Say 'Hey'!

Craig Ferguson, with puppets!


Hey, I had a request for a 'puppet inclusive' redux of my Craig Ferguson post - lately Craig has been doing some really creative and funny puppet routines on his show. I know, it sounds odd, and a little counter-intuitive for a late-night show, but he makes it work. Check out this example -

Riddle Me This...

Suited Frank Gorshin Riddler, John Astin Riddler, Jim Carrey Riddler

I had a request for a couple variations on the Riddler, topped off by the incredible Frank Gorshin in the suited Riddler look.

It was sure perplexing for me as a kid watching the reruns of the old Batman show and suddenly for some reason Riddler is sporting a mustache! Later I learned it was in fact John Astin (of Adams Family fame) taking on Gorshin's role.

Anyway I also wanted to throw a Jim Carrey 'Batman Forever' Riddler in here as well. I think that performance of his is basically the visual definition of 'over the top'. Very... colorful :)

...And Knowing is Half the Battle

Duke, Cobra Commander

As a kid, my friend was a bigger GI Joe fan than I was, but I enjoyed the show and man, I really enjoyed the toys. One of my favorite things to do with the figures (and I'm sure some of you did this too) was twist them up at the waist so they'd come whirling back around on account of that elastic band thing inside them. So fun :)

Not so optimistic about the movie though :)

Anyway, you'll probably see some more 'Joe' Punx in the future sometime.

It IS rocket science...

The Rocketeer


I have to admit, it's been a very long time since I've watched The Rocketeer, but you have to love the awesomely retro outfit he sports. How cool is that helmet of his?

Dirty House

Dr. House

Well, to be honest, I've never actually seen a full episode of House (or a "full House" if you will), but somebody told me they wanted to see him on here and I thought I'd try it. Besides, Hugh Laurie has a unique and interesting scruffy kinda face. I could see him on Simpsons one day.

You bet it's an X-man!

Gambit

Gambit version 2

I did get a good number of requests for this guy and here he is finally - the card throwing cajun member of the X-men. I understand he's in the new Wolverine movie. I guess we'll see how that turns out, but I do enjoy the comic version of him.

Now you don't need to request him anymore. This is a side-project folks! You people are ruthless!

heh heh, just kidding.

Kind of :)

EDIT; heh, you often don't realize the little details you can miss, something didn't quite look right, now I just noticed that Gambit's ear is supposed to be poking out on the side there, so I fixed that. Later!

EDIT AGAIN; Sigh. I had a comment from an anonymous person who pointed out Gambit's eyes, how they're supposed to be kinda red with black instead of the whites and I guess he's right. I've seen that myself before, but that never occurred to me when doing it. He's a bit creepier looking that way, so heck, here's both of them to choose what you like. Later!

Bad Day for Vamps

Blade

Here's Blade, Marvel's resident snappy dresser/vampire hunter.

Ok, I have to ask... Who'd win between Blade and Buffy?
