Frackles

The Frackles are a group of monsters who first appeared in the 1970 special The Great Santa Claus Switch as the henchmen of Cosmo Scam, the villain who tried to replace Santa Claus. and later on Frackles were reused or reworked for other projects, including The Muppet Show. And some changed to monsters or other creatures - such as Gonzo (originally known as a cigar box Frackle) who moved away from the Frackle label to become a "whatever".

Is it wrong to like Mandalorians and Delta Squad more than anything Karen Traviss has written in her SW career?

Not at all.

Karen Traviss did great worldbuilding for Mandalorian and Clone Trooper cultures. The problem was her incessant Jedi-bashing.

Anyone know where New Holland could be centered on the map? I don't know if it would be in California or in New England territory? I'm down for any guesses, geography's not much of my own forte.

"Dognapper's from Beyond!" (A Fic of Martians, Dead Dogs, and Intrigue)

I had an epiphany when getting into two new fandoms as of this month; the epiphany many fanfic authors get when once they delve into a series or book or movie or show they're interested in.... "How would these two series work if crossed over for a fic?" And that was where it hit me towards both the films, Mars Attacks and Frankenweenie; twin tributes made to classic horror/sci-fi by the macabre mind of Tim Burton. But one may ask me, how does one combine a dark comedy film about invading aliens with that of a loving tale of a boy and his undead pet. What can a sane mind, let alone, one with some standards do with such an idea. The answer is a little less complicated than one may think.

It starts off with a scouting crew, not an invasion force or mothership, but an ship meant for spying on Earth. Martian spies and their aids have descended on our little mudball to prepare for a future hostile takeover, their leader intending on making this a secret gift for his Grand Emperor back on Mars. However, they decide to start their campaign on one of the most "quaintest" suburban towns in America, New Holland. Cloaking their ship and disguising themselves, the Martians descend upon the town as its recovering from a prior week of mayhem, especially a certain pet rampage at the local fair. Heading up the group as a new family looking for a fresh start, the leader guises their trail of captured live specimens as the others observe human behavior for any "ill-looking effects" on the future interplanetary occupation. Civilians begin to slowly vanish from public eye as the leader's family becomes talk of the town, save for a few whom find his kin creepy. Victor Frankenstein, a bit shakened by his newfound friendships made with the other kids and keeping his reawakened dog alive, is a bit unnerved by the new family taking residence in the haunted Pretorius House. This has extended to his dog, who was terrified off the property by some unseen force after wandering off his leash.

Soon enough, his school then acquires a new science teacher; replacing the rather peeved gym teacher with a new specimen, a timid man named Claude Griffith. He's interconnected with the new family, yet, seems resentful and rather fearful of being mentioned within their vicinity. Investigating into this matter after discovering a few of his friends missing; Victor, Sparky, and the townsfolk soon find themselves embroiled in a scheme beyond the stars.

I intend for this tale to present every B-Movie and Burton trope up the wazoo (And maybe even beyond) but in a more wholesome manner that Frankenweenie had in its style. It will have science horror, friendship, peculiar romance, cow-explosions, and enough ACK-ACKS to shake a stick at. However, I am still outlining the matter and open for discussion with others on questions or conceptual ideas (I'm not one for saying no to criticism on a fic idea and mutually open for adding touches that might make it a bit improved.)

New Fic Idea (And further fandom obssessions update)

Due to some issues involving long-distance work with a co-writer on my previous VB fic, I have seen to it that it is put on hold until some semblance of interconnection with my co-writer is made. In the mean time, I have become obsessed with two fandoms, one is the works of Tim Burton...

And the works of Laika (Mostly Missing Link and the Boxtrolls!)

Due to having gotten into these new fandoms, I have a little idea involving a crossover of one property or so; unfortunately its of the B-Movie persuasion. What if the realm of Mars Attacks crosses into the wholesome realm of Frankenweenie? I have furthermore on the subject coming up in a later post this week but the concept felt too much not to share with everyone else. ACK! ACK! ACK! ACK! ACKACKACK! - Martian Translation for "Be prepared for the next fic post after this update!"

When compared to Burtons other work; what's your take on Mars Attacks?

I haven't actually seen the whole thing to give you a proper opinion 😅

But from what I have seen, it looks a bit intense. I'll have to look into it a little more

How old do you think Tim Drake, Damian, and Beryl are in Batman Incorporated? (I'm just asking for fic research purposes)

I mean first of all, which version of Batman Incorporated?

Batman Incorporated 2011 period is pretty clear in that Beryl is 17-18, Tim is 17 and Damian is 10. I'd have to reread Knight and Squire to get the exact references, but the impression I got from it had Beryl as very much implied to be doing her A-Levels during it and that the village expected Cyril to pay for her to go to university.

Batman Incorporated 2012 is very much the direct sequel to the pre-Flashpoint story. The ages might have shifted a little, but I would still pitch Beryl as 18, Tim as 16-17, and Damian as 10-11. That's the thing - Cyril dying derails all of Beryl's future plans right as she becomes an adult.

Batman Incorporated 2022 I have not read yet, but Beryl's still only in her early 20s here if she's matching her timeline to everyone else's.

I could see my hench befriending your oc, though he would probably try to wingman for Gary given that they're henchman.

if you think our vbros self inserts/OCS would get along, reblog this and I'll draw them hanging out :]
