I asked the Game of Thrones community over at reddit.com to vote on what character they would like to see illustrated. The overwhelming response wasn’t a character but a scene: Prince Oberyn Martell vs. Ser Gregor Clegane.  The Red Viper vs. The Mountain. What I’ve got here is probably one of three pages I see for this scene. A Storm of Swords, the third novel in  GRRM’s opus A Song of Ice and Fire is so far my favorite. George has me digging fantasy for the first time. This page is spoiler light, but the next one won’t be. Stay tuned!

It’s funny how I would have more confidence in a fan-made comic book of this series than one done by a pro comic book company.

This little segment gave me the howling fantods this afternoon.

Yeah no this isn’t the right video but cicadas are aliens from another planet.

Bleah.

Abarth 1500 Bertone Biposto (1952)

Abarth realised that, if anything, an Abarth labelled car would be a very powerful marketing tool for his “go fast” products. He also knew that the best way to attract attention was with an eye-catching body. With their very promising designer Franco Scaglione, Bertone would be an ideal partner for this project. Nobody at the time could have known that the Bertone bodied Abarth would form the basis for a series of three legendary show cars.

:O

I’m sorry, this has gone too far. This has happened in police department after police department, and it has gone too far. Our police look like the goons in Russia and China. Please watch this video and send it to everyone you know. This has gone too far.

Anyone get a badge number on this guy? With that many cameras, someone must have it.

This makes me sick to my stomach.
