Friday's was one of the urRu / Mystics, Giant Muppets from Dark Crystal that aren't rotting birds. No, it's a not a specific one. Yes, they are hippies.
Well done to Gemma, who tells me Fizzgig was Brian Blessed. As we already knew.

Monday's was Dant'e Biasco as Rufio, sword-repository, near-sighted gynaecologist and BANGARANG of the Lost Boys from 1991's Hook!
Well done to Jessica, who points out that Biasco also voices Prince Zuko in Avatar: The Last Airbender. You know. That hot-headed red&black-themed change-of-heart would-be-leader. Hmm.

Wednesday's, for now, in an attempt to do something different, will be Doctor Who's That What? Focussing on guessing / suggesting characters from The BBC's Old Man In A Box series, and various tentatively linked other shows (Hitch-Hiker's Guide, Blake's 7, Casanova... you get it).

Also, apologies for quality of scans. I'm on a new laptop, with none of my old kit. Will try and remedy this... once I've moved house. Hmm. Timing.

Last Week's was Melody "Mels" Pond!
Well done to Alexander, who asks "If being conceived in the TARDIS amkes you half Time Lord, does being conceived in a submarine make you Aquaman?"

Friday's was animatronic / man in a suit midget-bear-shaman Logray The Ewok. Sortof from Star Wars.
Well done to Kiwi, who tells me Logray's operator was also Jabba The Hutt's tail.
So an Ewok is Jabba's butt. HUTT BUTT.

Friday's was DC's Phantom Stranger. Kind of a metaphysical counterpart of a benevolent Hobo.
Well done to Terrence Thirteen, who accuses The Stranger of being a smoke-bomb using charlatan. And by Terrence Thirteen, I actually mean Tamsin.

Monday's was Bubbles, Blossom & Buttercup, AKA The Powerpuff Girls!
Well done to Issy, who sent me a truly awesome Nigerian Prince Letter for last Monday's Howl. Only problem, was Issy suggested Howl in the first place. So then she sent me Terrifying Breasts.

Monday's was Thoth-Amon, archetype of the Noble Villain, sort-of-nemesis of Conan, and creation of Robert E Howard.
Well done to Ann, who reminded me that Thoth-Amon never, ever meets Conan, and his all-powerful ring ends up in... a Cthulu story. Huh. Continuity.

Last Week's was Auton Centutrion Rory! Well done to Tom, who gave me such a complete list of "partial Rory deaths", there's some on there I hadn't even considered, and I was up to two hands already.

Hey. Welcome back. Let's pretend nothing's changed.

Monday's was Waluigi, evil-twin of Mario's regular twin, Luigi, from many Nintendo games.
Well done to Dave, who explained to me:

Waluigi is the first step on the slippery slope of opposite alternates for *all* the mario universe characters.
This involves:
Princess Wapeach - who is short and fat, wears blue and has a moustache.
Princess Waisy - Who is eight foot tall, lanky, and stick-thin with stripey socks and a Danny Elfman soundtrach
Wowser - A cute lizard with rubber safety spikes, who throws bunches of flowers
Wayoshi - A fat gluttonous dinosaur with a giant mouth that eats everything in sight, and throws his poop at people
Woad - The less said, the better.

Haha, Waisy.
