InVINCEable

Recommended Posts

I'm a huge DC fan, or at least I used to be pre-New 52. DC sure do know how to ruin a good thing.

Thanks for the post, I'll check this out when I get home :D

I think there's also a fan made wonder woman movie around, I saw a trailer a few months back and it looked pretty good.

I grew up reading the old DC and Marvel comics in the 60's, and then later comics like Heavy Metal, Zap, Young Lust, Mr Zippy etc in the 70's (not superheroes, but I was, and still am, a big Robert Crumb fan).

I also grew up with Astro Boy, Prince Planet, Gigantor (Tetsujin 28), Stingray, Supercar, Thunderbirds etc on the TV as well as the original Superman and Batman TV series. Back then there was a nice innocence to them which is lacking these days, but I have to admit I do like the grittiness of Christopher Nolan's Batman... Tim Burton's was fun, but it lacked the campy quality of the Adam West character and had none of the hard edge that Nolan brings.

Ultraman was another superhero I came to enjoy a lot after many trips to Japan. Now I just need to get over there again to see the ginormous statues of Gundam (in Tokyo?) and Tetsujin 28 (Gigantor) in Kobe (or is it Kyoto?).

As a young man I had a soft spot for Wonder Woman!

Anyone seen the new Thor Movie?

Watch it last night. It was better than the first one but I thought the first half hour was pretty slow.

Loki really does save that movie, he's probably the best character in the current marvel cinematic universe.

Still staggered that Green Lantern cops huge amounts of crap considering how bad the first Thor movie was.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full
