Or – “Paging Mr. Gibson, Mr. Walter Gibson… We’ve Found Your Intellectual Property!” Years ago, there were very few licensed titles around that weren’t cartoon properties (the respective Adventures of Bob Hope & Jerry Lewis were exceptions) and Dynamite, Boom! & IDW didn’t yet exist to vie for the licenses for everything that ever existed in the known universe. The days where Optimus Prime might meet up with Spider-Man or Pete Venkman and Jim Kirk might take down the same undead freak were still decades in the future. Still, in the late 70’s, the vagaries of fate and publishing contracts…
Or – “In Memoriam.” There has been a lot made of the fact that members of the Justice League International tend to get killed, maimed, brutalized and otherwise smacked around in the recent years of the DC Universe, and while I admit that this is the case, I don’t suspect that there’s any sort of real malice involved.

Or – “A Smackdown Of A Cerebral Nature…” There are a lot of geniuses in the Marvel Universe, from Abner Jenkins all the way up to Reed Richards, and there’s one thing they all have in common: They all invent forcefields, regardless of their field of study. They’re all social idiots. They’re too stupid to see the big picture. They all tend to have a bit of an ego about their big brains. So, what to do when Tony Stark gets a challenge from one of the oldest smart guys around?
Or – “Pickles The Drummer! Doodily Doo Ding Dong DOODILY DOODILY DOO!” TheDethklok phenomenon has grown to be the world’s third largest economy, providing work for thousands and supporting industries and countries around the world. Their latest opus, the Dethtrain, is nearly ready to roll on their latest tour. For those in the know, the expectation of random carnage is pretty much a given…
So Albert Wesker, Doctor Doom, and M.O.D.O.K walk into a bar… Well, it took more than a decade, but “Fate of Two Worlds,” the third installment in the Marvel vs. Capcom series is finally here, and while Capcom delivered a great fighting game that will appease both the hardcore crowd and the newcomers, they left out several characters and game features that may leave some disappointed.

Family reunions can be a drag, especially when your father may be a guy who has incorporated the fighting styles of everyone he’s ever witnessed in action. But what if you seem to share this skill set? Perhaps it’s time to go Maury Povich on his #@@ and determine if Taskmaster *IS* the father! The DNA tests show…ah, take the jump already!
The fast and furious assault of pornographic parodies of some of our beloved franchises has been hitting us hard (pun intended) over the last couple of years. Everything from The Simpsons XXX, to Grey’s Anatomy XXX, and recently Batman XXX, which won an award have come to DVD for your home viewing pleasure. Vivid Entertainment released Superman XXX: A Porn Parody a few weeks ago, and I finally got my hands on it (pun intended).
Oh God Dragons!!!
