    I want a print of Campbell's "Lost Showdowns (1)." Smokey has never looked more adorable.

    Brilliant artwork, but in a twist of cruel irony. The Polar bear/Smoke monster depicts the exact way the show has gone over the last few seasons....

    More confusing and up its own arse!!!!

    In the words of Monty Pythons Life of Brian.......GET ON WITH IT!!

    These completely kick ass. Number 3 and number 6 are pure awesome. Two is bizarre beyond belief but cool all the same, and number 1 is sheer outrageous.

    I really want to write the role-playing game that uses this stuff as art.

    I'm quite embarrassed that I thought about the combat Porsche from Leonard Part VI! My first thought was of Space Battleship Yamato! The land carrier reminded me of Area 88. Can someone please confirm that the supertanker chopper is going up a jump ramp to leap over the 18 wheeler?

    That is a really ambitious eagle in number-8. And I love the idea that some really well made boats would be left floating to become little ecosystem rafts like number-5. With bunnies in them!

    Reminds me of stuff that appeared in Popular Mechanics in the '50s -- especially that land battleship.

    @spiritkittykat: yeah, and it looks to be a pretty direct play for play remake. it looks cool... in any case it's worth a shot in my book, gladiators and barbarians are pretty great. even David Carradine agrees:
