Prog / Re: Prog 1981 - The Law Lives
20 May, 2016, 05:00:10 AM
Because of my suffering internet. I couldn't post my usual commentary here last early this morning.

It was a doozey, at least I thought it was....

So, here's the abridged version.

That opening picture of Slough, Other Son of Feg standing full frontally nude and showing what circumcision taken too far probably is.

Nothing to see or read here aside from some very good & and exciting action visuals. Even I am tiring of the narrative/dialoge here that could be lifted away from the art work. Replaced by something more snappy &  to the point!

He has a very cool sword at least. It's some type of bastard sword. I'd like to own one and both variations of each axe wielded by our hero's...the same. Love those!

That very last image of Feg's Son holding his sword aloft, his long evil Cythy tongue displayed in such away as to remind me of....


By nature of how he's about to strike with sword while open mouth and tongue displayed in very similar manner. (Best picture I could find here!)


By virtue of both their unnaturally distended tongues....


By the way he's holds his sword as he's about to strike with that tongue displayed.


I do hope you all appreciate that I left ou the part where I described what the Primordial/Warped appearance of Gort & Slaine truly reminds me of and that Slaine always has that wide gaping grin that display more of his gullet. Maybe that Simon Davis has taken cues from the description of Cu-Chulainn....

....His mouth weirdly distorted: his cheek peeled back from his jaws until the gullet appeared....

I would have liked to see more variation here. I still prefer the warpings of Glen Fabry.

I forgot to add that line....

HUMANS
ARE AFTER ALL
A BASTARD RACE.
NEITHER APE NOR
CYTH


Now I always thought that Apes & being descended from them was Darwinism.

Sure the author might not agree. Given that I couldn't immediately find anything (From that link above!) to support my belief that we are descended from Apes. Not that it has to be that way & especially in this universe.

Nothing wrong with that really....anything is possible in here!

This begs a question about that Dark Gods book that P. Mills once referenced was a partial source for Time-Killer & all that stuff about the Root-Races.

Where did humans come from? 

(Of course, the answer might found if you follow the last link.)

I don't actually believe this it true, but like Slaine. I like a good fantasy fiction!

Music / Die Artwood!
20 May, 2016, 03:25:38 AM
Parts of this video seem to be inspired by Slaine & the reason why he got booted from his tribe.

Baby's On Fire by Die Artwood.

The short blonde is Naimh, the tall guy in yellow pants is Grudnew & Elfric (Something to do with the bra landing on his head .) and that last guy must have been Slaine. Also enlightening us with the fact that Naimh was sleeping with most of the male population of the Sessair tribe & Tara. Yet, Slaine was the last guy to be found out there.

Where he warps into his car and runs over Grudnew who also happens to be Naimh's foster/half brother after she bricks him point blank.

Grudnew of course, is also Elfric here. Because of his golden gun he's pulls on young Slaine & the fact that Elfric & Christopher Lee's/Scaramanga both have a Supernumerary Nipple (Again about the bra landing on his head...). Not that the the guy who's calls himself NInja might actually have that.

I just love the fire trail left by the car right towards the end of it.

Continued Later...

After I got my refund from Steam......

As you all know...I only get the Prog for Slaine & I just flick through the digital pages until find that tell tale explosion of colour that herald the work of Simon Davis. Kind of like going to a nudie bar just for that glimpse of a certain something and nothing else.

Even if it's getting worse as most of you say. I found it's to follow and read properly these days, and even I though there was too much dialoge during the battle. I kept flipping back to another internet page and then almost forgetting I was still in the process of reading Slaine. Even with my own penchant for long sprawling essays. I think this needed less of words. Even as it turns out that now most of them were coming from Slough Junior.

And then those last three words issuing in unison from the mouths of both Slaine and now Gort as well! You'd think this is return to one of the things that made him cool. Yet, it doesn't work on paper.

Is Pat Mills off his game again?

Is there a Pat Mills?

I sometimes think that he might have been hired as acting author used as a façade while somebody else ghost writes behind the scenes. For awhile it's doesn't seem like the same writer. I've been nursing that assumption for along time now and only because lacks the thrills that it used to have.

Not that I want to accuse Pat Mills of taking the credit for somebody else, but if I didn't. It might be that he's now taking the blame.

Prog / Re: Prog 1981 - The Law Lives

I'm sorry to hear such bad press about Slaine I from what I have seen  so far, I'm getting impression  that Pat doesn't feel the same way for this character that he when the he was in his prime as identity here and chronologically as well.

Dare, I say, maybe it might have been better off to have ended with the Horned God when it really began to be recognised internationally, I guess. Yet, also when the stores started to feel like they were just going through the motions. Well, at least as far as it's concerned plot-wise or what ever point was being made.

I still in it for art work & action at least....it's legacy from the Pre-Horned-God days is that powerful. Which why a lot of us still bother to read....why I still bother to only buy the Prog for this reason alone.

About the art work... I like Simon Davis's work. Why I actually believe it was myself who suggested he should have this duty ages ago. After seeing his work on Dark Siddhara/Abbey Cruxis (You should know the one even if I got the spelling wrong!) that one about the prisoner island and that Bob Geldorf inspired Slaine poster....

Which I currently can't get in Google images

Yet,  his art work here in Slaine does pale in comparison. or perhaps the drabness is intentional. Because it's supposed to be bleak looking. I still like it of course, but Slaine does suddenly look very old like blessings of the Earth Goddess are starting fade. What ever holding back foibles that life kick's every bodies butt!

Shouldn't be Sci-Fi thriller...it should be based on a Russian-Fairy-Tale

So the Word of God [spoiler]stops working once the Genesis host explodes[/spoiler]?  Seems like that opening scene would have been much freakier if the [spoiler]congregation had remained utterly silent as they ran away...[/spoiler]


Does Peter Gabriel cameo ?

I just put that up on the FB wall of a girl I know who use to collect those. Mainly ones with the Glenn Fabry covers. When they were good.

Did anybody remember this Slaine cover?

Same amount of face shown here!

Same shape of face two!

If I had the patience, I might try a facial swap just to see if it fits.

Is it normal for Slaine to have such a tiny head?  :o

It does look like he's just further away. I'd attempt that myself just to see if it fits if I could find a cover picture that is the same size. Otherwise I might have to find some art program that would help. Paint & Art-Rage aren't what they used to be.

Back on the subject of buying this prog, I had to choose between eating until I get paid next Monday, and buy any of the two versions of last weeks and this weeks progs. My last ten dollars only went as far twelve packet of noodles (Which aren't very filling, they're so tiny) and a box of oats and small bottle of milk. Now all the milk's gone and not sure about the oats. I'm having some now with touch of Cacao powder and they aren't much like the oats I've had from those free samples I often find in the mail.

I don't think I will be seeing any more Slaine until next Monday.

Help! / Are they Gone for Good?

Just looked in the online store for the clothing & found all those Slaine t-shirts are gone.

Aside from the obvious, is this true or just temporary?
