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.
Ciara Renee joins a growing list of actors to be cast in the upcoming CW Spinoff of the Arrow and Flash TV series. Ciara has been cast as Kendra Saunders/Hawkgirl. Her fellow peers are: Brandon Routh as Ray Palmer/The Atom; Caity Lotz as Sara Lance/Black Canary; Dominic Purcell as Heat Wave; Wentworth Miller as Captain Cold; and Victor Garber as Dr. Martin Stein. It’s fun to see the CW making a family of television series from DC Comics.
CAPCOM promoting Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate game with a tour to different venues. From March 28 to August 10 Six Flags Magic Mountain theme park in Los Angeles, California. On the parks Goliath roller coaster the train has been redecoed to be a Gore Magala monster, the park will have additional outside displays (some pictured above), and the park will also have special Monster Hunter merchandise to purchase. Very cool that this is happening in a U.S. park.

Check out Kristen Simmons third book in her Article 5 Series entitled surprisingly Three. Thanks to the TorForge YouTube channel for the following trailer:
Kosha Dillz and the MuseBox are sharing his music video for the single “Been Down”, through Dillz’ YouTube channel. With “Been Down” Dillz has the rhythm, beat, and sound down for his chosen genre. The music video has a bright quality to it, which you don’t usually associate with the Rap genre, but it works. Music is about the artists feelings and experiences and sharing them in the style that they enjoy and this is Dillz’ style. This particular single has a more upbeat rap song, so the beat is really catchy. Most will enjoy the up tempo of the single so check out “Been Down” below – Richard:
Just got in the omnibus for the Trylle Series by Amanda Hocking. Check out the trailer through her YouTube channel:
VYD wants us to fly away to the moon on a magic rocket ride. As they say in their debut single “Rockets”. This single has a nice upbeat feeling with some sensuality mixed in for your pleasure. You can listen to the single over at Surviving the Golden Age’s website here: http://survivingthegoldenage.com/vyd-rockets/Check it out I think you might like it – Richard
All you children of the ’80’s, The Singularity is the band for you. Magnum PR gives us our first posting from their company and it’s a winner for me. Magnum PR and Katie Trimble are sharing The Singularity’s music video “Wetter” through the “A Jude” YouTube channel. The “Wetter” single is a flashback to the 1980’s with an electronic sound. If the rest of their EP, Weta, is anything like this single you will want to check out their music. The music video is a mixture of animation and anime/live action overlays. Again for me I love it because I enjoy animation. The video also has a little bit of a call back to the Rick Astley music video for ‘Never Gonna Give You Up”, dancing with a wall as the background. Check it out and have some fun my ’80’s fans – Richard:
Pinch me. Michelle sent this to me yesterday and I also read about it online. One of my favorite TV shows, the X-Files, is having a summer season it looks like! David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson reunite with Chris Carter for a 6 episode season. Hopefully this will be a spring board for more summer season rather than a full blown season. This would allow fans to have the X-Files and the actors could do other projects as well.
“Janet Jean” comes to us from Tru Fam. The music to this single has a great beat, the urban hip hop style with a middle eastern flare to it. Not sure if that is just for this individual single or if this style is in all of their music, but I enjoyed it…something a little bit different. Sorry about this next bit guys. I’m not a fan of auto-tune. An artists voice can stand on its own no matter who’s it is. You gentlemen have good voices let the spot light be on them. That is just me, others will like it and enjoy the style. Check out “Janet Jean” through SoundCloud – Richard
