Costa Rica - Issue #0

Comic book style, here's the pre-story behind the actual story. In all its glory, I present to you Costa Rica Force X-Fantastivengers issue number ZERO! With six different covers so you can COLLECT 'EM ALL(tm)!!

Or, ya know, it's the trip, but we ain't quite made it to the land of milk and honey yet.



Mom leaving for work, my sister Christina heading to the car so that we could go to breakfast, then the airport. Mom only works a couple blocks away, so it's not uncommon for her to walk over there. That's my old elementary school in the background, now a high school for young and expecting mothers.



Christina at breakfast, using my lens as a mirror to clean something out of her teeth.



Allison gets a giant good-bye hug at the airport.



Charlotte Douglas International. This abstract shot says something about the eroding nature of America's image abroad, but I'm not sure exactly what it says about that. I need to talk to Melih for a while to work out the details.



During a showing of Cinderella Man. There were only three windows left open during the movie, and you see all three of them in this shot. I went with an uncharacteristic white border here, since it's a dark (but not swarmy) picture.



You must fill out paperwork that says you are not bringing oranges in your suitcase and you will not rape children while you are in Central America. I feel confident signing my name to that on both accounts. More on the creepy 'Do not have sex with children' campaign tomorrow... er, in Issue #1, that is! Stay tuned, true believers!!!

so i am on the phone with andy and melih and chris. somehow all on the same phone, saying the same thing three different times with each name substituted in as i talk to them. then out of the blue, or for this matter out of the X-Fantastivengers, came issue #0!!11! holy crap. there goes our four way conversation because issue #0 is out and there needs to be rumors started about issue #0.5 Is there going to be a post longhair pre-longhair type person on a dock somewhere???11?? I think he is going to eat it. Chris thinks issue #0.5 is going to eat it. Andy's head actually ate issue #0.5 so there is no more issue #0.5 and issue #1 will come out tomorrow as planned. Melih thinks that issue #0.5 ate issue #1 and andy's head is actually part of issue #1 so issue #0.5 owns andy's head. Chris is filing a copyrite notice on andy's head. Taylor thinks: "Hello chaps! Jolly good rainy afterthursday today," then eats issue #0.0.0.8.1 and chips saving the fish for a midnight snack. "Right--O!!1!"
