Glad you liked the pinball tables, and cool to learn you are a Wrightson and Kaluta fan. There's this blog site, Crosseyed Cyclops, that has working links to tons of old comic books files available for free download. There you can find just about every 70s and 80s era comic book that has a cover or interior work by Kaluta, Wrightson, Nino, Jodloman, Yandoc, Redondo, and a slew of other great comic artists (near complete runs of House of Mystery, House of Secrets, Unexpected, etc.). The CC blog site also has the complete run of Tales Too Terrible To Tell 1950s horror reprint comics, which you mentioned caught your interest in the comment you left. Thanks for the album comments, btw; it's nice to know someone took a look.

I just realized I never properly thanked you - or even thanked you at all - for those neat pinball download messages. Amazing... if that Giger table existed in real life, I might have to look in to selling a kidney. Thanks for the info!

Here's a less ambitious yet still very fun table that gets its inspiration from the realm of 1980s era popular horror movie kitch:

Download Link: Pinball Originals :: Download The main FP simulator program to run the tables is at www.futurepinball.com. One more must-see table, if you dig this kind of thing, is the Aperture Science table (http://www.pinball-orihttp://www.pin...e&file_id=1173 ) It's an insane top of fun spinning off the old "AI gone berserk" theme, with overtones of Half-Life style government paranoia sprinkled in for flavor.

Happy Halloween!

Greetings Sam, Don't know if you like pinball games, if you do you should check out Future Pinball. This is a great free pinball simulator with a large number of high-quality tables created by fans and the authors of the program. Some of the tables are veritable visual and audial feasts, while others are paragons of pinball architectural design, some are both. Take a gander at the Li II table based on Giger's painting of the same name by the talented table designer Sphere:

The table can be download (for free) here:
Pinball Originals :: Download The hosting site does require you to register before you can download tables, but it isn't alot of hassle and there are no obligations or worries about your email being abused for spamming purposes - it's a cool site.
