Three things.

[nenena]

Thing the first!

ZOMG YAAAAAAAAAAY MOAR BONE MOAR BONE MOAR BONE!!!!!!!

Especially this tidbit:

Reprinted material will include such things as the never-before-reprinted Bone story from Disney Adventures.

I... still have that issue of Disney Adventures. No, seriously.

Thing the second!

Is there anybody on my flist with mad Photoshop skillz who would be willing to edit ugly seams out of a DVD-box scan for me?

I ask because it is officially time for another Scanspam Week, and I want to do a Soul Eater kickoff with this shizbit, but I am le fail at getting the seams edited out of the Maka box scan.

Edited to add: The flist delivers, as usual. Thank you!!

Thing the third!

Found scribbled on a post-it note that I stuck inside my copy of Skeleton Key to Finnegans Wake:

Who is the Black*Star of of the literary world?

Vyasa

James Joyce

CAGEMATCH!!!!

I suspect that Vyasa would be the winner here, both in terms of sheer authorial badassery and because in a cage match he could beat up anybody. Then again, this is Jimmy Joyce that we're talking about, the man who decided that the English language just wasn't good enough to properly express his masterpiece, so he spent seventeen years just making up his own goddamn words, including 35-syllable onomatopoeia, just because he could. Oh, and he wrote love letters to Nora Barnacle demanding that she describe, in graphic detail, how she masturbated to thoughts of his greatness. And she did. That's pretty epic badassery right there. And yet! It's still not as badass as demanding that a god write down your epic masterpiece as you dictate it - your epic masterpiece which, by the way, is eight times the length of the Iliad and the Odyssey combined - because you're just too awesome to waste your own time writing down yourself. Oh and then you insert yourself into your own story and basically open with a scene that involves a beautiful princess informing you that the world is on the brink of destruction and that disaster can only be averted by the magical properties of your glorious cock. Yes, really. And that's why Vyasa wins. Well, that and the fact that he could, in fact, beat up anybody. Really.

See, you guys, this is how my brain works when I'm bored.

Edited to add: Okay, four things now.

I want this.

And I will die of awesome if any of the Goon characters quote the "hookers and ice cream" line.

I've never read James Joyce, but I did like Bone. However I still haven't read the last volume because I haven't found it. :D

3)LMFAO Indeed that sounds like a Black*Star in the literary world. Wow! I am very curious and will have to check out their works...LOL Especially, Vyasa---I mean His Dick can save the fucking WORLD?! awesome cakes.

2)I have Photoshop, But I am very oblivious as to how great my skills are at it. I don't think It's great but if no one else can I sure as hell don't mind trying! :)

AND 1) OMFG Bone!!!! MOAR!?!?! This is sweet news to my ears! :Flails:

Yeah I went backwards. :x

[badninja.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry I failboated on getting that done. A lot of stuff just decided to happen at once. If you can't find anyone else, I'll give it another of the old college tries, but I don't want to promise when I know circumstances are wonky right now.

[alice-rm.livejournal.com]

I'm just so sure that I haven't "mad Photoshop skillz" and I have never tried to repair a pic o_O...I can't promise anything ··U

Of course, I'm sure that there are more talented persons for that kind of things 8DU but if no one else can, I could try!

[furikku.livejournal.com]

I have, um, semi-mad GIMP skillz. Does that count?

[neocloud9.livejournal.com]

Holy cow, more Bone! AND WE CAN HAS BARTLEBY.

[arionhunter.livejournal.com]

Oh Bone, ILU.

I can take a shot at whatever you need 'shopped - in newspaper terms, my skills are at about copyeditor level, which is a notch below full-blown graphic designer.

[ilikebigtoes.livejournal.com]

BONE~


and the thing the third was about the most beautiful thing I've read in a long time

[lost-angelwings.livejournal.com]

I... still have that issue of Disney Adventures. No, seriously.

I think I still have that one too! :D

[its-onthefritz.livejournal.com]

New Bone :D? This is fantastic news! Thank you for the link on that *excited*.

[nenena.livejournal.com]

Don't worry about it. You've been going through a lot of RL stuff. There's really, really no need to apologize!

[nenena.livejournal.com]

It's the one where Phoney and Smiley go on a treasure hunt, right?

[nenena.livejournal.com]

If you want to try, here's the file that I'm working on. (http://www.badongo.com/file/15588176)

Edit: Okay, that zip appears to not be working for everyone, so you can try this one instead (http://www.badongo.com/file/16166634).

[nenena.livejournal.com]

If you want to give the Maka scan a try, here's she is. (http://www.badongo.com/file/15588176) Any help would be appreciated!

[nenena.livejournal.com]

It counts.

If you want to take a shot at Maka, here she is. (http://www.badongo.com/file/15588176) A couple other people have expressed interest too, so no pressure. ;)

[nenena.livejournal.com]

Yay, thank you!

Here's Maka. (http://www.badongo.com/file/15588176) A couple other people have expressed interest too, so no pressure. ;)

[lost-angelwings.livejournal.com]

i think so :o i dun remember much nemore :(

[furikku.livejournal.com]

hrm, it's telling me the archive is corrupted when I try to unzip. :/

[nenena.livejournal.com]

Hmm, that's odd.

Well, the zip that I have on my HD still works fine (I just checked it), so here's a re-up: http://www.badongo.com/file/16166634

[furikku.livejournal.com]

That one worked!

Would you like the rivets and text stuff edited out, or just the liney bits?

[nenena.livejournal.com]

I don't mind the text, as I left the text on all the matching scans. If you have the time/inclination to get rid of the rivets, that would be awesome. But the only thing that I really really want gone are the lines.

[furikku.livejournal.com]

Well, here's my attempt:

[nenena.livejournal.com]

That is awesome!! Thank you!!!

[alice-rm.livejournal.com]

I'm sure that someone have already sent to you a better version, but here's my try, hope is right!:

I had lot of fun doing it x)

[goldenflames.livejournal.com]

*snort*

My brain works like that when I get bored too. Except I end up coming up with weird conversations between Krishna and Arjuna (played by John Abraham and Arjun Rampal, respectively).


P.S. Sorry for dropping off the face of the Earth, I'm in California visiting cousins.

I assume that by "wierd" you mean "AWESOME". ;)

[nenena.livejournal.com]

Oh, that is gorgeous!! Thank you so much!
