.

granted, i don't "speak" "the" "language" or "understand" "the" "culture," but it's sorta like being privy to things japanese; you have pretty much no idea what the fuck's going on about 99% of the time but it's no less alluring in its batshit awesomeness.

*sits back, munching durian snack popcorn like a normal person*

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

He has yet to comment. I'm torn between preparing a full-on Macho Man Randy Savage style calling-out video or waiting for Henchgirl to return so she can back me up, because Ben would be a formidable foe indeed.

Hey, as long as it's entertaining, that's all that matters to me!

[bitemetechie.livejournal.com]

....

You....

I can form no words other than 'dork' right now.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

You should have that picture of me in your wallet.

[bitemetechie.livejournal.com]

.........

Oh, yes, because I want to explain that.

"What? Oh. That's my boyfriend. Plastic bling? No, no, those are Green Lantern rings--yes, I know they aren't all green, but...you know what? Never mind. Just...just never mind."

[superfan1.livejournal.com]

Nice bling and absolutely love your expression also. :)
