Yes, this is the only official Lord Buckethead website in the Milky Way.
Lord Buckethead is an original iconic supervillain appearing in American comic books and the sci-fi cult-movie GREMLOIDS, a micro-budget production created by a film student a few years before Mel Brooks’ parody SPACE BALLS featuring Dark Hemet.
Yes, exactly, "Low Budget." The evil planet from which he comes does not enjoy the kind of financial support as is unfairly afforded to his fellow, so-called "more successful overlords."
Yes, Lord Buckethead, like Batman, Spider-Man, or James Bond is a fictional character who has been played by many different performers for over 30 years. The anonymous performers always change, but the character and title remain, passing the torch (and bucket) through the generations to new talent.
No, Lord Buckethead first started appearing as a joke candidate over 30 years ago in the United Kingdom, standing against conservative Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, in May and June 1987. That new direction of his intergalactic space lord character began then and has continued with subsequent elections and ancillary projects.
No. Since the 1980s, all official political campaigns in the UK are managed, financed, and performed exclusively by British citizens who have obtained legal permission from the American copyright holders. These licensees are never charged a fee.
Yes, but only when the original gang was available again.
No, regardless of who last performs as the character, Lord Buckethead is an ongoing British tradition now entering its 4th decade. His Lordship is not going anywhere.
Yes, the team includes original campaign volunteers as well as direct protégés of the original UK team. His Lordship’s original British “family” is dedicated to carry on the comedic legacy that their mentors started in the 1980s, and invites anyone to join them in the fun.
If enough of his American supporters back the idea, His Lordship will seriously consider it.
