More like "Bloody cow!"
I bet those Green Peace guys are going to be on your tail for including a tortoise in your comic. They'll probably demand it be replaced with another human. The nerve of those guys...
We saw Tripods wading up the Thames, cutting through bridges as though they were paper; Waterloo Bridge, Westminister Bridge. One appeared above Big Ben. Ulla!

Yeah I caught that cliche'd duck joke (That was your intention...right?).
I didn't know there were tortoises in Britain, are there really? I'm an American, so being so is rather inconvenient when you're an H.G. Wells fan. Like not being able to go to the Jeff Wayne concerts and all that other good stuff in Britain. I could go on and on about all this "I wish I were there and not here" crap but I'll stop, unless you're interested in that sort of thing, which I doubt and wouldn't blame anyone for dozing off while they're reading this.

577-580
This episode has been a real pain in the arse, I almost gave up a couple of times, but it was a scene I had envisaged when I started doing this two years ago, so
HOW GOOD ARE YOU ON YOUR H. G. WELLS?
Five points to anyone who can tell me where the name ‘Nebogipfel ‘ comes from?
P.S. To any Americans out there; Yes I know the word Harbour in Pearl Harbor is spelt wrong, that was intentional, this is the English way of spelling harbour and how an English secretary would spell it.

Umm that was confusing. Not sure what or how was confusing to me as I am immensely confused as to what I'm confused about. And now I don't like England anymore because they attacked Pearl Harbo(u)r instead of the Japs. Just joking mate. I can see that the Timetraveller has really bad taste in women. Who in the world would love a morlock? And I spy the Terminator in the third screen in the cylinder, picture 586.
Not sure who it is you're talking about, the General Whatever-his-bloody-name-is. I'm taking a wild guess: "The Days of the Comet"?

Who in the world would love a morlock? Well basically I just wanted to tie up some loose ends; Answer some questions that Wells left hanging, such as: (1) At the end of The Time Machine, the Time-traveller never returned from his second journey, Why? Now you know. (2) The landing site of the first seven cylinders is well known, it has always bugged me that we're not told where the last three landed. now at least you know where number eight landed. I also know where the tenth cylinder will land but that's for later. Relyt wrote: Not sure who it is you're talking about, the General Whatever-his-bloody-name-is.

No not "The Days of the Comet", 'Nebogipfel' is from ................ well we'll see if anybody else knows first Relyt wrote: I can see that the Time-traveller has really bad taste in women.
OK, so he's been a bachelor for too long and his standards have slipped.

Give that man a coconut And as I don't think anybody is going to get the "who can tell me where the name ‘Nebogipfel ‘ comes from"? question, the answer is 'The Chronic Argonauts' by H G Wells. Here's a link to the ebook if anybody wants to read it http://gutenberg.net.au/ebooks06/0602911.txtIt's an interesting short story about time travel, written a few years before the Time Machine and is set in a little village in wales, If McTodd still visited this forum he would probably know the name Nebogipfel from Stephen Baxter's Time Machine sequel; The Time Ships, Baxter named one of the Morlocks Nebogipfel. Loz wrote: Interesting turn of events.
I don't know if anything will come of it, but if I ever want to do a sequel to Invasion this is probably one of the starting points.

Late to the party as usual...
I caught the Planet of the Apes (mis)quote right away, but was rather surprised by the statue they saw! Just can't get away from bad old Stan, eh?
Wow, I've heard a few zany Pearl Harbor conspiracies over the years, but that one trumps all of them! (I can spell it 'Harbor' because I'm American, right? )
Insert witty, yet philosophical remark here...

The two strange men dressed in black who turned up on my doorstep last Monday told me if I spelt it either way again I would be disappeared, I'm not sure what they meant by that

Were the two men "from the government?"
I can account for at least a few of the people at scifishock who witnessed the update. Not quite sure how many, but at least a few.

I think it's just as well I don't charge for this or they'd all be asking for their money back.

Well it sounds like you had a classic Men In Black case, people who make you believe things and threaten you not to spread ideas such as...I mean they are good people and two are definitely not standing behind me and watching every word I type.

Are the two who are not standing behind you called Agent 'K' and Agent 'J' by any chance?
