Now back to your regularly scheduled Phalian.

Don't forget that if you've lost track of The Phantom and Alien, you can look back though the...

PHANTOM AND ALIEN
COMIC ARCHIVE THING

The story is going to take some interesting turns in the next few weeks, so stay tuned to P&A goings on! Or don't, if you prefer.

Thanks to Oddwen for writing stories for the past three weeks. I don't think I mentioned her before, but, yeah. Woot for Oddy!

So Oddwen is the "Pickles" McSpankypants! Were you spanked and pickeled before you were searched?

I love that stuff.

Ahem!

Alfredo Norman "Pickles" McSpankypants-Winthorpe of Long Grange South III Jr. and I are mere acquaintances, thank you. Any allegations of spanking or pickling are mere whispered rumors, started and spread by our enemies.

I am not going to say anything about this paper.

Hookbill the Goomba · 09-20-2011, 01:46 PM

Okay, you guys, some big news!!!

COMING THIS CHRISTMAS...

THE PHANTOM AND ALIEN... ANIMATED SERIES!!!

Or at least a pilot episode thereof.
Yes, I've been thinking about this for a while and with my brother doing animation at collage, it all seemed like the right time for it. So, this week, I'm going to start putting together a screen-play for a P&A animated pilot episode. It'll be about five minutes long.
The idea is that the series (if we think we can do a full series) will follow the story of Volume Three, albeit with some changes here and there for the different format. I think it will end up being about 10 episodes, each 5-7 minutes long.
Why am I telling you this instead of springing it on you unannounced like I usually do? Well, because we can't do this alone! Firstly, we need some voice talent! Secondly, I think this is something we should have fun with and I want as many suggestions about how to do this as possible.

As soon as I've got the script done for the pilot I'll let you guys know what character voices we'll need. I'll do Alien, of course

. Still deciding weather or not to get my older brother to do the voice of the Phantom as he did in all the previous animated specials, or to get the actual phantom. Unless he'd like to do some other voice.
So, take a look through Volume Three and think about a character you could do the voice for!

Legate of Amon Lanc · 09-20-2011, 02:58 PM

Now that would surely be amazing!

I, hmm, I would have to think about it, but I would definitely like to take part, whichever way. In the end, I think I could do almost anything. Unless there is, of course, a specific need for Legate voice which should be done by Legate.

I expect all people starting to fight for Mr. Mop <3 ! Otherwise, my probably most favourite people (aside from Mr. Mop) were in the previous part, so in case you wanted to make the Return of General Crock-Face (or somebody from his band), I claim him; otherwise, like I said, really not much of a preference, at least not right now. But I'll take a look at it...

Gwathagor · 09-20-2011, 03:07 PM

Looking forward to it.

Hookbill the Goomba · 09-25-2011, 04:08 PM

Time to shove some news in your eyes!

Now back to your regularly scheduled Phalian.

Don't forget that if you've lost track of The Phantom and Alien, you can look back though the...

PHANTOM AND ALIEN
COMIC ARCHIVE THING

I love Squatter's Alien costume. It's so... convincing!!

Galadriel55 · 09-25-2011, 06:00 PM

Oh. My. Bubbles.

When I saw the Legate picture (since I saw it before I saw the title) I thought it's about him taking over the Itaril/Tauriel role in the comming TH movies.

Oddwen · 09-25-2011, 08:50 PM

This.....this is a thing of beauty.

I hope not!

But this issue is really brilliant, I must say, and not just *that* article, but I really like the other one too! Perfect.

Hookbill the Goomba · 09-26-2011, 10:23 AM

We're still looking for more voice actors for the P&A show! If you're interested, let me know and I'll e-mail you the script.

Today I saw some of the first snippets of animation and it's looking pretty sweet.

Once we have enough people I'll start casting and we can really start to move on with this craziness.
These are the rolls we need to cast...

~ GERTRUDE

~ FR. FORMY

~ JOHN FILLIS

~ MR GROSS

~ SISTER MISTER

~ AUNT BOB

Hookbill the Goomba · 10-01-2011, 02:16 AM

NEWS!!

We've cast our first few characters for the Phantom and Alien animated series!
The part of Alien will be played by... Hookbill the Goomba.

The part of Peter Hampton / The Phantom will be played by Hookbill's brother Mattbill

And the part of Gertrude Hampton will be played by none other than Legate of Amon Lanc!

Gertrude is the estranged wife of Philip Hampton who is also a bit strange. She's sarcastic, easily annoyed and absolutely determined to get to Cardiac Street on the other side of the City.

Legate was kind enough to do a few audition tapes for Gertrude and this gave me an idea. If you're interested in doing a character (or more than one) and have the script, send me some recordings of your talents and we can get a good idea of what this is going to sound like.
