My favorite department store, Marshall’s, had some Fantastic 4 cartoons in their $5 DVD bin. I normally won’t even spend that amount of money on DVD’s now that pretty much everything is on the web but I wanted to have something to watch while I work on my video projects.
Something for a little diversion, some background noise*, maybe even some inspiration.
*That wasn’t pr0n
I was pleasantly surprised with the manga-influenced series. Yeah, it’s mostly for the kids and the canon is somewhat revised but that isn’a always a bad thing. The updated Dr. Doom is a little more futuristic and less teh ghey. At least he doesn’t have that man-skirt in this series.
Another part of the canon upgrade is that Alicia Masters, the blind woman dating Ben Grimm is now a Black woman. That was cool with me. Mainstream comicbook vehicles could always use more heroic Black characters.
The series also features appearances from other sundry Marvel hero icons like Ant-Man and Iron Man. The supervillains are well represented also – Doom, Mole Man and Annihilus to name a few.
I’m definitely fuxing with this series.
The X-Men: Evolutions cartoons, not so much.
might have to check for those, even if thing looks a likkle too happy in that last shot
I picked up a very nice special edition copy of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within @ Marshalls for $5.
They’ve got some good compilation sets of older movies for the methusalahs in the family, too @ $5.
You know that most of my good ish besides the last Caped Crusaders came from my brother from another mother…Should a girl be on the pp lines?
Gee,
