And now for my take on the second Alice tale...

Look I know it's been a while since we've chatted about the little blonde hair girl looking through the keyhole here. But yet I know of one whole story that I've not fallen through with you as a reading crowd. So let's break a mirror or two shall we? and see where the other side leads........

As you can see.....

Hello Crawly ones,
 I know that I always seem to put up links in some of my many postings here at the site, and just today earlier this morning in fact I got to thinking after making one for comic reviews 2013 that it would be so much easier for you the reader of the blog known as Day lie of the Matt if I made a very simple link hopping page for you to find stuff. So like here is what you'll find here in new links that have just appeared! I happen to call this new header on the blog "Just a bit on the side" it will be located right over the Spider-Man wife question on the right there for easy access. I'm sure I will be adding more to it at some given time too as well?

Grimm Fairy Tales: The Library (pt.1 of 5)


Hello there,

 Well today I want to share with you all a new comic book trade that I have gotten in the last few weeks. Still before I begin my only as so far known "All Ages" review I would like take a few minutes and talk about my own time with my local Library seen most recently here
is the place that I went to in the latter part of summers when I was in high school to see art exhibits, and get in on the used book sales right before school started again. In fact when I have in the past talked about meeting people I can tell you I did so at the Richland public library when I volunteered working there for a year's time in two thousand three over the late summer months, when I worked in the day shift instead like now midday to six something or other. Now let's jump into this other comic story besides "Alice in Wonderland" that has me enjoying comics again as well. It is called "The Library" by Zenescope press under their "Grimm Fairy Tales" label 
 
, as far as I know that is the only name they use that I'm aware of. The story is written by  Joe Brusha with art by Giovanni Timpano. Brusha's story consist of two kids that are brother and sister with their names are Thomas and Sela Mathers and their super rich over obsessive business driven father, who cares more about making deals to make himself richer, and continues to make empty promises to his two kids. Till one given school year he buys an old building that just happens to impress greatly on 


young Sela when she steps out of his limo. When she lifts her head to sky from where she's standing a awesome old building that her dad Mister Mathers has not so great plans for, once inside Mister Mathers has business with the property owner of the building a woman by the named of Ms. Sullivan. To ease the stress, of witnessing a huge battle of adult matters between their father and her Ms Sullivan tells Sela and Thomas to go see what their father will do by taking away the halls that are full of great adventures, as they start we see both adults getting testy on where they stand. You the reader come to find out that Thomas and Sela have found their way to a staircase that has a room at the bottom of it that Sela has fallen into and it is very big and empty of what kids of any age would like, expect for a podium that has a big leather covered book on it. Thomas happens to be playing with a tiny skull when Sela takes notice of the book and together they find hanging from the ceiling a key on a string and uses it to open the side of book when a keyhole lock is attached. As the look at the pictographs within the pages that they have open Sela realizes that her thoughts of this being a old book of spells is true! To prove to her brother that it is a book of Magic for he seems to doubt it, Sela reads this out loud "More exists than our eyes can see... More things live than can ever be... Beyond our sight but not our call...are places and creatures big and small from this book of the power comes....to bring them from... a world away...to the place they long to stay... and make them live with flesh and bone... so they shall call the world their home."  All of sudden the book spew out energy that brings all of the other books through out the whole library to life. Thomas happen to be pulled into a book of Greek Mythology while Sela is pulled into an area label on the shelf of Dinosaurs and the prehistoric world. Her father are no closer in their stalemate when he hears his daughter's cry for help. What he sees in front of him has him taken aback for all he and Ms Sullivan see are books full of that energy spewing everywhere...
        To Be Continued..... 
Here is the single issue comic cover of   
 














 
"The Library" which is included at back of the trade, by the way.          
 

But with it still being only the game of magic of our own sorts let me offer up your pieces of our famous hunter game: 
,
So good fortune guessing at the hidden desktop "power player game", hey I know I keep seeming to change it's very name of the game, still I do hope you do enjoy your summer reading material weather it books or comics. Just promise you'll have fun whatever it is your doing?

The machines that change form are.......


Hello to all Trans Fans,
 I just found out something rather odd about those machines that hide in plain slight? Okay I won't try to tease you about what it is I'm talking about here are the very machines that I am referring to they are known as AUTOBOTS 
and DECEPTICONS, better known as a whole as The Transformers have been a huge part of this very blog in one way or another. Now usually I have had up here for the past few months on Transformers Tuesdays comics, but earlier today I got an email from Amazon.com that those Robots in disguise are converting their gears of Energon sources to the ripe ol age of thirty something exactly, but I decree no matter how you try to change it they are without a doubt only twenty nine years in age, and in two thousand fourteen or twenty fourteen as some call the approaching year is when both sides of the Transformers will be thirty for nothing can disguise that truth? Here is when the actual toy line debuted here in the states in the fall of nineteen eighty four and starred in Saturday mornings cartoon series seen here
and after two seasons of the cartoon series came a movie that featured the classics of both sides being shall we say simply replaced, after both leaders are pulped. Still even though you have heard this many times before there is of course always something new to add to the mix, and since we here mostly for this year have started having comics reviewed see here at the link below  the ones I have out so far.......Well in chapter two the book seen here 

I have been waiting for the right time to read "COMICS". From what I've seen in the over scope of just looking at the chapter itself, it contains pretty close to everyone who has helped build even more functioning life into the cybernetic lifeforms from the planet known as Cybertron from here in the states with Marvel comics (ugh please just put out a quarterly "married take on Peter Parker's life so that you can have every aspect of Spider-Man covered for those who know change is right for the character's growth, please at least something?) all the way to London with the main writer being Simon Furman at the Marvel based offices in that part the world. Then for a short time nothing of Transformers was beating in comic form till early two thousand and two when Dreamwave productions started a new look to all the characters and their histories that fans still seem to love even till as I said before today.       Before I forget here are your three images to make as what's right for the plate game of this month:

Alice vs Alice (pt 3 of 6)


Hello from the depths within the place known as WONDERLAND, 
Okay, Okay, I will be the first to admit I have to get this out of my system because it has been jarring my mindset of just how is it I wish to open chapter three of the real classic tale of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and the Zenescope comic adaption take as well in a classic nineteen sixty six Nhua, Nhua, Nhua, Nhua BATMAN Nhua, Nhua opening monologue for of course "A MAD TEA PARTY!" So here now in my best announcer tone let's see where the wind chips fall where they may?  Thus far in the written text of the author known as Lewis Carroll's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland we have witnessed A child her age is never disclosed as of yet.....is with her elder sister drifting off to la-la land and realizes she has followed a White rabbit into his hole only to find that she can't find her way out 
. So she finds that her curiousness is abound when she starts trying to find her way to a garden behind a door she can't get into.... So far every resident being is projected in that matter of being a animal with more and more questions for little Alice. These very animals so far outside of the rabbit itself have been a over relaxed caterpillar 
to huge puppy and finally a cat that can disappear whenever it wants to. An yet the cat before showing Alice it's form of play had asked the little girl two very important questions which were these....."Do you play croquet with the Queen to-day?" which we will gander at soon but for now let's deal with his first question to her which is this  "In that direction," the cat said , waving its right paw round, "lives the Hatter: and in that direction,"waving his other paw, "lives a March Hare. Visit either you like: they're mad."
"But I don't want to go among mad people," the little girl known as Alice remarked. "Oh, you ca'nt help that ," said the Cat: "we're all mad here, I'm mad. You're mad" "How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice. Now with no where to go but a Tea Party let's us hold up our saucer cups in cheer....... 
It seems by the end of chapter six of the actual tale little Alice had come the abode of the March Hare wishing instead that she had gone right in the way of the Hatter place, when she comes to the Hare abode from the road she sees three subjects crowded around a huge table. It turns out that a man in a top hat and a suit is having tea with another rabbit and between the two of them was a Dormouse fast asleep. As Alice approached the table the two who weren't dozing were additively telling her off, but she came of her own free accord to the table and sat at one end of it, the March Hare then offered her some wine, Alice after seeing nothing on the table but a tea kettle had said "Then it wasn't civil of you to offer it" said Alice angrily. In which the March Hare responded by saying "It wasn't very civil of you to sit down without being invited" Alice then replied with "I didn't know it was your table, it's laid for a great many more than than three." 
 
It was then that only other human outside of the duchess, which had been invited to a croquet game with the Queen in the second part this tale. The human is a man as detailed above that is known as The Mad Hatter. He tells Alice when he first notices her that her hair wants cutting, Alice then snaps at him with this retort "You should learn not to make personal remarks, it's very rude." The Hatter then ask her a riddle "Why is a raven like a writing desk?"  This is truly the only part the whole Alice's tale of it's two stories that makes the reader think because Carroll doesn't answer it. ( I have still been thinking this out myself, because I'm sure there's some kind of a answer) anyway Alice seems to like this game that the Hatter 
 
has posed. When she can't give a answer and they respond with I haven't the foggiest either. The  Hatter and the March Hare start arguing over time and why it always is Tea Time, whilst Alice is annoying getting madder than even she would care for! The Dormouse now finally awake from his nodding off up to this part is asked by the two who surround him and the new guest for a story, rather reluctantly the new guest keeps asking too many questions and storms off from the crazy partiers as she sees the March Hare and the Hatter dunking, well have a look for yourselves is 

all I will say okay?                 
 Now as to the MAD TEA PARTY from Zenescope's view cover wise was sold like these:


In the opening splash page it does seems as if the Mad Hatter is talking to himself? or it at least seems that way?.......when in truth he is talking to the only unknown part of Alice in Wonderland history as far as I know at all?, the one thing I can only guess at is she was the one who was asking questions to the White rabbit about Where Jabberwocky's latest pawn is from last issue!    
She gives the Hatter a very special weapon known as the Death blade, which can kill everything in Wonderland and keep it dead for real! As for what was going on from the past two issues let's let the main gal known as Alice tell us in her own words            , as she talks to a disguised Mad Hatter. After drinking her cup of tea, laced with sleepy mushroom powder Alice comes to find herself in even more fearful a place than either being prized as food for a walrus or a huge purple striped cat, she finds out at a huge table that have three people at it, that she is a bargaining prize of all the animal persona's of Wonderland, itself and still she knows not why.It seems as if the Mad Hatter made a deal with the March Hare for something, and when he doesn't get it, the Hatter starts acting like a certain Batman foe, and leave it at that! Then both he and ol Cheshire are left wondering where that said prize 
went off to?     

Without a wondering clue for sure this will be continued......

Alice vs Alice (pt 2 of 6)


........ Previously in the Zenescope's insightful take on the little girl known as Alice all we knew was she had fallen into a strange world where she had reached through by way of 
a Rabbit hole. When she had started hearing sounds of whispers  that turn out to be more than voices from her soul and rather from her own noggin she knew that at first glance that she had to let her curiousness guide her especially 
 
when she decided a dream is always better than dealing with the reality of the real world.......  And now she maybe regretting that very choice when all of the animals wanna do is treat her as their next little ham on rye wherever she turns..... We now will follow her through a place known as Wonderland in part two of Raven Gregory's twisted take of Alice in Wonderland! Here is the cover to the second part of his yarn of the six part comic 
.  There is one big thing beside Alice's quest of staying sane, that happens throughout this issue and that is the little mystery of just whose pawn piece is the White Rabbit
  , for he seems to suffer as much as Alice herself does as he brings Wonderland's inhabitants together for a party. He happen to have the Chershire's help in finding Alice for the creature known as 
Jabberwocky. Alice in the meanwhile, is learning other effects of Mushrooms in this place known as Wonderland as she convinces the walrus not to have her as his meal 
, than just what the  White Rabbit did to Jabby in issue #1 which was he used it to put him to sleep. She also learns how the walrus was a scientist named Tiberius and how he like her saw a rabbit while finding out this dreamworld they are in, while 
 
going with him to actually find some food to eat. It is when she ask him about the Rabbit that things go let just say a wee bit insane for she hides in closet while the walrus is killed by a unknown man who the walrus called a friend. Alice herself comes out of the closet and picks up the man's mallet and beats his right leg out of commission, she runs away 
 ,while the man is cut to pieces by Chershy. To any place that might be safe.......  

Now on to the original story called Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, in part one I told you all of Alice falling into the rabbit hole into Wonderland and took you up to the first three chapters of the story. Which when she is finally in the area of the door that has the garden behind it, she is alone again for she talks of he cat to animals birds, and mouse, and even a  a crab
 











(don't ask me what that sea animal would fear from a feline....) and not down a rabbit's home looking at a set of doors as a way back into the real world. When I first wrote about "A new take on miss Alice" was when I had started falling into Wonderland myself. I went to Branes and Nobles and after getting this comic trade on 
that given Saturday which twas he last Saturday in July I had got this copy 
of Lewis Carroll's original story the very next day. So for part two of the original story of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland will consist of chapters four through six. So enough with recapping of how my Alice fix got started alright......

In chapter four Alice sees the White Rabbit for the actual second time as he comes to her again he calls her "Mary Ann" and wonders why she is mistaken for his housemaid, while he is looking now for the Duchess, he has Alice help him fetch his white gloves and fan at his abode which gets Alice to thinking of yet once again her feline pet known as Dinah ordering her around and though she doesn't want do it, it is still here childlike mind that must know what the rabbit end goal is. She follows to where he guides her which is a little house that has a door with bright brass plate with the name "W.RABBIT" engraved upon it, she enters the house and runs upstairs to find the gloves and the fan before she would hopefully NOT run into the real Mary Ann.(One may wonder if Marry Ann, could have been a girlfriend that Dodgson knew before he took up the pen name Lewis Carroll I'm just curious as to if anyone who dwells deeply into the writing of this may come to that bit of insight or maybe it's just me, because in the Disney animated film the rabbit also calls her Mary Ann so your left wondering if she is real at all is what I'm getting at?) So once Alice is the room of the rabbit's abode she finds not only what she's looking for but also on the very table as well another little bottle that stood near the looking glass, (as to if this scene itself point out the title of Alice's second book I'm not really sure on that, but when I read the text to me that just instantly popped into my head I just wanted all to know that! The main difference of this very bottle and the one that stood on the three legged glass table from when the story starts is this one doesn't have a label on it that says "DRINK ME" so because every time something interesting happens to her when she consumes the liquids in this world she decides to gulp it down and when she does she grows alright so big that she ends up struck in the very room she now can't get out of at all, and she was sad again but in the way of fear as the rabbit and his friends which by how they are described are a gofer, a lizard, try to help the rabbit get the little girl who is a thousand feet tall in height out of his house they or rather the rabbit use logic that at last perhaps they should burn down his home. Alice told them she would sick her cat on them if she did  get burned up but this time the animals went scarred for what fear could a feline strike in these animals.Alice heard the rabbit say "A barrow ful will do to start with" She was more perplexed now as to what they were planing to get her out of the house, and realized from her size they were firing little stones at her which turn out to be small cakes she ate them and shrunk in size again to what she was when she first ate the cakes from before she fell into her own saltwater tears from before. Now she went off without thanking these many animals of helping her out of her plight, and headed off into the woods and into eventually the lovely garden she wanted to be apart of when she came across a huge puppy who wanted nothing to do but play, she pick up a tiny stick after hiding from him because she thought he would eat her (boy all the animals of Wonderland weather in comic form or narrative form want to eat poor little Alice did you notice that too.) After wearing the pooch away from her Alice, was soon to meet a very thoughtful changing animal character next. At the start of chapter five of the original Alice's Adventures in Wonderland the little girl known as Alice meets a as I said just above a animal that changes forms, now I won't put you through the brain wracking search of guessing how many animals do tend to go through a metamorphosis to a new appearance of form as well 
, it happen to be that the very first changing animal little Alice meets up with in the outskirts of the garden is the Caterpillar (which is the one reason a lot people don't read this book to children today) all in all of all the animals Alice must relate with in wonderland is the most scariest for he represents a part of the real world that people wish be forgotten: Drugs.  In the middle of the two them chatting about size being of importance Alice tells the caterpillar a poem she recalls of that she remembers when he had just asked her whom she was it's as if the caterpillar in a way is not only her guide of wisdom before she finds it herself, but he is the only one to give her full attention. The poem by the way is about what the mouse was explaining to all the other animals that came out of the saltwater tears of Alice's own making when she had first entered a dark hallway with many doors in it from chapter two: Which was about politics of  William the conquer, but this time it was from Al;ice's thougts and not someone esle's. The caterpillar says she is out of line because he likes his own way of thinking ...... but offer her a easier way to change her size with either end of a mushroom, she just has to remember which side will make her big and which side will make her small and besides it's better than marked or unmarked bottle of mystery liquid that shrink her size and cakes that make her ginormous. She then goes in search of the rabbit again but first finds two odd dressed animals of a fish and a frog looking for the Dutchess and even though we still don't know who the Dutchess is we know why the rabbit is looking for her in part and that is she whoever she is is invited to play a game of croquet with the queen in the sixth chapter titled "Pig & Pepper". Alice laughs and giggles as she sees the two water related creatures get their hair pieces entangled for both are wearing powdered hair that curled all over each head of the two water biased animals but she was hiding in the woods at the time because of her fear of them hearing her. After the fish leaves she goes to knock on the door and before she does the frog is there asking her riddles, it at this point that Alice was thinking to herself "ARE ALL the creatures I encounter crazy" The frog gave her a choice of either waiting outside or going into the house while he waited for nothing to do, Alice goes into the house and meets the said Dutchess whom is making soup of some kind and ask Alice about the Cheshire-Cat and something about a Pig. Then the Dutchess when Alice responded "what is a Cheshire -Cat?"didn't answer Alice's inquiry right away the cook who was making soup for the Dutchess and her baby that she was holding started throwing everything from fire irons then saucepans, plates and finally dishes. As these came towards her the Dutchess took no notice whatsoever, this worried Alice and she grabbed the baby not know what it was and ran into the woods......it was then up on a tree branch in the woods that she met 


the Cheshire-Cat that the Dutchess spoke of? When the cat was done asking her questions of such as if she would  be playing at the Queen's game Alice had just found the baby she had saved turned out to be that of a pig. She responded to the cat's question very politely that "I'd love to, but I haven't been invited yet." The cat then gives her another thing to ponder over as it disappeared from it's tail first to it's smiling grin.It is after this that she believes she is headed toward the March Hair's house talking to herself as she approaches "Suppose it should be raving mad after all! I almost wish I'd gone to see the Hatter instead!"                                            
Will things be "RAVING MAD" at a certain party???? Be here or with a special TOP HAT to find out better yet just bring the Tea and see for yourselves?  
To be continued.......

Alice vs Alice (pt 1 of 6)


Hello to all who know of the world of the White Rabbit and his pals, Now I know that the very first thing coming into your train of thought is how in the world are you going make a comparison of such a old fairy tale in any form when think of the little girl seen here
 is who Charles Luntwide Dodgson actual inspiration for the little blonde haired girl known simply as Alice. Her name was Alice Liddell and she lived from May fourth, eighteen fifty two till November sixteenth, nineteen thirty four, boy you know it really wasn't all that far away in time that both of my parents were born a few years later after the woman whom was the influence for the Alice of the two Lewis Caroll books, yet I do know that my father Micheal Joe Byrd had that very same day as his birthday too. Even though Dodgeson penned the written words of Alice's tales he did not illustrate either story, from the time Alice fell into the Rabbit hole 
, the drawings were provided by Sir John Tenniel a popular graphic humorist and political cartoonist whom lived in  Kensington London in eighteen twenty, and eventual time moved to the United Kingdom part before his death in nineteen fourteen.  One of many jobs that lead Dodgeson to create Alice in the first place was that he babysat kids while working as a photographer when he first met the Liddell family in eighteen fifty six, he meanwhile finishes his mathematics masters associate degree a year later from the Christ church of Oxford in which while lecturing on the subject  was when he came up with the word known more as a character in "Through the looking glass" :Jabberwocky. In Alice's Adventures in WONDERLAND it starts out as any story does with the main character Alice dozing off  while pondering why being a grown up person matters......when she'd rather focus on kid thoughts about making a daisy chain out a set of those follows. Now remember she is sleeping when she sees the White Rabbit
  for the first time, and decides to see where he is off to in mainly because he of what he is wearing is what most puzzling so on she followed him to his hole. A moment later Alice finds herself what she thinks in her mind as peering into the hole from above ground to be that she is falling into what can't be possible the rabbit's dug out home, and it turns out that she is still falling into what seems more like a well than a hole in the ground dug up by a furry creature with fluffy ears as she falls she notices that cupboards and bookshelves and maps are appearing everywhere and anywhere around her. (Note it is only in the Disney version that her cat Dinah falls with her in the nineteen fifty one, remember Disney made one more actuate to what I talking about here 

by Tim Burton in two thousand and eleven at least to some degree).  Alice after some thoughts on her loving feline finally reaches the bottom of whatever the rabbit hole really is again viewing the White Rabbit she tired to follow him only to find she was in a long hallway, that had many doors that were locked she came upon a three legged table made of glass and on it was a tiny golden key to open a door but which one for Alice hadn't found the door the key would fit or at least not as of yet. Wherever she was rabbit hole or well it was dark, and she was scarred, but at the door she was at she had tried the golden key only once when she did it a second time the door opened into a even stranger world than either a well or a hole at all. She peeked inside the locked door and saw a garden full of bright flowers. She then turn back to the three legged table hoping to find another way to look at what she sought through the whole other door that stood in her way, but found when she reached her hand out to what was on the table she found a tiny bottle with a note "DRINK ME" on it at first she hesitated thinking it maybe poison then went all in an drank what was in the bottle and grew tiny. All of sudden she realized she forgot the golden to unlock the door which she thought was on that glass table she began to cry and found instead on the table a glass box with a whole cake that said "EAT ME" on the outside note. She grew again but this too big she was able to grab the golden key but then what was to happen next would dare scare any child real or fictionalized. She had thought for a moment that she had heard the rabbit coming again but so unsure she recited her multiplication tables and figure out poems all while still having tears because she had no idea of how to get through the door to the garden or out of the dark hallway that lead only to the opening of what brought her here in the first place. For because being so over thoughtful she didn't realize she had fallen into her own saltwater known as tears, and all sudden she starts seeing a mouse float by then other animals as well from birds to crabs she was then thinking maybe I'll wash up on a beach, it turns out the mouse could talk and Alice could understand him so the mouse help guide all the other animals the way that Alice lead to shore wherever it might be! At last they had found a bank and were deciding how to dry themselves off before they got sick 
or at least Alice anyway. Alice while wading with the animals asked the mouse "why it is afraid of a cat or a dog?" but came to hear nothing of what the mouse had said in response they were all ready to get dry when a bird known as the Dodo asked of what shall be the prizes if there is a way to dry off, wouldn't you know it there has to be a prize hog everywhere how shameful is that? well anyway so there was a race an Alice offered up the prizes of thimbles all the animals were to say the least a bit miffed at this new visitor in their world and they all left poor little Alice alone once again..... In part one of the Zenescope produce comic look of Alice in Wonderland seen here
Alice doesn't have a sister she resides with but rather her grandparents, as to which parent of hers that they raised I do not yet know? She is talking with them about being scarred of something near a big hole in tree. Her grandfather says "Don't be afraid Alice, but sometimes in life we have to do stuff we just don't want to do and that's the way things are okay?"  She enter the knot hole in the tree to find out it is a tunnel to what she doesn't yet know? but at the end of the tunnel she sees a shadow of a rabbit while at the same time hearing faint voices calling out to her. When she reaches the shadow it does turn out to be a White Rabbit and he leads her to a room full of big doors, she asks "What are you doing?" he responses "NOT ME. Gravity" she then starts to hear another voice coming from the rabbit asking "Sometimes she likes to play" and Alice says while upside down now "And what if I don't want to play?"
and then she falls even further through space till she ses a mirror reflection of herself and she meets a green worm like monster that is the aforementioned character from Dodgeson's working lecture from eighteen fifty seven the Jabberwocky. They make a deal what it all entails I don't know this yet, but what I do know is he drops Alice right the middle of Wonderland again this time Alice is a preteen by the looks of her appearance of the aging of the character and that is the ever so constant thing that always is the only thing that does change oh one tiny thing more by the end of part one of the comic story eveything from the famed Cheshire cat to walrus from "Through the looking glass wants tasty little Alice as a meal to consume.........

A look into Darkness before May 17,2013 (pt. I of IV)

To TREKERS everywhere,
Hello to all who want insider trade secrets on the upcoming feature film staring ol favs like Bones, Kirk, Scotty, and yes that green blooded Vulcan known as Spock are in "Star Trek Into Darkness" which will be opening shortly after I return from my own little Trek into a place of light called Canada. I will hopefully be able to see it before I return to Albly's as I have famously nick named my workplace of Albertson's. Today I wanna introduce everyone who reads this blog to a feature known as  comic reviews 2013   it was started back during the first month of this year, yet this is the first one out of the publishing gate.The first comic of this series I got back in the latter part of this past January when I went to Adventures Underground
in uptown Richland. While looking for new stuff to look at to see if I wanted more in my monthly box (every comicbook store in the United States will hold a title for you as long as you pick it up with in the next month or sooner,  which reminds me in the first week of June or second one I have to check my box to see what goodies I have in it.) Back to the first of the year I was as I said looking at older trades here and there when on the area of where "New Comics" were I recalled a sub section where they happen to have a new set of the new and classic Star Trek comics while going through those I had found a comic, with the hand drawn Chris Pine version of Captain Kirk seen from this teaser art I found to "The official comic Prelude to STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS
. STAR TREK COUNTDOWN TO DARKNESS First issue  I just knew I had to have it and the forth coming parts as well, so I asked George one the store employee's to put it 's next parts in my box. He said he would or rather that the store would. So with the long,long overdue introduction out of the way I am please to bring you the review of issue # 1 of ST::CDTD!

My review of SPIDER-MAN season one


 Let me ask you all just one little thing okay maybe a lot more than just one, how does a company who has always been trying to keep their characters rich not learn to GROW THEM instead of repeatedly keep their audiences Hungering. Attention .Properly. Perching. Yearning.  (Did I just do something right there and yet not realize it with the word Happy, who knows....) Anyway can a slight twist on a classic make it new or better I'm in the unknown as much as you are? Yet with new twits to questions come more enriching answers. Like this two page spread
