We are just having fun reviewing and discussing comic books, graphic novels, manga, anime/animation, music and movies that we have recently read, listened to or watched.
We did the spot light on Nick de la Hoyde with his single “By My Side”. We enjoyed the single and now everyone can enjoy his music video for the same single. It is done in black and white style for the most part, which to me gives the video a classic feel to it. If you enjoyed Hoyde’s music you will want to check out his EP Passion that can be found on most digital services. Check out Nick’s music video for “By My Side” through his YouTube channel – Richard:

Desecration by J.F. Penn looks to be an interesting blend of murder mystery and a twinge of supernatural. Check out the trailer from the authors YouTube channel:
An international trailer, of Star Wars: The Force Wakens has been released that contains the above image at the very beginning. A new pic of, one would think, a piece of the once Imperial Army. Whats interesting to me is the shape of the stormtroopers helmets and then the back of a character that has a black cloak on and a white helmet. Kind of an odd combination because from the back it recalls the image of Darth Vader, but then you have the white helmet with that black cloak, interesting choice. Anyway if you want to view the whole trailer it is provided by the CBR Trailers YouTube channel:
With the name Friday on Elm Street I expected a hard rock dark feel to this music. What we get with “Dear Beth” is a light pop rock single. Once I wrapped my heard of preconceived notions to what the band style is, I enjoyed the single. It is a synth heavy single and the lyrics are clear and everything has a catchy rhythm to “Dear Beth”. I don’t know it the style is through the rest of Friday on Elm Street’s music, but with this single my mind kept going back to what the Scooby-Doo cartoons would play within their episodes, just fun lighthearted music. Check out Friday on Elm Street’s lyric video for “Dear Beth” on their YouTube channel and pick up his album that drops on the 12th of this month – Richard:
Loki get center stage in Joanne M. Harris latest novel, The Gospel of Loki. With Marvel bring interest back into the Asgardian legends this one looks interest since it is from Loki’s point of view. Thanks to GollanzBooks YouTube channel for the following trailer:
This is interesting. IDW Publishing is trying something new in the collectible market with the Star Wars license. They are producing blind packs for Star Wars Marvel minicomics, 3-D posters, 3-D glass, and trading cards that are puzzle pieces to form comic covers. All this for $3.99. Sounds good until you look at the break down of what’s in the packet. You have a chance to get one of the six mini comics, a chance to get one of the six 3-D posters, a pair of 3-D glass. Doesn’t sound to bad yet, but then you get to the trading cards. You get a chance of getting 1 of 36 cards. That’s going to be a lot of duplicates to get a full set of the 36 trading cards.
Don’t get me wrong everything looks neat and all and there will be collectors that love this, but for my wallet it’s just beyond my means.
FUNimation has released another S.A.V.E. package for TO Movies Elliptical Orbit/Symbiotic Planet. So if you didn’t pick this up before here is your chance to now. Thanks to FUNimation’s YouTube channel for the following trailer:
