What were they thinking????

I was speaking with someone about the crazy BOTP comics of the 70s... there was a set from the US and a set from the UK. The people who did them clearly weren't familiar with the Tasunoko art style (or even the Sandy Frank art style) and there are some utterly ridiculous things in there. I thought it might be fun to post some panels every so often, so that we can enjoy the results of their efforts.

From the US BOTP comics...

 

So... what is Zoltar doing? Exercising? He looks like he's trying to touch his toes! And I think the Great Spirit's monitor needs to be touched up with Zark's window cleaner...

Zoltar looks more like batman from the '60s/'70s. He's either doing toe touches or maybe some weird Spectran bowing ritual that we've never seen before.

Capturing Seven-Zark-Seven? Can we help?

Maybe, if we're really lucky, Zoltar will destroy 7zark7 too! Devil1

Can't you see the team going undercover to Spectra to make sure that this particular fiendish plan actually works.....

I'm thinking everyone should just be glad whoever made Zoltar's tights did a good job. It looks almost like a failed attempt to moon the galaxy. And, yes, I agree he has a batman look to him

Heck, the team would probable sell Zark to him for a nickel and give back ten cents change.


Posted by Transmute Jun on 01-05-2011 at 03:38:

Maybe Zoltar is trying to pick up an invisible box...

ROFL 2 That's a great addition, LB!

LOL ... I agree ... is it such a fiendish scheme, that of taking Zark out of the Team's way! They'd probably be doing the Team a favour!

... or maybe he has just puked on hearing Zark's name!

Zoltar is practicing the exercises they're going to force Zark to do until his arms fall off and he pops all of his bolts.

Lure him with Susan! That's hysterical!

TJ, remember this? I think it's been almost three years... I can't remember who you'd borrowed the book from though.

 


 


Posted by clouddancer on 01-05-2011 at 23:16:

LOL, that is great LB.

WHat I am wondering though is why is Princess lying on the ground in your modified edition?

Did she collapse upon hearing Mark's comment?

Um, because "smut" is harder to do when you're standing up...


Posted by Transmute Jun on 01-05-2011 at 23:50:

Oh come on now, LB! I happen to know that you've written smut in a variety of positions! Wink

That was actually from my book. Since then I've acquired most of the comics in color.

It was finding those on my hard drive that gave me the idea for this thread.

Thanks!
My favourite part of this comic is their flip-up visors -very handy for when they want to kiss! I don't understand why this useful helmet feature was never revealed in the series itself!

Well, previously innocent Gold-Key-Comic-Princess here has only just been exposed to fanfiction smut. I am sure she will get more creative soon... Laugh1
