Sweet Pickles ruled. When I was five (1979), Captain Kangaroo used to read the Sweet Pickles books on his show. They were really great for kids.

I can see why you'd think that about the Labyrinth comics, and I'm inclined to agree with you. My best educated guess is that Marvel was contracted to draw the comics to coincide with the movie's release, so they whipped them out as fast as they could without real consideration for quality...

I am also a HUGE fan of this album. At the time I got it (back around 1984 or 85), I also got the Muppet Musicians of Bremen album, which was also a real treasure for me. At one point when i was in the 4th grade, I was trying to stage a puppet show at school where we'd re-create the Frog Prince...

Thank you so much for sharing that with us. I can truly feel how special the moment must have been for you. It will definitely be a moment you'll carry with you for the rest of your days.

If you don't like this topic then don't participate in it, simple as that. There's plenty of threads in this forum to participate in that you'd probably enjoy, so don't waste your time complaining about those you don't. Nobody's forcing you to post, after all.

You'd be surprised how easy it is to get your hands on these comics, Labyrinth a bit moreso than Dark Crystal. When they were released in the 80s, they first came out in magazine format as Marvel Super Specials. Then they released the limited series of each book, which basically cut the Super...

I don't see any problem with having a thoughtful and creative discussion about an iconic character like this. No one's saying that Miss Piggy is actually having gender issues here. Instead, we're talking about a world of "What if's", which is actually a lot of fun. Countless characters in...

LXG has the single best intepretation of Jekyll and Hyde since Fredrick March performed the roles in the 1930s.

Hi there, this is lowercasegods' (Jay's) girlfriend, Laura. Just another tip: I sent the pictures individually with personal notes attached to each one begging for the signatures. I also included a self addressed stamped envelope with each picture (a must if you want autographs). I sent it to...

The way my girlfriend got contact info for the Muppet folk was actually through Muppet Central. She went to the FAQ section and found addresses to the Henson organization that led her right to them. Keep in mind that this was two years ago, before the Disney aquisition and just as Jerry Nelson...

Wanted to share this related story with you guys: A couple years ago my girlfriend told me she had this friend in the military who loved the Muppets. She said his birthday was coming up, and asked if I could draw him a few of the Muppet performers with their characters. I chose my favorites...

Your favorite Muppet film is The Dark Crystal and you hate animatronics? Well, you got my attention. Best of luck in finding a path towards your artistic goals. I don't know what it's like in Europe, but I can tell you from an American perspective that artistic goals are sometimes difficult to...

It's coming out November 2005.

I'm in complete agreement on that one, muh man. Burton's cinematic track record is hella impressive. And as a point of interest, keep an eye out for his next animated film, "The Corpse Bride." It's very much in the "Nightmare Before Christmas" mold, and it's based on an old Jewish folktale. I'm...

During the Will Smith period, they were also briefly considering Nicolas Cage for Wonka. God, is there anything they won't consider him for? He was almost Superman back when Tim Burton was gonna direct the new one a few years back, and narrowly missed getting cast as the Green Goblin in...

I'm willing to give Charlie and the Chocolate Factory a chance for a fistfull of reasons: Tim Burton, my favorite director, is helming the film, so it's bound to be cool for that alone. They're basing the film on the original book, not the previous movie with Gene Wilder (which is whi it'll be...

My girlfriend and I share your frustrations. We were infuriated by a news story we saw tonight where a town in Wisconsin has signed a bill allowing the rifle hunting of stray cats. Our world has been taking some pretty sick twists lately, and none so sick as its treatment of animals...

This is Pinhead, a life-size puppet I created around 2000. http://www.jayfosgitt.com/PhotoGallery/pinhead.html Its design is based on a cartoon character that I created back around 1988, called Captain Pinhead. Subsequently, in 2001, I created a new character for my comic strip ("Mother's...
