    True story: While I was working on the figures, the boxes were laying there next to me and my wife said:
    "What's that gibberish on the box?"
    "The characters are from the 30th Century and that's what the universal language Interlac looks like then"
    "And you understand what it says?"
    "Yes, I know how to read Interlac", I sheepishly admitted.
    A couple beats go by....
    "No offense but, you ARE a geek you know...", she said with a smile.


    Thanks for sharing that story, Anthony

      In the Southeast Pacific, lies the sunken city of R'Leyh. There lies C'thulhu waits to return to our world with the other Great Old Ones. A hideous creature of enormous size and alien power, it waits for it's time to return patiently. For it has all the time in the world while it waits for the stars.

        Those are great. I don't know who they are, but the likenesses are perfect.

            Great job! It' d be easy to make variations of you Starboy, his current JSA/Kingdom Come Starman look, and his 80s beareded look.

            Nice Perez artwork on the boxes too. Where'd that come from?

            I'm tempted to do a JSA/KC Starman but then I think that'd open up a can of worms for me and I'd feel the need to do a Starman line (BIG fan of James Robinson's series)...not just yet.

            The George Perez artwork came from Best of DC Digest #24 (LSH issue). On the cover it says "16 Pages of New Costumes" but most of them are the 70s style that Dave Cockrum and others designed with very little, if any, changes. I picked the artwork because it covered all of the LSH and it was pretty uniform (no pun intended) as opposed to tracking down various artwork by various artists for over 30 characters. The only ones I had to redraw (over Perez' layouts) were Shadow Lass, Wildfire and Timber Wolf, because they weren't in sync with the 70s designs (especially T-Wolf's)
            Think OUTSIDE the Box! For the BEST in Repro & Custom Packaging!
