    Ninja Turtles - Cowabunga!

    With any luck, Limited Run Games will be able to put out a physical release after a year or so like they did with the Castlevania and Doom collections. I won't even mind the double dipping for this! (Well, I mean, yes I will, but I'll do it)

    Marvel Toy Thread

    My only issue with that scenario--as someone who is also seeing a ton of Americas at every Target--is that I'm not also seeing the odd Astral Doctor Strange here and there. Who's snapping up all the Astral Stranges just for the sake of having an Astral Strange, as opposed to building the BAF?

    The Book of Boba Fett

    Couldn't resist the Justified reference, I'd imagine.

    The Book of Boba Fett

    I was this close to making a Bob Marley joke, but then I remembered Cobb was a marshal and not a sheriff, so screw it.

    The Book of Boba Fett

    That's the crux of the show's problem, right there. With the best will in the world, I can allow that there is some connective tissue between Boba losing his Tusken family to criminals, and him wanting to take over as a kinder, gentler Kingpin who avoids unnecessary conflict. But I feel like...

    Ninja Turtles - Cowabunga!

    2 minutes in, he compares the reaction to the Bay Turtles movies and the early Sonic trailer, and says "people didn't used to complain as much back then". And I just know the more he keeps talking, the older I'm going to feel.

    It works out well for team waves; they can stick a Wolverine variant into any wave they want without interfering with the BAF. Doesn't work out so well for Spider-Man waves. You'll get a Spidey without a BAF piece each time, but you'll also get two more that do have them.

    The Book of Boba Fett

    Don't get me started on how ridiculous that was. -Boss Pyke brags that he dealt Boba Fett this serious emotional blow -Bane, who knows how dangerous Boba can be when he takes things personally, asks if Boba is aware of this -Boss Pyke says no, we blamed it on someone else, and Bane seems...

    The Book of Boba Fett

    Maybe he was too busy thinking, "Y'know, killing him with that Tusken stick would've been way more symbolic and cool if he'd had ANYTHING TO DO with the Tuskens' death."

    The Book of Boba Fett

    The series had its moments, but this finale really hammered home the problems in the writing. Spent the entire time yelling at characters: "What the hell is your plan??? What are your goals???"

    The Book of Boba Fett

    I was joking with my wife while we were watching. As Ahsoka leaves, Luke's calling after her, "Oh, you're leaving? Oh, okay. Hey, did you know my mom? Could you...could you tell me her name real quick?"

    IDW to Lose the Transformers License?

    That really would be a shame, if the TMNT series had to end before it's time. As much as I'm liking the current Transformers book, losing it is not the same blow as it would have been had IDW lost the license in the middle of MTMTE. Losing TMNT would be comparable to that.

    Young Justice: Phantoms

    Just watched the first half of the season, and man, that's some uneven stuff. I don't think any of these story arcs needed to be as long as they were, and I also kind of wish they happened at more or less the same time, so that each story could've progressed a little in each episode. Four...

    IDW to Lose the Transformers License?

    And I thought the people who wanted to align the continuity of the DBZ movies and series were the champions of lost causes.

    IDW to Lose the Transformers License?

    Come to think of it, y’know what I would find interesting? A mix of Rescue Bots and the post-Rebirth idea, to make something like that Botcon G2 comic: a generation of TFs built on Earth who consider that their home planet, and don’t have any emotional connection to Cybertron or the war.

    "Vintage Beast Wars" reissue line

    I never go to Walmarts because I have none nearby, but events conspired to bring me to one today, and DAMN. Seeing Optimus and Rattrap on the shelf brought me right back to 1996. I never had nostalgia like that from G1 reissues, since I was too young when those originals were out to be buying...

    IDW to Lose the Transformers License?

    Honestly, this would interest me more than a new iteration of "Optimus and Megatron come to Earth and fight". It'd be like a version of the Headmasters anime that I could actually stand.

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    I'm content to watch nature take its course and let "null ray" become the generic term for the Seeker's identical-looking guns that fire identical-looking beams in every cartoon.

    IDW to Lose the Transformers License?

    If someone asked me right now what I want from a Transformers comic, I honestly wouldn't know what to tell them. "How about a prequel story, leading up to the war?" "We literally JUST had that." "Well how about something set after the war is over?" "That's just gonna make me miss the previous...

    Marvel's Hawkeye on Disney Plus

    Didn't love that finale, honestly. No matter the number of episodes, Marvel always seems to tease out the middle for too long and make the ending seem cramped.
