“After careful consideration, I have decided not to endorse your park.” If Dr. Ian Malcolm was the rock star in the original Jurassic Park film, Dr. Alan Grant was the record producer that kept a level head when the band (or, in this case, the park) lost its way. Dr. Grant was always aware ofContinue reading “Jurassic Park Amber Collection: Dr. Alan Grant (2021)”

McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Gold Label Owlman
“As long as there’s a Batman…..there will be an Owlman. His true dark reflection.” While I’ve often listed Black Manta as one of the most wicked villains in the DC Universe, Owlman, Thomas Wayne, Jr., might be one of the few villains to match him. Owlman is Batman of Earth 3 (at least in thisContinue reading “McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Gold Label Owlman”
McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Black Manta
“I’m going to kill Aquaman and destroy everything he holds dear.” One of the most vicious villains in all of DC Comics in my opinion, Black Manta came to life in the first Aquaman film and makes his triumphant return in Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom. Portrayed by Yahya Abdul-Mateen II in both films, MantaContinue reading “McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Black Manta”

“We can’t leave our children in a world without hope.” While I still haven’t seen Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom, I’ve been enamored with the figures ever since they started hitting pegs.

Dungeons & Dragons Cartoon Classics: Bobby The Barbarian And Uni
“Try picking on somebody my size!” Bobby was the youngest adventurer in the group of kids in the classic cartoon, Dungeons & Dragons. He was also the closest in age to me at the time.

Dungeons & Dragons Cartoon Classics: Presto The Magician
“My hocus-pocus is out of focus!” If anyone on the classic Dungeons & Dragons cartoon was the perfect embodiment of low self-esteem, high intelligence, and a heaping dose of awkwardness, it was Presto the Magician. Presto was a typical 1980s nerd and most viewers of the cartoon likely identified with him. I did somewhat, butContinue reading “Dungeons & Dragons Cartoon Classics: Presto The Magician”
Dungeons & Dragons Cartoon Classics: Eric The Cavalier
“You’re crazy!” Always ready with a sarcastic suggestion or a cowardly comment, Eric The Cavalier was one of the funniest characters on the classic Dungeons & Dragons cartoon.

Despite his somewhatContinue reading “Dungeons & Dragons Cartoon Classics: Eric The Cavalier”
Dungeons & Dragons Cartoon Classics: Sheila The Thief
“We’re trapped in another world!” Being a kid in rural Louisiana with hardly any friends to play with in the 1980s meant that my only exposure to Dungeons & Dragons was the classic cartoon that ran for three season from 1983 to 1985. I loved the series. I didn’t even know at the time thatContinue reading “Dungeons & Dragons Cartoon Classics: Sheila The Thief”
