I can't believe I don't see any posts about this. Bruce Boxleitner of Babylon 5 and Tron fame has been trying to get a fantasy show called Lantern City off the ground for a year now. He is doing everything backward. He has a good people committed to being in it, John Rhys-Davies, Mira Furlan, Tony Amendola, and more. He is trying to build a fan base before he even has a show, in particular Steampunk fans. They are even taking submissions of Steampunk artwork to be showcased on the show. Yeah you read that right, they are taking fan submissions for items they will showcase on the show.
I was at the Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo last weekend in and sat in on the Lantern City panel. It was great. The show sounds like it could be great. They announced an illustrated novel called Rise that will be released in July just before San Diego Comic Con. It is a prequel that takes place one hundred and fifteen years prior to the era that the show will be set in. You can pre-order it now at their website. They are giving away goodies with pre-orders like autographed copies and so forth. Anyway, go check out the website if you are a fan of BB, Steampunk, anyone in it, anything fantasy. It looks cool. Also, sign up for their site, like them on Facebook, follow them on Twitter. In this day and age numbers of people who sign up for those things can get them funding to make the show. I REALLY WANT TO SEE THIS SHOW ! ! ! ! Here is a link:

AND spread the word around this forum if you can. At least people should go look at the concept art and back story stuff. It sounds pretty interesting. There are also a few Boxleitner promo videos.
I am a huge Babylon 5 fan, a big Stargate fan, and I think we should all get involved in stuff like this. I hope that actors from both of these great franchises can keep coming on board. I can't believe I have forgotten to come to this forum for so long. I almost forgot to come over here and tell folks.
ALSO BABYLON 5 FANS - - - - -
IF YOU HAVEN'T HEARD THEY ARE DOING A BABYLON 5 20TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION AT PHOENIX CON starting, I believe, May 23rd. There are many stars of the show who are going to be in attendance. I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO upset that it doesn't look like I am going to make it.
POINTS OF THIS LONG POST - check out Lantern City and B5 20TH Anniversary Celebration at Phoenix Con.
