Rocket Poppeteers poster from NYCC Hey. I'm posting here because you guys seem to know a lot about Rocket Poppeteers. I was at NY Comic-Con last weekend and Diamond comics was giving out these neat posters. But when I asked them when the comic was coming out, they said it was just some old stuff they found in the back of some warehouse. And they decided to bring them to the show because they thought people would get a kick out of 'em...
Thing is, the paper the posters were printed on really does seem old. It's stiff and thick, almost like cardboard, and it's yellowed and looks like it'd crack it you bent it. Not that I'll be bending mine. I'm planning to frame this puppy. I'm just wondering what the real story is behind this?

Wow, SirTimesNewRoman , great news!
This story is actually about to be discovered here - great that you join us!
Anyway, we don't actually know more about Rocket Poppeteer right now, but the good news is - the story is not the past, but the future, so you will be one of the first people, who will know about it.
Anyway, visit our wiki for initiation: http://super8.wikibruce.com/Home
(actually there were some things happened after the last update of that wiki, but you will get the image of the whole project by Steven Spielberg and JJ Abrams).
P.S. WOW I even realized, that we know now, how Red Cozmo looks like: he's a monkey !
No, perhaps, I'm wrong: Red Cozmo is the owner of those glowing red eyes and is an evil one.
We know now the accompanions of Coop: a cosmo girl, and a monkey (whose names are still unknown).
P.S. Now we need to get two another posters to collect the image of this Rocket Poppeteer mystery.

Red Eyes I hope that those red eyes don't belong to the Evil Kladrog, cause, if they do believe, my answer about being able to defeat it was totally wrong.

What do they mean, saying "Red Cozmo free ". Is "free" part of his nickname, or is it weird English?
I actually thought, Red Cozmo could be the monkey, but putting him along with "unknown danger" confuses me.
And if they just mean: poster with
* Red Cozmo (free?)
* Unknown Danger (eyes)
* Coop Gordon
* Rocket Poppeteers (5 Rockets),
then who the heck is this girl, and why is she not mentioned in the summary?
And why "Rocket Poppeteers radio hour"? Have we missed something?
*kosmo is getting crazy with all the questions, lol*

Where is the girl and the monkey now? And can anyone see the name of the girl on the suit? It says something that ends with "SSIE".

Red Cozmo When we got responses for the e-mails send to Captain Coop one of them was:
Sorry, kids!!! Captain "Coop" Cooper is out battling The Red Cozmo! Become a certified Rocket Poppeteers Astronaut and join the Race to Outer Space!
So the only way that I see for the monkey be the Red Cozmo, and be free, is if it was been controlling in some way, perhaps mind control .
Edit: The name on the suit of the spacegirl seems to be Cassie.

Yes, it could be reasonable, like:
poster with:
* Red Cozmo (beeing) free
and
* Unknown Danger threatening outer space.
This would implicate the competence of the fans about the pre-history, with Red Cozmo beeing enslaved by mind-controller.

NYCC Poster Blacklight? Ok, a few quick things
I am not surprised that they gave out things at NYCC comic con...
Second
Red Cosmo is free (from confinment I believe) and Unknown Danger (something we do not know about yet, maybe the Super 8 monster?)
Radio hour is probably the old style of television, a story told on the radio, or a talk show, BUT the wording and poste indicate that it is going to go above and beyong the radio, a 3 PART T.V SERIES??? Tape, movie? You can get what I am saying.
All three probably indiates the poster, BUT I believe it again is refering to a tape, video, show? The same thing they were refering to above. It could also be playing cards, but I highly doubt it.
Finaly, try a blacklight, yellow could mean a lemon stain or something, which works wonders under the black light. Try front and back.
Thats my 2 cents

I think it says "Jessie." I may be wrong, but wow. That is some serious NYCC swag. Anyways I like those eerie (probably spelled that wrong) eyes. Guess we may have a Super 8 radio station soon .
