Reminds me when Marvel published their own parody magazine, Not Brand Ecch! Their cartoony parody of the Thunder God was called "Mighty Sore" and he lisped all over the place. (Well, Marvel only got the humor business done right during a short period, when the late, great Steve Gerber wrote for them.)
Seriously, at least the SyFyLis channel is doing something besides the CGI Bug Monster of the Week for their movies. If they play this right they might achieve the same kind of fame that Roger Corman and American-International did with their cheapjack drive-in movies. They could turn out Cap'n 'Murkah in a week and a half, to steal a march on the new theatrical movie, and then tap off two popular genre stories in one title, by calling their team-up movie The Aventuresome Brothers.
