A place for all things geek... ONCE UPON A GEEK is a Monday-Friday blog that focuses on a variety of geeky topics, including: comic books, Doctor Who, Star Wars (classic and legacy characters), role-playing, 80’s TV shows, and science fiction in general. However, any topic is really fair game. Don't forget to share your thoughts by adding comments!
By day, The Irredeemable Shag plays the part of a wealthy industrialist, playboy, and philanthropist. By night, he is a frightening creature that strikes terror into the hearts of criminals!
... or ...
maybe The Irredeemable Shag managed a comic book store for four years, and a movie theater megaplex for three years. Nowadays he's just a really vocal geek on THE UNIQUE GEEK, a semi-regular on the VIEWS FROM THE LONGBOX podcast, and runs the ONCE UPON A GEEK and FIRESTORM FAN blogs.
You decide...

I like Jeff Parker’s character selection better. Linus as Dr Manhattan is spot on and Snoopy can pull off the Comedian. Pigpen as Rorschach is a stretch, but you have to have a ‘recognizable’ character as R as you don’t see his face. Clearly Schroder as Oz is ideal. I suppose the thing i have a problem with in Evan Shaner’s drawing is Linus…he doesn’t have the abject cruelty to be the Comedian, remember, this is the same kid who hangs out in a pumpkin patch waiting for the Great Pumpkin…

i dunno, i love Linus’ angry, scrunched-up face as the Comedian…someone took his blanket. Its all a horrible joke…
