Heroic Archetypes Ascendent – American Eagle

I have become quite a fan of Alex Macris’ Ascendant Star Spangled SquadronIf you aren’t familiar with it, then smash the link above and become familiar with it. This webtoon is actually doing what up to now, I didn’t anybody would be doing. Creating new superheroes based on the heroic archetypes I’ve been writing about on this blog. Before I go any further let me make clear that Alex Marcris never read any of my articles on this subject before my...

The 21st Century of Gerry and Sylvia Anderson (Part 1)

“Stand-by for Action!” A middle-aged voice barks out of the Magnavox TV’s monaural speaker in my family’s living room at 6:30 am.The Little Dark Herald is rocking back and on the floor in front of the TV, totally standing by for action. He is not disappointed. The ocean explodes for no reason and bongo drums start thundering away while a trumpet blasts out a challenge. Over the next minute and twenty seconds, a submarine launches out of an underwater base, buildings slide into an...

The Disney Civil War

How long before Disney World gets rid of gendered restrooms?I now live in a world where that is a perfectly legitimate question. And you will note that I asked, ‘how long,’ not ‘if.’ I think it really is just a matter of time. Disney parks are now a place where Sir, Mam, Boy, and Girl are now offensive terms. How long can the people that banished these crimespeak words as unbearably regressive, be able to tolerate the existence of restrooms explicitly marked...

Moonknight – First Impressions

I’ve tried to start a review for Marvel’s MoonKnight four times now and I can’t get anything down on paper. I have standards as a pop culture reporter. They aren’t high standards but at least I have them. One of them being that regardless of whether or not I detest the creator, I will judge the creation on its own merit. And I can’t seem to do that tonight. And it’s all because of Disney.What does the Disney brand mean to you? More importantly, what...

The Groomiest Place on Earth

PedoMouse has dropped the mask completely. They can’t really control themselves anymore. They’ve stopped trying and have announced that Disney is now officially pro-grooming. Disney has publicly declared that it is going to be pushing to have Florida’s anti-grooming law repealed. And it doesn’t end there.Why take the word of a far-right looney like me when you can hear what Disney executives have in mind for your children out of their own mouths.The following are leaks from the Reimagine Tomorrow meetings that Disney just...

Blogs and Ends: The Slow News Day Edition

Turns out that Jada Pinkett probably isn't gay. Jada Pinkett has dragged her husband on to her podcast and made him admit that he doesn't satisfy her in bed. And that he has to agree to letting her cuck him as publically as possible.In short Will has to be fine with it if you screw his wife but not if you screw WITH his wife. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dltIicxDi0 Since I'm tired of the subject of Jada Pinkett and am looking for any tangential...

Was The Slap Fake?

One way or another, yes.I resent having to have an opinion about this sissy fight. I don’t like anyone involved but since the entire internet has blown up over it I can’t ignore it.Here’s the clip you’ve probably seen repeatedly by now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKl9xPROmaE The Oscars were tracking in its usual basement-dwelling numbers when the slap heard around the world happened. The viewership doubled almost immediately. It’s the first time in years that the general public has taken a genuine interest in the Academy Awards. From the...

Final Friday Night Open Thread

Or at least it's going to be the last for a couple of months.Your beloved Dark Herald has broken the internet.Or at least the server.From Vox Popoli:"No, it’s not being deplatformed or anything like that. The problem is a technical one, as too much traffic over too much time at the arkhavencomics-dot-com site has overwhelmed the WordPress database and the site has bogged down to the point that it is interfering with the necessary operations of the Library store it...
