Poll: You're favourite of these masters of horror?
Note: I don't condone Landis as a person... but it would have seemed strange to not include him here.

Columbo and the Knight (1984)
put me in the universe where Columbo ran through the 1980s and had a crossover episode with Knight Rider. I think they deserved it, and I am not just saying that because they're my two favorite Old Shows. @telebeast wrote a little fanfic blurb about it and I HAD to visualize it into a comic (which is also the longest comic I have finished thus far at five pages...), so writing credit goes to them.
Autism W!
#columbo#knight rider#art#michael knight#kitt#comic#highlight reel#crossover#telebeast#there are two small easter eggs here. can you find them. they were somehow not Entirely lost when i resized these for the public#this is what i mean when i say I Draw And It's Everyone Else's Problem. look at my INCREDIBLY niche crossover comic boy#if the knight rider fandom has like 12 people in it. how many of y'all have seen columbo#this comic is for like 4 people and me and phoenix are already two of them#niche is my specialty lets be real. weird niche obscure shit and ships nobody's paid attention to yet#not to suggest this is ship art. columbo has his wife and michael has his car lmfao#stylizing real people is EXTREMELY hard btw sorry for when they get off model. its partly a 'better imperfect than never finished' situatio#cant tell you how much i redrew some of these panels. weeps#this took me 2 weeks but i think i thumbnailed it all in may and the ideas been rollin around in my head since march#is anybody good at editing. please edit michael and columbo into an image together like its a screenshot. NOT generated. edited.#it would be so cool#ive drawn columbo a lot but i haven't drawn a lot of michaels. i was learning things about his outfit AS I WAS DOING THE DAMN#COLORS ON THIS. all the lines done. it was too late to change anything. i did all the lines and colored page by page#i realized my mistakes on like page 3. 1 and 2 were already done. it was Too Late.#imagine it though. them working a case together. switching between the more serious tone of columbo vs the goofier#action antics of michael and kitt. columbo being so impressed by Modern Technology. there's more i could say but phoenix may write#more of this crossover and i don't want to spoil it :'3#there's opportunity here though i swear. there's gold to be dug.#i like how kitt gets shading but columbo's junker peugeot doesn't. kitt looked wrong without any. columbo's car is matte and dirty#i also applied effects to this to make it look a little film-grainy and VHS like. some CRT TV vibes#the only question left is. did they put knight rider into columbo; or columbo into knight rider 🤔

all tangled up
[fanart of In Stars and Time]
#in stars and time#siffrin#siffrin isat#art#fanart#digital art#something about being torn between your kin and your family#i think the obvious influence here is that ive been playing slay the princess#but what struck me while drawing this was that it reminds me of norwegian classic pompel og pilt#a black and white puppet series that apparently traumatised a generation but i happily watched on vhs tape many times#every day i get a little closer to actually drawing the king

Glad Ranboo clarified that people who buy the VHS tapes are allowed to share stuff they find online 😭. From what they're saying its important to gen one so it would be a shame for all of that to be hidden in limited edition content. That also requires a VHS player.

Van Helsing: “Mina you should not be involved any further for safety’s sake—“
Jonathan, thinking: Yes, she shouldn’t be put in Dracula’s reach, good good good—
Van Helsing: “—helpful as you’ve been every step of the way, you do still have a chronic case of Being a Girl and so cannot be trusted to keep up with us men and our man-work.”
Jonathan, personal heroes including Mina, Scheherazade, and Mina again, grinding his teeth into dust: …That Is. :) A Way to Frame It. :)
#there’s also the social caste element in play I think#yes the Harkers have been instrumental#but they don’t have the numbers and resources on VH and the Suitor Squad do#likewise their general standing#quick friends or not; the Harkers feel they have to bite their tongues now (and in ensuing scenes) when the social more wedge gets driven#between them ~for their own good~#even so#you know these two are chafing#not looking forward to the next few days…#dracula#dracula daily#re: dracula#jonathan harker#abraham van helsing#mina harker

thinking about how mulder loves to get scully a gift, usually terribly heartfelt, even if disguised as something flippant:
the superbowl vhs tape he brings her when she wakes up from her coma in one breath (and her deadpan "i knew there was a reason to live")
tickets for a football game to watch together in irresistible
bringing her flowers to the hospital in memento mori (he lies, saying he stole them from a guy with broken legs to make her laugh)
the birthday keychain in tempus fugit (and when she finds a meaning to it, he claims "i just thought it was a pretty cool keychain")
that is a man who is always thinking about her.
#you can just picture him at the store thinking “oh boy she's gonna love this :)”#i think the superbowl vhs one chokes me up the most because he's trying so hard to play it cool when he had just lost her#and he needs to break the ice somehow because he hates to put those big feelings into words#he's more into saying what he means with touch and subtext#it's as if he needed SOMETHING off of the shelf at the store to say “i'm glad you're back. i missed you. i hope you're well”#so he goes with a dumbass VHS she is never going to watch. just to see her recognize his coded declaration of love.#and that exhausted smile she reserves for his antics#and it makes me tear up! still! thinking about it!#i know love languages are problematic but i do think there is something underrated about giving gifts as an act of love#of having your thoughts for someone being represented with a physical object. making that love tangible. you can touch it.#(it works very well on me because i tend to assume if you're out of sight you're not thinking about me)#(so looking at a little trinket someone gave me is like oh!!! they actually are thinking about me often. enough to find this Thing)#anyway. that is my emotional ramble for the evening. please enjoy#AND DISCLAIMER: i am sure there are other examples of him giving gifts i forgot and that there are more yet to come#but as a reminder i have only seen up to s5 ep 3 so! pls no spoilers even if i do tag this for the general public#okay promise? promise no spoilers in the tags? thank youuuuu mwah#the x files#txf#msr#fox mulder

incidentally, for anyone wondering about the current state of me playing vault hunters: I’ve been playing on a server with some friends for a few months and am level 89, have several absurdly expensive endgame items unlocked, and am going “I mean I technically don’t NEED a fission reactor, but I feel like there’s a point in every bee’s life where really, why not harness the unlimited power of nuclear energy?”
#vh talk#it seems this playthrough my self-imposed endgame goal is ‘make an obscene power grid’ so THAT’S WHAT I’M DOING#I can ALREADY generate way more power than even with my mek factories going I really NEED#but I’ve heard the digital miner is expensive and that’s my next long grind target#besides. it’s not about practicality. It’s about HARNESSING THE POWER OF THE ATOM#you understand.
