He really is Kirk... complete with wig!

[moonlettuce]

Check out the cover of SGA s2v1. Someone has commented on one of the lists that Sheppard's hair looks flat. So I click on the link, thinking 'Oh it can't be that-- Holy hell! Is that a wig?!' Seriously, that is not, in any way, shape or form, Joe Flanigan's hair.

And dear god, I've hit the bottom on the fandom by being able to type that with a straight face and mean it...

OMG! Its not Joe! Its someone pretending to be him! Thats wrong.

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

It's like the anti!Joe. You can tell it's the evil twin because of the hair.

From the look of the close up it's almost like an illustration, not a photo. So I think they got someone who's never seen the show to do it and they thought they'd better 'correct' it!

[wesleysgirl.livejournal.com]

I agree -- and I think it's possible that an actual photo was just photoshopped all to hell and back with that as the end result.

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

Sheppard's lack of fluffy hair makes Rodney cry!

[adannu.livejournal.com]

Yup. It's photoshopped and filtered to hell and gone seven ways to Sunday.

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

It's just oh so wrong.

[isiscolo.livejournal.com]

Yep, it's clearly an artist's deception conception.

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

It's like they didn't actually think the fans were going to take one look at Sheppard and burst out laughing ;)

[temaris.livejournal.com]

Because it's so *hard* to find pictures of Joe Flanigan in his current role...

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

They could have always gone for one of the half naked shots, instead. We could have lived with that...

[temaris.livejournal.com]

True.

Maybe they were making a statement: Flatland John or something.

Make the bad hair go away! It's scaring me!

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

*threatens the hair with sporks*

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

I can just see it now: "What's all this hair? That can't be right! Best give him a nice bowl cut instead..."

[temaris.livejournal.com]

It looks like some sort of 60's bowl cut. Even vaguely Brother Cadfael. All he needs is a tonsure and robe... God, if that's the cover for the single dvd I'd rather wait for the box set. Not least -- where the hell's McKay?

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

Hia hair is pastede on, yay!

All he needs is a tonsure and robe...

Ooh, monk!sex, with Rodney being all tempting and making him break his vows...

Not least -- where the hell's McKay?

He's out the back threatening the life of the person who did that to his boyfriend's hair ;)

[temaris.livejournal.com]

trinityofone wrote that already. I think it was her. John as catholic priest.

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

She did. But there should be more. Seriously. *g*

[xandutch.livejournal.com]

*shivers* Now that's a very disturbing haircut.

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

*grin* You said it ;)

[workerb.livejournal.com]

That's what happens to his hair when he doesn't have enough sex with Rodney! *g*

Whoever created that image must have thought, 'Okay, this guy is supposed to be military so he can't have hair standing up and defying gravity like that. I know, I'll flatten it! No one will ever notice!' Heh.

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

The people who did it are probably wondering what all the fuss is about. They're all, "It's hair! What's the problem?" And we're all, "It's not just hair! It's The Hair! Do not mess with The Hair!!"

[aretria.livejournal.com]

I've seen it a couple weeks ago. What a disaster.

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

I know! It's wrong and flat and wrong.

[aretria.livejournal.com]

If there ever was a proof of that saying... The hair makes the man...?? :P

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

*grin*

[beyondallreason.livejournal.com]

That is just so funny!

(and your zines are here - let me know what you want me to do with them - air or surface?)

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

It's just so flat and wrong *g*

(I can also grab them next time I see you. Saves you having to post them *smooch*)
