Nickelodeon Should Bring the Super Shredder Back to TMNT
As I sit down to write this, it is late on the eve of the debut of Nickelodeon's new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon, which-- as I see it-- officially kicks off a new era for the fab four. Certainly, IDW has been doing some rather intriguing things with their...
Spider-man? No, It’s Spider-Stan!
So, Spider-man has a new movie coming out, and... Zzz... Okay, so admittedly, Spider-man has been on the outs with me ever since that whole "sold my marriage to the devil" thing Marvel did to nearly ruin him. And honestly? A reboot isn't really what I want in a new...
Check Out My Interview with Mega Man Writer Ian Flynn at The Mega Man Network
Over at The Mega Man Network, we've just posted a recent interview I conducted with Ian Flynn, a writer of many hats at Archie Comics. His works include Sonic the Hedgehog, companion title Sonic Universe, and the Archie superhero revival known as The New Crusaders,...
Review: Boom Studios’ Garfield Comic Book, Issues #1 & 2
I have something of a confession to make: I am a fan of Garfield. And to celebrate his 34th birthday today, I'm doing a little something different. It's an odd sort of confession to make, perhaps, but given the fact that many people seem to have taken a dislike to the...
Revenge of the 90’s: The Fate of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
The first two posts of my impromptu "Revenge of the 90's" weekend (which is now admittedly running over into the week) were not particularly revenge-like. In one, we learned of First 4 Figures taking Sonic the Hedgehog back to his roots, while the other gave us a...
Coming to San Diego Comic-Con: Everything You Want, But Cannot Have
The 2010 San Diego Comic-Con is this week, and as always, it brings with it lots of exclusive toys for attendees to buy. This is often a painful endeavor for those who cannot go, as aftermarket prices can be simply insane, but this year seems worse than ever! Topless...
I Love Galvatron…
The Experiment. by ~Transformers-Mosaic on deviantART ...he's so craaaaaazay. --LBD "Nytetrayn"
Free Comic Book Day!
Can't believe I nearly forgot to post about this... today is FREE COMIC BOOK DAY! Go out and get some free comics while you still can! Or check with your local participating comic book store (there's a locator through the link); some will be celebrating tomorrow, too....
The 25 Greatest Moments in TMNT History
The year 2009 has come to its inevitable end, and as we all know by now, so too has the end of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles as we knew them come. As such, this marks the perfect time for looking back at the past 25 years of Turtle Power and deciding which moments...
Turtles Forever: The End of an Era
Just a friendly reminder: Turtles Forever, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles anniversary animated movie featuring different versions of the fab four teaming together will air tomorrow, November 21st, at 10am on CW-4Kids. Here is a little preview: This well and truly...
The Amazing Spider-man vs. the Raping Rapscallion?
Actually, it's not a new supervillain who has people up in arms over the latest Amazing Spider-man story, but rather an old one who has returned in the "Brand New Day" continuity. In case anyone's forgotten, I'm really no fan of this weird retconning of Spider-man. In...
Can’t Update Now… Wiki-ing…
Sorry, folks, don't think I'll be updating tonight, except to bring you what's just sucked away my night: The DC Animated Universe Wiki, consisting of all sorts of wonderful facts and figures from Batman: The Animated Series' "The Cat and the Claw, part 1" to "On...
“Hitler is Pissed About Disney Buying Marvel”
Via Topless Robot. You know how it goes by now, I'm sure: I'm surprised that he cares so strongly about what they do to Captain America, aka Mr. "I Punched Hitler Today, What Did You Do?" And with all the rumors of Walt Disney being a Nazi sympathizer, or at least an...
Sometimes…
...four Ninja Turtles just aren't enough. Those in attendance at San Diego Comic-Con last month were also able to experience a sneak preview, thus yielding the following recorded voice samples of the new "old" Turtles from the '87 cartoon: Finally, Dr. Spengler from...
Just a Reminder…
Free Comic Book Day is tomorrow! If you can, don't miss out! --LBD "Nytetrayn"
I Made a Difference!
Or, at least, that's what I'll believe so long as David "Walky" Willis doesn't say otherwise. A few weeks ago, he posted this TNI Shortpacked comic over at Toy News International. Following that, I couldn't help but let him know of the recent sightings at...
Popeye the Sailor Man Becomes Popeye the Free Man (in Europe)
So one big item of news today, at least for me, is that the copyright to Popeye has expired. Or at least, it has in Europe; in the US, it still has a ways to go before the character becomes public domain. I've always been something of a fan of Popeye, and that...
I Should Be Writing More…
...but I've gotten so caught up in this: Darths & Droids. Imagine a world like ours, with table top role playing games like Dungeons & Dragons and all that fun stuff. Now imagine if it didn't have Star Wars. Now imagine if the idea of Star Wars was conceived as such a...
If I Ever Become a Dragon Ball Villain…
If I ever become a Dragon Ball villain...I will introduce slapstick humor into all battles. No one has given Vegeta a wet willie before, and the look on his face will be well worth the beating.I will develop supersensitive hearing. When the heroes start analyzing the...
Hitoshi Ariga Teases “Rockman Maniax”
Cross-posted from The Mega Man Network: Many fans have been excited to see manga writer/artist Hitoshi Ariga (of Big O manga and Rockman Megamix fame) return to the Rockman franchise once again with his cover and interior manga preview for the Rockman 9 Arrange Album....
