Anybody ever find BOC references when least expected? I have almost vague memories of this from back in the day, but BOC appeared in comic book format in 1978, in a run of Defenders comics. The villian in this story was "Vera Gemini", she was the leader of the Cult of the Harvesters of Eyes. Source: www.cbr.com/defenders-blue-oyster-cult-homage/And the band makes a brief appearance at the top of this page, even. Kinda cool! Buck, the Demon Lord! Anyone else know of any other surprise/unexpected appearances?  |

This was a 3 issue run of Defenders, written by David Anthony Kraft, a big fan of the band. It’s Defenders 58-60.
I collect original comic book art along with comic books, and I desperately want to find this page.

I am scanning some archives for Bolle and I remember seeing comic books within this collection. I remember saying to Bolle this is so cool to see all these clippings.. Maybe ‘with approval’ I could scan a pic for you. Ask the boss:)😎 |

Who's who at the table? Obv.. Bloom off center left.. but who else? My best guess would be (from L to R) Buck, Eric, Allen, and Joe at the far right. Not sure who is to the left of Joe. Perhaps a young Gene Frenkle. |

Stumbled onto another unexpected reference while visiting Tucson this past weekend. We ate at a biker bar called Tiny's, after a hike in the Saguaro Nat'l Park, and noticed a cool (but likely coincidental) item on the menu:  |
