Thor statue - Marvel Milestones - Diamond Select Toys - sculpted by Alterton Bizarre
Wetness has hits the streets and dampened the soil in a constant stream of mould. Look up through the crotch of the God of Thunder, throbbing a massive load with Mjolnir in his hands. No signs of laundry here. One costume, for all eternity and as far as the breastplates can hold out.
Dodging rain drops to dry the clothes?
Hotness of humpf - stick them not so wet clothes in the dryer and kick out a few more dinosaurs. Crank it up like the rumblings of a bad kebab. (Are there good ones?)
Pitter patter - tarp that Hills Hoist and marvel at the extra length of time it takes to squeeze them clothes dry without the aid of heat.
Sniffles... - why wash in the first place if the sweat stains aren't too noticeable?

Man with the Screaming Brain #1 (of 4); written by Bruce Campbell and David Goodman
Reaction over
DC comics's new logotype sent buzzes around with people trying to guess which laundry product the new look DC stamp best sold them. From discussions over full granule or powdered mix to the expected fragrance of flowers and honey as they pull their clothes out from the dryer, there was only one certainty. That the 70-year-old standing DC bullet, designed by Milton Glaser, is to be no more.
Such crazy fury was the dismay of ardent hockey fans clashing with comicbook fans, that the universes outside the confines of DC comics were affected. Even Dark Horse's
Man with the Screaming Brain looks set to cash in on the extreme of babble and gook of spectators shielding their eyes from the new light of branding.
Incidentally: "
Man with the Screaming Brain tells the story of a wealthy American businessman determined to exploit the crippled economy of a former Soviet state now torn between communist roots and capitalist greed. [Bruce] Campbell's character hits on the wrong gypsy girl and lands in the grip of a mad scientist determined to get rich off a twisted brain-transplant scheme worthy of Dr. Frankenstein."
The synergy of ruckus and conjecture has created a leap from one comic book company to another. Some people cannot handle discussions based purely on personal affection.

Wizard from the Groo PVC set
Authorities investigating their investigations into the baffling investigation of the engorged heads recently cornered a purple tunic wearing man in relation to the case. Brandishing a silver dull gourd of fluid mass, the man, who appears to be affecting a wizard like garb, was taken by surprise as the local arresting force descended upon his mid-weekly laundry service errand. Refusing to give in with ease, the man was noted to have taken a swig of his mysterious gourd before rambling and speaking in tongues, "Groo" being one of the words shouted.
Found on his person were passport-sized photos of people who have recently come under a most distressing condition. A condition wherein their heads amass to a disproportionately large size compared to the rest of their bodies. The resultant state a cause for much ridicule and misread signs as their heads bobble back and forth in a jerky manner. Those that have fallen victim have been derisively labelled "head knockers" in the public air space.
Cases with a magical element are rare. The investigators in the situation believe that the wizard in question holds at least one related answer to that of the large headed people. Their fixation on his Bob Hope-like chin a large factor in their fancy.
