Planet Buzz Today's Date:

The Peacemaker

“There is so much drama at the SDCC / It's kinda hard bein' J-D-O double B-S” Yeah, it doesn't rhyme or flow, but I'm not Hip Hop royalty like Snoop, what I am is the Peacemaker. I attended San Diego ComicCon 2009 with an eye to the strife that has been tearing our community apart and desire to so something about it. As Edmund Burke said, “It is necessary only for the good man to do nothing for evil to triumph” Well I don't know about being a good man, but I am a huge nerd and I was in my element.

My first try at geek diplomacy was a classic schism from my childhood. The Cybermen have long attempted to enslave mankind with their cybernetic augmentations and have been thwarted by The Doctor countless times. I locked the door to the TARDIS and threatened to never wear a bluetooth earpiece until these two talked.

Witness the birth of a new age of cooperation between Cybermen and Time Lords
thanks to me, The Peacemaker.

Now a little tipsy with power I set off to heal more bad blood through the convention halls by solving a problem more complicated than Maria and the Gaza Strip combined.

It was shaky at first, and I was unable to bring the two sides to the table unarmed, but from now on thanks to me, The Peacemaker, the stars are once more friendly for Trekking or Warring equally. A mutual dislike of Gates was the common ground I was able to play upon. What can I say? Baby steps.

With the Stars now safe I looked to the past, to a schism that has plagued the net for years and mankind even longer, but no more!

That's right, Ninjas and Pirates are officially cool with each other now, so you guys can just stop the debates. At this time there was a huge zombie event going on so there were none to be found to take the next step.
Next time, Gadget, next time.

Things were going so well I started to get cocky leading me to allowing a Green Lantern to take this pic (His sheer force of willpower surged my camera's circuits so I apologize for the blurriness.)

Thanks to The Peacemaker, Ghostbusters and Spirits have laid down their red ties and unlicensed nuclear accelerators in a show of brotherhood. I sensed a bit of trepidation from The Spirit, which I attribute to Dr. Venkman flaunting the fact that he's got all that sequel money that Denny Colt will never see.

The Peacemaking business took off from there. I bridged the gap between brokenhearted smugglers and princesses:

I know.

Dogs and cats.

Contrary to popular belief, no mass hysteria was reported.

Rodents Of Unusual Size

Sadly I think Britney is now trapped in a Pokeball somewhere.

Here's where things got tricky. It's hard to run the peace talks when one side of the table won't say anything and the other side won't shut up.

Fortunately in the end, Silent Bob and Wade Wilson
aka
The Merc with The Mouth
worked out their differences once they agreed that the Daredevil movie sucked.

I bought these three a Coke.

And now both Classic Jazz and Bebop can teach the world to sing
in perfect harmony.

Sometimes it's just a matter of getting them to agree on the little things.

Sailor Mars and The God of War, agreed on their favorite colors and that opened the channels of communication about the whole Mars/Ares issue in general.

Other times it's a matter of incremental acceptance.

Indiana Jones was not okay with any actual reptiles, but we think that Solid Snake put him on the road to finally showing a little backbone.

At first there was a bit of squabbling about 2d vs. 3d.

...but once they got down to some space captain shoptalk Captain Zapp Brannigan told me later that Captain EO showed him “another part of me.” Take that as you will, but I think it's a step in the right direction.

Sometimes it's a generational thing.

After a lecture and demo on manscaping from Claire, Logan agreed that shoulder hair might not be the best look. Of course a minute after this was taken all of Logan's arm hair grew back, the ramifications of which seemed to terrify
Miss Bennet.

If there's two things I as The Peacemaker like they are 80's cartoons and honey and thus a two-fer.

Bumblebees and Bears have had their issues over the sweet sticky stuff, but the battle is no more thanks to The Peacemaker. I especially liked that Cheer Bear is cool enough to throw a little flavor in hand style, these three were later seen at the open bar for Road Trip: Beer Pong and calling each other bro a lot.

Finally as a Peacemaker one has to look to the future...

Mr. Todd and Mrs. Lovett assured Alice that despite his appearance and behavior Tim Burton is a sweetheart and she has nothing to fear in working with him in their upcoming project.

I have to say now I understand why Jimmy Carter does it. It feels good to bring both sides to the table and walk away knowing I've made the world a better place. I want to thank everyone who made my debut as The Peacemaker possible, every single person in costume was truly a pleasure and game for anything, Konstantine Anthony and Magen Callaghan did much of the photography for me as well as a lot of character wrangling and concepts. I look forward to my next chance to play The Peacemaker.
