Ditko's day

Hello to all true Spider-Man fans,
 As I am sitting here listening  to a Spider-Man Crawlspace podcast of the very last story I  read while collecting originally from in two thousand four called "SINS PAST" along with other Spider-Man current bits. That story is the one where Gwen Stacy had children who turn out to be really Norman's Osborn offspring outside of his own son Harry Osborn. That all aside, today is a grand day for one of Peter Parker's main creators, and it's not who you'd think of? In fact a few years ago I paid tribute to this very person and since I pay kudos to stars that I know of this also includes the most enduring: Family! This guy created many of Peter's core arch foes from the scientist seen here 

, that now is in Peter's mind currently. His name is Otto Octavius to his greatest foe known as Green Goblin seen here         

which from my understanding will be having a bout with SpOck minded Spidey come the spring of 2014 before the release of "The Amazing Spider-Man 2", which comes out in May. This creator was separated from the guy known as Stan by about five years of time. The creator I'm talking about is Peter's illustrative father known Steve Ditko Today ay he turns eighty six years young. He and Stan also made Doctor Strange a big hit after the strong strands of webbing success of the other half of Peter Parker's very active life seen here in these few panels   

of the comic book put out by Marvel comics titled "THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN" He doesn't care about fame or riches he just wants fans to know his body of work that started with this

first page of Mister Parker's life from a final comic titled  AMAZING FANTASY # 15, dated August nineteen sixty two as it's cover release was actually released in the following month of September. It had three other comic stories in it as well as our boy hood hero known as Mr.Parker, those stories were "THE BELL RINGER","THE MAN IN THE MUMMY CASE", and finally there was "THE MARTINS ARE AMONG US". Of course way back then to see sale records of any comic was at least a good eight months or nine at most, so when the final tally for AMAZING FANTASY # 15 was collected as a whole wasn't till early February of the following year of nineteen sixty three, when the owner of Marvel saw the sale figures Martin Goodman was his name ordered the creative team whom put out that book nine months ago to make it a regular monthly book. Dikto's actual time on the title was from February nineteen sixty three to July of nineteen sixty six by the covers numbering, but long before that he and Lee happen to of had a falling out over the direction of which way the stories should flow for the series run, so Steve till this day hasn't forgiven Stanly Martian Lee       ,in fact if you look at this illustration of how Steve felt might give some insight at least in a very tiny way of why he started to not appreciate Stan as a coworker in the field of the comic industry, just take a gander at the first word balloon if you don't believe me.... Still even if Ditko wants to hold a grudge that's his choice! Like it is my choice to choose what I Matt like to put down in words on my site. Steve Ditko is a good hearten man I'm sure but his way of enjoying work for the sake of being a creative artist may have been lost a long time ago. So in wanting to wish Mister Ditko a Happy Birthday is very much approved by me because he needs to know he's thought of on this very special day. Thank You Mister Ditko for breathing a breathe of inked 

 

life into one of the most beloved comic book superheroes of our time, and your NOT at fault for how he is currently being received by comic fans around the world right now, but the first name of your last villain "JOE" is to me at any rate. Again best wishes to you, on your date of birth. 

Happy 86th Birthday young man  

    

Why Change is very........

Hello All,

 You know with this being the start of the second to last month of two thousand thirteen has really come so fast, and just getting ol scare fest day outta the way you'll think there's nothing worth yacking about? but oh there always is something...... something like going an seeing a new movie of a Booook  that predicted such things that are so much readily available in just the last decade of sorts. I'm of course, not talking about blogging as I am doing right now. What I'm referring to is the internet itself, sure no one can't deny after watching one of the earliest Transformers cartoon series that any functioning machine interfacing with another through phone lines isn't cool huh. Shortly before or right around that very same time a Mormon science fiction writer whom I have used in my still unfinished original piece called "CLONE OF ME" named Orson Scott Card had first ideas people interacting through a computer in his novel titled "ENDER'S GAME". Last night after Cannon and his older sister Heidi were done with candy hoping for All Hallow's Eve, we went to go see it over at Fairchild theaters in Pasco before it opened today. The movie was a bit off of holding everything of what the author of any piece written work had detail for, as you know any movie made from pen to paper is mostly changed in some fashion or other if you will, with the very exception of "THE LORD OF THE RINGS" very nailed down making of as with the other two parts of "THE HOBBIT" still to be forth coming. Ender's Game the movie for me was really cool and of the three of us who saw it only Kathie my sister in law and I had read the actual novel itself their are four other books that follow the adventures of Andrew "Ender" Wiggins whom is a child whom is programed to be a general of leading young children into intergalactic warfare to save the whole planet earth from an alien race that had once tried to wipe out humanity. The young actor who plays the title role is exactly how I saw the very character in my own head when I read the book back in the late 1990's. I would give this movie an over all of four and half bags of popcorn for it's rating. Also I think it is only fair for "ENDER'S fans should know that Card went and wrote the Ultimate IRON MAN series in two thousand and four  for Marvel comics and in the deal he got the company to do a graphic adaptation of his most acclimated novel "ENDER'S GAME" later that very same year or maybe it was the next one I'm not really sure of, but I do know where I can get a copy of the whole trade for sure if I may want it. Now on to other means of today's title of the post of the first of the month, yes if you know this very site well you are without no doubt never spooked enough after the month of  BLOOD STAINED WALLS or maybe even hearing SCREAMING SOULS VOICES FROM GRAVESTONES that All must be left to dust at the flip of a magic hat? Here is what I had for that aforementioned month of creepiness as the plate here at 

"Tomb of MATT" Hey maybe I'll start that next year coming up with catchy yet bogging names for every October. I did happen to come up with a cool surprise to add to the mix for the month of scares from now whence on? but before I share this little part of sneakiness I have reveal what I had for most the month of shocking Gravers  as my desktop which was these two dead friends having fun in the one place 

that they can't leave! So I know you all wanna know what my final treat from the month of October,2013 is ? It is my person  I finally did decide on being yesterday during  my greatest day of the whole year? (Really) it is at least one of them for sure and can you guess one finally time if you can find a day ever that I don't give you a twister of a pun for if you put all of my hints of last month together you can know I was this guy seen here 
 









  
of Batman's rouge of foes.                    

Being my other self today couldn't be anymore worth the......

Happy Halloween to all Goblins & Ghouls,
   Anyone who is aware of this blog in anyway of finding it search wise on the net must know without a doubt that this is my day or rather night that I love outside of the real next holiday comes along on a string. I know that I go into grand detail about all of life in some form or other throughout this blog, but that is because no matter what everyday matters! Still I know a few days ago I threw out hints as to what I was gonna be this year, yet I know in truth Nobody would have guessed from 

my again growing out my beard like I did last year. I was gonna be the Mad Hatter this year in fact I had it cemented in my brain with the idea of on one cheek a tea kettle with a whisk of smoke coming out of it and on the other side I would have had a tea cup on a saucer plate. That was all summer and all of last month, but then something just had to happen to shake thing idea to a rotten joke if you'll believe it? I know everyone wants to know what the spoils were right?, well it turns out every costume that was out for the Mad Hatter was to frightening to be what I wanted, So instead I went with this 

as my fun suit. Since this year Candy night was on Thursday I knew I 'd have to get my beard design rather earlier than later, so last Saturday I went after my Men Breakfast on a trip over the city of Pasco. Here was what the young lady did

A "DARK KNIGHT" type of Batman symbol on my main beard's body, then on the right was a reversed question mark while on left side was a proper one so who in the heck are the conundrums giving you an answer of? Why if you said The Riddler  
 











of Batman fame you'd be righter than how many times the other foe in the color scheme of Purple and Green that also throws "Bats" 

insane puns before he does his crime. Better known as The Joker! Now as you can all see I went and made a combination of the two. When I went looking for the look of the Riddler costume  I found that I had the choice of what I ended up with but, I also could have gone with a whole bodysuit like I wouldn't have tried that over any Halloween, anytime soon. Still the other choice I was in for was a full Riddler look of the actor who played him the most from  the sixty series of Batman,

 named Frank Gorshin. The suit has a huge price tag of one hundred sixteen dollars, so if the one I got was fifty nine dollar amount do you think I made the right choice? Today with out a doubt I super enjoyed being the bad guy in spades..... and my first run in was with a Spider-Girl known 
 










 
as Mayday Parker(?), then there was this second cool setup of Matt's Riddler run in with a young Bruce Wayne and his grandma.

I then ran into a young boy that is decked out as the first superhero comic book hero ever from the late nineteen thirties. Known better as Superman!
 











I feel since he was a great powerhouse in the look that he deserves a second pow wow with yours truly and here 
is that one. One of the things that I had heard from my boss that her former front end supervisor was getting her daughter ready for Halloween day and was thinking what was Matt the courtesy clerk, for this year. At the time I got my boss to promise to this year getting a photo with the Matt Riddler by the day's end. Before that through I was seeing all types of other adults dressed up as well as myself so I really and truly didn't feel out of place or silly at all and before long I just had a feeling some more kids were gonna be coming around as superheroes and that among other things is why I always bring my digital camera along on this day, because if you look over by the dairy department of our store you can see that here again

 , I am being beaten up by a couple of competitor comic company mascots known as little Cap and little Shellhead. Still my day wasn't over by a stretch of time for my good friend June came by to pose with me because that's our thing 

since last year's Buzz thing. More on that in a moment or so, I just so happen to find out that I was not the only one with the White face idea either for here is my coworker Jackie Ellis in her new one day look of stitches 
 
with me as well. Finally from the store front how many of you all remember when I went and did that crazy look of the Toy Story character other than Woody the cowboy. I am sure no one did when I kept posting that image of myself and the unknown young woman dressed up in the guise of the aforementioned first superhero of comics. Well I just thought before I went and gave out my final pair of treats this year that I would pullout one more set of photos that still deserve to be in contention for best ever runner up of the whole year. That being said here are my favorite Detective Comics form of Super Girl:          

 

Without a inch of her Super Krypton strength I have got to admit that the Super Girl kiddo punching me is my second top favorite of this year's Spooky but still non scary Halloween pics this year. Before I even dare tell you which one I do think in my heart of hearts is number one I have tell you that after work I went over to my brother Micheal's house and handed out candy here I am 

thinking that those Pumpkins won't be talking back to me 

then of course on the way over to his house Michael wanted to know if I was up for a per release of the movie opening tomorrow called Ender's Game (more on that later.......)  I did however saw a young girl that had the Mad Hatter idea getting some candy loot but of course she didn't design her face with teapots or tea cups on a saucer nor was she all out green like I was thinking of she was Red in her costume choice which I thought was pretty neat. Before Michael and Kathie and I went to go see E.G. I got a couple great pics of our own yearly thing we do every Ol Hallows Eve  

 

and yes for some oddball reason I did decide put up two oh I wonder why?        

           Again I hope every kid enjoys getting bag loads of candy, as to the one pick of the Halloween photos this year that's number one is myself and the Spider-Girl and it's really because I and her dad let her choose if she wanted the photo taken. 

 Have a Happy Halloween, my friend.......

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? 

Maybe a clue or maybe not a clue?

Hello Tricksters of the night,
  I know I said I wouldn't give out any true clues about what's coming up next Thursday better known as All Hallows Eve. More commonly known today as Halloween, of what I'm doing of course. Nor did I say I won't toss out hints as to what I'll be that night of being anyone you wish to be? Believe me I have been trying to really keep it under warps...... Even though I do wanna surprise the lot of you again I think it would be best to say by looking at these Green clad folks seen here 

could be somewhat of a bit of help who really knows for sure? The one thing I can say about the character I will be planing to be is a lot like me in a way by this I mean he gives out puzzles in the form of puns. Oh and he is in this guy's rouge 

of challenges to beat whenever it is that they shall meet!    

Just another strange indy movie...

Hello movie thriller seekers,
Hey look I know I was just talking about a super cool monster flick just yesterday from when I rented three DVDs from good ol Blockbuster video store that is near me. Still there was one that just grabbed me even through the title was very forwardly stupid, it was called NAZIS AT THE CENTER OF THE EARTH

, and like every other independent film I've talk about here this one has a cool high point in this it's a really wacky take on Adolf Hitler, in this he turns out to be brought back from the dead as a Transformer of sorts 

,say what? This was made by the same production company that made Abraham Lincoln vs Zombies that I wrote about when I was watching the Johnny Depp make of "Dark Shadows"  late last year, the production company's name is The Asylum. They make mostly movies that would be considered "Mostly Pinocchio strung work" but are good for a great time if nothing right now that's out strikes a punch for a movie goer.  In the story of Nazi at the center of the earth it starts out with the last few weeks before the end of World War II and these Germans have been trying to find a way to bring life back to their leader, Hitler with a machine they made by their war expert but are found out by the world and are killed before learning how to use the very machine. Jump to present day: After two scientists go missing in the Antarctic the rest of the five of the team travel to where those to vanished only to find themselves sucked into a really bad cater that has a lit wall behind them and are forced to call the light water in the script. One of the very geneticists scienitit has been waiting for this moment to rejoin his long forgotten project to bring the very control Hitler had when he crafted the Third Reich back during his rule of the country known as Germany. Now thorough those remaining Nazi soldiers that assumed to of died in the Arctic are now Zombies trying to use modern means of being the great race they claimed to be, with a doctor by the name of Joeef Mengele who is played by multiple actors. These Nazis do get what the want which is a reborn Hitler and a spaceship? to conquer the whole earth...only to have it all taken away in two seconds. Yes this film isn't a grand masterpiece as I said earlier at the start of this, but it does have it's small amount of a one room feel no matter what by it's end. An as for it being a Halloween winner let me say it's more of a bad choice when I wanted to be scarred more than bored to Z-land, in fact I wished I would've gone with my choice of the remake of "PROM NIGHT" instead. Still I think I can survive.....till the real night of candy fun that is!
