I hit the road last weekend for Erie, Pensylvania to attend the Erie Library Comic-Con, only to find out that I had been tricked! I was led to believe that the convention was being held in Eyrie, PA, and I was greatly disappointed to find that the show’s location, Basement Transmissions, had no moon door through which I could make little men fly! (I did toss a few children out of a window, but it just wasn’t the same).
The deception was double, in fact, as I soon realized I had been lured from the safe harbors of my home in Snowflakia, New York to hawk my wares in dreaded…Trump Country!
I made the best of a bad situation, but as usual, bodily injury was never more than a few costumed jerks away!
…
All dressed up and no place to go! But at least, for the first time in my life, I was color coordinated.
What button do I push to make you disappear, weirdo?
Spawn meets a jawa? Whatever… just so long as Ryan Reynolds plays you in the movie.
This little girl was so adorable! But then we got into a heated discussion about whether or not genre movies really needed more “strong female role models” or if that is just an excuse for liberal pandering, and to be quite honest, she turned into a straight-up bee-yotch.
I’m sorry! The “Boba Fat” joke was way out of line! (BTW, how’d you escape the sarlacc? Did’ja got stuck halfway down it’s throat??)
This dame puts the “leg” in “Legolas”! Oh… wait. You’re Link, aren’t you? Fuck. Just get out of my shot.
Wow! Half Logan, half Deathstroke! That makes you the most badass killer of all time! So… you gonna buy something or what?
“I sold my beard to buy you a hair pick! But… you sold your afro to buy me a bottle of beard oil?? OH THE IRONY!!”
KWAII! I’m sure your parents are charmed by your cosplaying!
And I’m sure YOUR parents wish they hadn’t scrimped and saved to pay for your college tuition, since you are obviously destined for a career at Delta Sonic! Hey, how much for a touchless wash, dork??
AAAARGH! Keep the change!
April 29th, a day that will live in funfamy! That’s a neologism, folks! A mash-up of “fun” and “infamy”! For what better way to describe the cinematic perplexity that is 1974’s sci-fi classic Zardoz?
Buffalo’s North Park Theatre played host to me and my wily shenanigans this past Sarurday as I hosted Zardoz, (because hey, why not?) Family, friends, fans and a few anonymous victims turned up and provided a pretty decent crowd for this film. I donned an Egyptian klaft and did a little song and dance before the show, forever cementing my legacy as Buffalo’s premier showman! (Take a knee, Lance Diamond.)
Here are a few moments from the big night. Thanks again to everyone who came out!
Even the original run of Zardoz did not rate a poster this awesome!
Your host, in full 2293 garb!
Zardoz is everywhere!
Zardoz is everything!!
ALL HAIL ZARDOZ!!
And now, the moment you have all been waiting for: instructions from Zardoz on how to enjoy Zardoz. I created this cartoon (which ran before the movie) as a spoonful of sugar for the audience. It is rich in irony, and most satirical.
Here’s my finished poster. You don’t have to tell me it’s sweet, ‘cuz I KNOWS IT!
I’ll be selling these limited edition silkscreened posters at the Zardoz screening on April 29th! Bring your cash!!
