That looks really good. They really do look like members of the same family (!) often thats unconvincing in films. I like the muted colours.
The timeline has been pushed back really far..thats 1917?

If we look at the math again we have 2010-1917 = 93 years than I suspect Buck is going forward another 500 years to 1917+500 = 2417
Maybe.

Remember Flash got a very good film made of him in the 70s, with that excellent Queen soundtrack.
Its about time ole Buck got a film adaption too.

Just received an e-mail from our illustrious leader Kman. He says he just acquired the original Buck Rogers series.
It's available at a savings of $9.50 off the original retail price from Amazon.
For those who remember the iconic TV series, Buck Rogers, Felix Silla who played the eponymous sidekick, Twiki, passed away from pancreatic cancer today. And for those who know the show, but may not be aware, Gil Gerard and Felix Silla were close in their comradeship for one another having appeared at countless conventions together. Therefore, it’s worth mentioning enliving this thread with this obituary notice and mention. A lot of people simply liked the show. And diehard fans will visit his funeral, if that is permissible. RIP.
