Tags: lost, lost season 4”FIND 815”
An online story set within the Lostverse chronicling the mysterious maritime adventure of an ex-Oceanic Airlines employee whose girlfriend was a flight attendant on Oceanic 815. Convinced his lover might be alive, Sam Thomas booked passage on a salvage vessel and set sail for the South Pacific; look (and listen) for the boat to get name-checked in the first three minutes of this week’s episode. ”Find 815” (and by extension Lost) was ingeniously promoted via product placement in Marvel Comics titles like Fantastic Four. Might I be singling out the Fantastic Four because their mythos might explain something about this week’s episode? Of course I am.
COMIC BOOKS
Minor Lost fixation; major Doc Jensen obsession. Upon boarding Oceanic 815 in Sydney, Hurley tossed Walt a Spanish-language superhero comic called Faster Friends, in which Green Lantern and the Flash were abducted by aliens, placed in an alien zoo, and fought polar bears. It was later tossed in the bonfire and destroyed. Qué lástima!RAY PARKER JR.
”When there’s something strange in your neighborhood…whoyagonnacall?” ”GHOSTBUSTERS!” Could I be anymore cryptic? Of course I can! To wit:DE-TERRITORIALIZATION
Fancy anthropological word found among the annotations jotted upon the blast-door map; used in a reference to the Island’s polar bears. I could tell you what it means, but I would need to understand it first, and that ain’t happening. Apparently, the indigenous intelligence has been recontextualized if not relocated — some might say re-territorialized — by the alien cultural force that is Lost.ANNIE
Ben’s best friend from his younger Dharma days. At some point, she disappeared. Maybe she died in the Purge. Maybe she became a guinea pig in a Dharma time-travel experiment. Kinda young for Ben, though, don’t you think? Creepy bastard.THE HYDRA STATION
Zoological facility where the Dharma Initiative conducted experiments on polar bears, sharks, and dolphins. Its logo resembles the mythological ”hydra,” a monster with many heads, all of them vaguely snaky.
