Heavy Metal is the American edition of Metal Hurlant, which is (was?) a French publication. Bandes dessinees (french/Belgian comics) are real loving good as a whole, with some of the world’s most popular comics like tin tin and asterix come from the world of french comics. It’s a shame they don’t get as much exposure in the English speaking world. Moebius is probably the only french comics artist widely known in the west and he was an unbelievable artist, but there are many more worthy of recognition. I really love Philipe Druillet’s style in particular.  E: here’s some moebius, his detail work is really loving incredible. I think this is from Arzak which got an English release just recently iirc.  And this from city of fire  RIP free hubcaps fucked around with this message at 15:16 on Apr 25, 2019 |

fakeaccount posted:My dad had a cb when I was growing up. He hardly ever used it because every time you turned it on, the only thing you would ever hear, ever, was some hillbilly 3 states away bragging about how he was transmitting at an insanely illegal power level that could reach the other side of the earth. If you were operating at a legal power level, your signal wouldn't reach him so you couldn't tell him to shut the gently caress up and that nobody cares. This post made me curious what was happening on CB these days, so I found livecbradio.com and that was basically the first thing I heard.

However, Super Van itself is awesome, some of the other van footage (especially the CB-heavy van convoy towards the end) is great, and the cameo of Charles Bukowski judging a wet T-shirt contest deserves to be seen. The Van is much better, if only because the Straight Arrow is hilarious and amazing. Watch this clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsV48ReyKoo

So, that overpowered cb rear end in a top hat is also a flat earther? (thats maybe the only way a cb radio, however overdriven, could reach "around" lol, the world.) otoh, if it wern't for cb and the like, I don't think we would have pocket computers that we can call people on and watch super hornio bros on at the same time.

When I was a kid and went grandmas house there was always a van backed into the driveway two houses down. Black with a giant dragon painted on the side. I want a van so bad.

You'd think they'd have some big speakers in there so they could open the doors and blast some Journey or whatever. my dad left behind a bunch of VAN WORLD magazines and one of the issues went into "the best sound system" or something like that. i'll see if i can dig it up at home.
