AP Productions: The Commission #13

The Conglomerate part 1 The Ice Box metahuman prison rested within a snowy mountain, far from civilization. Its top floor was exposed to the elements. The remaining five levels were in descending order underground. If any of the super-powered criminals inside managed to escape five levels of heavily armed guards, they would meet many challenges. They would encounter drones as well. Surviving the frozen terrain … Continue reading AP Productions: The Commission #13

Brothers’ Bond: A Pokemon Story, Chapter 19

Chapter 19 Chispa waited in silence on the other side of the sitrus bush. She stretched out her front paws and lowered her head and shoulders to the ground as she surveyed her prey, who was helplessly unaware of where she had vanished to. The lowering of her front end was countered by the raising of her hindquarters and tail, both of which wiggled with … Continue reading Brothers’ Bond: A Pokemon Story, Chapter 19

Ranking The Franchise: MCU Phase Three

After reviewing the first two phases of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, you almost get the feeling someone behind the scenes messed up when it came to Phase Three. Phase One and Phase Two, as you may recall from my recent reviews of them, were each six movies long. So when we dive into Phase Three, we find out that it is… almost twice as big?! … Continue reading Ranking The Franchise: MCU Phase Three

AP Productions: Winghaven #40

A History Lesson part 5 (finale) Alysa sat on the couch and stared at the TV but wasn’t watching anything in particular. Delroy entered the living room and sighed when he noticed his daughter’s state. “Wanna talk about it?,” he asked as he took a seat. “I never did the research,” Alysa said softly after turning off the television, “I just went off what people … Continue reading AP Productions: Winghaven #40

Brothers’ Bond: A Pokemon Story, Chapter 18

Chapter 18 Floaroma Town was barely an outskirt of a suburb, a small stopover village nestled in the woods at the bottom of Mount Coronet. In comparison, Celestic Town may well have been a bustling center of trade. But where Celestic was surrounded by perpetual mountain haze, looming pine trees, and a jagged, knife-like terrain that combined to cause Sam to fear for his life … Continue reading Brothers’ Bond: A Pokemon Story, Chapter 18

Above The Knee Review

Every so often, you find a movie that doesn’t quite belong on the streaming service on which you find it. To that end, my wife and I just watched the 1999 film Jawbreaker… on Shudder. The same Shudder that specializes in horror offerings. And it was showing the black comedy film Jawbreaker. It didn’t make loads of sense, but that’s where we found it. Every … Continue reading Above The Knee Review

Ranking The Franchise: MCU Phase Two

With Phase One in the rear view mirror for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, success was already well in hand for the burgeoning juggernaut. After a stellar start in Iron Man, they may have had a few mid-level follow-ups, but The Avengers proved there was a voracious desire to see more from Marvel. So how would they fare with their next several offerings? It was time … Continue reading Ranking The Franchise: MCU Phase Two

A History Lesson part 4 King Paul’s temple had no priestess, which was rare but not unheard of, particularly at that time and place. He would often write a priestess in Atlanta who was Iconoclast-adjacent. Queen Magdalene had been trained as a priestess when she was young, but there were no direct followers where she lived and had been hoping to start a temple. Paul … Continue reading AP Productions: Winghaven #39

Brothers’ Bond: A Pokemon Story, Chapter 17

Chapter 17 Sam, for as displeased as he was to have been back on the sea once again, was at least happy he’d made it through the ferry ride to Canalave without Barry’s Monferno tossing anybody overboard. The ferry had a prominently posted notice asking riders to keep their pokemon contained (“for their own safety and the safety of the rest of our guests”, the … Continue reading Brothers’ Bond: A Pokemon Story, Chapter 17

Ranking The Franchise: MCU Phase One

I’m back on my franchise ranking horse! I do love taking a look back at an entire movie franchise I have watched every entry of and deciding how it goes from best to worst. It’s a great conversational piece, too, for the comments section. How would YOU rank them, et cetera, et cetera. One of the franchises I’ve had a strong desire to do for … Continue reading Ranking The Franchise: MCU Phase One
