100 Covers – 2008

I’ve always loved a good comic book cover. They say a picture paints a thousand words. When you get your comic on the stands with hundreds of others, the cover should set yours apart, set the world on fire, or just lure the reader in. But a good comic cover can tell part of theContinue reading “100 Covers – 2008”

Doctor Who Recommendations- The Jodie Whitaker era

Under normal circumstances, I’d list the excellent, powerful, extremely significant episodes (or all of the above) and then honorable mentions for those that were still well enough above average to warrant viewing. To be honest, taking all of Series 11 and 12 into account from the Chris Chibnall/Jodie Whitaker era, I cannot give you aContinue reading “Doctor Who Recommendations- The Jodie Whitaker era”

Celebrating The Horwaths

This is just a humble blog to recognize 50 years of wedded bliss for Lynn and Dave Horwath. I think it’s a testament to true love when an assassin with such a kill record, and checkered past, with so many haunted memories, can leave the life behind to sweep a dancer off their feet andContinue reading “Celebrating The Horwaths”

It Is A Miracle

The day was like any other day in lockdown, or in my case, like any other day. Until I opened the fridge. I saw what looked like perhaps a sticker you’d find on a piece of fruit at the store, say a Chiquita banana sticker, or some such faldaral. But it wasn’t a sticker. Somehow,Continue reading “It Is A Miracle”

Food of the Gods –2007

This was another bizarre entry that fell into limbo, only being available on print in demand at Comixpress while they were in business. Maybe that’s for the best. (?) This one was odder than most. Loki, trickster god of Asgard, put a curse on a whole village, turning them into fruits and vegetables. Man sized,Continue reading “Food of the Gods –2007”

One Last Moment — 2006

Talk about dark. This book never really saw the light of day. It, like so many other of my older comics were available at a certain print on demand service called Comixpress, until it went out of business. The difference was, this one never got solicited to Diamond for whatever reason. That might have beenContinue reading “One Last Moment — 2006”

I Was a Superhero Survivor –fall 2003

I’ve talked a bit about this one before, as it was the first comic to ever lampoon the reality tv craze back in the day. The “show” begins in a cargo plane thousands of feet over New York, filled with contestants. One by one they jump through the opening of a giant device that altersContinue reading “I Was a Superhero Survivor –fall 2003”

When Realities Collide –spring, 2003

This was my shot at widespread sci fi satire. What if a warrior type like a Klingon from Star Trek had to contend with a cheesy, 1960’s low budget, perky, Japanese space superhero (think MST3K’s “Prince of Space”) at a huge galactic conference? It’s Deep Space Nine meets the Odd Couple. Space Prince zips aroundContinue reading “When Realities Collide –spring, 2003”

Doctor Who Recommendations- The Peter Capaldi era

Capaldi was 5 years old when Doctor Who premiered in 1963, so not only is he a huge fan, but he watched it from the start. Another dream come true. 1)Deep Breath. Powerful, well written, acted, directed. A very good start for this new Doctor starting his whole new life-cycle. This one has just aboutContinue reading “Doctor Who Recommendations- The Peter Capaldi era”
