Rest And Be Thankful...

A more mundane "PatSat" than I could have had, with events significantly affected by the arrival of the latest comic delivery (reviews later, okay?).

For The Uninitiated... Erik Larsen talks Dave Cockrum... - an excellent overview of a great artist and creator. Mention is made of Ms Marvel #20 - probably the first comic I truly appreciated, and treasure to this day - and apparently Mr Cockrum was a great fan of Star Trek, like Yours Truly.

One day, I'm going to get myself a piece of original Cockrum art. That iconic first page of Ms Marvel #20, or any classic Storm or Phoenix would be the dream, but that would probably require a lottery win, given the popularity of the characters. Still, it's something to aim for.

Oh, and Dave Cockrum shared a birthday with my mother. Spooky.

And Finally... Hmmm, Days Of Thunder on TV, or a PD fave on DVD...

Naaah. No contest. Cherry, Harry and Racquel, here I come.

And So, The Universe Turns...

In Today's Episode... A taste of what's to come...

Also - MMVII is only 29 days away. No, I'm not talking about "The Movie"; I mean a cycle of events that started a long time ago turns full circle in the New Year. It has a significant part to play in Darkhawk Season Five - when an explanation doesn't risk dropping any spoilers, that's when there'll be one.

Meanwhile... Been helping BB with the house, and as a result, a sizeable chunk of a weekend that could have been creative will now be used for recovery. The "Big Project" is well underway, and I'm happy to help it move forward - the place is going to look fabulous in the New Year.
