Elvis: a sign of the coming of the Messianic Age?

Elvis: a sign of the coming of the Messianic Age? Yup, Elvis Memphimus Rex Rocandrollus. He has his own shrine in Jerusalem. And now Schmelvis resurrects the King. (Not to be confused with Schelvis , though, a tasty treat of a different order).

And of course, we can't forge Extreme Elvis (note: not for the faint of heart)

Shmelvis, hah? What could be bad?
I mean we've already got El Vez.

Elvis: He Da Mensch.
And his middle name was Aaron.
Conspiracy theorize that for awhile...

You mean to say this is what the King has been up to since he "died"?

The mind boggles...

And Elvis so loved the world that he died, fat and bloated, in a bathroom.
He very pointedly did not rise from the dead three days later, but was nonetheless seen across the world by various and sundry housewives...

Elvis in the machine, too...
