(spoiler warning) At the end of the movie, Miles quickly puts on clothes in order to hide his suit. Little does he know, those clothes belong to the “other” Miles. I designed some costume ideas for that scene!
Miles G is a bit darker and edgier than our Miles so I tried to reflect that in his clothing. He still likes puffer jackets, but maybe with a bit more influence from Uncle Aaron. Tried to incorporate some Prowler purple and green as well, as a nod towards Miles G’s identity. Option "D.alt" is closest to what ended up on-screen.
I think this was proper parental behavior from her actually
distress signal and Della?
Mayday, does anybody read me?
Well since I know it broke you, what about something involving Della (OG design) inspired by Never Love an Anchor for an art request?
Do you ever think of me and my two hands, and wonder why they never soothed your fevers? And wonder why They never tied your shoes? And wonder why They never held you gently? And wonder why They never had the chance to lose you?

cheating but, uh, a little sneak peak of an upcoming fic...?
Here it is, the RPG no one asked for: Buck Rogers XXVc (1990). If you’ve read about TSR’s largely idiotic history, you probably know at least some of the back story. The woman who ousted Gygax was the granddaughter of John F. Dille, the publisher of the Buck Rogers comic strip (not even the damn creator, Philip Francis Nowlan, just the guy who owned the strips), and in some egregious self-dealing, she had TSR develop a board game (1988) and this RPG out of the IP. She initially stuck her brother, Flint Dille, on it (he who was responsible for the Dragonstrike video and all those D&D products with audio CDs inside), but he couldn’t deliver, so it fell to more capable hands.
Again, no one wanted this. The main touchstone for Buck at that point was the corny two-season TV series (1979), and that was primarily a cheap knock-off of Star Wars. But the boss wants what the boss wants (I should note, however, that the popular theory that Star Frontiers was killed so that Buck could live doesn’t hold water — the dates don’t line up). The thing is, though — being unwanted doesn’t mean bad. Buck Roger XXVc…is not bad. Believe it or not.
It’s basically 2E D&D with a sci-fi skin. It isn’t elegant and there is no thematic unity between the setting and the mechanics and the ranged combat is a mess, but it hangs together all right. And there is a lot of fantastic setting stuff in here, supported by excellent art (the art is legit far better than your average 2E Forgotten Realms book). Hostile AI’s, billionaire’s downloading their consciousnesses, evil megacorporations, corrupt governments, freedom fighters, pirates. There’s a lot of good stuff that was basically smothered at birth because it was Buck Rogers and no one cared.
What I’m saying is that maybe we should be so quick to dismiss a game designed by Mike Pondsmith, even if it was for a DOA property.
