Thanks to the phantom for his stories over the last few weeks! They made my Sundays much easier!

Rest assured, I shall be going on a long and harsh campaign of nagging my brother into animating the Phantom and Alien cartoon!! Perhaps we were a little ambitious with it, but I still hope it turns out okay. If not, we can always fall back on Oddwen's puppet theatre!

Hmm, I do remember reading this on LOTR Wiki:

Quote:

On an excerpt from a letter of Tolkien's, a new Ainu shall enter Arda upon the side of Melkor, and will aid him in battle. This Ainu is said to have a special relationship with Mandos, although it is not known whether or not he is a Vala or Maia. He is said to be held equal with Sauron, and his name was given by Christopher Tolkien as Gilthrang.

Can Helmost the Dreadfully Evil confirm any connection with this Gilthrang guy? Like, is he working as the Walk/Don't Walk signal or something?

Also, dinosaurs? Is the Dagor Dagorath going to involve dinosaur cavalry? It really should.

And pterosaur Air Force as well.

Things are getting pretty crazy up here in The Downer's printing offices. Something special really should be done for issue #300, but we're not sure what yet. If you want to do something, please do! There's only so much our vast staff can do.

An article about the phantom, for a change!

And I'd take that gold if it was chocolate! What are you people thinking?! It's like being in Willy Wonka's!

I've been misquoted! I've smelled the phantom's head. He has a nice, lovely smelling head, I assure you...

The animation is coming along! It might even be ready before the moot!
Yeah, sorry everyone. I guess I didn't realise how labour intensive animating was. And it is about 5 minutes long, which for someone whose barely animated before is a tall order. We'll see how it turns out, though.
