Last time: Sador arrived and ran headlong into stiff opposition, losing fighters and many soldiers on the surface of Akir. But the good guys suffered losses as well, with many farmers turned fighters dying along with Gelt and possibly the…
Last time: Sador’s sentries upon Akir they preyed and were themselves waylaid. Our heroes prepared for Sador’s raid by constructing moat and stockade, all the while a harmonica was played. Then St. Exim at Sador threw shade! But was her…
Last time: Shad and Nan found new recruits: an assassin for hire, a collective consciousness that was bored, and a reptilian space whaler with a grudge. Oh, and Sybil Danning. Speaking of which…
Gelt (Robert Vaughn, in case you forgot…
Last time: Shad avoided a frog march to the wedding altar and made two new friends, and Sador nuked a planet… pretty much because he could.
We cut to Nanelia, who had been heading to the Lambda sector. She’s flying…
Last time: Sador of the Malmori showed up in his hammer (time!) ship to threaten the Akira and their peaceful way of life. With him coming back in seven days, it’s up to wide-eyed farm boy Shad to take…
To say Star Wars was a gamechanger is putting it lightly. While science fiction as a genre had been represented in some way, shape, or form in cinema since its inception, it seemed once George Lucas and Gary Kurtz’s masterpiece…
Read part one of this list.
I knew when I was compiling this list and going back through the Astro City library that there were going to be stories that almost made the cut but didn’t. Such is the strength…
I love Astro City. I love the concept of Astro City, a sprawling anthology series about the heroes and normal people living in what is arguably the most amazing metropolis ever seen in comics. That sounds like hyperbole.…
If you read the sixth and final part of my Conan the Destroyer recap last week (you did read that, didn’t you? No? Well, here’s a link to it. You’re welcome), you know I discussed a little bit about what…
Last time: Jehnna retrieved the horn, which turned out to be in possession of another faction of Dagoth worshipers. Bombaata escaped with the princess and the horn, leaving the others in the dust with the knowledge that when Taramis gets…
Last time: Bombaata’s boys blew it when they tried to kidnap the princess, Conan got his drink on, the gang found a dungeon to plunder, and against all odds Tracey Walter made me like Malak. Let’s see if my hatred…
Last time: Conan fought a dude wearing an ugly rubber mask and smashed a bunch of mirrors to defeat him. He turned back into Thoth Amon and he chose wizardcide rather than be captured. The princess retrieved the hot rock…
Last time: Conan and company began their quest, picking up new members Zula (okay, I’m calling Grace Jones by her character name now) and Mako (still calling him Mako). But the team hit a snag when the sorcerer Thoth Amon…
Last time: Conan and (sigh) Malak, professional thieves, were tracked down by Queen Taramis, who had a job for the former and pretty much pretended the other didn’t exist. If Conan undertakes the quest to bring her niece…
It’s safe to say that Conan the Barbarian was and is one of my favorite movies from my youth. Arnold seemed like a larger than life demi-god with that inhuman physique of his, the action was the most violent I…
Last time: Diana defeated Ares by wrapping Gaea’s lasso around him, which she discovered could force a person to see the truth of things, and Ares came to realize this new war would be the last and a lack of…
A video celebrating my pbem game.
Last time: Team Diana figured out some of Ares’ plot and fought Deimos and Phobos. Killing off the first and driving off the other, they used both amulets together to face off against Ares, whose mortal stooge General Tolliver has…
Last time: Diana defeated Decay and the media crowned her with a new name: Wonder Woman. Steve tracked her down for help, but before he could explain, Etta was apparently ambushed by Trevor’s friend, Colonel Michaelis.
On Paradise Island, things…
Last time: Diana and Hermes brought Steve Trevor back home, only for him to face attempted murder and to be framed for one himself, while Deimos fomented war between the East and West. Meanwhile, Diana met new friends and was…
