Mentally challenged magneto defeated….by a wooden gun!!

Yes! Mentally Challenged Magneto is BACK! Yeah he’s back alright and more mentally challenged than ever! This scene occurs near the end of the “Menace of Magneto” Fantastic Four cartoon. After a very un-epic battle with Reed Richards a gun is pulled on Magneto. Yeah ol’ Magneto is still really into talking in third person and narrating what he is going to doing in battle before he does it to his enemies! The clencher here is when Magneto learns he cannot control the gun that is pointed at him! He immediately assumes that all his magnetic power is lost for good-and admits he basically is a total hack with out it! Then when Richards tells him that the gun is made of wood & Magneto CONTINUES to give up surrendering to the police rather than kicking some major ass with his magnetic powers! The best line is at the very end as Magneto is taken away by the police as he admits defeat! What are you waiting for? Go hunt down this epic cartoon already!!

Can someone please find Elektra bigger gun?

This is one of my all time favorite pictures of Elektra by Bill Seinkeiwicz who in my opinion is one of the best artist ever in comic book history. I even have the poster of this on my bedroom wall.  But still every time I look at it I can’t help but wonder why her gun is SO damn big?!!

This version of Elektra would not be caught dead anywhere near Ben Affleck….

Sex, Drugs, and Rock N Roll!

Well ok maybe more disco than rock.

 Alot of people consider Dazzler as one of the more lame X-men characters, but always had a soft spot for her in my heart. She first appeared in one of the best X-stories ever The Dark Phoenix Saga and then went on to star in her own graphic novel and series. I always dug the graphic novel cause for its time it really showed what a mutants life was like and not just as a super hero. She drinks, parties, over eats, and sleeps her way to the top . She even outs herself as a mutant to gain publicity for her new movie and singing career. This all doesn’t turn out so well, but you need to read the Graphic Novel to find out more.  After that she joined the X-men, lost her memory, marries Longshot and finally returns with pink short hair. 
Oh and she can’t be that lame if she was asked to be the Herald of Galactus! Good Marvel What If story by the way.

Mentally challenged magneto!!!

Here we have perhaps the greatest cartoon of all time!! The Menace of  Magneto!! This episode from the Fantastic Four series w/ Herbie the Robot  is one of my all time favorites. I own this on VHS and have watched this, shown it to friends a million times and it NEVER disappoints! There is clearly something very wrong with Magneto on this particular afternoon! The first clue is that damn ridiculous car he’s driving around!! Is that the best he could do for a vehicle?!

The Incredible Hulk cartoon from the 80’s!

Last week saturday I talked about how much I missed the ‘Spider-man and His Amazing Friends’ cartoon from the 80’s. Well shortly there after they added a solo ‘Incredible Hulk’ cartoon to the Marvel power hour on saturday mornings! I was so PUMPED! It was like a dream come true! This one season Hulk show was one of my all time favorites. Recently I bought a bootleg of the whole season at a comic convention and it’s just as good as it was back then. Here’s the opening to this classic cartoon. If you search around on youtube you can find the full episodes!!! 

SPIDER-MAN AND HIS AMAZING FRIENDS ARE TRUELY MISSED…

It’s saturday and when I woke up I wished was a kid again in the 80’s waking up and watching my favorite show, Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends! I loved that show more than life itself it seemed. So I got on to youtube and watched some episodes! It’s no wonder I loved it so much back then because it still totally rules! This clip is from one of my favorite episodes- “The X-Men Adventure”. You can imagine how blown away I was as a comic book collector as a kid to see the X-Men animated starring alongside Spider-Man!!  Their choice of  X-men was really awesome as well-they used Thunderbird! How cool is that?! And they let Spider-Man try out the danger room! check this out!

Wolverine loses his monthly title to his son!

Well this June marks Logan’s departure from his own title! Yeah as you may already have heard the Wolverine title we all know and love is becoming “Dark Wolverine”  at issue #75. This title is going to follow the exploits of his asinine son Daken as he impersonates his father donning his brown and tan costume. Well at least someone is going to wear that thing!  “Dark Wolverine” will follow his solo adventures he embarks on when he’s not hobnobbin’ around with the Norman “Green Goblin” Osborn’s Avengers.

Daken takes over the Wolverine title as it’s main character in issue #75.

Old hulk Dude Vs. Real Hulk!

Geez “Old Hulk Dude” sure is creepy huh? Just by the looks of him you know that he’s a total prick! A total prick in need of a serious smackdown! I just think, just maybe, they could have gotten someone with a little more muscle on him to play this older Hulk creature don’t you? He looks like a damn tooth pick next to ‘ol Lou! But let’s be fair-Old Hulk Dude has some seriously flashy moves he flaunts on the real Hulk. Hell, the first time I saw this episode I could NOT wait for this loser to get his ass kicked! So here it is the final battle in this amazing, epic 2 part Hulk episode entitled “The First”. I highly recommend watching both episodes in their entirety. Highly, highly entertaining….
