Quote:  Less is not the same as none.Well hobbited. Quote: Quote: Well, I do enjoy PV stories but they have such a very small currency now, no more than three or four people really, so I don't feel I can indulge myself much. Quote: As one of those three to four people - feel free to indulge! Noted. The PVB is too big a distraction these days for it to be too regular an indulgence but it's nice to drop by occasionally. I do have another Untold Tales to post but I think I'm going to wait a few days and give it another pass before doing it. I suspect it might grow a little. Quote: Would you say they're easy to write due to the specific characters and your knowledge of them, or is it the genre itself? In other words, would you find it as easy to write a parody-superhero team with a different set of heroes? After so long there are plenty of established cast and situations to call back on in the Parodyverse. When I shifted Mumph, Vinnie, and the EEE cast to their own novels it took a bit more heavy lifting. Quote: Quote: That bit is just a matter of channeling my inner Mumphrey. Or inner Hooded Hood.Quote: I'd bet they would know to behave when your eyes flash green. Then it would be too late. I'd say ask my other kids but... what other kids? Quote: Quote: I need to establish how Vespiir and MLF function as part of the Juniors.Quote: I know you mentioned it the other day but don't even remember them becoming members. I'm going to have to go back and re-read recent back issues again. Not an unpleasant thing and I am still on holidays. I may need to check it out too, since I don;t remember the detail either. The events happened seperately in the UT issues featuring the most recent big line-up reshuffle. Quote: I'll have to go back and re-read the content with this in mind. To me at least there will always be a little tongue-in-cheek parody to 1960's sci-fi green skinned sex aliens Capt. Kirk and co meet to them. Despite your noble efforts to develop more than that. In retrospect I've only ever really spotlighted the Caphans three times, but each of those turned out to be a fairly major storyline. There was the Tenth Caphan stuff with Kaara, there was the conquest/liberation of Caph with their new emir, and there was the homecoming of the nine. We really need the Shoggoth to cough up the links for his Caphan history page. That site has been down for years now. Quote: Quote: I'm not sure if [the Caphans] work as well seperated from those incidents.Quote: Probably not as well, no. There is more to your overall body of work to draw on than the Caphans anyway, i would suggest. Failing that could you adapt the main theme to a whole new set of characters without the lingering issues that go with them?It's not really the Caphans that are the problem as the lack of a developed story world to drop them into so they can interact effectively. Maybe if I ever get to the point of novelising the Transworlds Challenge that won't be a problem. We'll see. Quote: Quote: I would surely love to check that my now-rather-ancient consent from Shep to use Dancer in stories was still current, though. She'd make an interesting lead character or a foil for Vinnie - and she'd bring Kerry and FA along too.Quote: Well...you did write her first story, (coincidentally I know this because I was just lurking in the depths of PV/BZL online history earlier - and Dancer's page is still available). That was me "outing" a long-time lurker. One of my better arrogant gestures, I suspect. As for Dancer's page being available, that's because it, like pages for Donar, DBS, Nats, Epitome and probably some others that slip my mind are all hosted in my website. They've been gathering dust on there for years. I did go clear out the links page over Christmas and sadly had to delete dead links to sites by Visionary, AG, Hatman (one of), Jason (World Class), Ziles, spiffy, ManMan, DarkHwk, Finny, the Shoggoth, and others. What we're left with is: The Hooded Hood's Homepage of Doom contains hundreds of Parodyverse stories, mostly from the Hooded Hood, including the long-running Untold Tales of the Lair Legion series. Dancer's Diner covers all of Dancer's career up to the summer of 2001, and one day we'll update it to now. Hatman's Archive contains stories and visual material about the capped crusader. Dark Knight at Deviant Art includes many of the works and words of Greg Burch. Dynamic Donar's Saga Site covers Donar's material to autumn 2001, with more to follow. Whitney's Journal: Writings After Dark covers the experiences of the Sorceress and links to other works of the authoress. Not for minors. Exile's Archives covers all but the most recent Exile exploits. The L! Archive offers the collected stories of the Librarian of the Moon Public Library, Chad and Ronnie, and Ham-Boy, the world's meatiest hero. CrazySugarFreakPage! is an incomplete collection of early and middle CSFB! stuff, with some more recent stuff to add in when I get round to it. The Nats Archives: The Mostly Complete Works of Bill Reed being the mostly complete works of Bill Reed. Mr Epitome's Case Files, the collected works of prolific chronicler Killer Shrike. De Brown Streak's Run features the high-speed exploits of mutate speedster Joshua J Clement. The Zemo Zeppelin, JJJ's collection of the adventures of Elizabeth Sweetwater Dewdrop Zemo and her companions. Collect 'em while you can. | |||||||
