    The Dr Who pic #11 looks a lot like "Androvax" from The Sarah Jane Adventures "Prisoner of the Judoon" #lost

    @HalOfBorg: Wow, it really, REALLY does. It'll be interesting to see whether they start cross pollinating the other way, with stuff introduced in SJA turning up in the core show. Androvax was a fun villain too, he could stand another appearance. #lost

    #11 and #12 have a slogan that sounds like a name for a Mind in Ian Banks' Culture stuff.

    And I covet #5 something awful. #robots

    In reply to Just what is “Stitchpunk,” Anyway?
    I love how everything that incorporates an interesting little bit of new imagery is immediately labeled a new genre and the -punk suffix is added. Cyber- and Steampunk I'm perfectly willing to legitimize as genres dealing with particular eras and applications of technology. Biopunk, I'm more on the fence about, but this? Really? Come ON. Oh yeah, and dieselpunk is nothing more than a fledgling aesthetic. Why people are so eager to pigeonhole and genre-fy something, I don't know.

    I'd have to disagree with #3. The original short that 9 was based on was created years before LBP came on the scene.
