A hero's origin isn't always interesting...

Recently my sister sent over the... let's call them "Pre-Production" photos from the some-say brilliant but flawed and ill-fated Captain Bloomers Video I submitted to MTV years ago when I was attempting to get onto Who Wants To Be A Superhero.

Looking at them now, I realize that I clearly had too much time on my hands.

But also a real talent for convincing otherwise rational people to do stupid things.

I also thought that if you weren't familiar with us or what this was really for, you might think you stumbled upon some behind the scenes photos from a under-funded, poorly done gay porn shoot.

So without further blathering, with little explanation and in no particular order...

 I'm here for the audition, they told me to wear clean underwear?

 Reviewing the script by (an uncredited) Terrence Malick.
Rick is apparently "adjusting his HoJo's".

 Costume Fitting.

Costume Fitting or Wedgie in Progress, I'm not sure.
Perhaps more "HoJo Adjusting"?

Getting motivational talk from my co-star, a student of the "You Can Pick 

Your Nose, You Can Pick Your Friends" Academy of Drama.

 Top or Bottom?

Ready for my closeup.

Mentally preparing for the epic Battle in a Suburban Living Room 

scene which will eventually win us Best Oscar for Poor Editing.

My Co-Star adjusting his "HoJo's".

Preparing for the next scene by listening to FallOut Boy.

Just like Sir Ian McKellen.

Rick strikes a pose for the Publicity Photos.

I cant even imagine what's happening here at all.

And that's a wrap...a very, very gay wrap.
