The style of the Boba Fett cartoon by Nelvana was, at Lucas's request, heavily inspired by 'Heavy Metal' magazine, and more specifically, in Moebius, and it looks really nice. #StarWars #Moebius

Happy November 14th to all who celebrate the second appearance of Dr Manhattan after being atomized in a lab accident. Be sure to horrify whoever you appear to, when screaming for thirty seconds before vanishing
A comic panel from the comic series watchmen. A skinless Dr Manhattan is screaming outside a fence of a military base with a horrified armed guard outside watching. Caption reads: November 14th: a partially muscled skeleton stands by the perimeter fence and screams for thirty seconds before vanishing

Friday is assigned to shadow Jenny Trevor, the most famous woman in the world.

It seems a rogue photographer is intentionally placing the Princess and her family in danger in order to get the ultimate photograph.

Friday's job is to get photographic evidence of his bad intent and save her life.
Black female, photographer assistant Friday Foster gets her time to shine as main photographer of the famous Jenny Trevor (a Jackie Kennedy Onassis-like stand in). As Friday holds her top-of-the-line camera in her hands, the background shows a scared Jenny Trevor chased by the rogue paparazzi. Friday Foster #1, Oct 1972 by Joe Gill & Jack Sparling

With a “WOW!,” President Trump posts a claim about DOGE and “royalties linked to Obamacare” that originated on a satirical website. That site’s own About section reads: “Everything on this website is fiction… If you believe that it is real, you should have your head examined.”

Clippy says, It looks like you're trying to reinvent phrenology because fascism is currently ascendant. Would you like me to help you stop being a piece of shit?
