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.
Veio gives our listeners a rock/metal single to check out with “Structures”. Veio has the metal sound down and I really enjoyed listening to this single. The lyrics where nice and clear and when the chorus hit it wasn’t to over the top, it was right were it needed to be. The music video is put together nicely, but I wish they would have done more of a story video, but that’s just my taste for music videos. Here’s Veio’s music video for “Structures” through their YouTube channel – Richard:
The ComicPop Crew jumps back and forth between Julia Camara and Russ Emanuel who are in two different places but in one. Could this be a reflection of their award winning feature film Occupants where the characters are sharing the same place parallel to one another. Join us as we have fun visiting with the writer, Julia, and the director, Russ, about Occupants.

Uruguay is sharing with our listeners their debut music video for “Sabrina Segment”. This single has a very soulful feel to it and with the drumbeat, along with the images of the music video, feels like a heart beat. There is no harshness to the single, but you feel a desperation within “Sabrina Segment”. The single and video deals with the harshness of life and how it can be very down trodden, but you can still find someone to help make it go a little easier. When you get to the end of the video you will understand what I mean, because I want to leave that for you to interpret on your own, because you could get a different message from it, which is all good. Here’s Uruguay’s music video for “Sabrina Segment” from their YouTube channel – Richard:

Bianca Rose is sharing with the ComicPop listeners her single “Because of Love”, that features Cellist Ayanna Witter-Johnson. “Because of Love” is a romantic ballad that steers you through love and when the Cello comes in it brings the single to a new height. I would love to just have Bianca and Ayanna do an acoustic version of this song with just the two women and that is it, I think it would be beautiful. The music video is directed with a classic clean look from the director. Here’s Bianca Rose’s music video for “Because of Love” featuring Ayanna Witter-Johnson through Bianca’s YouTube channel – Richard:
All the Sword Art Onine fans will want to start visiting their local theaters. Why? Well Sword Art Onine: The Movie – Ordinal Scale will be getting a limited release to U.S. theaters on March 9.

They Call Him Zone is sharing with us his music video for the single “Just Fall’. The single is from his upcoming Crow Swan Wolf album that is scheduled to release on February 20. “Just Fall” is an electro/rock/pop single, with the music video following suit in style. The rhythms of the single and the voice and way They Call Him Zone sang reminded me a lot of Billy Idol’s music. So if you are a fan of Idol this will be right up your alley. Here’s They Call Him Zone’s music video for “Just Fall” through his YouTube channel – Richard:
As most of our friends know Starbase Studios has recently relocated. They are no longer in Oklahoma, but in Arkansas. Over the holidays they moved the sets and have begun re-building them at their new home. When the time comes and they are ready to schedule new fan film productions we will post to let everyone know. Until then the group of The Federation Files YouTube channel has released a time-lapse video of them reconstructing the bridge. Check it out these are two hard working gentlemen and I’m sure the productions of Valiant, Melbourne, Republic, and many others Star Trek fan film productions are glad to see the new studio taking shape:
