When Bishop first appeared in comic books back in 1992, I had no idea at the time that he would become one of my favorite X-Men. I honestly thought he would become one of those throwaway characters that they put in just to later be written out. But no...Bishop has survived the ages and has been around in comic books and animation for... Read more →

  It's movie blockbuster Xmas movie season and there are several movies I would like to see.  Creed 2, Ralph Breaks the Internet (with the kids of course), and....Aquaman?! Yes, believe it or not, I actually have some expectation to watching "Aquaman". Yes, we have been beat up and berated by subpar DC movies with subpar villains...and... Read more →

  Whew...I don't know what's more disturbing about the Deathlok character. The fact that multiple iterations from alternate timelines keep showing up in the mainstream Marvel Universe (616), or the fact that most of the Deathloks were built upon Black Men.  It was like the Deathlok program was the "Tuskegee Experiment" of the near Marvel...

   This one may be a big miss for most collectors.  For one thing, most collectors won't even know who this character is...even though he's been around since 1969.  Although several people have worn this costume, the Prowler is at most times known to be Hobie Brown, small-time criminal turned later into a sometimes anti-hero. Why... Read more →

   Going through my back catalog, I came across this action figure.  John Diggle as a character is a great partner/best friend to Green Arrow in the long-running CW series "Arrow".  When this action figure was announced, I was cool with getting a plain clothes supporting character...this figure may have changed that line of thinking. ...

   I did a Pulp Fiction intro with my Marsellus Wallace review, so I will just keep this intro praising the works of Samuel L. Jackson.  Sam Jackson is hands down the most iconic American actor in cinema today.  Not only has Jackson played in a bajillion movies, he is the only actor I know whose likeness has graced the most number of...

  Next year (2019) will mark the 25th anniversary of one of Quentin Tarantino's cult classic movies, "Pulp Fiction". No matter what you may have thought of it or how it may have left you feeling after watching it, chances are it left a mark on you somehow. One of the standout characters in the movie was crime boss Marsellus Wallace played... Read more →

  No way I'm missing this...a 1/6th scale Shuri and Wakandan Throne have gone up for Pre-order at SideshowToys.com and other online retailers. Like most Hot Toys, we will be waiting at least a year before we have the Shuri figure in our hands, but the Wakandan Throne is due out before the holidays this year.       ... Read more →

  When it was announced that Donald Glover was going to play young Lando Calrissian, I knew they had made the right choice. It may be named Solo, but I have a feeling that Glover will shine as Lando and take away attention from whoever the other guy is playing Han Solo.  Much like Black Panther did in "Captain America: Civil...

   I'm ashamed to say that even though Green Lantern John Stewart is one of my favorite characters, I don't know much about his time spent on the "Mosaic" world. This was written in the early nineties where I didn't have much money towards comic books and the money I did have usually went to Marvel. It turns out the Mosaic World was a... Read more →
