Lucifer: Collected TPB Covers

Lucifer: TPB Covers
Related to the Lucifer posts on The 7th and Last.
The covers of the Lucifer TPBs were pretty bland — in comparison to the Sandman ones, at any rate — but I love the series and want to feature it on this blog somehow, so the post is made.

Edgar Allan Poe: Annabel Lee (1849)

Annabel Lee
by Edgar Allan Poe | 1849

It was many and many a year ago,
   In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
   By the name of Annabel Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
   Than to love and be loved by me.

Batman: Animated Collection (2016)

Batman: Animated Collection (2016)
Dirs. Various (see individual paragraphs for respective credits)

Five animated films that showcase a number of different aspects of the Batman universe.

Alternatively, a money-grabbing collection from unconnected eras in Batman's animated history that don't complement each other much.

However you look at it, it's the only way to get three of the five films on Blu-ray in the UK without importing, so is perhaps noteworthy to those that prefer that particular format.

See below the cut for short musings on each one. I've listed them in the peculiar order that they're presented in the set, which isn't the order they were made or released and definitely isn't a very logical way in which to view them.

Stargate SG-1: Season 01-10 Mockups

SG-1: Hastily Made Mockups for Review Posts
Related to the Stargate posts on The 7th and Last blog.

I was unable to find existing cover art of acceptable size and quality for the SG-1 posts that I made on The 7th and Last blog, so I hastily made my own. They're uninspired, but they did what I needed them to do. Maybe they'll be of some use to someone; e.g., folder images (cropped to a square), or placeholders until something better can be found or created, etc, by the one in need.

If they can serve a non-profit purpose for you, use them however you wish. I don't own them. I simply modified and repurposed an existing image that I found on the internet. When you get right down to it, can anyone ever really 'own' something that's been posted on the internet?

You can throw a painted pebble into a pool of water but can't claim ownership of the ripples that occur (or the pebble, for that matter). One can only hope that folks who repost stuff don't be an asshole and use them for inappropriate means. But as always, let your conscience be your guide.
