AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 65.DEATHS ($3.99) is by Derek Landy and Kev Walker and continues "8 Deaths of Spider-Man." I decided I'm going to follow "One World Under Doom." With that decision, I realized I needed to read "8 Deat
Doctor Solar, Man of the Atom first appeared in 1962. Gold Key published 27 issues through 1969, then Whitman published four more in 1981. All of these are available in four harcover archives or softcover tpbs from Dark Horse, and all of which are ob
In "THE DEADLY ASSASSIN", there's a prolonged sequence (which actually got the producer KICKED OFF the show) where the hero is laying on a table while his mind enters a dream-scape and does battle with someone who's laying on another table, somewhere
Tegan’s initial adventure before she becomes an actual “companion.” I feel sorry for her auntie. I remember having a difficult time figuring out exactly what was supposed to be going the first time I watched this one (until I read about it in my epis
DAREDEVIL: UNLEASH HELL RED BAND #1 (OF 5, POLYBAG, $4.99) is by Erica Schultz (Daredevil: Gang War, Daredevil: Woman Without Fear) and Valentina Pinti (Blade, Immortal Thor). If I'm reading the solicitation right, ther
1)This is very much a transitional episode - the arrival of Steven Taylor as a member of Team TARDIS, the first indication that the TARDIS is not unique and the last story produced by original producer Verity Lambert.
1)Another old favorite, this one featuring an all-male cult as counterpoint to the Sisterhood from "The Brain of Morbius". This one also featured the debut of the "wooden" console room, which was my favorite of the sets they used in the old series.

The Time War. The Doctor has been injured and brought to a Time Lord field hospital. His body glows with energy, but this is no regeneration into a future form - instead, the Doctor’s past faces begin to appear as he flits haphazardly betw
I have been living in the late '80s recently (actually I have been commuting back and forth), and it occured to me that I have read almost the entire First Comics series Crossroads over the course of various discussions. I read issues #1-2 as part o
Back in April, while perusing the internet for the Dark Shadows Cookbook, I discovered (in a classic case of bad-timing) Danny Horn's "Dark Shadows Every Day Blog"... two weeks before it came to an end. But now he's got a new blog, and here's his int
"Stooky Bill" was a real thing, not aomething made up for the show.
"You must be used to sunnier climes." "I was born in Cheltenham." The Toymaker being an ethnic stereotype and a racist is a callback to the fact that the original Toymaker back in the
1) I like the sets in this a lot — considering it's early '60s Doctor Who, both the forest and the Dalek city are very well done, and come across as quite atmospheric.
2) If you listen to the commentary tracks for some of the more rec
I picked this up since I was a fan of the old Ultraman TV show when I was a little kid. This story is a direct sequel to the original series, ignoring the myriad subsequent Ultra-series. Earth has been at peace for the several decades si
Every year around this time, a discussion usually arises as to what makes a film a Christmas movie. Folks have varying criteria for qualification on this point, and contention usually erupts. I’m not about to open that can of worms. I am, however,
