A SPECIES WITH A PLAN TO KILL US HUMANS DEAD!

                                                                                                                  Hello comic loving fans worldwide,               
Here's the first comic from my most recent comic pickup of the first week of April in twenty, twenty three. When I saw this comic at Adventures Underground it just screamed true classic science fiction from a long forgotten era of everything from old time radio programs to finding a way of if you are a kid in the early nineteen forties through the nineteen fifties to getting your hands on banned novels or even banned movies this very comic is for you!  Before we get into the greatness of the mysterious world of PLAN 59 FROM OUTER SPACE number one, I have to remember and remind myself of a certain New York psychiatrist named Frederick Wertham that was admittingly claiming that the things within the four color magazines known as comic books are filled with very undeniably bad influences for young developmental brains. One such example he presented at conference that he had with the United States senate was that a child could completely be convinced that from the character of Superman that they can fly from high places. It was because of his argument of this and other type of influences that the C.C.A. was created. I  will eventually get to what the whole meaning of what the C.C.A. was, for I am just out of curiosity looking  to studying his arguments in his book titled Suduction of Innocent, which I am still trying to decide where I want to purchase it from.                                    Now on with my thoughts and review of PLAN 59 FROM OUTER SPACE  #1. This title is not from the Big Two companies that make comics, nor is it from Image,  Dark Horse or even others of smaller comic publishing companies either. A little less than a year and half ago there were a set of creative people who went and left the BIG TWO comic producers and they went on to create their own products... Wait a quick minute doesn't that sound kind of familiar? What it is that I am referring to is when seven comicbook artists left both Marvel and Decetevice Comics in the latter half of nineteen, ninety one to form their own company, where each of said artists is able to keeping their creations under their own creativity of copyrighted materials. The comic company they forged is IMAGE comics in the early months of nineteen, ninety two. The creators this time  around aren't illustratiors like back then over thirty years ago, but are writers their creative imprint is called SUBSTACK comics.  
       PLAN 59 FROM OUTER SPACE is from the SUBSTACK imprint and is crafted from the minds of Michael Dolce (story), James Mascia (story &script), Joaquin Gonzalez (artist), Daniele Caramanico (colorist), Taylor Esposito (lettering), C.B. Zane did the wonderful cover. The retail price is $ 4.99, as far as I know this series has only a newsstand print of the cover, as to if there's any direct comic store version I don't have any knowledge at all.   The story starts out with a woman named Paula who talking to her fiance about his work whilst listening local news about the local police officer has gone completely missing... Paula's fiance goes off to work. Before going to bed she hears of a unidentified flying object in another part of California. While sleeping she is attacked by mysterious beings...      Now she is attacked by everyone in the whole town? When apparently only a man who survived her assault ended up in one one town's many graveyards and is taken by huge unidentified flying object, say what?  
    All that we as readers know is, that whatever has just happened is it a dream that Paula's been having from R.E.M. sleeping or is there more to this as we find out that whoever is maintaining oprational control of yet an unseen UFO are trying to find her specifically!  
Throughout this comic that I read, I have to say that the story really did make me see of how evey kind of genres are able to be a creative perspective of never just one single thing, and you the reader are just done with a twenty two pages of words and illustrations that give us a yarn of many given thoughts on how grand a tale of possible power can be used... While I was witnessing both joy and excitement of maybe an opportunity for aliens to conquer the planet earth in a new way that hasn't been a way they have ever tried before, I was glad that I got to see some other plans that these aliens have been using before but have dropped their hand each time because... well let's just say because for now as a open answer! I loved how it in its own way also felt like there should have been a very offbeat Mystery Science Theater commentary track, within the comic itself...

So should I or Shouldn't I?

Hello All,                                                                                                                                                        So without any doubt I will admit that today's suppose to be full of great puns throughout the course of the whole day... but for the first time in many years for the life of me I can't seem to find a joke worth needing to share. Since I can't find a pun worthy of needing to be told, what is worthy of being here is something that I haven't gone too as far as I know since back when Lyle my brother had passed away in twenty thirteen or rather just shortly after!                                                                                                                              Okay just to let you know that it was my biological brother Michael's, goodness that as I may have said before that got me into this particular online game called Star Trek Timelines. It was in early April back in twenty fourteen or it was mid April that he gave me my greatest addition outside of comic collecting which I will admit is my own choice when I was a teenager. I am just so excited about where I am in the Star Trek Timelines game and I want to just talk about it!                                                                                                                The very simple way to explain the overall background of the online game known as Star Trek Timelines goes back to an new online game builder called Distributor Beam whose Chief of Executive operations had contacted the Paramount licensing company through their parenting network company for airing their ongoing productions over live television that is Columbia Broadcast Systems back in the earlier months of twenty fourteen about making a strategy online game from their well established known science fiction series called Star Trek. It was launched in April of twenty fourteen and was structured to have many different types of game play availability such as having a basic crew from any of the various series of the original series to Enterprise and all of the movies, from the Star Trek the motion picture to Star Trek Nemesis of the last film by the next generation cast as well. Distributor Beam was able to get the rights to use lines of dialogue from all of the various Star Trek series from CBS television and Paramount studios to use for certain versions of main characters in the game.                                                 I still remember when I started my version of the game I chose to be mostly medical staff for my ship and for my choice of captain  was Benjamin Sikso from Star Trek Deep Space nine with the card seen here. 

I can tell this card has three sound clips as I mentioned just a moment ago, one of those lines of dialogue is "I'M NOT PICARD" Sisko said this to the ongoing foe of Jean Luc Picard from the DS9 episode "Q-LESS" of season one of the series. This card is a uncommon crew with a green boarder around it, there are blue, purple,gray, and of course Legendary in the color Gold.                                                                                                                                     For the last nine years of playing this game, it has had one change of who runs the programming of the group known as Distributor Beam to Tilting Point, which happened on March twentieth, in twenty, twenty Tilting Point created a sub brach to run Timelines called Wicked Realms games. They have added in the last three years of adding crews from everything from Star Trek Discovery to the current stuff of Picard to the animated series called Lower Decks. The amount of characters throughout the whole game as of right now is one thousand and three hundred and forty seven, of which I happen to have six hundred and thirty seven of the characters of varying varieties among the colors I mentioned of before. The only part of the Star Trek productions that are not included with in the game are the three Star Trek films by JJ Abrams and his film production studio known as Bad Robot. Yet they do allow for his other former coworkers have their created series of the science fiction franchise have their characters like Michael Burnham seen here 
from Star Trek Discovery how odd huh?                                                                                                     On the card of Burnham at the Jump seen above, it is at hundred percent complete, expect that I have to build her last four boxes on the right of side of the card to immortalize the card itself. After doing this by doing away missions or spaceship battles the card will have the space background similar to the Promoted Sisko one. Now nine years later into the game I am about to hit another warp experience of excitement in this game itself that I am really wanting to be sharing about!                                                                   As for the meaning of this very post title of  "So should I or Shouldn't I?" relates to my current place in my game board of S.T.T.L. looks like this. 
What you're looking at here is my current ship that I am using within the game. It's was created by Wicked Realms the ship's name is U.S.S. RODDENBERRY with it's restrigy number being NCC-7100, it was released back in twenty twenty one to celebrate the man who came up with Star Trek as a idea way back in the mid nineteen sixties on his centennial day of being born, on August nineteenth, nineteen twenty one. His nlame was Gene Roddenberry so the game paid homage to him with a ship named after him. Here is 

  the resigty and name up close. To me with me, being the biggest Star Trek fan that this very ship is pretty close to being formatted even the game is very close to the other starship known as the Reliant that Admiral Kirk and the Enterprise crew faced through out the second big screen adventure known as Wrath of Khan. Or maybe it could be a potential possible Next Gen forthcoming Star Gazer from when Picard is a first officer in Untold Next Gen stories I am also thinking that way too, about it. 
                           Anyway onward with what the true massive meaning of this very entry comes down to is that I know very shortly or maybe a long way is possible, I am about to reach level one hundred on the area in the left corner of the screen.  Right now here is the character icon 

seen here or rather this is a full view of the Breen soilder I been using since I had my last birthday when I turned just fifty last year as my game icon. The Breen characters happen to have a long history in the next generation part of Star Trek lore. My quest for thought that I am wanting your help with is which of these four seen here                                           



The top one is Balock from the original series episode The Corbomite Maneuver. Which featured Happy Days star Rod Howard's little brother Clint who portrayed the Balock,  who was in search of a campion while he explored space. This character is available in the Q gauntlet and is very much a rarity to getting in Timelines. Then my second top choice is The professor better known as James Mortarirty who is the arch rival of Sherlock Homles. Which was portrayed by Daniel Davis in "Elementary Dear Data" and "Ship in a bottle" of TNG series. My main Third choice of choosing for my character icon is an in game created version of Mirror Universe Data. Finally my main other choice that I am deciding on is a character from the never shown pilot of Star Trek known as "The Cage" that had an alien race known as the Talosians (which I have been promising to review of, for a very long time, because I have been meaning to also start an over view  of the whole series for a few years now...), the one seen here was their leader The Keeper. Who even knows I might go and just find myself surprising us all with who I actually decide on choosing for my character icon by my level bar?                                                            Now as to the actual pun on this day of foolish puns from me Matt is finally getting here after a rewarding review of my way out online activities besides writing this very little thing called Daylifeofthematt. Even though I have recently just gotten done watching my favorite anime series from when I was back in the early part of my elementary schooling years known as Star Blazers, well here's the juicy joke of it all on my tablet when I was opening my tablet I was greeting was this. 
The promotional poster for Beforever Yamato,  and then when I was looking at my screen of my tablet for the month of March I was literally blown away each day because of the newest version of the fictional version of the Yamato was firing it's most powerful weapon known as the planet killer possibly                                                                                      
their weapon known as the Wave motion Gun from the newest series called Star Blazers 2202... which is a retelling of the Comet Empire portion of the series. When I went an opened my phone over the month of March was this  
the exact same image of the promotional poster from the second big feature anmaited flim of the Yamato's adventures in the home country of Japan in the early nineteen eighties. But this time it's the full poster with Derek Wildstar and Nova as we Americans know them, but who is the girl on the left side of Derek is who? Well without any doubt I don't know either but that is not true either it turns out that she is Sasha Wildstar his niece. If you are thinking that even though it is April Fool's day that Matt joker guy wouldn't be so obvious to say that his main wallpaper on his phone is the exact same of the Yamato firing it's wave motion gun.....    
Umm well YES and NO at the same time. In the end of the day of snickering,  I only truly know that from both images of the wave motion gun firing is superiority bright and is eye blindly cool. To getting a lot closer to ending this amazing entry I want to show you all the main game load screen of Star Trek Timelines 
so this has a bit of everything of Star Trek in it from Next Gen vessels in a ongoing fight with the Doomsday Manchine from the original series. Which I think is eventually able to get in the game playing throughout a subsequent part within the game! Oh before I leave you to your own jokes I don't want to forget to share the background plate of the month     

    of  March! And you do know what it refers to or I hope that you do!
