The Hawt Colin Appreciation Thread

    New thread for all discussion of Colin's hotness, plans to invate the Getyourcomics.com Batcave (Colincave?), plans to stalk Colin & co and/or steal their posters. I'll probably have to lock this thread in a little while, but until then no seriousness will be tolerated ;)

    (Any legitimate discussion or questions about Getyourcomics.com can go to the original thread)


    I will have to sign up for this once I have money again. Also, Colin be warned - after obtaining a pic of you last weekend you will most likely be stalked by Jack B Badd from now on! (I'll be tagging along but only to steal comic-related posters from your office...)

    I have dispatched a PM to herself with orders to withhold Stormwatch and The Authority GNs from yourself. Never let it be said your defamatory posts didn't have consequences... :mad:

    Edit: that was a bit harsh maybe... Hi Colin :o


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 11,138 Mod ✭✭✭✭Fysh


    Hehehe, I can put in a good word for you (having actually TALKED to the guy and stuff) if you ensure the timely passing on of certain GNs.

    (Incidentally, digging what I've read of Stormwatch so far)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,294 ✭✭✭Jack B. Badd


    I just consulted the dictionary and, lo and behold, being pimped out on the interweb by super-nerdified comic guy is the definition of "rock bottom".
    /me sighs


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 11,138 Mod ✭✭✭✭Fysh


    Righty ho, I guess that means you don't want a lend of anything else in my ownership then. (Seriously - Super-nerdified? I think not). :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,294 ✭✭✭Jack B. Badd


    I meant super-nerdified in a purely complimentary way, of course (Watch me backtrack, kiddies!). And lending me comics is a far cry from pimping me out tbh...

    Anyway, back to the topic at hand, which I believe was Hot Colin...I mean GetYourComics :o

    Well .. this thread got weird ..
    So .. Getyourcomics (now operating from a stalker-proof Batcave-like sub-basement miles beneath the city surface complete with Giant T-Rex (what the hell was that all about anyway, does anyone have ANY idea why Batman would have a giant T-Rex in his cave? I mean, the guy's crazy, sure .. but a Giant T-Rex is Joker-crazy, y'know?) and my preciousss posters have Louvre-like security measures now too.)

    See what you people have done? You've done turned me crazy(er).
    But this isn't exactly helping the thread get back on track either.

    So .. um.. those Getyourcomics guys huh? great service..

    Also, Hello Ms Badd, glad you enjoyed Stormwatch. Loved that series myself.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,294 ✭✭✭Jack B. Badd


    Oh sweet Jesus...my apologies. I'm not going to stalk anyone, I promise, so long as they keep sending me comics :)

    Stormwatch was fantastic imo, I'm dying for more of The Authority too but my cc says no... :(

    /me shakes fist at Fysh
    Stop trying to endanger my comic supply, you b*stard!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29 Miss Shelly


    For shame! Colin!
    Who are you to question the Batman?
    If he wants a T-Rex, you just have to accept that he gets a T-Rex!

    Okay.. Thread back on track..

    Na... I just wanted to talk about Batman... :p

    Ps... Ignor Colin, he just *adores* to be stalked!


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 4,772 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tree


    /me huggles miss shelly

    do you have the secret location of the posterful office?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 46 Longshadow


    Likes being stalked!?!
    What the ..! But .. em .. sigh .. It's true..
    Gets lonely down here in the Getyourcomics-Cave. Just me and T-Rex .. Late nights in the office .. Looking into his big, long extinct dino-eyes .. ahem .. um .. yeah, anyways ..
    The secret location of the cave? Afraid it's accessible only by secret passage after submarine journey to the depths of the Lee followed by ardous trials at the hands of my loyal Aarkvark guards.
    Honest that's true. Just ignore the address on the website. Merely a front.

    Colin, is that you I've seen on rooftops recently, a long-caped silhouette in a battle against...uh....people with no T-Rex in their lives?

    Cos if it's not you, that weirdo's hanging around the rooftops near my flat again. Goddamnit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,294 ✭✭✭Jack B. Badd


    Loyal Aarkvark guards do not scare the dedicated stalker...I would speculate.

    Hmmm...Mr. Moderator Man, perhaps dumping this silliness in a Hawt Colin Appreciation Thread would prevent this thread getting so sidetracked. Not that I'm telling you how to do you job or nothing :)


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 11,138 Mod ✭✭✭✭Fysh


    No sooner said than done.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,294 ✭✭✭Jack B. Badd


    Yay! And I appear less of a stalker by virtue of the fact that I didn't start the thread myself :D Mwahahahaha...cunning plans ftw!

    don't worry - your cute too. especially when passing out from marker fumes. You're just one HOT little potato right now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,294 ✭✭✭Jack B. Badd


    Maybe you could start a Tolerably Hawt Fysh Appreciation Thread, thumbninja? ;)

    ah no.. wait.. the fiesty friends of fysh forum.. yup. thats the one for me

    (was it yourself I met sunday morning btw?)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,294 ✭✭✭Jack B. Badd


    It was indeed - short, foxy, newly metalised. And I may have still looked a bit stunned from viewing the picture of the Adonis that is Hawt Colin :)
    Hehe...Tepid Temptation makes me giggle...poor Fysh.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 11,138 Mod ✭✭✭✭Fysh


    Surely the Coldblooded Casanova Cult would be the best way? (Or maybe that just makes sense in my head...)

    Well as the Colin's official Pimp..

    I must object to this thread.

    I'm not getting my money's worth here.

    Please abstain from all declarations until the Credit card transfers have been completed.

    Thank you.

    eh... discount off my Pimping? ... I don't know.

    Well only if somebody can tell me where to get a emerald/tree green opaque nail varnish... Then, and only then will I talk about discounting.

    My Ho' ain't cheap you know!


    :p

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,294 ✭✭✭Jack B. Badd


    Green nail varnish is ridiculously difficult to come by for some reason. I remember a few years ago I was looking for emerald nail varnish to match a dress and spent a few weeks looking in all the shops without finding anything. In the end the nearest I came to the colour was from a pound shop. Or you could try some of the cosmetics sites on the internet...but it may turn out to be the most expensive green nail varnish ever after shipping.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29 Miss Shelly


    I thought so...
    Ah well Tree, guess that means no discount! Sorry!

    I accept cash, and all major Credit Cards. ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 46 Longshadow


    My very own thread .... Aw gee .. thanks Fysh.. *GLARE*
    If it wasn't me on the rooftops about your flat before it will be now. Or I'll at least send a dozen loyal Aardvark guards to .. keep you awake at night with bizarre aardvark noises? I needs me better, more threatening minions I think. And the damned aadvarks are always trying to eat the comics in the office anyway.

    Mind you, if you don't think Aardvark guards are enough to keep away stalkers, Miss Shelly swings a mean pimp cane at non-paying stalkers.

    Speaking of which, Miss Shelly, No Discounts! Bad Shelly. My cut sucks enough as it is without you discounting folk. And I wouldn't even wear that green nail varnish, so it's a definite no.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,294 ✭✭✭Jack B. Badd


    I'll pay an extra 10% for Colin to wear the green nail varnish, Shelly!
    Seriously though, as the boss of a super-duper cool comic supplying enterprise you have to expect some adoring fans (read psychotic stalker-types) to want a piece of you. Honestly, I don't think anyone expected Fysh to be leading the stalker brigade though... Feel flattered, Colin, really ¬_¬
    P.s. Where did you come up with the username Longshadow? And what brand of toothpaste do you use? I need the info for my files...


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 11,138 Mod ✭✭✭✭Fysh


    I'm not so much a leader of the stalker brigade as an enabler for the rest of you, content to watch (and occasionally laugh with evil intent) from the sidelines.

    Also, release the winged monkeys!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,294 ✭✭✭Jack B. Badd


    Deny your love for Hawt Colin no longer, man! Join the ranks of the stalker brigade and help turn him into a gibbering paranoid wreck of a man :)

    he wnats to rule teh stalker brigade to trun them to his own uses

    but we belong to hawt colin.... *drool*

    can't find green nail varnish for love nor money, wanted some ages back to match my frog earrings, sadly it was not to be found. ive some nice blue we can use on him;....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,294 ✭✭✭Jack B. Badd


    Certain people could get me a Hawt Colin gift voucher for my up-coming birfday...
    /me eyeballs Tree


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 4,772 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tree


    i shall enter into private negotiations...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 46 Longshadow


    Hey Fysh, got your PM about becoming President of the Hawt Colin Stalker Brigade, I like some of your ideas, the pics of you in the 'official' t-shirt were a bit much though.
    Will discuss more details via PM.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 46 Longshadow


    And oh yeah, the name Longshadow is something a friend of mine happened to take to calling me the day I signed up to Boards. It's a faux-Indian kinda joke nickname (I'm 6 3") thing.
    Course all of the above is in my public profile..
    As for toothpaste, whatever I can manage from rummaging through the neighbours trash, mostly. This one time I found a really sweet oven cleaner that did the job real well. That was the week my last girlfriend left me, funnily enough.
    Ahhhh ... memories...

    The scent of desperation lingers in the air...

    In the meantime, I have invested in a new purty digital camera to facilitate the Hawt Colin stalking :)


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 11,138 Mod ✭✭✭✭Fysh


    Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa. whoa. This isn't my batman cup. But anyway. Who said "President"? I specifically said "tyrant and dictator for life". And those shirts have been printed up already so there's not a lot we can do about that, I'm afraid...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,294 ✭✭✭Jack B. Badd


    Hunting through Hawt Colin's garbage is its own reward :)


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 4,772 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tree


    i trust hawt colin was suitably traumatised on hallowe'en night?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,294 ✭✭✭Jack B. Badd


    That poor boy...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29 Miss Shelly


    :rolleyes:
    He'll get over it.
    He doesn't scare all that easily anymore... He's known me for a good few years now.
    Worked out all the fear of Crazy he had.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 46 Longshadow


    If I looked traumatized at all it's cos I've been off alcohol for almost two and a half months now. Going out just isn't the same sober.. .. Nothing is the same sober.
    *glassy stare of the addict*
    Luckily my 'back drinking' date roughly coincides with the Dublin Comic-Con. I may have a tradestand to run, but Goddammit I'll run it drunk, or at the very least hungover.
    Speaking of which, are people going to the pub quiz/get drunk the Friday night before? I'm presuming people are, right?

    'I don't need alcohol to have fun. I just need alcohol.'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,294 ✭✭✭Jack B. Badd


    There's at least me planning on heading up on Friday for the quiz, probably a few others too. It will depend on work and the financial situation for myself anyway...
    I trust a drunk Holin will be more inclined towards conversation and less likely to go tharn when I try to talk to him, yes? :rolleyes:


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 11,138 Mod ✭✭✭✭Fysh


    Hehehe, I'd forgotten that we re-christened him "Holin" the other night :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,294 ✭✭✭Jack B. Badd


    We? That was my flash of inspiration/inability to speak Engerlish, wasn't it?
