Hey party people! How’s everyone doing in pandemic land? So far so good over here. I thought I’d write something up to check in with everyone. As you may have noticed, I don’t have a new video up! Well a long string of bad luck just keeps rolling.
Just when I was ready to start cutting my next video (about Wonder Woman), my computer started to melt down. Took me about a week to get that straighten out (with the help of a new graphic card). Once that was done, my toddler gave me his cold from preschool. That knocked me out for a week (have you started playing your little violent for me, because my story is so sad). As I’m getting over that, pandemic time! Preschool is closed, so I have to watch him and his 11 month old brother 24/7 now. As I like to say: I barely got time to scratch my nutz let alone do anything else!
Heck, I even wrote up an article for Aintitcool.com about Dan Didio leaving DC Comics- but with a dead computer and all… well it will probably never see the light of day now. Speaking of which, the real question is why now? We all know he has made some questionable decisions at DC for a loooong time. But he always managed to land on his feet, in regards to sales. Soooooo, what changed? The rumor is that he created a hostile work in environment, as editors have been quitting as of late. But that doesn’t make much sense to me. He’s been there so long, and the environment just got hostile now!? As I wish no one to ever lose a job, we all know how much that sucks, I wish him well. But I also look forward to what direct DC goes in now, that he’s gone.
Ok that’s enough- too much domestic stuff going on here! I certainly hope you are all safe and healthy! And hopefully as this pandemic blows over you, and everyone you know, will remain that way! Take care friend!

Shazam Lightning… Does it hur...
Hey party people. I'll be honesty with ya. Sometimes it takes a loooong time to finish one of these video ones. So I thought I'd do myself a favor by making some shorter ones. So ta-da, under six minutes! Next month's video will be too, as I tackle some fun comicbook trivia. This month I talk ...

FACT: Wonder Woman Never Wore a Ski....
So this just a fun short one talking about Wonder Woman wardrobe. To steal a joke from Svengoolie: “You'd like to see more of Wonder Woman on TV? So would I, but that's as small as the censor's will allow her costume to be.” But seriously, this was something I found / figured out a long while...
- Top 10 DC Forgotten Minority Heroes
Hey Party People,
With my new video I tackle a subject near and dear to us superhero fans: Under used characters! We all have fan characters, who are not included the main pantheon of a publisher's superheroes. So we lie and wait for the time when they decide to use them again- and...
- What the Hell Happened to: WONDER WOMAN!?
Hey party people, welcome to my latest video! For this one I dive deep into Wonder Woman (stop it). As DC Comics has proven over the past 70 years that they have no idea what to do with her. I mean, when she came out, she was selling like three comics (Sensation,...
- Which Superheroes are The Most…
Hey party people, here is my latest video, The Most- as in which superhero is the most- pick a category. I'm sure you know how much us superhero fans enjoy arguing about superheroes. Who's the strongest, who's the fastest, etc. Well this (possible) series will help answer those questions (inspire heated debate,...
- DC’s Top Ten from the 1980’s
Wowie, wow, wow, wow! Creating videos is hard work! This one took longer than I hoped, and it was aided by the fact that I started to do a little bit more writing for Anititcool.com. You can swing by there and read some of my, “This Week in Comics” articles. That,...

- Puzzle Time: Masked Man
Hey Party People,
I thought I'd give Puzzle Time another shot. Based on the views last time, not a big fav! But we're still a growing channel, so I'll be giving it a few more tries. This time the puzzle is Masked Man- as in can you guess who the DC character (hero...
- Diversity Part 2: How to!
Hey Party People,
I'm back with part two of my look at diversity in superhero comics! As I showed in part 1, superhero comics still suffer from a lack of diversity. In case you missed it, you can check it out here:

So now the question is, what can we- or rather publishers do about...
- Is Diversity in Comicbooks Really Needed?
Hey Party people,
Welcome to another year of Super-hero Pow! I can't tell you how much I wanted to get this video out before February- but didn't happen. My goal is to get one video out a month, and I'm behind already. If you'd like to help, encouragement will do it! I'm...

- What was George Lucas Thinking
So just what the hell was George Lucas thinking!? No, not when he sold out to Disney- because we all know he wasn't! But what was he thinking about, when it came to the final Star Wars sequel trilogy. What was the actual story meant to be? Well that's what I...

- Superfriends Season 1: Why it’s Great!
Hey Party People,
Seems you all enjoy the Superfriends as much as I do, so I thought I'd make another video of them! At the same time, I came up with a new concept for videos: Why it's Great! Where I will list a few reasons why something is great. Preferably something not...

Hey party people, in a mad dash to get this video up before the Halloween. So I don't have too much to say about it other than, I love classic monster movies- ever since my youth of watching the Son of Svengoolie in Chicago. Funny to think that Chicago gave the USA, Oprah...
- Marvel’s Top Ten from 1980
Hey party people, confession time, I'm more of a DC fan than a Marvel fan. So putting this list together was kinda tough. I hit up a lot of Marvel fans for notes- but they were all over the place! Marvel was such a powerhouse in the 1980's, basically all their books...
