Check the link: http://home.earthlink.net/~peredhil/Invaders.html

:p


Oh I DEFINITELY think it's intentional -- he's copied it right down to the "bumps" underneath! In fact, when I saw that panel in Pluto, I thought -- "that flying saucer doesn't look like it "fits" somehow. It's drawn like something out of the 50's." So I was correct in my thinking!

I don't remember The Invaders, though. My first sci-fi TV show was Men in Space (1959-1960 -- so it was before Astro Boy). And of course at school we'd all gather to watch the early space flights (but I'm off topic -- sorry!). I'm going to check out The Invaders, looks cool, in a Lost in Space kind of way.

It does look too old to be in there, it probably should have been designed to look a bit more futuristic

Well you know where this design came from or where it was copied?
wikipedia datafeed.
Did they make it up or copy it? But the Invaders is from the Spy education times of the 60's and 70's....
Now this proves that pluto is real Sci-Fi. Astro would really love that toy.
Like to get your hands on that saucer eh? :lol: :lol:

Excellent Pluto/Atom Manga Movie Video

Postby AprilSeven » 15 years ago

I think this person nailed the drama of Atom's part in Pluto. The music is PERFECT (IMHO)

I don't want to watch it, it's going to be a spoiler for me since i haven't read the entire series yet. I saw a little bit of it and it did nail Atom's part and the music was pretty good.
