40s All-American Ads



The 1940s was a decade of tremendous change.  At the beginning of the decade America was just coming out of a depression.  Times were still tough and industry was just starting to gear up.
 
When America entered WWII an unusual thing happened.  The government and private industry worked hand-in-hand.  Industrialization boomed and soon factories were churning out war materials and goods.  

The American worker found himself (and herself) back to work supporting the war effort.  Military equipment, vehicles, aircraft and more went to support the troops.

When the war ended the factories still remained.  Soldiers returning from the war were looking for steady employment and factories happily supplied them

Dozens of innovations came out the war and American soon entered its age of prosperity.  New products, time saving devices, homes, cars-you name it, were bought up by the hungry public.

Wall Street, American manufacturers, stores, retailers and advertising agencies took notice.
In response to American's never-ending hunger for 'new and improved', "time-savingdevices", and recreational needs, magazines, newspapers, billboards, TV, radio and a host of other advertising venues turned out hundreds-thousands-of ads and advertising.

Taschen and author Ed Jim Heimann have collaborated and turned out a huge hard back volume consisting of ads set during the 1940s.  Alcohol and Tobacco, Automobiles, Entertainment, Consumer Products, Fashion and Beauty, Food and Beverage, Industry, Interiors, and Travel are all given their due with full color and black and white ads featuring photos, clever art and copy and there's even a section on WWII.

It's the ultimate book about 1940s Ads, many of which became classic and still influence ads seen today.

Transcendence


Johnny Depp stars as Dr, Will Caster in Warner Bros. new sci-fi/action-adventure/thriller movie release on Blu-ray/DVD/Digital HD Ultraviolet Combo.
 
In the movie Dr. Caster is a leading researcher in artificial intelligence.  His latest project combines the unlimited intelligence of a computer coupled with the capacity to feel human emotions. 

Anti-technology terrorists seek to stop Dr. Caster's experiments but they succeed only in setting in motion his own transcendence.  Soon the doctor's thirst for knowledge begins to outstrip his emotions and what results is someone, or something, neither human or machine, or both.  

Will his wife and best friend manage to stop him before his thirst for knowledge and power threatens humanity?

Extras include several featurettes and trailers.  Is humanity ready for the next step of its evolution?  Be careful what you ask for.

Back Issue! #74, August


Marvel Comics' Fantastic Four changed everything for me as far as reading comic books goes.  I remember buying Fantastic Four #1 off the newsstand because of 'the funny looking orange monster." 

I was hooked from that issue I continued to read the FF religiously up and through the John Byrne issues.  After that point I kept up with the title buying issues dictated by the artists or writers.

Ask most FF fans and they'll agree that the Silver Age issues were the best.  I agree-to a point.  I've found that many of the Bronze Age issues had some of the best stories, killer art and many of the concepts introduced in those issues resonate throughout Marvel Comics' Universe to this day.

Back Issue! #74 from TwoMorrows Publishing examines the long neglected Bronze Age of the FF with  lots of original art, sketches, interviews and more.

Rich Buckler, John Byrne, George Perez, John Buscema and a smattering of other artists graced the book with their art while some now familiar names wrote the scripts.

Here's what Back Issue! has in store in this issue:

BACK SEAT DRIVER: Editorial by Michael Eury
FLASHBACK: The Fantastic Four in the 1970s Building upon the foundation laid by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby
FLASHBACK: Human Torch Solo, a No-Go
Marvel’s kinda-sorta efforts to spin off Johnny Storm
BACKSTAGE PASS: The Fantastic Four and Other Things
A television history of the animated FF
INTERVIEW: Marvel Comics on the Air
Tune in to The Fantastic Four Radio Show!
WHAT THE--?!: The Impossible Man
The Bronze Age return of the pest who was never supposed to come back
OFF MY CHEST: The Fantastic Four: Going Cheap
Rob Kelly remembers the once-plentiful Mego FF figures
BRING ON THE BAD GUYS: Galactus
The Devourer of Worlds is not your average supervillain
FLASHBACK: The Fantastic Four in the 1980s
A time of maturity and change for the FF and friends
BACK TALK
Captain and Colonel Future, reader comments about BI #69, and some FF extras

Flatliners and Last Action Hero



Long before Kiefer Sutherland became famous as Jack in 24 Hours and Julia Roberts as Pretty Woman and six years after Kevin Bacon went Footloose, the movie Flatliners propelled each into mega-stardom.
 
The movie's premise was eloquent in its simplicity: several Med students decide to explore death by dying and being revived.

What results are horrendous nightmares, disturbing visions and psychological terrors that affect each student differently.

Excellent acting, powerful storytelling and suspense-filled moments combine to make Flatliners a cult classic.  Some lines shouldn't be crossed.

Arnold Schwarzenegger was without a doubt the number one action hero of the movies during the 1980s and early 1990s. To many movie goers' surprise Arnold was also an above average dramatic actor and a surprise plus as a comedic actor.

Never one to take himself too seriously Arnold took full advantage of his super stardom and reputation as an action hero-humor and all.

In 1993 Arnold starred in a movie some critics panned but the fans loved.  Using his action hero status, Arnold starred in Last Action Hero, a fantasy movie where reality and movie magic collided.

In the film a young film fan enters the world of his favorite action hero played by Arnold.  When Arnold's nemesis escapes into our world Arnold follows and (surprise) discovers that bullets, fists and falls hurt!

Combine his real world experiences and the clever actor and actress cameos in Arnold's movie world and you have a film that is both funny and action packed.
Both Blu-rays are available from Mill Creek Entertainment making for some high definition fun!

Antboy



Superhero movies are all the rage.  Big, blockbuster movies with tons of special effects wow audiences and rake in the money.  Batman, Spider-Man, The X-Men, Superman, Green Lantern, Thor, Captain America and Guardians of the Galaxy--the list goes on and on in what looks likes to be years and years to come.
 
Who says superhero movies have to be big and flashy?  Superheroes come in all sizes.  That's the premise of the delightful new film from Denmark that stars a young boy, who is bitten by a super ant and becomes--your guessed it: Antboy!

A huge hit in Europe, Antboy is action/adventure/comedy that pits Antboy against his nemesis: The Flea. 

Playful jabs at other superhero movies make Antboy a real joy to watch.  It's charming, humorous and a real joy to watch as the young actors deliver a heartfelt homage to superheroes and prove that big doesn't necessarily mean bigger.

Clever and ingenious physical and special effects make Antboy the 'small' movie that delivers 'big' excitement, from Cinedigm.

Continuum Seasons 1 & 2 and Star Trek The Original Series Portfolio Prints




Rittenhouse Archives/Sci-fi Hobby has just released two brand new Trading Card Sets: one based on a classic science fiction series and one on a new sci-fi series.

Both series feature five Cards per Foil Pack with 24 Packs per Box.  As with all Rittenhouse Archives/Sci-fi Hobby Trading Cards each and every Card is printed on high-quality, heavy paper stock with full bleed photos or art work.  

Each Card is precisely trimmed with clean and crisp trim edges.  Foil Packs are tightly sealed and Rittenhouse ensures that no 'Card pickers' can select only the Foil Packs with special Cards by compensating for thick Cards by placing them mid-Foil Pack and making the Foil Packs impervious to electronic snooping.

Bonus Cards are randomly inserted in Foil Packs, ensuring that everyone who purchases a Foil Pack has an equal chance of finding Bonus Cards. 

The hit new sci-fi/suspense/fantasy/horror series Continuum has become a fan favorite.  Rittenhouse Archives/Sci-fi Hobby has compiled an impressive Trading Card collection covering Seasons 1 &2 consisting of three Cards per episode.

Sixty nine Cards make up the Base Set (I compiled a full Set).  Randomly inserted Bonus Cards include:

69 numbered GOLD Base Parallel Cards (1 for me)
7 Continuum Stars Cards (I received 2)
6 Continuum Future Tech Cards (1 for me)
18 Continuum Character cards (1 again)
16 Continuum Relic cards (1 guaranteed per Box.  I received Alex Sadler's Flannel Shirt)
2 Autograph Cards are guaranteed per Box (I got 3!--Jennifer Spense, Tahmoh Penikett and Michael Rogers) 

Rittehouse Archives/Sci-fi Hobby's new Star Trek The Original Series Portfolio Prints Trading Cards feature the incredible artwork of Juan Ortiz.  Juan created a complete retro series of posters of all the original series Star Trek TV episodes (along with the animated series) which are incredible.  Speaking as a fellow graphic designer I have to say I am impressed.

The 80 Card Base Set includes a Poster Card for each of the 79 episodes (2 for The Menagerie).  I assembled a complete Set with lots of extras.

Randomly inserted Bonus Cards include:

80-card GOLD base parallel set featuring facsimile signature of artist Juan Ortiz (I received 1)
80-card AUTOGRAPH base parallel set with cards signed by artist Juan Ortiz (zip)
22-card set featuring Star Trek: The Animated Series poster art by Juan Ortiz (2)
7-card Star Trek Bridge Crew Portraits set (1)
7-card Star Trek Bridge Crew GOLD Portraits Variation Bonus set (zip)
9-card Star Trek Bridge Crew Abstracts set (1)
Sketch Cards cover all 50 episodes from Seasons 2 and 3 of Star Trek.  One Sketch Card guaranteed per Box (1)
2 Autograph Cards are guaranteed per Box (Juan Ortiz and Garth Pillsbury are mine)

Both the Star Trek and Continuum Card Sets offer additional Bonus Cards for Cases, etc.

Savage Hulk #1



Now this is the Hulk I love: savage, destructive, in-your-face and yet gentle and heroic at times.
Writer/artist Alan Davis (who delivers some of his best work yet) takes the Hulk back to his fateful meeting with the original Uncanny X-Men in issue #66 of their title.

If you remember the story Charles Xavier (Professor X) came out his long coma with the help of Bruce Banner/Hulk.

Unbeknownst to the X-Men and the Hulk, the Leader was observing everything that transpired.
For reasons only to the Leader knew the information he gathered would prove useful in his never-ending plans for world domination.

In the meantime Professor X and the X-Men strategize on how to help Bruce Banner rid himself of the Hulk- and then the abomination shows up!  Stay tuned for Issue #2.
Alan Davis has captured the look and feel of the Marvel Comics Silver Age characters and matched the art of some the artists who worked on the series at that title then and slightly later.
See if you can sport homages to Neal Adams and Dave Cockrum.

Bat-Signal, Sonic Screwdriver, Voldemort's Wand, Godzilla and Enterprise


I love science fiction and fantasy-be it movies, TV shows, books, magazines or other related items. I also love miniatures.

Running Press has taken the best of both worlds and combined them to make a unique series of miniature boxed items taken directly from sci-f and fantasy.


Each miniature boxed item also comes with a small full color sticker pack or booklet that showcases (in this case) items seen from sci-fi and fantasy movies.


All of the miniature items light up and look exactly like their larger namesakes.


The Godzilla figure features not only his light up mouth but his iconic roar.  Godzilla comes in two pieces-his body and tail, and easily snaps together.


Lord Voldemort's Wand also comes in two pieces, lights up and includes a stand in the shape of Voldemort's snake Nagini and photographic stickers.


The Starship Enterprise from Star Trek: The Original Series easily snaps together (nacelles to hull) and lights up-its miniature portholes and bridge illuminating space.  A Starfleet emblem base keeps the Enterprise aloft.


Batman's Bat-Signal comes fully-assembled and lights up the famous Bat symbol that can be projected on walls.  A special 48-page booklet highlights the Dark Knight's crime-fighting career.


The Eleventh Doctor Who's Sonic Screwdriver looks and sounds impressive as it lights up and emanates its familiar hum.


All of the miniatures are finely detailed and make excellent additions to any sci-fi and fantasy fan's collection-like mine!

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles



It's no secret that about six to eight years ago the toy industry hit a snag.  Because of rising costs for modeling, manufacturing and shipping toy companies reduced the size of action figures, cut back on quality and raised prices-with one exception; Playmates Toys.

Playmates Toys consistently turns out high quality action figures in a variety of sizes, doesn't skimp on details or accessories and manages to keep the cost of its figures lower than most competitors.  Proving that even in tough times quality counts!

Playmates' new Teenage Mutant 'Ninja Turtles' movie figures are a perfect example of what I just mentioned.  Packaging, paint application, articulation, accessories, detail and playability are at the top of the scale and...kids can afford them-imagine that!

Three different scales of figures have been produced.  I refer to them as Small, Medium and Large.

Eight figures make up the 'small' selection and they include Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, Michelangelo, Splinter, April O'Neil (sure to be the most collectible), The Shredder and Foot Soldier.

Let's start with Splinter.  An oversize humanoid rat, Splinter comes dressed in a tan robe and deep brown jacket, Around his neck he wears a medallion and included with the figure is a samurai sword.  Splinter, like the other small figures, does not skimp on details, even going so far to feature finely detailed hands, feet and facial features.

The Shredder figure is my favorite.  Bristling with knives, swords, pointed armor, an elaborate headpiece and bio-tech armor The Shredder definitely lives up to his name. Like the other figures he is articulated and can hold various weapons.

The Foot Soldier is probably the most austere of the figures.  Dressed in gray, tan and black the figure includes several handguns and a large assault rifle.  He also comes with a slipover transparent face mask.

The four Turtles come dressed as one would expect if they are in anyway familiar with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.  All have footwear, tunics, leggings and waist decorations.  All wear some sort of hand and arm protection and are distinguished from each other by size, distinctive eye mask and similar outfit accents in their trademark colors. 

Donatello comes equipped with a fighting staff, Leonardo with two small katanas with scabbards, Raphael with twin sai and Michelangelo with nunchucks.  All of the figures are articulated, come packed in see-thru hanging bubble packs with accompanying color photos of the turtles from the live action, computer generated animation movie.

The toy line is simply referred to as Ninja Turtles but for the sake of this review I will refer to them as TMNT.

The TMNT 'Medium' figures are even more impressive than the 'Small' figures.  The 'Combat Warrior' TMNT figures stand about six to seven inches tall and feature something called 'Squeeze Legs'.

Squeeze Raphael's legs and he slashes with his sai and Donatello twirls his staff.  Pretty  impressive!

The 'Large' Leonardo and Michelangelo figures are so detailed you can see the texture of their skin and shells. Each articulated figures comes with realistic looking clothing-folds and all and their armor, weapons and other pieces of clothing are super-detailed-right down to the rivets and armor plates!  

I'm really impressed with the figures' facial features, three-finger hands, musculature and accessories.  You will be too once you see them.

All three sets of the various size figures include all the Turtles while the 'Small' set includes other film characters.  Look for more Turtle figures, vehicles and other goodies to come.
