masqthephlsphr's site, the most far-flung link I came across was this Brazilian weblog. We've had a few Brazilian posters at the board -- Vox Populi comes to mind. I think, but am not sure, that Filipe Rijo (or some such) was also Brazilian, and also that Filipe would better fit the demographics of "Oz," the mastermind behind the Ultimato weblog.
I do not use the word "mastermind" lightly. If you scroll down the weblog (and wait a while for the large number of graphics to load), you will come across one of the most delightful posts I have encountered on the internet. Apparently, Oz discovered this Flash-enabled South Park character generator, and then used it (with an assist from Photoshop) to generate South Park X-Men. He did Cyclops, Jean, Beast, Iceman and Wolverine. I could not resist trying a couple of my own.

Rogue
And, I couldn't resist.
Professor X
I left a comment on Oz's blog asking if it was all right for me to make an icon using his artwork; I have not yet received permission. (Considering that mine is the only comment not in Portugese, I'm not sure how confident I should be that I'll receive an answer.) The icon has been made and uploaded. I will however hold off on using it for a few days until I've received word back from Oz.

Date: 2003-10-15 09:52 am (UTC)I'm considering even branching out into foriegn politics . . . if I can find an Iain. Duncan from Highlander and Agent Smith from The Matrix up against Tony the Tiger and The Facts of Life's Blair.
I do, however, realize that any such iconographic primary will be swayed by the attractiveness of the various fandoms. I also realize that a lot of people are going to look at my Wesley Clark icon, ignore the rebus, and just think I'm attracted to the pretty boys. That's not true!
Ok. Maybe a little.
