[ItsAllAboutMeMan] Plan 9 From Outer Space - 30 Years Later (comic book)

I was googling "plan 9 from outer space: 30 years later" - nobody wanted to talk about the comic books, only sell them. I found one entertaining thing. Man I was a funny guy back in 2003.

Wha happened?

"The Ballad of John and Yoko."

It's uncanny. Ed Wood spoke of 9 plans from outer space. John Lennon spoke
of 9 revolutions. To me, both are epistles in a living faith. Covers of
Revolution #9 continue to be recorded by artists such as:

Phish
The Shazam
Kurt Hoffman's Band of Weeds
The Durham Ox Singers

Plan Nine has inspired a number of sequels. Notable among them:

Plan 10 From Outer Space
Shakespeare's Plan 12 From Outer Space
Plan 19 From Outer Space
Plan 69 From Outer Space
Plan 9 From Outer Space - 30 Years Later (comic book)

But does our pope view these as canonical, or aprocophal, as early
Christian church leaders found the Gospel of Thomas (for example). Plan 69
is obviously blasphemous, but how about a papal bull on the others?
