Happy Veterans Day

I'm outing myself here but yes I was in the Army way back when.

As you can tell from the photo I was still a gen-x geek even while in uniform as attested by such things as:

The spike Gremlin in front of the pentium computer.

The empty bag of chips on the floor

A copy of PC Gamer on the Chair

Hellraiser Puzzle box on the coffee table

and the Call of Cthulhu RPG books on the shelf

Name This Character

I'm starting a new reoccurring topic here at Atomic Romance: Name This Character!

Periodically I'll create some bizarre photoshop creation and you, the readers, will suggest names. Then I'll pick the best one and update the post.

So this cross between a model and Dr. Doom is waiting for a name... go for it.


UPDATE: THE WINNER IS ZEVIN! with... Khandroma!

What's Up McCain?

I caught a little of Chris Mathew’s show Hardball on MSNBC. He was talking about the third debate between Barack Obama and John McCain when he compared the two of them to Looney Tunes Characters. Obama was Bugs Bunny and McCain was Elmer Fudd.

Suddenly it all makes sense.

Germaine Gregarious was gracious enough to have me over for her Halloween party. It was a real blast and the food was excellent. Dr. Zaius managed to snap a few shots of the festivities here. In one of the pics you can see me sucking down a chip while Becca is providing a full frontal. Now that’s a party that can make you hungry! But Wait, it gets better! BAC from Yikes! created an awesome video of the whole darn thing.




Whew! Here it is Sunday and I’m still recovering.

Note: The pic is from Dr. Zaius who is an accomplished Photoshop virtuoso. Just check out his site you’ll see what I’m talking about.

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween from two monstrous butchers!
