Hey, how about some more guest art? Andrew’s already posted this on the William Bazillion site, but for our birthdays our good friend Konstantin Pogorelov gave us this illustration of Mell and Andrew’s antihero, William Bazillion, together at last.
I love this so much. Konstantin’s website is here.

“Windsor McCay’s Little Nemo and the Rocket Sled of Doom“
There’s an obvious choice for a song parody here, but I’ve already used Elton John’s “Rocket Man” three times. Gotta think of something else …
Dashing through the snow
on a rocket-sled today!
O’er the fields we go
screaming all the way!
Mell is having fun,

while his insides turn to goo.
(Chorus)
Oh…
Rocket-sled, rocket-sled,
flying through the snow!
Oh what fun it is to ride
when you don’t know where you’ll go!
Rocket-sled, rocket-sled,
grab another scarf!
Put it over poor Dave’s mouth ’cause I think he’s gonna…
Oops, too late…
(Woo-hoo! My first Narbon filk!)
Yes, Edwin … come to the dark side …
What, with that rig they’re not sledding UP the hill?
Ever see “When Worlds Collide”?
The link no longer works. Does anyone know where I can read William Bazillion?
