It's my day off...

Heroes

After watching Clerks: TAS, I found this even funnier.

Crikey! I can't believe I forgot about this show!!

Crocadoo. One of my favorite shows on CN while growing up. It's canceled, and nobody remembered it, since it aired before we could fully harness the powers of the Internet, and therefore, no fansites.

Basic premise; there's this guy (who is the main antagonist) who has a hotel. Problem is, the hotel is placed on a swamp full of crocodiles (the protagonists), and since humans and crocodiles don't mix, he starts trying to get rid of the crocodiles with crazy schemes.

It's all fuzzy right now, since it's been a few years.

Anyway, I finally discovered Clerks: The Animated Series, and it was AWESOME!!! I'll admit, I've never seen the movies, but when I watched the show, I couldn't stop laughing. It's genius, it's crazy, it's just downright perfect.

Now, why would they cancel such an awesome gem after only 6 episodes?

Ah well, c'est la vie.

That's French for "All network executives are idiots who can go to hell."

Yes, it's about muscles.

The worst part is; this game actually looks FUN!!!

Aaaaaaaaargh!!!!

Yet another Obama comic.

Found this on CBR.

You know those comics with Obama on the cover, yet the story inside has nothing to do with Obama at all? You know, like what Savage Dragon and Spiderman (I think) did? I hate them. They just use Obama's face for bait n' switch, now that's Barack Roll'd. Usually the cover has a big close-up on Obama's face, smiling, and then the main hero would be behind him or next to him. Of course, there will be people who'd buy these comics for the Obama in it, not for the story, which will obviously be confused and irritated, especially if they don't even read comics.

However, it says here that Obama will be part of the story, like what Drafted: 100 Days will do, and I'm actually glad about this. Finally, a comic with Obama on the cover that actually has Obama in the story.

Little nitpick though; the Obama in this cover doesn't look like the real Obama much (in fact, I think the only similarity is that he's black.)

Just too awesome not to embed.

Now THAT'S Fanart!

Something I wrote, and will continue to write, when I am bored.

From the Log of Captain Lance Bravestar

Yeah.

Mentor? I thought it was Mentok?

This is classic.

Highlights:

0:02 - His battle-cry is his own name. Imagine Spiderman shouting "SPIDERMAAAAAAAAN!!" Every time he goes to battle.

0:10 - Mentok's 'secret' base could've been actually 'secret' if it weren't for THE HUGE 'M' ON THE DOOR.

0:20 - The fact that Birdman didn't know that his worst enemy lives right next door to him despite THE HUGE 'M' ON THE DOOR.

0:35 - "And how better than by controlling the mind of his most trusted friend, Avenger the eagle?" Gee, I dunno, maybe by CONTROLLING BIRDMAN?

1:20 - The fact that Birdman and Avenger are almost as big as the volcanoes.

1:28 - Birdman and Mentok recaps the events that had happened ONE MINUTE AGO, and then continue to describe their actions AS THEY DO IT. God, get a narrator!

2:13 - Mentok didn't understand how Avenger escaped, even though Birdman just loudly explains it a moment ago.

2:29 - See, if only he did this in the first place, this plan could've worked.

2:31 - Birdman's wings are gone.

3:32 - If Mentok can take minds, why does he even need to make demands? He can just make them do it with his powers. And why does Birdman have to send the message? What, no phone?

4:52 - I love how the writers just made up the 'Missile Technician' character on the spot just to throw the lever. The best part is how the guy seems to be aware of this fact! Just look at his face.

6:16 - Birdman hits us with his awesome Battlecry yet again.

Okay, to be fair, this cartoon was made in the sixties, so we really can't expect The Dark Knight or anything. However, it IS pretty fun to point out the flaws of a cartoon, and that's how I usually watch any other cartoons, and just because it's not perfect, doesn't make it suck.

Oh, you bet I'm gonna do more!

I tried singing along to this.

Doug TenNapel rules.

Drawn during class, bored...

Quite possibly the most awesome cover art of all time

Forget Frank Frazetta, HERE'S your Heavy Metal Album cover!

Kirk VanHouten has been ripped off

I'll be there like swimwear!

I, uh, got around to playing for 'Spy Fox: Dry Cereal' today. Man, those were the days.
In case you don't know, Spy Fox: Dry Cereal is a point-and-click adventure game for children, about this Fox who is a government secret agent (hence his name) who goes on a mission to save the dairy industry from a raving madman named Billy the Kid. I remember that feeling when, in the game, I foil Billy the Kid's evil plot, then sent him to jail. So... adventurous

I grew up playing these 'Humongous Entertainment' point-and-click adventure games. Stuff like 'Freddi Fish', 'Putt-Putt', 'Pajama Sam', and even today I still love adventure games. I collect old LucasArts adventure games (before the Star Wars fever sinked into Lucas' brain) as well as some Sierra (Well, mostly Leisure Suit Larry games, and they were never as likeable as Monkey Island or Grim Fandango, but they're not horrible). Also, I'm in the middle of finishing Beneath a Steel Sky, thank heavens for ScummVM.

While I do enjoy the occasional FPS and platformer, nothing beats getting into a witty dialog tree with likeable characters. Having problem-solving methods that don't involve headshots or turn-based combat with magic swords doesn't make you a wimp.

Hell, Sam and Max can kick Kratos' ass any day.

PS: Racing and Sports games suck. Seriously.

Emilio, Where Art Thou?

Seriously, this Emilio Alvarrado is almost non-existent. I've been searching all over the net for this guy, and all I've found are people with a coincidentally same name.



Ah, Superhawk. Where will the world be without you?

Okay, now for my first REAL post.

Once there was a guy named Jeff Cornerson. He was a scientist working on a top-secret project commissioned by the government. The project goal was to create a working Stargate, a door to another dimension.

Between all the scientists who worked on this project, Jeff was the most alone, with no living relatives nor friends, and therefore was the perfect candidate for the test run.

However, an accident occurred, and Jeff's molecules began to alter, turning him into a living blob of ectoplasm. While now his whole body is transparent green, he gained the ability to shapeshift and become invisible, as well as walking through walls, fly, and temporarily raise the dead. Oh, and he's immortal.

Because of his patriotism, he decided to become 'The Ghost of American Heroism!' and fought crime with his newfound abilities.

It wasn't long until other scientists who experienced lab incidents were inspired by Jeff, and started fighting crime as well. Some notable names would be: Flammable Lad, Superhuman-Man, and Captain Laser-mouth.

Jeff, surprised by this awesome turn of events, called all of these super crime-fighters and formed a group called 'The League of Accident-Prone Scientists'.

Now, copy and paste this story in your blog 3 times or Jeff will come to your house and beat you up.

One Small Step for a Blogger, One Infinitely Microscopic Twitch for the Internet

Hey, look! I got a blog! Now how did that happen? I'm not sure anyone's ever gonna read it, but then that's the point of a blog, right?

So let me write whatever's on my mind today. Er... tonight.
