From Lee Barnett: You'll Never Believe a Man Can Fly

What if the first super-hero in the world was a British ad man?

What if that first super-hero got his origin by way of an experiment gone wrong via courier service mishap?

What if that first super-hero had his attempt to formally go public messed up by a news service's infamous penchant for spelling and grammar mistakes?

Lee Barnett's got a recently-revised theory to entertain you with. He's been serializing it for the past few days, and it'll continue for a few weeks yet: You'll Never Believe a Man Can Fly. He explains some of what's in the works here. You may want to follow along, or purchase an e-book edition as offered at his end of things.

Oh, and one of the illustrations accompanying the text is one of mine.

If memory serves, this was my first real exposure to what dedicated Lego hobbyists could and do put together when they put their brains and their backs into a project. Had no idea how deep Lego fandom can run.

Temporary Substitution

Since my Livejournal's down for what the management's calling "emergency maintenance" - I'm wondering if it's not more dissident-suppression aimed at many of the Russophones in Russia and neighbouring countries, and would be glad of additional info from all credible sources - I'm going to post from here for now.

As a reward for the loyalists who keep dropping in here, here's a rough sketch I've been fiddling with. I may replace it with something better in the days ahead.

And if Disney/Marvel asks me to take it down, I will. Seems fair enough.

Was I the only Flickr user to ever get pix of this womens' hockey squad in action?

Really, people? Lingerie spam?

You're kidding, right?

Can't you be more imaginative than that?
