J-Pop & Mental Assassin On “Fresh-Men: Armageddon” & Their Names (Censored)

ccc-52-j-popandmentalassassinc

With “Batman V Superman” I said stuff about how the critics are usually right.  Let me preface this first by saying “RottenTomatos” score for “X-men: Apocalypse” is TWICE the score of “BvS” and the audience score is higher as well.  So yeah I’m saying it, the critics are wrong on this one. It’s a good movie.  Might even be the best “X-men” yet.  Does it have problems? Certainly (although so does “Civil War”)? But they are problems that are part of EVERY “X-men” movie. (I’ll probably go into those specific problems later this week). If the review is “”X-men” movies don’t measure up to the best Marvel movies” then yeah.  But NO movies do except “The Dark Knight” and “Deadpool”. And honestly the top 3 movies may be unbeatable. If you like “X-men” movies you’ll like this one. More important than anything “Wolverine” kills people.  And it is glorious!  You know that part in “X2” where he stabs that one guy and you desperately want more and they NEVER deliver! You get a nice taste here.

Moving on, this comic features the first appearance of my “Jubilee” and “Psylocke” characters.  Originally I was gonna name J-Pop, Time Bomb but I thought it was kinda weak.  I racked my brain for a while and finally came up with “J-Pop” which I like a lot better. Mental Assassin, isn’t a name I’m super thrilled with, but I established it somewhere else so I’m stuck with it and I can’t think of anything better.  As this comic shows a glimpse of, “Psylocke’s” history is super convoluted as she was originally a British woman who switched bodies with an Asian assassin woman  (and there’s a lot more).  I decided to just make her a British Asian assassin from the jump.  I went back and forth if she should be British and or speak with an accent.  Ultimately I thought the accent made her more interesting so I went with it.  I’m sure its pretty broken and  inaccurate British that’s a poor mix of different regions.  I actually tried to listen the “Essex” accent which is what I think Psylocke’s should be, but I couldn’t catch the specifics of it in a way you could write it.

Next time Ms. Majors, Proud Lion, and Drizzle discuss “Fresh-Men: Armageddon” and rumors of a certain romance. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

The Innovator, Proud Lion, & The Good Knight On

“America-Man: Civil Unrest” & Being Rich, Smart, & Tough 

ccc-44-theinnovatorproudliongoodknight

With The Innovator I wanted to use colors not associated with “Iron Man”. We all know Iron Man traditional colors of red and gold, but he’s also worn suits that are red and silver (Silver Centurion), blue and gold, and all white (Superior Iron Man) among others.  I ended up going with a blueish gray and green for The Innovator’s armor.

It took a while to settle on a name for Proud Lion. I was sure I wanted it to be “something” Lion. I was thinking about Dark Lion or Shadow Lion, but black lions don’t exist and these names seemed too close to “Black Panther”.

That’s it for this week. See ya next Tuesday-Thursday for more Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Q-boy Short # 42 The Teacher And His Less Than Conventional Tactics

Q-boy Short # 42 The Teacher And His Less Than Conventional Tactics

qbs42

This one’s a weird one if I say so myself… Here’s some explanations in case you don’t get some things…

Joseph Hubert is based loosely based on the legendary comic book artist Joe Kubert who is the father of the two great comic book artists Adam and Andy Kubert. He is also the  founder of the Kubert School which is probably the most famous school to focus on cartooning and graphic art.

The idea behind this comic is making the school seem like the training area in the movie “Enter The Dragon”, or the area where Pai Mei trained Beatrice Kiddo in “Kill Bill”. “Kill Bill” also sorta inspired the whole thing with Joseph’s name in yellow, the codename, and the translation into Japanese.

The turtle shell thing is referencing one of the early parts of “Dragon Ball” where Goku and Krillin train with Master Roshi while where heavy turtle shells like he wears to get stronger.

Finally the whole “Joseph Hubert has joined the party” thing is a reference to role-playing video games, particularly Final Fantasy.

That’s pretty much it for this week. Next time we’ll see an example of Mr. Hubert’s work, and Q-boy and U’s girlfriends Miss Direction and Distaction Lass return… They aren’t happy… Hope you enjoy and see ya time!

The Bastardized Ninja Short # 36 Goodnight Ninja [Season 1 Finale] (Censored)

… And so ends “A Long Night With The Ninja” the first season of The Bastardized Ninja.  Our friend Richie has fought security guards, stolen his father car, robbed a convenience store, been chased by cops, fought mobsters, and had an epic battle with Yakuza Kim.   Along the way we’ve seen robots, zombies, clones, time travel, and one time we even saw Richie’s girlfriend.  It’s been one wild ride and a hell of a lot of fun telling this story.  Next season promises to be even crazier as we answer questions like:

“What was the deal with the guy in the all yellow room with the monkey?”

“Did that guy just get mummified while still alive, and what’s the deal with that?”

“Seriously the one chick only appears once!” [Not really a question there pal]

“Those clone Opposite Numbers guys… Wtf?!”

“Zombie Mobsters?!”

“Is that guy really on meth?”

“The dragon didn’t really do much. I’m disappointed” [Also not a question]

“Way back the ninja guy said something vague about a day job.  Is that gonna be a things or something?”

And several more!  Hope you’ll be there when The Bastardized Ninja returns.  Next time a new Q-boy Short where things get weird with Q-girl.  Hope you enjoy it!  By the way why do you think Richie has to get up so early?

So yeah… Things ain’t looking to good for our boy Yakuza Kim here, but does this give us a chance for him to return… We’ll see… Okay fine yes he will return.  Still if you were mummified while alive would you even want to return?  To say the least when he does return he is going to pissed and the ninja known as Richard Richardson is going to be the target of his rage.  In the next Bastardized Ninja we close out this season with our favorite foul-mouthed self-absorbed ninja with a look at his home.  The next post will be an all new Q-boy Short were Q-boy introduces Q-girl to the world, and tagging along is a superheroine by the name of Freedom Female.  Anyways folks don’t fake your way into a job, don’t plan to blind the people who prepare your body after you die, and generally don’t be a rube.  Hope you enjoy, and see you next time!
