Bitstrips: Iron Maiden's Eddie!
Just to see how it would turn out, I built Iron Maiden's Eddie in Bitstrips. I then decided to create a Bitstripped version of the Number of the Beast album cover. Then I did Piece of Mind, Killers and yesterday I did the cover for Iron Maiden's 1980 self titled release:
Those are the easy ones. With Bitstrips' somewhat limited props, and poses, I'm going to have to get super creative to do Powerslave, Somewhere in Time, 7th Son of a 7th Son and beyond. Stay tuned...

Hands on my Missle!
Missle Command is one of my all-time favorite video games, so this is the coolest thing I've seen today:
I wish I had one of these in my living room.

100K on my K-I-A
My 2000 Kia Sportage turned over 100,000 miles on my way home from work today. It might not have been the best idea to take a camera phone photo at 60 mile per hour on Interstate 225, but that was when the moment occurred:
It's amazing how giddy you get when all those nines roll away to reveal that one followed by all those zeroes.
More on the Kia and some of my other cars HERE.

Good News: Spaced on DVD
14 episodes (the complete series) of the totally awesome British comedy Spaced, are finally going to be released on DVD.
Speculation is that this is being done in advance an (ill-advised, in my opinion) American remake ala The Office.
If you liked Shaun of the Dead or Hot Fuzz, then Spaced will be right up your alley.
I can't wait.

Otter Disaster #5: NFL or LSH?
I changed my Blogger template to accomodate the full Bitstrip/Image as opposed to the embedded player. I just think comics should be seen in context with all the panels in their proper place...
