Here He Comes to Save the Day!

For my money, the best version of Mighty Mouse was the 1980s Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures series. It lasted only two seasons, but it was a hoot, and one of the many reasons I got myself out of bed on Saturday mornings as a kid. The intro alone made the show worth watching and is easily one of my all-time favorite cartoon openings.

On January 5, 2010, the complete series of Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures hits stores. This 3 disc set is remastered and even has some of the original theatrical Mighty Mouse shorts. Personally, I'm beyond stoked for this DVD release and just may pre-order my copy.

"Mighty Mouse" what long lost memories. I thought those were 90s seasons

I couldn't let it escape my notice that the show is "made by Ralph Bakshi", the creator of the two grotesque seasons of the first Spider-Man animated series

I prefer Mouse voice in the earlier series, it was much better, if you saw "The Incredible Shrinking Hulk" from the 1982 animated Hulk series you'll hear "Mini Bruce" having the same voice as mouse in the early series

What's funny is; why not all the episodes gathered in one single DVD? Or in a single "Blu Ray Disk"?

You mean the Spider-Man series from the '90s?

Bakshi didn't work on the 90s series, he only worked on the 60s animated Spider-Man series, terrible music (some is very good) & terrible green skinned villains, not to mention the atmosphere and sky is like a vomit, Spider-Man never fought any of his villains except Mysterio, Vulture, Kingpin & Rhino

Vulture & Rhino episodes are rehashes of their episodes from the first season of that show by "Grantray & Lawrence", Mysterio & Kingpin had their episodes built on comic stories

The episodes you mean? No, I meant to gather all "Mighty Mouse" episodes in 1 DVD, or one "Blu Ray" disk

By the way; nice new design

Ohhhh the one from the '60s is the one you meant. Yeah, it did use a lot of stock footage.

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.

Justice League: Doom

Watching DVDs on the computer is nice but sometimes it's better to watch them on TV. So after some thinking, I decided to get myself a new DVD player. This one is by Sony and it only set me back $40. Why didn't I get a Blu-Ray player? Because I'm not 100% sold on them. Besides, I hear the PS3 is a good Blu-Ray player as opposed to the PS2's DVD playback functionality, which was crap. When I get a PS3, I'll have Blu-Ray, so I can wait. And yet, when I bought my new DVD player, I picked up my first Blu-Ray movie. Well it came with Blu-Ray and DVD. Justice League: Doom is the latest DC Universe animated film. How prepared is Batman? Prepared to take down his own teammates, if it becomes necessary. Based off the Justice League of America: Tower of Babel story written by Mark Waid, JL: Doom explores Batman's paranoid nature. Batman has taken measures to stop each member of the Justice League should they ever go rouge or sub-come to mind control from ...
