Britain trying to sell this as a serious political drama when blokes in fuzzy hats march up and down doing Bon Jovi cover versions.

Perennial "Farage actually in contemplative mode" screengrab. I like to hope his thoughtfulness at the minute is about how he's made an almighty cock up of this bi-election...

Farage gurning like the fetid bridge troll he is, suggesting that "just for once" he's pretty thoughtful... Unlikely, you reptilian artichoke

Hey @seanferrick.bsky.social , I have never been one for cosplay but I have wanted this jacket since seeing the movie 40 odd years ago- of course, it had to arrive on the hottest day of the year!

from Wiki... As I thought the Beeb had more of an involvement than just broadcasting it.

Despite Lucasfilm's generous offer, NPR was still faced with the costs of writing scripts, hiring actors and renting studio space. With no funding available to cover the $200,000 budget, NPR entered into a co-production deal with the British broadcaster, the BBC, which had a long tradition of radio drama production. The BBC provided a production team, including director John Madden, and in exchange received broadcasting rights in the United Kingdom. From the outset, the NPR producers felt that the script would lend itself well to an episodic treatment, drawing on the format of the 1930s movie serials such as Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers that had originally inspired Lucas when he wrote Star Wars.

I genuinely thought this was a reply :-)

Hey @seanferrick.bsky.social , can't remember if I've shared the Star Trek The Motion Picture promo magazine before with the unexpected bridge set details...

do you have the Blake&Mortimer Final Pharoah? It's fabulous by him

Dark Horse ran a lot of his b&w stuff in Cheval Noir in the 90s which is where I discovered him. Amazing architecture! My choice for classy but not seen much in English is Jean-Pierre Gibrat, who I described as "What if Gene Colan was French and worked in watercolours?"

beautiful watercolour panel from a Gibrat album, typically alluring female lead, a flummoxed priest, and a couple of drinkers look around

stunning storytelling by Gibrat, two young lovers pass a fun bicycle trip until he goes too far...

Just been reminded of the Wonder Woman 1 Million issue I did for @paulkupperberg.bsky.social back in the late 90s written by Christopher Priest and inked beautifully by John Stokes . I like to hope John has, over the decades finally forgiven me for the detail in this double page spread...

All this talk about the 25th Amendment , I just remembered that way back when I worked for the UK courts, there'd be a Section 8 Committal for anyone as dangerous to themselves and everyone else. Just saying.

Summary of reasons for committing someone against their wishes after exhibiting dangerous behaviour

Trump posting a picture of himself as Jesus (including glowing stigmata) because he's FUCKING INSANE

The exhausting whiny rant about why Leo is only Pope because of Trump so he should stay in lane. The President of the United States has declared the Pope a LOSER. The handrails have fallen off and he's dragging us all with him over the ledge while posting pictures of himself as Jesus. FOR FUCKS SAKE
