A cool Blue Halloween for sure

                                        
So with it being the night that all people or at least most that will always profess to having a heart of a child are most likely going be something other than their everyday self and heck why not? This year  I had plans to being something really neat, but because of my step brother Lyle's passing last month I felt that this year I owed him a very nice tribute. Hence the title of this very entry gives away a small clue in a way.........

I know this to be.....

Hello Spider-Man Fans,
  Are you a for lack of a better word if you are a fan of the Spider-Man Marriage being deceived by his publishing owners called Marvel Comics especially with this tease image shown here that popped up 


as you can see from Entertainment Weekly magazine, website.  I for myself will say this since I have NOT  picked up a Spider-Man book and REALLY WANTED TO NEED TO READ IT, WITH MY FULL HEART FOR CONTENT, since the event that broke marvel comics as a whole for me was this sad driven event eight years ago? to me it seems like more than that and maybe it always will be! The so called story that BROKE MANY FANS HEARTS IS THIS RIGHT HERE: 
 

known best as the ultimate worst Spider-Man story ever "ONE MORE DAY".  I think everyone who knows me Matt Byrd personally KNOWS THAT FROM THAT SAID FOUR PART STORY, THAT I HAVE A GREAT DISLIKE OF MARVEL'S DIRECTION, IN HOW EVERY "FLIPPING" THING  IS/FROCED TO BE LIKED or LOVED. IT'S MORE LIKE THIS, SINCE "ONE MORE DAY" was published over seven forgotten years ago, to make the editor in chief happy for he couldn't see that true fans of Peter Parker's life did enjoy the past of the character's history for over twenty two and a half years known as the marriage of Mary Jane Watson and Peter Parker. 




Which was written way back in "The AMAZING SPIDER-MAN Annual #21 in the year of nineteen eighty seven. Marvel the company for the first few years did keep everything comfortable for the fans sake through back at the time four ongoing titles and one shots. Then in nineteen ninety four it was time for a change or so some people within Marvel's infrastructure wanted Peter Parker to be single a care free superhero like he was from his beginnings in the sixties, but oh how to do it was the problem? or was it? The writers summit of in nineteen ninety three for the upcoming year had decided Peter Parker had just had an anniversary of saving his friend Curt Connors who had tried to harm his own son Billy Connors to yet again try to cruse all of humanity with his son being the first subject. In the end of the issue Peter and Mary Jane go to visit aunt May who has a strange pair of guests visiting her, it turns out they are his long dead parents: Richard Parker and Mary Parker. The rest of  what were Peter Parker's parents went on with it being revealed they were robots sent to kill Parker from his long dead friend Harry Osborn the son of the original Green Goblin had created them to kill Peter himself. Which lead into the beginning of the clone saga for at the time Peter was losing himself  altogether as Spider-Man while aunt May was suffering from him being to busy as Spider-Man, while getting a call from a mystery man whom went and turn out to be Peter's clone that we had last seen in the Amazing Spider-Man # 151, when Peter after being reassured by Curt Connors that he was the REAL DEAL of being Spidey, Spidey himself dropped the clone down a smoke stack. The man who has been calling himself Ben Reliy for sometime came back to do Peter's job of being there for aunt May via as the Mystery Man mentioned above. It was halfway through the story in nineteen five that Marvel filed for chapter 11 because of bad accumulations business wise that they didn't for about four years time altogether, yet they continued to put out their line of comics no matter what! The Clone Saga ended with it being the True Green Goblin Norman Osborn was really never dead from back when he had killed Peter's love Gwen Stacy in the summer of nineteen seventy three. 

     With the failure of the clone saga not really working to make Peter single again Marvel for the next few years kept trying to keep him and Mary Jane separated, or have Mary Jane be gone by "a horrible means", just anything at all to make the editors happy. When they did pull open their Pandora's box to have it happen with "OMD" tons of comic fans left marvel because of what they did with they company's most iconic mascot they made him into a villain by him of course making a deal with Marvel version of the devil to once again save aunt May's life. The cost was his and Mary Jane's happiness, their marriage! Now seven years later they want us to believe them when they say it's a mistake on our part for what one editor wanted most of all no happiness for either character of Peter and Mary Jane with him still part of the company and you already know whom I'm talking about.... An with me already knowing that marvel isn't truly ready to admit what they have done was a cruse to the company as well as the character of Peter Parker I say to loyal true Spider-Man fans when this comes out next summer know this it is a trick no matter what we really want as a true treat, so please support marvel in other ways if you must but I say let Spider-Fans continued to hold out for new management as a whole!

For you mother of mine


Hello All,  
  Well today just isn't any other day to be missed no matter if your last name happens to be Byrd, Mickleson, Henderickson or just good ol plain Watson. Here is a set of family from all of the ones named just a moment ago that do know that someone in some of these 



is having a wonderful day today. The birthday girl, is none other than Nancy Powers Watson or as she is known to the next generation as Mimi, which is grandma for those lost on names of great grandparents no matter what! She lives in Cuenca, Ecuador with her best friend and love Chuck Watson, whom have been married since June nineteen eighty five. Lately I would like to think that my mom besides being a grand world traveler knows that every moment of life is better than age of any number you put onto or under your belt of the something called life. I will admit that anyone who has a mom or female elder I guess if she's not related by the fluid called blood ANY AND ALL should respect that woman as the best key person in your life. For they may not always understand where you are in your walk in life is at certain times, but I do know this she loves you even when the words aren't there to be said and that is what every mom or sister wants to know most importantly about their impact on their offspring's time on God's Green earth.
   Happy Birthday, Mom
       Love you even if these words alone can't express it enough, your son Matt Byrd

Good bye to a Saturday morning brother



Hello All,
    Look I know that I Matt Byrd do share a lot of interesting stories here on my little nitch of the wondrous part of the world wide web known as Day life of the Matt, and as I'm listening to "All about love", album by Steven Curtis Chapman will help me feel right of sharing about a brother in Christ. He was a great many things besides being a servant of our heavenly father, he was a father himself, he help with many productions of a Christmas event known as "The Living Nativity", He loved visiting those who were sick or needed to hear a word of hope. He just recently went with his wife to Hawaii, I found out from another brother who was shopping at Albertsons that he had drowned while enjoying a swim. I always knew him as Pastor Dick I never learned his last name, but every Saturday morning for the past four years he was always so cheerful in lighting up your day with his "Hey there or was it Hi....." I'm just so much in tears for his family and his church brothers and sisters I know can't put enough into words of how much we each loved Pastor Dick. I guess what this short journey of life shows us all as the fragility of the meaning of life is a great wonderment no matter what paths we all set for ourselves that make living what we are given whether we have a long amount of years or just moments after being born of having it whisked away We as humans know life must be lived for every second we have. I remember Pastor Dick a couple weeks ago was saying to a DvD series we are studying in Men Breakfast called ED' Story about a person  with A.L.S. on a questionnaire the question was this "How do you plan on spending the time you have left, whether it's one year or fifty" His answer was rather unexpected but made sense, he said 

"I have had a good life of helping those who have needed to find encouragement in life and I hope with God's help that I have provided that in some small fashion to help as best I can through my giving of time" 
       I know that from both my step brother Lyle's passing in September to Pastor Dick of the church known as The Cathedral Joy just a few days ago since I heard this very moving news, I know life at any aspect of how one looks at it means you have to live life for not myself, but for hopefully helping others even if I don't know where it will take me it's the steps of how we learn everyday skills that help us in searching out Jesus Christ, in the biggest way possible?
         That being of course helping by encouragingly sharing your love of HIM rather huge or tiny remember this, we are all loved because of how we share our own experiences of hope and failure of how we trust in faith.

So am I PSYCHED for tonight?


Hello All,
  So before I go and answer the very question that I pose in the title of this blog entry which I'm sure anyone who is anybody already knows the answer to is? I must say even though he has this very quote to villains everywhere " YOU HAVE FAILED THIS CITY" throughout the series so far he to will admit to having "FAILED HIS CITY" a time or too. I have been binge watching it from the series beginning as I have said before since my step brother's brain injury that ended up taking his life. Of those episodes we learned in season one that he was on a stranded island as he tells his family and friends in the pilot, but come to find out he was given a list of names by his father and instructed to "RIGHT HIS FATHER'S WRONG DOINGS, OF STARLING CITY". We came to see how he took down street thugs and over the line crossing crime bosses throughout the course of season one only to find out that his mother Moria Queen was part of something hinted at. It was revealed that she herself had something to hide besides her knowledge of  what she took part in called "THE UNDERTAKING". The Undertaking resulted in a father killing his only and friend of Oliver Queen the Arrow's true self, and like any hero trying find himself Oliver blames himself for what happen to his friend even through he knows that the friend's father was the real killer, and Oliver killed him for trying to destroy the city. In year two of Arrow we find that a passenger who was with the Queens when the ship blew up is back as a vigilante herself.           
           Who tired to never let her own family knew she hadn't perished at sea like Ollie was letting his own family do from back in the past year, but at the same time Oliver didn't know she was running around either or from someone. What learn is that both she and Oliver before becoming they are now spent time on that island both trying get back to Starling city, yet when they hear that her family is used as a lure to draw them out into the open Oliver learns where his shipmate was when she went missing after fatal accident on the Queens Gambit the family boat of the Queen family. We also learn some ghosts never stay dead either of who the character Oliver Queen calls  a friend......Who is much like Peter Parker's Norman Osborn if you know what I mean? 
      There were a lot of unanswered questions at the end of season two like what had happen to the person who Ollie called his sister Thea Queen?, What caused the father of the female vigilante have his body be ripped up as if something was tearing at his insides? and yet most importantly how did Oliver in up in Hon Kong after being saved during the time he was thought dead! Yes I can say that as soon as I got season two in the mail I devoured it just as much as the first season, in fact I was up this past Friday night watching that part of him being in Hon Kong and was left wondering what are the show's writers and directors going do for season three, I guess like all fans of this series I'll be thrilled through out it all just to see what the cliff hanger will be aimed at for sure?   

One thing I can let you all know is this ONE of the man behind the foe known as this year's BIG 75 year old comic book character Batman is involved as the key villain on this season of ARROW! 

All I know is I have been struck by how Awe striking AWESOME this comic book character has pulled me Matt Byrd into wanting to know him more as a friend if he were a real person and my answer to my posed question is this just hit me with your best shot!

Matt's review of Barry Allen's new series in over two decades......


 Well to go and say it isn't the year of comic book proprieties making a splash in other media would be rather off beat or is it more the word that I'm looking for is "FL ASHY" is more in the way of what I'm striking at! Yes if you didn't know better there is just as much super heroes as there is of football and is it a hot iron as a filed goal or a "Hail Mary victory dance" you are darn tooting it is.  With old favorites like "ARROW" returning tomorrow night by the way on the C.W. network to "Marvel's Agents of Shield" which started season two a week ago on the ABC network you wouldn't think of something new like Fox's GOTHAM is anything other than a Batman year one storyline which I'm still considering on getting...... 
 

Yet there is one new super hero show that started tonight two hours ago by the name of "THE FLASH" as to how did I enjoy it? and will it be the next big ongoing thing superhero wise look for lighting striking result below the jump do give a bit of a speeding answer to Mister Allen's twist of powered fate, for sure!
