I started reading them when they had comics online onthe Heroes website, maybe it was in between S1 and S2, and I just assumed that that's all that there ever was. :-B<BR/><BR/>Right! Locke makes Jack doubt himself, and visa versa as well. Like when Fenry was talking Locke into realising how Jack orders him around, etc.<BR/><BR/>The Swan had a regular door like the Arrow, that Kelvin would leave through when he went out with the hazmat suit on. Des followed him out that door too. I've wondered why the stations had two doors, but most likely just for safety reasons.<BR/><BR/>I think maybe a hint to Jacob/Boone/Locke might be that Jacob made Lockes' legs go numb so that Boone would have to go up in the rickety plane, and not Locke, so as to save Locke from getting killed. I dunno, just running the brain.Capcomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06841675195251354073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-72663525022818072192008-06-29T18:23:00.000-07:002008-06-29T18:23:00.000-07:00Capcom, there is probably a whole second series of...Capcom, there is probably a whole second series of HEROES comics on the web, so I'm sure the first set is archived. The book isn't a comic per se, its a hardback book with sketches and interviews, the stuff you'd find as extras on a DVD. Alan Moore's BLACK DOSSIER was a companion to THE LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMAN and was more like a scrapbook than anything else. Hard to explain the contents, they are so bizarre, best thing is to wiki it. No reason LOST can't do the same. I suppose I should have brought up Moore's book as a better example. He's like me, a crotchety old fart who likes books on a shelf and bemoans mouses and keyboards.<BR/><BR/>On another note, just about at the end of S1. I suppose the rift between Jack and Locke occur after Boone dies and I'm trying to pick up any parallels to more recent episodes. One small thing, Kate helped deliver Aaron, Kate has Aaron now and dreams of Claire. (Yea, Wayne the detective.) Past that the dynamic between Jack and Locke seems to be the main thread, which of course gets larger after they enter the Swan hatch (which I still would like to know why that Dharma station had a hatch, like the Pearl. Were they prone to sudden flooding?) Man of science, man of faith and all that. I think Locke makes Jack doubt himself. I can't really see much of Jacob anytime after the finding of the Beechcraft. Maybe Jacob leaves because Boone died?

The HEROES comic that ran online did involve at least one character not ever depicted on the show and many other pages-they were posted once a week-seemed to be outtakes for scenes that couldn't fit in the hour time slot. The comic enhancced the show, but I didn't miss anything. I just was happy that the format saw another medium. I am not certain why the LOST stuff couldn't be released in similar fashion, because to say they cannot until the show ends...well, why the eff post anything about Valenzetti and Sri Lanka to begin with? I know the Flight815 ARG was designed by another company last summer and thats why the freighter was called the Christiana. So maybe its more dealing with the individual designers of the ARGs, I don't know.<BR/><BR/>Capcom, Jacob could indeed be a walk-in. But I don't see him in Locke by the time he and Boone discover the Swan hatch and the Beechcraft, but for when Locke loses his leg sensations again. He might just be lying dormant or, like the Numbers, the info was tossed in for us to mull over throughout the series. Locke certainly shows an obsession as the first season progresses, but why would Jacob care about the hatch? He must know about all the Dharma activities. Did he just go back in the cabin for awhile? Could this be when Ben contained him by the ring of ash? <BR/><BR/>From what I know, there were scenes from the pilot onward about the future of the show, but the Adam & Eve skeletons with the two stones was supposedly the first real thread to keep following.Wayne Allen Salleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17199261942617339556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-37184612912231620242008-06-28T08:27:00.000-07:002008-06-28T08:27:00.000-07:00That is true Goose, I thought that was a sad story...That is true Goose, I thought that was a sad story when I read about it on Lostpedia last year.

Especially, laying out the ARG plots in print would be a great idea. I made something up like that for the 815 game, to explain it to my family, to help them understand why there was an Oceanic billboard in town and why I had been driving around trying to find it. <BR/><BR/>Damelton recently said that at times they think about a LOST comic of some kind, but that (paraphrasing badly here) it can't happen until the show is over so as not to do anyting that veers too far outside the show, or to create a suplementing of show info in another media. I really didn't understand that, since the Heroes online comic worked out really well, I thought (as far as I followed it anyway). <BR/><BR/>I think that TPTB said that as early as the Pilot ep, there is something that we missed that will come to light at the end. Adam and Eve don't show up until Ep#6, right? But you're right, TPTB do also often reference A&E as being a mile-marker of the fact that they've had parts of the end of the story in mind since the beginning.<BR/><BR/>I'm starting to warm up to your Jacob theory, Wayne, especially if I think about him in terms of those so-called "walk-ins" that are often talked about on the Art Bell show. Here's Wiki's definition: "[A] Walk-in is thought to be a person whose original soul has departed his or her body and been replaced with a new soul. It is based on a misunderstanding of an ancient concept described in Hinduism whose modern name originated in the Spiritualist faith and was popularized by the related, but not identical New Age movements and beliefs." <BR/><BR/>This thought might need a blog post investigation and theory, actually! :-D <BR/><BR/>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walk-inCapcomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06841675195251354073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-39430470879198877402008-06-27T08:09:00.000-07:002008-06-27T08:09:00.000-07:00Capcom, I still would like the ARG stuff collected...Capcom, I still would like the ARG stuff collected in a type of trade, like the online stuff about HEROES or Alan Moore's THE BLACK DOSSIER. I caught a few things on different blogs, but I'm more linear when it comes to things in my bookshelf, and I'd love stills from the Sri Lanka video or transcripts of the podcasts all in one place. Find815.com was pretty cool, though, and I was able to follow it, but I would still like to see graphics in book form. <BR/><BR/>Lost Goose: the Adam & Eve thing is the first real Easter Egg, the one that tells us that nothing was being made up as they went along with the show. In little ways, though, we had other hints. The previous episode was called "White Rabbit." I've told this to a few people, I think Jacob was in Locke for awhile simply so Locke would then watch and question Walt. In the last mobisode, Christian tells Vincent he "knows what to do," and then it basically becomes the opening scene of the show, with Vincent running past Jack. My thoughts are that Jacob went from Christian to Vincent to Locke. As you watch through that first arc, you really see Locke as a decent guy who is made to believe the Island cured him out of goodness. Then he gets all jumpy when he sees his ability to walk being taken away from him.Wayne Allen Salleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17199261942617339556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-43065839431468452922008-06-27T07:51:00.000-07:002008-06-27T07:51:00.000-07:00You're right Goose, the Mesopotamian game idea doe...You're right Goose, the Mesopotamian game idea does sound like the game in the fake explanation. That Anomymous poster sure has a good imagination, and picked the perfect fake story scenario to parallel LOST and get us all riled up. Dangitt. It's perfect, if it wasn't phony.<BR/><BR/>I'm really looking forward to the moment when it all clicks in our heads as we are watching the final few episodes, that will really be something. :-o <BR/><BR/>I never knew what an ARG was, before TLE and I was amazed how quickly the ARG pros dug out the clues and worked them out. Their paranoia (for lack of a better word) and diligence was what got the game solved, and often kept us way ahead of the people running the game! Although, that last part was pretty annoying, at those times when we had the clue answers but couldn't use them because the game had not released the application for the clues yet. :-p<BR/><BR/>BTW, Wayne, even if you can't look for clues and things on your dial-up, there will be enough blogs set up to follow the game, if there is one, so you will be able to follow along as it happens. That's what I do, not because of my computer, but because I'm not code savvy enough to figure stuff out. So I play vicariously via those who post all the action. :-D Although I did drive around Knoxville for over 50 miles looking for the dang billboard that ended up being put up about 1.5 miles from my house. :-pCapcomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06841675195251354073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-52641866892835918922008-06-27T06:08:00.000-07:002008-06-27T06:08:00.000-07:00I just watched the Pilot (part 2) again.

I got a really spooky feeling when John first meets Walt and tells him how backgammon was a game that dates back to Ancient Mesopotamia and how you have two clear cut sides - black and white. Obvious links there to the stones in Adam and Eves bodies and the link to Ancient Mesopotamia are two points that link to the anonymous guys version of The Travelers story. I think on the commentary somewhere Darlton mention that there is a clue in the first episodes that will make you realise when you get to the final episode that Lost has been cleverly plotted out all along.

So it never hurts to pass on Lostpedia info. I have not read their theories on that yet, so I will have to do that today, thanks! <BR/><BR/>I'm not sure how I feel about it being just a game that two guys are playing, because that's a little too close to it being like just a dream or the dreaded "snowglobe ending". But if it is, I'm sure that TPTB will make it juicy. I thought that too about how bad it would be if this Anon person who posted that, happened to hit the mark....OR, if he is someone who has inside info and an ax to grind, in revealing TPTB's secrets and spoilers (like Lostfan108).

Imagine the irony that even if this guys was deliberately lying to set people up, that his or her lie ends up being the truth? I'm gonna bookmark this website for the next couple of years until we know!! <BR/><BR/>Wasn't one of the creators (Lloyd Braun) of Lost's original idea that it was kind of like a Survivor type show on an island? <BR/><BR/>Sorry to bring things back full circle.

Thanks for 'splaining the relation between the comic and the Octagon site Maven. I wrote the post assuming that anyone who'd read it would know about that. :-B Yes, it's still curious as to why the Octagon site refers to it. It will be really neat if it turns out that TPTB were just giving kudos to the hard core fans again. But then again, wouldn't the game have been planned and set up a fair amount of time before the comic scans went online, and TPTB would have something else planned? Still suspicious for now....just because it's fun to be, heehee.<BR/><BR/>I agree about the old comics, there is a lot of interest in the old relics by fans of comic history, and sometimes you just want to pick up one of those old ones because they are neat looking or the story is bizarre enough, or there's a interedting history behind it. JJ and TPTB could be fans like that too.Capcomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06841675195251354073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-36341769356148211142008-06-23T01:08:00.000-07:002008-06-23T01:08:00.000-07:00Thanks wayne, I stand corrected about being influe...Thanks wayne, I stand corrected about being influenced by those older comics!

From my e...Maven, thanks for confirming that info. From my end, i.e., not knowing what all the Octagoners do, I really assumed that specific book was used in "Cabin Fever" simply because it was a great visual. In regards to the younger guys producing the show having seen the book, well, I had an uncle in Shelbyville who had quite a few comics from the 50s I saw in the 70s when he was in retirement. I have this book called Strange Mysteries#5 that I found at a con years ago; I wanted it only because it had been one my uncle had. On the cover, two scientists had goggles and one was visibly shaken, because above them he saw a white blob fighting a red devil kind of monster. The goggles were integral to the story, but the two creatures battling never appeared, except for on the cover. I've mentioned to a few people that LOST should do what HEROES has done and put all their online stuff into a book, I reazlly don't think it would be that hard. Even descriptions of the mobisodes with still shots. Never mind I'm on dial-up, I know people who watch the show who never owned a computer or know how to get a mobisode. Imagine trying to explain Christian telling Vincent he knew "what to do" and then see the beginning of the very first episode. You can, but the initial surprise is lost on the other person.Wayne Allen Salleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17199261942617339556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-8303007598054704052008-06-22T01:23:00.000-07:002008-06-22T01:23:00.000-07:00The second page is up of the Travelers.

The only vague connection I can see is that there are time travellers who visit us without us knowing (e.g Mr. Abbadon and Locke, Desmond in the background when Charlie is a child learning to swim etc.). <BR/><BR/>I think the writers of Lost were all a bit too young to have claimed influence from a book like this aren't they? Lindelof's age is similar to mine (mid 30s) and we grew up on Watchmen, way too young to be reading stuff like Mystery Tales. Maybe Abrams or Cuse are older, not sure. When the DVDs come out there might be commentary for this episode that is a bit more revealing, but I kind of doubt it. Nonetheless this is Lost and everything means something, but not everything means all that much.The Lost Goosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06643749261801685924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-21589837476858491222008-06-21T22:27:00.000-07:002008-06-21T22:27:00.000-07:00Yep, Wayne...that's where all this started -- with...Yep, Wayne...that's where all this started -- with the email and the "view page source" code. The Mystery Tales site was up right after "Cabin Fever" on May 8th. Everyone thought these Spaniards were super crazy fans willing to spend $400 to get this comic book. We all were grateful, of course, to see the scans! <BR/><BR/>Now that the coming ARG might have something to do with the comic, we all grew very suspicious of the site and/or the Spanish group.mavenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01159992386642158559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-67234535895115226902008-06-21T20:16:00.000-07:002008-06-21T20:16:00.000-07:00Ah! Now I understand. Everyone got some type of ...Ah! Now I understand. Everyone got some type of email because they signed up with Octagon. Now I get where some of this info was coming from. Thanks, Maven. That answers a few things like the "March has 32 Days" thing. I've never done the role playing game (or whatever) or watched the mobisodes, as I'm on dial-up.Wayne Allen Salleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17199261942617339556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-64868343881400944392008-06-21T20:10:00.000-07:002008-06-21T20:10:00.000-07:00I am torn about which way to lean on this "Travele...I am torn about which way to lean on this "Travelers" thing. On one hand, it could be just as the Spanish guys are telling us, and they just didn't get around to scanning in "The Travelers" (or, thinking a text story was not interesting enough, hadn't done it yet.) <BR/><BR/>On the other hand, Octagon's email did lead us directly to their site. (There's no way that line about March Has 32 Days could have hacked into that code page, right?) So we have to assume that the story figures into the new ARG somehow. <BR/><BR/>Like, Capcom, I'm very suspicious of the coincidence of the Mystery Tales site and the mention of the story in the email. The conspirator in me says that the Mystery Tales site was a set-up from the get go! But I'm willing to be very open about this and go with the "it's a small world" notion and wonder why the last story scanned in occurred only a few days before we all got the email. Is it coincidence or fate?

There are heaps of references to games and rules of conduct throughout the entire series. Personally I think Lost will end Watchmen style, taking us back to the beginning scene in some way or another. Maybe its all a time travel game and at the end they decide to restart the game! Who knows. Lets hope its something more imaginative than that.<BR/><BR/>As a funny aside, some of the bloggers over at mysterytales40 are now accusing the crazy spaniards of a cover up; that the story published is a photoshop :):):) Once you enter a paranoid conspiracy oriented mental frame its very hard to step out of it, even when the facts start to unravel your case. Very hard to talk people out of conspiracies; they just end up accusing you of being part of it!!The Lost Goosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06643749261801685924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-78184671150835738862008-06-21T16:23:00.000-07:002008-06-21T16:23:00.000-07:00Interesting!

Kind of reminded me of when Jeanie blinked a house across the street from Major Nelson's and moved into it in an instant, fully furnished. :o)<BR/><BR/>You know, I was wondering last night why a story about a couple guys playing a freaky game would be called The Travelers. I really hope that the fakers keep a low profile for this ARG. :-p<BR/><BR/>Right, the only reason to copy the Faster Friends comic was to check out the polar bear, the floating city under glass, and to see if there was anything else in there of importance, which there wasn't I don't think. This one most likely won't reveal too much, TPTB seem to take only bits and pieces of ideas from things that they like and then put them altogether.<BR/><BR/>Maybe the DeGroots were the first to get bumped off the island by the FDW, and if you go back to the island you age and die, so they are Adam and Eve? Who knows. I guess we'll have to wait and see.Capcomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06841675195251354073noreply@blogger.com
