Continuing my recent foray into infinite variations of Super Craig and Wonder Tweek! RikMaterik is a fantastic and prolific illustrator who dropped a few South Park Creek pieces of art back in the long long ago. They (I assume RikMaterik is a woman but I’ll just make it nebulous as to not call down the…
πΈ Favorite Nala Songs πΈ
One of the great more recent things that Death Cab for Cutie has done is release a (mostly) acoustic version of the entire “Asphalt Meadows” album. Some of the songs work so well in this format, especially this version of “Rand McNally”. “I Miss Strangers”, “Fragments From the Decade”, and “Here to Forever” work well…
From Nala’s Basementβ¦
So I’ve been cleaning and reorganizing the basement in preparation to bring all of the Transformers back out of storage to finally deal with them. (15 years or so in the making really!) I found 2 of my favorite early-mid 80s frame promo posters from DC and Marvel. Working in a comic shop in my…
π§ Death Cab for Cutie’s 2008 album “Narrow Stairs” π§
Every single track a gem that my personal lore directly relates to in some specific way. It is very difficult to pick a favorite track. “No Sunlight” is so perfect. “You Can Do Better Than Me” hits me so very hard in the gut. Right in the deep feels. “Long Division” is sublime. “I Will…
β Crisis on Infinite Creeks β
Speaking of Audrey Mok art, I was moving some files and saw this illustration she did a billion years ago and it brought sorta-kinda vibes of recent goth/punk/alt Tweek interpretations from @DucksAreDead, @sortasick, @twe6ks, and @Jacocoon_ and a few others. I do like teen/young adult Tweek sporting these looks. Hell, If I could illustrate I’d…
Gimme Garazeb Orrelios!
While I will go see The Mandalorian and Grogu, and I hope that it is far more than just a 90+ minute TV episode, I’m there to see Garazeb Orrelios in “live-action” more than anything. His 3D character model lacks a bit of the charm of Star Wars: Rebels‘ animated Zeb, but of course it…
β Crisis on Infinite Creeks β
Obviously, next to pure Craig and Tweek, Super Craig and Wonder Tweek are my favorite alternates. I’m fairly certain this little sketch is from the great Audry Mok. While rough, It just has Mok vibes! Artist: Audrey Mok – https://www.instagram.com/_audrey_mok
β Crisis on Infinite Creeks β
Iksiudodi dropped a few amazing younger and old man Creek images about 4 or 5 years ago but mostly seems to illustrate and paint other genre work. She’s done a few “Green Eggs and Ham” pieces that are great. Once again, an artists whose style would look great animated. No. Not just great. FANTASTIC! Her…
π§ Semisonic’s 1998 album “Feeling Strangely Fine” π§
Their only real major broad impact on the American music scene was 1998’s “Closing Time” from this very album. Pretty underrated band. I very much love “Made To Last”, “Gone To The Movies” and many other songs. I’ll be giving the 2023 album “Little Bif Of Sun” a spin for the first time later today.
