BLACK FRIDAY COMC PICKUPS - PART 57: LOG ART

AFTER THE KITTY CAT, THIS IS MAYBE MY SECOND FAVORITE OF THE UNEXPECTED PICKUPS FROM MY BLACK FRIDAY BINGE. ONCE AGAIN THIS IS A RANDOM FIND FROM ENTERING IN SOMETHING I LIKE IN THE SEARCH BAR, SETTING THE SORT TO LOWEST PRICE FIRST AND ROLLING THE DICE. WHY THIS WAS SO CHEAP I'LL NEVER KNOW

2019 RITTENHOUSE TWIN PEAKS ARCHIVES ORIGINAL STARS OF TWIN PEAKS - CATHERINE COULSON AS MARGARET LANTERMAN

TWIN PEAKS IS PRETTY MUCH MY FAVORITE TV SHOW IN NO SMALL PART BECAUSE ABC'S SABOTAGE AND CANCELLATION* DESTROYED MY TRUST IN MODERN TELEVISION AND I NEVER ALLOWED MYSELF TO GET INVESTED IN ANY DRAMA AFTER THAT UNLESS IT HAD ALREADY COMPLETED THEIR RUN**. I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO PICK UP A COMPLETE SET (WITH AUTOGRAPH!) OF THE 1991 STAR PICS TWIN PEAKS SET FOR CHEAP AT THE FLEA MARKET BACK IN THE DAY BUT HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO TRACK DOWN ANY OF THE RECENT SETS AS I DON'T HAVE AN LCS THAT DOES MUCH NON-SPORT. BUYING ONLINE IS A GREAT WAY TO PICK UP STUFF YOU CAN'T FIND AND A SEARCH FOR TWIN PEAKS GAVE ME THIS GEM. THIS IS AN INSERT FROM THE 2019 ARCHIVES SET AND IT LOOKS GREAT. IT'S A 27 CARD SET FEATURING GIGANTIC PORTRAITS OF THE CAST FROM THE FIRST TWO SEASONS ON CANVAS TEXTURE CARD STOCK. IT LOOKS REALLY GOOD IN HAND AND THE WHOLE SET WOULD LOOK GREAT IN PAGES. I WILL NOT BE COLLECTING THE COMPLETE SET UNLESS I FIND A GOOD PLACE TO BUY NON-SPORTS CARDS AS THE REST OF THE SET IS SUPER EXPENSIVE ON COMC

MARGARET LANTERMAN AKA THE LOG LADY IS SO ICONIC SHE'S PRACTICALLY TWIN PEAKS' MASCOT. SHE'S THE EPITOME OF AN ODDBALL QUIRKY CHARACTER WHO ACTUALLY KNOWS WAAAAAY MORE THAN SHE'S LETTING ON. I'M SO HAPPY SHE WAS ABLE TO DO A SMALL BUT IMPORTANT PART IN SEASON THREE. THE SHOW ISN'T THE SAME WITHOUT HER. COULSON ALSO DID A LOT OF WORK BEHIND THE CAMERA. SHE WAS ASSISTANT DIRECTOR ON ERASERHEAD AND WORKED A LOT BEHIND THE SCENES WITH LYNCH ON THAT FILM. SHE WAS ALSO AN ASSISTANT ON MANY OTHER MOVIES INCLUDING A COUPLE OF MY FAVORITES WRATH OF KHAN AND NIGHT ON EARTH. I DO HAVE A COULSON CARD FROM MY STAR PICS TWIN PEAKS SET BUT I'M HAPPY TO PICK UP ANOTHER ONE, ESPECIALLY ONE THIS NICE LOOKING

* MY BELOVED AUDREY HORNE GOT BLOWED UP IN A CLIFFHANGER ENDING AND THEN YOU CANCEL THE DAMN PROGRAM??? FUCK YOU ABC

** THE X-FILES IS A NOTABLE EXCEPTION, BUT THAT SHOW WORKED AS A STAND-ALONE MONSTER OF THE WEEK PROGRAM THAT YOU COULD HOP IN AND OUT OF AND STILL ENJOY. THIS IS ALSO SOME FORSHADOWING FOR A FUTURE BLACK FRIDAY POST
