That's not an Alien!! That's Bat Boy!! (Sorry, my mom used to read WWN when I was a kid. I recognize that BS anywhere.) QuaruGamecube - You can't explain that! 14:57, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Cheers for that! I was wondering where it was from but didn't recognise it myself. Scarlet A.pngsshole 15:23, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
Though I can't seem to track down a copy of this exact image with Bat Boy's name attached to it. Scarlet A.pngsshole 15:29, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
I renamed this since it seems to not be an alien. Is that okay?? I also changed the link in the saloon bar. I got a weird error saying it was a file already on Wikipedia, is that going to break it?? Ancient Greek Pegasus icon.png 15:34, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
That's fine, it's just the shared repository thing. The software searches the images here first, if it doesn't find it it'll look in Wikimedia Commons. Was the commons image something that we would actually want to use? Scarlet A.pngsshole 15:40, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
I have never seen that precise image, but it clearly is, you can even see his wings wrapped around his body. They had to have posted hundreds of images of the damn thing. I loved it when Bat Boy, an alien, and Clinton met for a secret meeting in the White House. Pure awesomeness. QuaruGamecube - You can't explain that! 16:42, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, you can tell it's the exact same face although the change in size and resolution has done something with the eyes. The mouth is also cut off so it's not immediately obvious. Now, if I post the WP link to the guy whos picture it is, what would be the response: "Don't believe everything you read on Wikipedia"? "Open your mind"? Place your bets.

I don't know, but when posting make sure to comment on how great a source WeeklyWorldNews is. Way to fact check. You can also find the entire archive on google, so you can post to more than just Wikipedia. (There's at least one cover per year, would be easy to find) QuaruGamecube - You can't explain that! 16:51, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
Hmmm... that's an idea, I could play the sarcasm card and see if they get it. Scarlet A.pngsshole 17:18, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
