A Damn Good Cup Of Coffee

It's been 20 years since David Lynch brought Twin Peaks, Agent Cooper and Laura Palmer to TV and there have been very few shows since that could match it's oddity. I'd say the The X-Files and, currently, Fringe.

To celebrate the milestone, a Twin Peaks 20th anniversary art exhibit is opening on February 12 in Los Angeles. I was alerted to the show on Scott Campbell's blog and his piece, Concentrating On The J's is above. The pieces below are from a preview by Hi-Fructose.

Geek Menagerie: Toronto Comic Arts Festival

I had a great time at the Toronto Comic Arts Festival on Saturday and I can't believe that I hadn't been before. I came home with a bag full of stuff (more on that later) and met a few of my favourite pop artists like Brandon Bird whose Elysium is above.

I had a great chat with Scott Campbell (above, Picnic With The Draculas) and found out that he is going to be having a show at Gallery 1988 with Olly Moss, which came up because I was wearing Moss' Spoilt tee.

I also got to see the real life version of the Time Machine poster from Ryan North of Dinosaur Comics. There were plenty of others so if are in Toronto the show is on again today. Check it out.

Skeleton Warrior Waterpark

That is one killer waterslide! So is that Jason (of Argonauts fame) crashing the party or is attacking him part of the fun for the skeletons? (Skeleton Warrior Waterpark via Scott Campbell)

Great Movie Showdowns

"Since the beginning of time, there has been struggle. The epic clash of being against being. Tyrannosaurus Rex vs. Triceratops. Giant Squid vs. the Sperm Whale. The Circle vs. the Square.

The struggle is forever. It makes the world turn around. These are the struggles that make us stop what we are doing and sort of check things out… wondering what the eff.

This is a chronicling of some of the greatest confrontations in FILM HISTORY. The greatest moments of melee. These are the GREAT SHOWDOWNS."

Pop artist Scott Campbell has started a tumblr showcasing his showdowns, adding a new one every day. These are just a few of my faves. (Link via Gallery 1988)

Mmm, nothing cures a hangover like a Lust For Life breakfast, with a heap of fried Iggys. From artist Scott Campbell via his show at Gallery1988. This gallery continues to melt my brain with concentrated awesomeness.
