He even confessed to it, telling everyone he was a spider from Mars. Don’t believe me? Check out this thread. Case closed.
He was also a spectacularly beautiful spider, but that goes without saying.

He did seem to shed his exoskeleton every once in a while.
Went through a lot of changes. : )
Hope this isn’t a naive question, but didn’t he have the wrong number of limbs? I had enough trouble taking him seriously as Goblin King in Labyrinth (1986).
Hate to disappoint you, but David Bowie was a nudibranch. https://bowiebranchia.tumblr.com/
Does this mean that lulu was a tiger ?
There’s even more under the “show this thread” link.
I wonder if she found Bowie pics and went looking for matching spiders, or found spider pics and looked for matching Bowies? Either way, really great job!
Following Ridana’s suggestion @ #5 there are lots more great combos. Also, in that thread “Amanda” notes that there’s a spider named for Bowie. Indeed, here’s the Wikipedia article on Heteropoda davidbowie, a species of Huntsman spiders from Malaysia. PZ is right after all.
“So where were the spiders

David Bowie – Ziggy Stardust.
@ davidc1, # 4: Also, Jeremiah was a bullfrog.
@8, It was originally Baron Silas Greenback was a bullfrog, but the tyrannical toad destroyed those lyrics during the course some fiendishly complicated scheme to become the ruler of the world. The rather dazed band — who found themselves transformed into Three Dogs over-Night as a side-effect of the Baron’s foiled scheme — still had to complete the album the next day, and so ad-libbed what little (very little) they could remember of those destroyed original lyrics.
True. Jeremiah was really a cane toad, but he heard what a bad reputation those fuckers have. And he was no friend of mine.
@9 Wasn’t he Danger mouse’s arch enemy ?
“Crumbs “
@9 Plus in what episode of DM did all this happen .Lol.
