Marvel/DC: Happy Hour









You'll have to pardon my slapped attempt together logo as there was no official one and this is all I could come up with.

One of the funniest things I've ever seen on YouTube is Marvel/DC: Happy Hour by ItsJustSomeRandomGuy. This mostly parody series uses action figures from both Marvel and DC comics, throws them in a bar and let's the good times roll. The humor in this series is absolutely hilarious and I like that the creator isn't afraid to touch on the serious side of things. There's all sorts of jabs to the comics, movies, and business practices of comic and movie studios. As far as I'm concerned, this is the best thing that combines the two most successful comic companies. Period. It doesn't get any better than this.

I was amazed at how close to the original those voices came! Don't forget to watch season 2 after you finish the season 1. Stuff is awesome!

I remember Superman being dissapointed of how little movies there are around his comic company characters, and I remember the one with Ironman talking about the comic con and repulsing "Green Goblin"

Composer Shout Out: Yuji Ohno

For my money, one of the best composers in the music business would have to be Yuji Ohno. This guys is mostly known for his work on just about anything that has to do with Lupin III. After the last few weeks, it's hard for me not to think of Ohno's compositions when Lupin comes to mind. (I've been listening to his various albums to get my jazz fix.) Ohno's works are primarily jazz-inspired and even some of his earliest efforts on Lupin music in the '70s is still considered extraordinary. Not only has he covered music for the various Lupin series and movies, he's also done music for all three PS2 Lupin games. The man is also an accomplished musical genius even when he isn't working on music for Lupin. Tokyo City Lights is a jazz masterpiece. If you want to hear some of Ohno's work, just check out this YouTube pag e with various uploads.

R.I.P Mickey Mouse

In case you haven't heard , Wayne Allwine, the voice actor of Mickey Mouse passed away at the age of 62. He had been voice the world's most famous mouse since 1977. The original voice actor for Mickey was Walt Disney himself. Allwine's imitation of Disney's voice was spot on. Most of the the Mickey Mouse cartoons I've seen were voiced by Allwine. 'Tis a sad day in cartoon history. R.I.P, Wayne Allwine.

Spectacular Art of Andie Tong

Andie Tong is the regular artist of the Spectacular Spider-Man's UK comic book. Now I haven't read any of the issues, but I did come across his deviant art page last night, which feature some of the pages from what looks to be a superb comic. I love all the quirky posses Andie draws Spidey in. He also does a terrific job on the webbing and the half-mask. I can take big or small eyes on a Spider-Man mask, but I think Andie gets the right combo. The eyes aren't too big and they aren't too small. Andie also draws a very excellent Green Goblin. It'd be sweet if he could do the art for some of the Spider books in the states. James Offredi does the coloring on Andie's artwork. Needless to say, James does an amazing job, making Andie's already gorgeous art look even better. I know its only artwork and I haven't read any of these issues, but from what I've seen, it looks like the stories in the Spectacular Spider-Man UK book are a heck of a lot more interes...
