Forty-four Years Ago, in a Place Several Hours Away…

Sometimes reviled, sometimes nostalgically adored, this show encapsulates everything that was a variety show in the 1970s. I was eight years old on November 17, 1978, and this show will always have a place in my heart. You can judge if you wish, but unless you’ve experienced the dark times, or the plethora of variety specials and shows of the 70s, you just can’t really understand what it was like. Let go of your conscious, cynical self, and give it a view. If nothing else, it has the very first Boba Fett adventure, but I love it for so much more.

My 52nd Trip Around Our Star
Today I spent my time doing what I wanted to do. Oddly enough that didn’t involve art of any kind. OK, I did create two variations of an older design on my TeePublic shop but nothing too involved. While posting new items to my Ebay account and Etsy account, I watched some great movies and shows.

My first stop was to a Galaxy, Far, Far Away. I have a copy of the original release and it was just fun to recite the movie along with the actors.

Next I just had to play the Holiday Special. It’s a train wreck in slow motion full of talented people who are giving it their all, and I appreciate that. It’s one of those things that I unabashedly love and I enjoy admitting it

Directly after SW:THS I dove into the dark end of the pool and watched Batman (2022). It was a solid film, but it could have used a bit more editing for pacing. I think I could have gone with Tim Burton’s Batman and had a lot more fun, plus it would have given me an extra hour for something else.

After some Netflix shows like Arrow, the Flash, and Legacies I tucked Mrs. Multiverse in and fired up a Kung Fu classic from Shaw Brothers… Challenge of the Masters!
That is how I spent my 52nd trip around our local star.

The Marvel Treasury Edition was an oversized comic book that usually contained one hundred pages of comic classic goodness. Often these were old stories reprinted in a larger format or new content. Either way, they were the biggest bang for your buck.
