After months away from home (with occasional 12-24 hour visits), I'm finally in my own house, enjoying something resembling a summer vacation. I'm not too keen on doing anything that isn't goofing off, and I'm really okay with that, because I think I've earned it.
Until I feel recharged enough to write more than 100 words at a time, I present the following, taken by my friend Yuri at the comic book shop yesterday:
If you can't see the image for some reason, or you would like to emgiggen it to all its magnificent glory, here's a linky-link: http://imgur.com/yXOEOl.jpg
Is it sad that I’m much interested in what the Asterix figurine from the box behind the two looks like?
Enjoy your vacation, Wil!
I was happy to see over on G+ that you’re working on Memories of the Future Vol. 2. Sounds like you’ll need that rest first.
The geek in me approves that you used exactly 100 words, not counting the link. ๐ Enjoy your time off….you are completely right – you have earned it!!
Dr. Manhattan is wearing underwear?
Hilarious that your friend, Yuri, sent a pic that’s so obviously Yaoi.

Apparently Galactus feels a bit inferior standing next to Dr. Manhattan, that’s why he’s wearing a big hat.
Very cool…and thank Jaga they covered the Doc’s nether regions…I’m all for adult themed movies but there was just a bit too much blue wang being revealed in that flick.
That begs a question though – if there exists a Cape of Dicks…how about a Girdle of Dicks? ^_^
Hey! I know right where that is. That is the very comic shop that I frequent. Do you shop there as well, Wil?
Wil,
Do you still have that picture you took of me in my Matty Roth costume from DragonCon? You and Felicia were the only ones that got the costume and thusly, the only ones that got pictures of me!
It was AMAZING meeting you there, you most certainly made the con for me. Hope you enjoy your time off!

There are so many captions that come to mind . . . great pic! Thanks, Wil!

To an insider, this means something. To an outsider, this is very, VERY strange.
a romance between doctor manhattan and galactus? first lover’s spat we are all so very effed!!
I always thought Galactus was taller.
I’m picturing John Housman narrating the tagline for this post:
At Wheaton Wil, they goof-off the old fashioned way: they earn it.
Due to forced perspective, comic books cause characters to appear taller than they are in real life.
No wonder Galactus is such a douche, he probably has a Napoleon complex.
I love the teeny tiny violin player in the background.
He is … Doctor Manhattan has just scaled himself, accordingly.
Wil responded to a post I made! My life is complete ๐
Addicting, isn’t it?
Have a lovely Holiday Wil, I was just thinking about listening to some old Radio Free Burrito.
Do you think you will return to doing those some day ?
LOL! Excellent! And yes, much goofing off needed for Wheaton Wil, given his less than robust immune system. Take good care and rest. Don’t want that EBV to become permanent CFIDS. Voice of experience writing here. Rest, rest,rest. With significant breaks of goof-off. : )
Galactus may be all-powerful, but I think Dr. Manhattan could snuff him without a second thought. Galactus may eat planets and be amazingly tough, but Doc controls fundamental atomic forces. I think it’d be game over for Galactus.
I can’t even be tested for EBV: no antibody test works for me. Though I have to say that my borrowed immune system works fairly well, though it rules out most common tests. After 4 pneumonias in 5 months in 2009, I deserved my infused immunity, though the process sucks.
drink some beer
Why does it look like they’re about to do some ballroom dancing? ***warning, bad joke approaching*** Would that make them Geiger Rogers and Fred A-star-constellation?
As they stare lovingly into each others eyes…..
And I bet they’re dancing long after the music stops…
Wil, now that you have a little free time, I really think you should consider doing The Kevin Pollack Chat Show. He really does pretty excellent museum pieces that are hours long. I suppose that last sounded ominous which is not the intent. What I mean is that you have all the time you want to talk about whatever, and have more than a little fun. You have been involved in projects with significance to entertainment history, and have an exciting career working more independently. Pollack would give you the chance to talk about all of that. It is an interview I would really, really like to see, and I hope you will give it some consideration.
Enjoy your summer/fall vacation time. Get the mana regenerated and all that. If you get a chance, I think it would be kinda interesting to hear about some of your childhood summer vacation memories, as I don’t recall you writing about them (I have Happiest Days on audio and Just a Geek on paperback, but I don’t recall reading any summer vacation stories in either).
“Emgiggen”? More of that crazy computer-speak… ๐
