Hello All,                                                                                                                      Ever since I have come back from visiting my folks from in Cuenca, Ecuador back around the end of this past May,  I started back on nineteenth, and while trying to have as much fun with them and my new friend Ian that I met while visiting them I was definitely trying to getting around to reading   

                                        these books seen here. Since that time I have only read the Batman Hush trade yet at the same time while down there I kept trying to get in to reading Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury and even though it took me close to a whole month later in June for me to devouring this fictional tale of what could happen to humanity if we can have everything we want or need with the exception of one very important thing.  This review of Fahrenheit 451 has a great many things within it's very pages that are very relevant to today on the fourth of July evening. It also has a lot of meaning about each of us as humans treating each person as much as a needed relationship and understanding the importance of needing to remember we all are in need of self respect when the world is at time against us. Let's get into why this story is very important to all of humanity!                                                  From the first page of Fahrenheit you or we as readers find out that in this world's fire fighters aren't perventors of destruction they are the cause of them, as the central hero of this story known as Guy Montag is described with having possibly pain over watching the results of his work of setting a place up in being burnt down with his hose that is connected to a canstor of Kerosene on his back. We can tell by the words which Bradbury uses that he seems rather in doubt of his own thoughts. He as he walking home meets a young teenager who with her own type of conversation brings up something for Guy to ponder even more over which is "are you happy?"                                                We find out that Guy himself while dealing with his wife at home seems to might have his own personal secret of something that he is hiding stuff in a ceiling ventilator in his room but at this point, he is the only one who knows what it might be? He went and sometime years ago had built an entertainment palor for his wife, and she wants him to finish it. The entertainment palor has currently three wall size television screens in it, while he is still paying off the third television with his salary from being a fireman. The next night when he attends work at the fire station Montag see that the station now has a entirely new pet while he is playing cards with the guys his boss tells him of why they have this mechanical hound. Then the alarm sounded....                  What is the meaning of an alarm in this powerful story? It is known that if anyone has any type of glued pages with words with either a paper backing or a cardboard cover binding better known as a book your punishment is your life is definitely ended! The firemen headed to a elderly woman's home and  she's defensive in protecting her ideal of why words are very relevant to her. Montag's boss Beatty then sets the woman and her home up in flames!                                                   From here on out I won't spoil what comes next for the characters of Fahrenheit 451... Except this Every single character is forever changed! The main thing that I want to do now is talk about what the story itself brings out in the way of controversies and or criticisms how  much if at all do Ray's actual substance still affect us as humans today.                                                                                                                             One if not the main things that I did notice as I read this novel is the understanding that in one way or another as I just said there is complete elevolution of not only characters choosing to change or not able to change is shown with grit and also grief as there is mentioned the war of the past through Guy's remembrance to his own childhood when he is talking to the teenager girl at the beginning. Which is of course known to one generation as either "The Big One" and then there is this one "The Greatest Generation's War" were two ways of defining name wise of World War II as far as I Matt remember before the internet was introduced to the whole world in nineteen ninety four.         Anyway as Guy is talking to Clariesse McClellan on their walk to their homes he remembers a time, when he was a boy and his mother lit a candle to give them light when the power was out everywhere. There is certainly no doubt that this was a memory that Ray Bradbury felt needed to be shared in this very nightmarish story of literature being destroyed! He also made it another point to speak of people anywhere and everywhere being burned and not just like in the concentration camps over in places like Nazi Germany, while under the dictatorship of Adolf Hitler, who was responsible for murdering close to six million Jewish people in what is known as the Holocaust. Hitler also murdered an additional four million other people who were deemed "unworthy of life."                                                                                                                             So there is a lot more to the meaning about people being burnt in real life besides the likes of combustion of oxygen and heat. Fahrenheit 451 shows us that even in the greatest of unknowable ways people everywhere can hurt themselves even with the consequences of cutting technologies if we are not careful enough! The most important and meaningful experience from the words of this very fictional yarn that I have gained is we as humans are more worthy to judge those closest to us rather if we know them as our own families and friends because we decide to go with our feelings rather than our known knowledge when we have everyday contact with each other... but at the same time if the whole world is against you remember that no one has to endure the worst of all options do not just disappear into a crowd of nothingness!           Remember that there is something absolutely special about us and books, we need them to understanding not only a good or a fantastic source of knowledge... we need stories to learn about both the understanding of being rich with both love and responsibly even if the topic in the way of the book's subject is completely something else entirely. Now with today being the fourth of July remember to use proper judgment when lighting up those fireworks and enjoy your time with your family and friends... 

It is the second "J month of 2025"

 Hey there all,                                                                                                               As you have all seen of late,  I have been having a long amount of time since I have been posting a whole lot of interesting things but at the same time I realize that even though I can't always be posting something new everyday like I was trying to back in two thousand and twelve and maybe also around two twenty twenty one. Yet of late I have been thinking of something really special for this month of June for at least trying... and I know that later for today I will be working for a friend's dad but I will try to get something out even if it will be a little late for the first day of the month. An the biggest thing is I will reveal a few things I have been wanting to for a few years now.                                     One thing that I know is that I have been wanting to talk about besides the many novels or comics that yours truly is wanting to read I have for years have been trying to decide on which of my many favorite animation series to review completely. Along with that of wanting to share these various animation series do you want me to share my own knowledge of each series in someway similar to like how I did with my top post off on the right over here about the incredible hulk television series. Maybe either way of how I will post them I will include some kind of my own history in part of knowledge of that said series as best I can.                                                                                                       Now before I give you a choice of where I would like to begin by my own cartoon choice, it is finally time for me Matt to show you what I have not for at least since February or March of two thousand twenty three that I have had on my tablet on when I was turning it on, and my main screen as well throughout that same amount of time. Then also there is my opening screens on my phone as well. So here's what has been on my tablet for close to two years of time when I go to turn it on is this of 

 the second in command of the Enterprise D and possibly a new take on the alien race from the original series episode known as "Arena". They were called the Gorn and James Kirk fought their captain of a certain ship that had destroyed a whole civilization on a planet.  An of course a top view of the aforementioned Enterprise ship. I call it Data vs the Gorn. Then when I open my tablet to where I have my apps to play games like Star Trek Timelines for years I have had this of 

 Spider-Man reading his own alternate history by John Romita Sr which would be nice. Actually there happens to be a very interesting alternate history that I believe Marvel comics would love very much, since I have recently heard that once again they have brought the original Gween Stacy back from the grave to be yet another version of herself and to torture Spider-Man fans even more with her hating him.... I will talk about what my thoughts on that are later. But yet last year after my vacation with my family overseas my phone died and I ended up getting a new phone at T-mobile store it's a A15 for better pictures and here's 

     what I have on my lock screen. This image is from Amazing Spider-Man #303 in which Spider-Man was chasing Sandman who was working for the international spy leader of the wild pack known as Sliver Sable....  and as to what I have on that phone   

on my main home screen is this a recolored version of Todd's cover Spider-Man issue 13 on that cover in a retrangle on the left bottom corner it give the title of the story which is "Subcity part one of two", with purples and greens in the webs.                                                          Now on to my possibilities of three cartoon choices I have as a way of starting this series are Warners Brothers shorts featuring the Looney Tunes characters, or Scooby-Doo where are you?, or maybe something that I have that even I haven't seen yet as well as all of you? Remember to leave something worth being watched for I don't mind finding something on YouTube if I really have too okay? 

 

The passage of a comic writer....

 Hello All,                                                                                                                      Boy this is kinda hard to find a way to start this very entry even though it is rather late posting wise on the Sunday of Memorial day weekend of twenty, twenty five, as I was working with finishing my Batman HusH review throughout today I had seen around noontime of today on one the many YouTube channels  I subscribe to had a small eight minute short about a very interesting person with in the comic industry.  The you tuber is known as Zac Joiner whose site is called Spidey dude and on his channel he has many different topics he shares about what he likes and cares about in the way of comics... but in the short I could tell he was unsure of how he wanted to talk about this very comic creator without letting his feelings show through as well.  But alas he couldn't at least not completely!                                                        It turns out that comic book writer Peter David who I have written about before here on this site has passed away... Now who is or was Peter David you asking right? He wrote for many forms of media besides comics, he wrote a bunch of Star Trek novels mostly of Star Trek the Next Generation but also some Deep Space Nine ones but at some given time he was allowed to come up with his own Fredration Star Trek known as Star Trek Titan as to how long it ran for I don't rightfully know? He also wrote for television and movies the one television series that he work on that I am definitely interested in is Babylon five,  which was officially created by comic creative Michael J  Straczynski before he started writing  Amazing Spider-Man in early two thousand and one, where Spider-Man fought an life snapping energy character  known as Morlun.                                                                     Peter David was born on September twenty third,  nineteen, fifty two in Fort Meade, Maryland to Gunter and Dalia David.  His love of comics goes as far back to when he was five years old and he read  kid type of comics of Casper the friendly ghost, and Wendy both published by Harvey comics when he went to the barbershop. He hid around that age his love of superheroes comics, from his parents. His first Marvel comic was Fantastic Four annual three, in that annual Reed Richards and Susan Storm got married. It was released in November,1965, his parents eventually let him read superhero comics and his favorite character as a child was Superman, he met his first comic professional Jack Kirby in nineteen seventy in New York.                                                        Peter got into writing because of his father Gunter who reviewed movies and at times young Peter got his thoughts shared with his dad's publishing reviews. By his early teens he felt he had lost interest in comics, but he found that by the end of his first year of college he got to pick up the giant size comic from Decetevice Comics Superman special where Superman got to fight Muhammad Ali (1978). At that same time he picked up copy of 1975's Giant size X-MEN # 1 and Uncanny X-MEN #95 which were done by a young Chris Clairemont from that time forward he wanted to write for comics. The one writer he felt always to challenge himself against is/was science fiction and fantasy author Harlan Elison.                                                                                                       The amount of comic writing by Peter is way over just characters at Marvel or Decetevice Comics,  in fact his longest written credits go to his The Incredible Hulk run which he started in nineteen eighty seven and continued non stop till nineteen ninety eight.... but was asked to return for a brief amount of time in two thousand and five for a while.  He also wrote for the Spectacular Spider-Man title and is best known for taking Peter Parker to his darker side in where as both Peter and Spider-Man delt with the death of a police officer named Jean Dewolff. In Spectacular Spider-Man # 107-110, 

 in this story Spider-Man goes on the hunt for a killer of a preacher, a judge, and a cop and even has Matt Murdock a lawyer who is more than a lawyer alone help him in catching the killer. David a year and half later with Spider-Man now Married to Mary Jane Watson had Spider-Man face that killer again in a three part story called "The Sin Eater Released" which shows how Peter Parker isn't dealing well 

   ,with his friend Dewolff death.  Which ran through Spectacular Spider-Man #134-136. Peter David also co created besides the Sin Eater for Spider-Man, he co created the Future Hulk character called the Mastro in the incredible Hulk two parter called Future Imperfect,  he co created Spider-Man 2099 in 1992. Peter David also worked at Decetevice Comics on Aquaman, Supergirl, and a team book that I don't know much about?  

   Peter David was one of the few creative people who besides Stan Lee who like a great many fans myself included, that believes Spider-Man being Married to Mary Jane Watson is a positive influence on the character of Peter Parker.  Within the last couple of decades Peter David has been having health problems and on Saturday he passed away from kidney complications... and it's sad for me to say this but he had to ask his family and friends and fans to help him with his health care payments with a Gofundme.com And Marvel had never thanked him ever for his contributions to grow their business. I know that because I am human being I care when anyone dies regardless of if they are famous or not,  and I know I will miss you Peter David.  
           

 

BATMAN HUSH

Hello comic readers of Batman,                                                                              Well where should I start with this very entry,  I mean in the past I have had plenty of chances to talk about what comics are and how they have good sides and doubtful sides of when a book takes a character whether it's a group of characters or side supportive characters have growth in them that brings a character like Bruce Wayne to life. In Batman Hush that was published in Batman individual issues of 608 through 619 that came out from 2002 through 2003. The very trade version that I read had this as a main cover

                                                              which I actually got with one my comic purchasing trips to a local comic store that is called Adventures Underground in uptown Richland Washington last December before Christmas time. The main reason why I decided to include this in my reading list of comics besides having a whole other larger copy of this story from also at Adventures Underground from around 2016 but has a entirely different cover on it, I had heard as mid October and early November that the company of Decetevice Comics is putting out a sequel that had started late April of 2025 by the same creative team of comic writer Jeph
Loeb and comic artist Jim Lee whose best work mainstream wise was X-MEN titles in the late nineteen eighties to early nineteen nineties for Marvel comics,  but is now the chief creative officer of Decetevice Comics currently.  Meanwhile Loeb before being a writer of comics, besides what he has written for Batman before see Batman the Long Halloween, Batman Dark Victory, and one I can't recall right now but connected to those two. He also wrote the Marvel line of comics series of colors. Which are seen here 

                                                           the only one that I know that I am looking for is the Captain America White.  So far I can honestly say that I can only find that one in Hardcover format, Jeph also wrote a few other Marvel comics title but I don't know if I really want those particular ones. His other things he penned was the first Teen Wolf movie in nineteen eighty seven that starred Michael J Fox as Scott Howard during his last season of his television series Family Ties.                                                                                   Yet before the beginning of this story called Hush in this BATMAN title was a four issue arc that was about because of it being so close to in real life a plotical race time, comic writers Edward Burbaker (Captain America Winter Solider at the same time  of this, and comic writer Goeff Johns  his upcoming work was Green Lantern with Ethan Van Sciver of Cyberfrog fame in the 1990's. In the story titled " DEATH WISH- FOR TWO" in Which he faces his adversity called Deadshot who is out to kill a upcoming plotical candidate in Gotham city and Deadshot decides to include Batman to who is paying him for the original job. I don't know of how I feel about this topic of sharing my plotical choices, because I don't feel it's my right to make you decide to feel the way I do. This issue of Batman is part of a bigger story arc                                 

             known as Batman BRUCE WAYNE FUGITIVE. I knew of this story but didn't decide to collect this whole arc... but I had heard a lot about Batman Hush for years and had gotten a copy of it for my nephew Bryce for a Christmas present along with a Star Wars comic trade back in 2014, as to if he loves the story I still need to ask him about it...                Right about this very same time over at Marvel with the character that I love of Spider-Man,  they had just ended the first volume of Amazing Spider-Man with issue #441 with The Final Chapter part 1 of 4... 

and ended in Peter Parker Spider-Man vol 1 1990 with issue #98 seen here 

 , then Marvel restarted Spider-Man the comic series with Amazing Spider-Man volume 2 number one in December 1998. Which was originally in January 1999 by John Byrne and he at the same time had a new Spider-Man title at time as well called Spider-Man Chapter One that ran for a twelve issues which then canceled. Meanwhile Amazing Spider-Man volume 2 ran from issue 1 to 29 with `fair to good stories with Marvel writers trying to again still get rid of Mary Jane Watson Parker.  Then in April of 2001 with a cover date of June Amazing Spider-Man started a fantastic renewal with Writer Michael Straczynski with issue 30. I was wanting to place where Spider-Man was at the general time during the time Batman Hush was about to be released November of 2000 which was really in December of that year and Batman issue # 608 came out!                                                   Hush begins with Batman saving a boy named Edward Lamont IV, the young heir to the Lamont chemical fortune, in the middle of the night at one of the many of one of Gotham's shipping yards....                                                   

                                                                      he once there takes out three gun men and his foe Killer Croc  while he is trying to keep ten million dollars from Croc and the gun men from Lamont's family.  After he helps the boy to Police and F.B.I. custody someone stops him from chasing Catwoman who has taken the money yet we don't know who that is?  The first chapter of HusH is titled The Ransom....  In Chapter two of HusH we the reader find out who Catwoman had taken the money for Edward Lamont to, which I will tell you about later. But we still have no clue of who was helping Catwoman escape from Batman while he chased her across Gotham's night sky, we only that Batman himself fell to a very specific alley that is part of his actual origin known as Crime Alley. As some local bums try to beat him up one of his female partners known as "H" right now fights the bums as the Batmobile arrives in Crime Alley and takes him to the Bat cave where his butler Alfred is trying his best to help Batman.                                 

 With his injuries...  when Bruce uses morse code that puzzles Alfred for a brief moment because what Bruce's fingers are saying is Thomas and at first the butler thinks his employer is talking about his own father, when in truth he isn't at all?

Throughout other parts of HusH we come to see that Jeph wants to have a event between both Batman and the very first superhero from so long ago that without saying that hero's name I can still let you know who he is by the city he protects and that is of course Metropolis! In chapter five, it's revealed that the person who Catwoman had given the ransom money to is Batman's adversity Poison Ivy. Who gets the aforementioned mentioned hero to side with her and Batman ends up having a brawl with 

                               the last son of Krypton, and to be honest outside of the main story of Batman HusH Jim Lee I have to say probably enjoyed penciling issue five the most out of the whole series. After issue five of Hush the major points seem to have Batman fighting his main enemies of Harley Quinn, Joker, his former Robin known as Jason Todd who was killed on Batman's forty ninth anniversary in nineteen eighty eight. Yet it turns that Jason Todd the second Robin in this story wasn't even alive for real, it turned out here Batman's adversity Clayface was Jason Todd in story, and for non comic book fans reading this it was Batman fans who chose to kill him with a phone poll with a choice of two nine hundred numbers.          The other big thing story wise that Jeph Loeb puts a focus on is a relationship between Catwoman and Batman as both Bruce Wayne and Sellina Kyle their civilian selves. It turns out that HusH is a old friend of Bruce Wayne's before that famous night that he and his parents were walking down a area known as Crime Alley in Gotham city and even though we do as readers find out that HusH is doctor Thomas Elliott and He is still out there... yet how HusH ends is very much an odd place of who was behind it all? Is all I will admit to! My grade overall for Batman HusH is a whole is a C+ for the story, for the Art Jim Lee was completely fantastic like his work of art back in the late nineteen eighties 

,when he did a book known as X-MEN for Marvel comics.  

Let's just get a full dose of whose our favorite villains in cinematic history are....

 Hey there everyone,                                                                                                   Well let me say that no matter who you are and what type of movies you're use to watching you know that your story in that forum of art has a villain in it. Sometimes if not always the villain of our favorite stories is definitely a surprise in a way that we never realize. Sometime as I was just saying whoever the villain in a film is definitely defined by their reactions to dealing with their moral codes and their ways of dealing with their concerns is by not dealing with said concerns without letting their fists or weapons do their answering.  Villains in some ways may come from being not just simple human beings at times. At times there are plots in any movie or stories that has villains take a moment or a chance at being a good person.                                           One example of a villain having a chance of not being just a bum is the character of Apollo Creed from the Rocky film franchise in the first two films he is the world's boxing champion who offers a low ranking boxer named Rocky Balboa a chance at going to distant at fighting the the best of the best! In Rocky the fight ends in a draw by the boxing commission, In Rocky II the two contenders come to find out that they both have to prove if not to the whole world but themselves that their last fight proved nothing at all. By the next film Rocky has his former manager Micky Goldmill, (portrayed by Burgess Meredith) get winded by Rocky's current contender to be the world's next boxing champ. Then Rocky takes up unwilling at first Allpo his former foe as his new manager then regains his courage to beat the new world boxing champ known as Cubber Lang then by the end of the film Apollo and Rocky settle who could win between them. In Rocky IV a new challenger from Russia comes to America to showcase his fighting skills and hurts Rocky's former enemy now friend and results in Rocky dueling with the Russian fighter.                                                                                                    

  Then there are certainly several villains in movies or novels that literally refuse to change no matter how strong they are depicted.  The one example of a villain being unable to change is the Emperor from Star Wars films before he was the shriveled old man that he was in the original trilogy, he was a cropurut senate leader in the government and his motivation was just to get control of both the trade Fredration and his understanding of the force but the Darkside never the Lightside. He used the power of the Darkside to gain the trust of a certain young Jedi known as Ankiain Skywalker and trun him into his pupil called Darth Vader. He used Vader as his way to speak for him throughout the Empire. Till Vader eventually turned against him by throwing him down the power core of his second destroyer of planets known as the Death Star.  

Now you're asking so villains are not always justified as just from being only humans right... villains come in other forms than from just  becoming monsters. Now speaking of monsters as villains is a little more complicated at times because at times a writer will make the monster like the creature from Frankenstein a character we the reader do care about, the same is also building traits of the Wolfman or even Dracula... the writers of those literary characters saw their creations as actual living beings in their hearts and eyes as they wrote that given character. Yet other writers of the same characters find a way to add more to the lore of the monsters with their own type of words in their own stories.  
     When I was growing up it was a time of transition in the way of how some thing came about for animation in the regulations of selling future toys to children came from the president of the United States who was Ronald Regan at the time of the early nineteen eighties.  Before that time when cartoons were made they had a free range of adding a lite bit of true craziness of whatever the storyteller and animators had going on in the short. Here's a example of what I mean by creativeness from a Warner Brothers Looney Toons Bugs Bunny short called "Rabbit Seasoning" has Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck trying confound Elmer Fudd over what season it is  hunting wise of the two animals. At one point in the  cartoon Bugs Bunny fools the hunter by pretending to be a woman 

                                                             as seen here to avoid being the hunter's dinner, but I have a even better question out the three of them who's the real villain here? I will admit that I have a answer but I will come to my answer when I get around to reviewing this very cartoon.                                                     
       Now I will actually admit that for a moment I got off topic here of favorite villains of cinematic history... but I'll get right back to it by saying my most favorite top villain of all of the many cartoons that I saw as a child was for most vile isn't Gargmel from the Smurfs series or even the Seawitch from the old Popeye cartoons... and even though I was a huge Masters of the Universe fan of all of the many nineteen eighties toylines, yet as I feel the greatest villain of the cartoons of the eighties is the transformer leader of the villainous deceptions known as   

        Megatron.  Oh you know what yours, truly just realized that I totally forgot to talk about among of all villains out there, I didn't tell you about my favorite literary one from books or novels... I guess that it really means besides getting more reading and thinking from the past... I certainly have more to write about of great villains of the printed word.... to come out eventually! 

SANTA VISTS GOTHAM CITY IN....

 Hello comic lovers and new readers of tales of thoughtfulness,                                                      So yeah in someway or other I will admit that I have been so full of wanting to read this particular comic trade that I had  got a couple of weeks ago when I had picked up my recent comics at Adventures Underground in uptown Richland. This trade consists of four issues from around last Christmas time by Decetevice Comics with their top comic superhero known as Batman, in what I am reviewing right now Batman-Santa Claus《Silent Knight》. Which is written by Jeff Parker (Batman '66, Aquaman) with artists Michele Bandini and Trevor Hairsine. Together these three comic creators brought fourth a yarn of ideas as odd as Santa Claus being a darker version of himself while fighting his own foe with the greatest set of heroes around at his side!                                                              When carolers whom are not named expect for a gentleman known asTodd but my guess, is they represent the Batman editorial department, are singing songs of yuletide to the citizens of Gotham city are attacked by winged creatures called the Draug. For true Batman comic readers his Robin here is his actual son,which he had with the daughter of his enemy Ra Al Ghoul in the story known as "Son of the Demon" which is written by Mike O Bar. In that story Batman has a son, yet is not mentioned for years. His son is named Damien Wayne. Recently a few years ago I had seen a whole Robin comicbook trade where Damien had to prove his chance at being not only Bruce's son, also his reasoning for being his dad's partner in being a crime fighter. Yet I am unsure if I happen to have that very trade from when I saw it at Adventures Underground...                                        Batman- Santa Claus《Silent Knight》came out in December of 2023 with these covers   

seen here. The first prints are at the top and were priced at 3.99 a piece, when the alternate variants with the superheroes on the covers were 5.99 a piece at the same time if you were lucky enough some comic shops had not only these but two other sets of variants as well.

As I said earlier in this post I had got at least one of each of these two sets seen here issue one of the first prints and the wonder woman issue of the fourth issue I believe? Yet for this whole review I am using the trade which is of the upper left one of the first prints with Superman reading a comic with a Christmas theme Batman cover to a child who is sitting on his lap.
So how issue one this very series opens up is Bruce Wayne and Damien Wayne as Batman and Robin are investigating a crime scene of where some creatures have attacked some Christmas Carolers in uptown Gotham city and the creatures look like this

 

and Batman comes as he always does with a backup plan and sent a call out to Zatanna who come to Gotham from Europe via a snow-transport spell. She is the one on Santa's lap on the upper left variant cover.  Zatanna I believe is one of Decetevice Comics answer to Marvel's sorcerer supreme better known as Doctor Strange, the only thing so far that I know is definitely different is Zatanna announces her magic spells backwards. Then 

Santa appears on top of building across from where the investigation is taking place and tells both Robin and Zatanna who he is by letting them know he knows where there live, before telling Batman he has been following his exploits for years he also reveals what the creatures are name wise.... 
    By the end of the first arc (issue) , we learn that Santa has come to to Gotham to help the world understand that he is here to help fight his own darker self known as Krampus. In the Second issue we the readers learn of the history between Kris Kringle and his as ( I described it...) a darker version of himself. The writer Jeff Parker knew that he had to have a great diversity against Santa Claus that he had history with... so Jeff remembered the stories he had learned from when he was growing up and what he knows from the internet,  along with his own ideas of the creature called Krampus. Here is what both Santa and Krampus are     

   

                                              like during this Christmas theme tale. Oh one thing that I forgot to mention was in issue one, Santa even with Batman and his friends and family's help couldn't stop one of the wounded Draug that had covered Zatanna with a unknowable pollinating from a colorful set of flowers that rise from the dead creature chest... and cover her in green goo. That takes her out for the remainder of the story.  Besides  learning about the history of Krampus and Claus in issue two we the readers are treated to seeing other members of the justice league... ( Which to my understanding of the D.C. cannon universe hasn't been seen since twenty two I believe? I could be mistaken but I also may be right, and that's me being honest actually). With the heroes now not having a personal ace of a magical chance against the dark side of Kris Kringle, the justice league slowly starts helping Batman and Santa Claus because they see they Draug creeatures effects on each of their own existence and cities as well.... As Krampus fearfullness spreads through out the world even the need of a certain Kryptoniten is felt by all. And when Kal or as he is better known to the world arrives Superman is definitely surprised to finally be meeting Santa Claus!  
      In the opening of issue three this world spaning Christmas tale, Krampus forces of hostile harpies are on a all out attack on Hyde Park,  in London on Christmas Eve morning brings out Hawkgirl, Jo (the youngest of the female Green Lanterns), your general understanding of the Green Lanterns knowledge is mostly male oriented as is mine I am sure for the generation you are apart of.  I mainly know the main Green Lantern as Hal Jordan.... How many do you the reader of this know if I could please ask.) And finally the best known female character of the D.C.  universe has joined in on helping Santa Claus fight his darker side, she is known of course as the Amazonian warrior princess          
    

Wonder woman. ( Now if you are to ask me if I like the design of Diana Prince I am not entirely certain if I know for cretain because I have always known her main costume as a bathing suit more like this 

           but at the same time I can honestly understand why comic companies have a set of changes to accommodate a series of comic arcs storywise. Yet some fans like what they do love).  Throughout this particular part of the story Krampus is building his strength as Batman and the justice league of this world as small as it ( I will explain more about it a little bit later), is joining Santa Claus and his elk known as Prancer.... sorry but no Rudolph and I think that is because Jeff Parker liked/loved Prancer more than any other  reindeer from the classic song. This issue also has a Spider-Man like character known as Blue Beetle who transports the  non flying heroes to an island with a tree to finding another friend of Kris Kringle's named Peppermint Jon who comes the North pole's toy workshop to take them all to Port of Aheim, Vanylvs FJORD, Norway... where the team fight off a sea serpent and Krampus together... and yes by this point Krampus has the upper hand by not only kidnapping Damian Wayne, He finds a way to make Superman his toy puppet and uses Superman to unleash all kinds of monsters on December twenty third....                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  In the fourth and final issue of this story opens on Christmas Eve of a Batman tale featuring him and Santa Claus going on with their battle with Santa's darker side known as Krampus  with the help of some members of the Justice League, helping them to save the holiday itself. Now the team is in Greenland and are trying to find a way to take down a possessed Superman who has Krampus' soul inside of himself this very night, while also trying to find his son Damian who is in a magical cage in one of the many forrests of Greenland. The youthful Blue Beetle character has way to fight the Krampus spirited filled Superman that nearly kills both of them.... As to what it is you are going have to  find this very trade because I don't want to spoil it for Ye who really wants to know.... oh before I get into my overall grade of this Christmas yarn from twenty,  twenty three and start this year's Batman Santa crossover because there is one yes, I want all of you comic fans to know that the regular Justice League title of the main D.C. universe hasn't been around for at least since twenty,  twenty one if I am not mistaken as to why that is entirely I know that I haven't a real clue about how long the real team will be gone for? Maybe one thing that I can think about as a answer is maybe someone or some company outside of Decetevice Comics has bought the rights for a while to using the characters for a while... like back when Marvel comics filled for bankruptcy in nineteen ninety six to survive the sold the rights of several characters like X-MEN, SPIDER-MAN, and the Fantastic Four to cretain studios to keeping ownership of the characters in Marvel's ownership and form that time in nineteen ninety six, till twenty twelve Marvel used the Fantastic Four characters very little in their main comic continuity.  For they were co owned by twenty century fox films. But who knows if something like that is the reason for the Justice League not having a title for so long is! As to my grade of Batman-Santa Claus Silent Night story I will give it a B plus. Because it has done something no other Decetevice Comics title did... it has me wanting to read more of their comics and that's rare thing seeing me with a comic from that company unless it's something I really love that is being published by them!

Classic Troup of Sci-fi/Horror fun from films of old.... or something else entirely???

Hey comic fans of all kinds of stories,                                                                                                   Well for this review I have been thinking quite a lot of old movies that I haven't seen in a very long time that at some point I know that I have to review here on this ongoing little thing that I try to do daily if I can get the chance to do it. The two main movies that happen to be on my mind at the moment are The Day The Earth Stood Still (the original one from nineteen fifty one), and Return of the Living Dead and fit very well into this very entry,  which at some eventual time I am planning on reviewing through out this very blog. So is there by any chance of a science fiction and horror films that are a way to elude to a chance of a completely EXCITING comic story....                                                                          Of course for all of you who know the real me, that when I get into reviewing something I will give it my most definitive attention. Especially when it comes upon knowing comics in and out of getting maybe you wanting to checking it out for yourself and seeing how you like a new richness of a new type of a small short story from the creative minds from people who want to boarding our understanding of both having fun and also going out with their ideas to understanding our imaginations with either classic characters that we all do know or new ones that are certainly created by at least the story architecture of the writer and the illustratior. But of course, in the end of everything  you can just read my review here if that is what works best for you as well?                                                                             Here is the very comic that I am going to be sharing the content of...                                               

In THE COLONIZED, which is written by Chris Ryall and illustrated by Drew Moss, in the state where  you used to be able to go pretty much as fast as you wanted on the roads it turns out has a really strong, yet very broken community that is definitely divided on it's expanding growth by it's leading family known as the Robertsons has recently just buried their father Rennie in the town's cemetery, by his son Huxley. Who with his closest friends view something in the night sky 

that statlers them and also some other citizens who don't necessarily agree with Hux's views on the governance of Carbon Falls, Montana way of life...                                                            But they all are very well scarred out of their wits when they go to see what has become a very interesting object in the woods. There all of the town's folk find a space vessel that's in ruins 

, and as they argue over what's inside the downed craft from outside of our own solar system they come in contact with some very equally scarred visitors from beyond our galaxy. Who don't want to wage war on the human race, they want our help?                              See the aliens were trying to find out if they could make contact with a inhabitant of the planet earth only to find out what they had found was a dead cropse that they pulled from a recent burial plot in the Carbon Falls cemetery with an transporter beam to their vessel. One mystery that has me interested most about this story is Chris's development of bringing the Zombies into his story telling! This comic is published by IMAGE comics and isn't limited to just two cruse words like if it were published by either Decetevice or Marvel comics, where when if some characters swears they use prompts so that their stories are equally important yet safe for all type of readers from youngsters to adults of all kinds. It's their way of keeping one aspect of the created comics code authority in check from the mid nineteen fifties of publishing comics. Drew's pencils really give the story a impressive impact. I am willing for my rank of a grade for this very comic is an C plus!
