Fantastic Four v.2 Issue #6

One cbr file | 9.2 Mb | 23 pages
This is the final issue of Jim Lee's run of Fantastic Four. Never had the Fantastic Four looked so amazing. Everyone was expecting that Lee would pencil all 12 issues of the storyline, but then Rob Liefeld had to go crazy and get fired. Lee was stuck having to find other artists to fill in for Liefeld's run of Captain America. Hot Image penciler Brett Booth filled in for Lee on the next two issues of Fantastic Four. In this issue of FF, look for Galactus and the Silver Surfer to make an appearance and watch Doctor Doom do some more evil scheming. Bauer out.

The Games Are Back

Alright. The flash games Downhill Jumps, Deal or No Deal, and Gold Miner are back on the blog today. I also came across a nice looking Super Mario game, while searching for alternate game hosting websites. Only one game is hosted by theweather.tk now and that's Downhill Jumps. None of the other gaming sites that host Downhill Jumps for blogs have a workable version of the game. For some reason theweather.tk games work again. The only thing I can think of is that once I deleted all those dead games from the blog, theweather.tk forgot that we used their bandwidth. Kind of like clearing your web browser cookies. No more messages from their site stating that I had to pay to use extra bandwidth from them. Go figure. This bandwidth problem shouldn't happen again because we're only using one game from their site as opposed to us originally using six. Enjoy the games! Bauer out.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Vol. 1 Issue #5

One cbr file | 6 Mb | 41 pages
The Turtles literally end up on another planet in this issue. And they fight aliens that look like triceratops. I guess that explains what happened to all the dinosaurs on Earth. Great artwork and story as always by Eastman and Laird. Bauer out.

Detective Comics #27 (First Batman)

One cbr file | 4.3 Mb | 13 pages
People asked me about these issues in the past when I originally posted the first 10 issues of Detective Comics on another blog. "Do you have the original Batman issues?" Because Batman didn't make his first appearance in Detective Comics until issue #27. Some of you out there already have this issue, but starting next week I'll be posting issue #28. The issues that I'll be posting only include the Batman stories. So that's why the files will be only 6 to 12 pages long. It wasn't until the late 80s that Detective Comics became entirely focused on Batman adventures. The early stories in Detective Comics are unique in that Batman is portrayed as being a much darker character, resembling that of the modern day Batman. Bill Finger created Batman and wrote most of the early Batman stories, yet was never credited in one issue of Detective Comics. He was basically the Golden Age equivalent of a Stan Lee. While Bob Kane continued to pencil Batman, the character's adventures transformed into campy storylines during the 1950s and didn't really become serious or dark again until the 70s. We can only assume that Batman's gritty early stories vanished once Bill Finger left DC Comics. Okay, let's get this party started with the first story of Batman. Bauer out.

These issues of Batman include #15, 16, 18, 31, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 79, 81, 85, 90, 91, and 93.

Bone - The Great Cow Race TPB

One cbr file | 31 Mb | 142 pages
Fone Bone and his cousins Phoney and Smiley are back for six more issues of the comic book series Bone. Bone is truly a fun and entertaining story. During issues #7-12 we finally get to see the Great Cow Race that Jeff Smith has been leading up to. Will Gran' ma Ben win or will it be the Mystery Cow? Oh yeah, and Fone Bone and Thorn get chased by a bunch of rat creatures. Stupid, stupid rat creatures. Bauer out.

Comic Book Babe of the Month - Emma Frost

Back in the 90s, Wizard magazine had monthly feature titled Hunk & Babe. I'm reinstating that feature here, minus the "Hunk." Emma Frost, what can we say? From being introduced as a villainess and member of the Hellfire Club, to becoming a teacher and leader of Generation X, and finally joining the X-Men, Emma has had a very eventful life so far. Is she a good girl? Is she bad? I'm not sure, but I do know that we can always count on Ms. Frost to wear a skimpy white costume. She seemed to blossum into a hot babe when Whilce Portacio (Wetworks penciler) got his first crack at drawing her in Uncanny X-Men #281. Unfortunately Emma was knocked into a coma during that issue and didn't awaken until a couple years later. Lucky X-Man Banshee got to watch over her. With Emma's telepathic abilities, just imagine the dirty thoughts she could read from your mind when you gape at her picture. Emma, in my opinion, you're a bad, bad girl. I saw this new photo of Emma selling on EBay. Excellent job by the digital artist. For those who are interested, the picture can be found on EBay here. Bauer out.

Wetworks #1

One cbz file | 5.9 Mb | 26 pages
Imagine your skin being made out of flexible, bulletproof armor. That's team Wetworks and they all carry big guns and lots of ammo. It's your typical Image comic filled with action and splash pages. I'm surprised that they drew everyone partially naked in this issue including the Wetworks chick. Um, yeah you might want to check this one out. This is the first of three issues I'll be posting from this series. Bauer out.

Gen 13 v.2 Issue #7

One cbr file | 7 Mb | 21 pages
Jim Lee wraps up his two-issue run on Gen 13 here. Fairchild literally explodes out of the first page of this book. Also Burnout continues to be chased by foxy ex-villianess Bliss throughout the story. Some may notice that Lee does his own take on the original issue cover of Gen 13 with new team DV8 taking center stage. What does DV8 stand for? Digital Video - Region 8? I can't remember anymore. We haven't heard anything about the team DV8 since their series went out the window in the 90s. Bauer out.

Stormtroopers Invade the Rose Bowl Parade!

Uh-oh. You knew it had to happen. Lucas was piling up all that money from the Star Wars franchise for something, but what? A stormtrooper army to conquer the world of course! Waves of stormtrooper soldiers marched through the Rose Bowl Parade today in Pasadena, California. Sources say that some onlookers of the parade thought they heard Lucas mumbling to his troops "These weak minded fools. They thought it was all about the dvd sales. Today we shall begin construction of the real Death Star and then the galaxy shall see my true power! Movie critics shall tremble at my feet! Muhwa-ha-ha-ha!" Or maybe Lucas was just celebrating the 30th anniversary of the theatrical release of the original Star Wars. Believe what you will, but I for one feel a shift in the balance of the force.

Batman Issues #347, 350, & 353

Cbz and cbr files | 15 to 19 Mb each | 26 to 35 pages each
The first two issues are titled "The Shadow of the Batman" and "Nightmare in Crimson." Issue 353 is titled "Last Laugh" and of course features the Joker. I don't know exactly what the Joker is trying to do to Batman in this issue. Stretch him to death or blow him into itty bitty bat bits? Probably both. I don't care what the story is about. The cover looks cool enough for me to drop everything I'm doing and read this issue right...now! Bauer out.

Gen 13 v2 Issue #6

One cbr file | 13 Mb | 25 pages
I recently mentioned Jim Lee's 2-issue run on Gen 13. This came shortly before Lee took off to Marvel to pencil Fantastic Four. I think it's interesting to see his take on Gen 13, a book I never expected to see him draw, especially so early in the second volume of the series. J. Scott Campbell had made this series red-hot with his explosive pencils. I think Campbell was having some problems getting the book out on time and needed a break, so Jim stepped in for him for a two-issue stint. Still, I recall that this issue was at least a couple weeks late arriving on the stands. As most of you know, Gen 13 has recently been relaunched with the original superhero team. I doubt that the sales are that spectacular today, but during the 1990s Gen 13 was a phenomenon. I'm paging through a Wizard magazine from 1995 and I see that Gen 13 was ranked #7 of all comic books being sold. This book was outselling practically every comic book at the time. Only X-Men books, Wolverine, and Spawn had better sales than Gen 13. It was certainly a different world back then. Enjoy this action-filled issue of Gen 13! The second part to the Jim Lee run will be posted in a few days. Bauer out.

Superman Issue #140

One cbr file | 18 Mb | 29 pages
With Bizarro's reappearance (a much darker version) in a recent issue of Action Comics, you might want to check out one of Bizarro Superman's early appearances. Sometimes I wonder if the world is slowly transforming into Bizarro World. Maybe Bizarro wasn't that goofy a character after all. Bauer out.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Vol. 1 Issue #2

One cbr file | 7 Mb | 40 pages
You can expect dialogue like "Kiss Your Butt Goodbye!!" in this exciting, original issue of the Turtles. With a print run of only 15,000 an issue #2 1st Printing is very scarce. For those of you out there who haven't seen any of the first 4 issues up close, you might be surprised to see the size of these issues (7.5 inches by 11 inches). They certainly don't fit in your average comic book bags. There's plenty of content in this issue with 40 pages of action. Watch out for those Mousers. Bauer out.
