Vampirella 1996

As a passing fan of Vampirella I had no idea as to what to expect from this film. I discovered Vampirella in the early 80’s when my favorite comic book shop called Comics and Comix in Citrus Heights, California, was offering back issues of the magazine for one dollar a piece. I picked up a […]

Digital Drawing: Black Panther

From rough sketch to finish, this T’Challa was great fun to render. I attempted a few different background elements but nothing could compete with the Panther God from Black Panther’s first appearance in the Fantastic Four comic. I wanted a Jack Kirby element and that fit the bill perfectly. While not technically perfect for a […]

Fantastic Four (1994) Season Two

I like most things that I talk about, I really do, and the animated adventures of the Fantastic Four is no exception. I can find redeeming qualities in most things that other can trash without batting an eyelash. The second season of the animated Fantastic Four (94) is some of the best adaptations of the […]

Why Do I Even Bother?

Sometimes I ask myself why I even bother doing this, or anything on the internet. I never come up with a definitive answer, yet I keep going on. While I appreciate those who do actually engage with me, I find it a bit depressing that nobody beyond my regulars even bother. I have two or […]

King Arthur (2004)

We watched 2004’s King Arthur for the first time, and it wasn’t that bad. While there were a few, ok more than a few, leaps in historical happenings, it really was a decent retelling of the legend of the Once and Future King. I liked how the movie ties the legend in with the end […]

The Man of Tomorrow

While I wasn’t keen on the design style of this animated film, I knew I was going to watch it either way. I had to preface this mini review with that statement in order to admit how very mistaken I was. I LOVE this type of animation… I just had to give it a chance […]
