AT-AT TIMEMACHINE
AT-AT Time Machine! YES!Unfortunately this is but a pipedream, since an AT-AT's top speed is approx 37mph (60kph), which is not even close to the needed 88mph to achieve Time Travel using Doc Brown's technology*. Nonetheless, a nerd can dream....
Get it on a t-shirt here, at the expensive RedBubble
And Kudos to SevenHundred for giving us the AT-AT Time Machine - (This is the first I've ever seen/heard of the concept).

**Yes it has Mr Fusion. However, Mr Fusion only powers the time circuits and the flux capacitor, but the internal combustion engine runs on ordinary gasoline; it always has. The combustion engine is what gets it up to the proper speed, hence the reason in the Old West they needed a way to get the delorean up to 88 without gas.

THE NEW 'GLORY' IS METAL
Last night I read 'GLORY' #25, the latest issue of the recently relaunched title. Holy crap, this book is crazy! If you're not reading it, you should. Start with the relaunch issue; #23. You do not need to know anything about the character or stories before... merely she is the Extreme Universe's "Wonder Woman" of sorts.If you like the relaunched 'Prophet', 70s Heavy Metal Magazine & animated movie, Matt Wagner's [Future] Grendel stuff and radical space barbarian shit - then you'll dig this.
*issue 23 isn't stellar, but sets everything up... issues 24 & 25 are killer!

ALIENS MURAL IN EAST LONDON
End of the Line challenged the artist "Jim" (no relation) to paint a 4-piece mural based on H.R. Giger's ALIEN, in East London.They post:
Jim was getting itchy trigger finger. We set him a challenge to paint all four panels on Great Eastern St in one day, no backup, no support just a big bag of paint and a handful of caps, Basing the production on one of our favourite film franchises, Alien, by Ridley Scott and HR Geiger, visionaries both.
The epic Alien production proved that the Samurai Painting style ( No Thinking Just Movement) and offshoot of the Shaolin Shadow painting School can cover large areas with style and grace without getting caught up in indecision and monotony. This confident application of paint shuns the status quo of run of the mill photo-realism and adopts ultimate fun as its core principle. You should be able to see the paint strokes, the mistakes, the artists own true style and not hide behind technique and glossy reproduced image. The spray can is king and influences the final production.
FUN!!But I wonder if they realize the mural Jim did was a recreation of RAYMOND SWANLAND'S original art for the 2009 comic mini-series "ALIENS: MORE THAN HUMAN", from Dark Horse Comics.
I love Swanland's art!Tuesday, April 10, 2012

SLAYER WINE
Nice! Apparently SLAYER now has its own WINE, sold only in Sweden.via brandsforfans:
The wine, a Cabernet Sauvignon from California, is as uncomprimising and tough as the band. After a couple of Seasons in the Abyss, the wine has an undisputed attitude and a soft nose of dark berry fruits with oak and spicy nuances. Good mouth feel with hints of fresh fruit and juicy, smooth tannins. Well structured and rounded with subtle notes of oak, showing true Divine Intervention. Best company for the wine comes as no surprise, enjoy it while headbanging, riffing or with food, friends and great music. Reign in Wine!
