Steampunk Disney Characters

A big collectible for folks that visit the Disney resorts often, are the pin sets that are available at the various Disney venues. I’d ignored the pins, being more distracted by the magic & wonderment that is DisneyWorld until my last trip in October. With a kid in tow, my pace through the park had […]

Old School Marvel: Giant-Size Man-Thing

Just surfing around looking at old Marvel comic book covers before heading home from work. Came across this one. I have the sense of humor of a 10 year old, because the title of this comic still makes me snicker.

The King’s Birthday

August 28th is Jack Kirby’s birthday, he would’ve been 91 years old today. Jack was and is still the King. His creations are having impact on both DC and Marvel Comic universes today and you still still see his influence artwork today. DC’s Final Crisis deals heavily with Kirby’s New Gods, something that I’m enjoying […]

Saturday Morning Wayback Machine: Captain Caveman & the Teen Angels

As folks who know me know, I enjoy many of the current cartoons out there. I dig Spongebob Squarepants and Foster’s Home of Imaginary Friends, I watch Avatar the Last Airbender, Teen Titans or Ben 10 whenever I can. But the kid in me still wants some of my old cartoon pals to have some […]

Star Wars – The Mighty Marvel Way

Back in the day Marvel Comics was the license holder for Star Wars comic book. In-between the movies, fans could read about the further adventures of the Luke, Han, Leia, Chewie and the droids. These stories were sometime really cool, sometimes totally off the wall, and all completely not considered part of the Star Wars […]

Amazing Spider-Man #562-563 – Marvel Comics Written by Bob Gale Covers and Pencils by Mike McKone It’s been a long, long time since I’ve bought an Amazing Spider-Man book.

Stan Winston, Effects Wizard and Creature Creation Genius, dead at 62

Stan Winston was a true wizard of special effects. On all levels of make-up, creature creation, and visual effects this guy was amazing. Without him movies such as Aliens, Batman Returns, Juraissic Park, Terminator 2, and many more wouldn’t have been even half as incredible. This was a man of true talent and who possessed […]
