Apex, & Death Poll On Trump (Censored)

ccc-156-specialgirlqboyapexdeathpolltemplatec-01

There’s this weird thing going on where people keep saying “Trump’s the president now we have to give him a chance”. Um… No, we’re Americans we don’t do that. Like I put into the comic we tear mercilessly at our leaders and that’s the good ones we actually like. The same people saying this never gave Obama a chance, and that’s not even getting into the fact Trump lost the popular vote by nearly 3 million, is quite possibly being controlled by Putin, and appointed almost comically terrible people to his cabinet. This guy even lies about stuff that there is photo evidence of like the number of people at his inauguration. They’ll have to come up with some really big “alternative facts” to down play all the people protesting against him.

As for Steve Harvey… That was disappointing… I think he thought he was doing a good thing meeting with Trump. “Having a seat at the table” as he put it, but that table is only for billionaires.

Tomorrow we swap out Apex & Death Poll for Luscious Trapp & Quickie as the conversation goes all over the place then circles back to Trump. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #155 – Succubus, Drizzle, & Luscious Trapp On Randomness Then More Obama

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #155 – Succubus, Drizzle, 

& Luscious Trapp On Randomness Then More Obama

ccc-155-succubusdrizzleandluscioustrapp-01

As I write this the comic isn’t done yet. It’s another one where I originally wrote too much material and now I have to edit and squeeze what I can in.  When you see this it will be the last day of Obama’s presidency. There’s so much to say, and yet there’s nothing to say.

There won’t be an increase in the minimum wage. We can only hope there is one at all.

Deregulation will increase the severity of climate change and cause more disasters like the one in Flint.

Maybe they’re not crazy enough to snatch healthcare from millions… Maybe

And this is the small stuff. Not the “Russia might now control America”, insane conflicts of interest, loss of Civil Rights stuff.  Yesterday I wrote that 2 things going through my head were “the cycle” and “learning the wrong lesson”. A 3rd thing is “we deserve a better ending” and that’s what I attempt to do more and more from these comics.

That’s it for this week. Check out new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” Tuesday-Thursday. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #154 – Ms. Majors, Drizzle, & Luscious Trapp On …Eventually They Get To Obama

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #154 – Ms. Majors,

Drizzle, & Luscious Trapp On …Eventually They Get To Obama

ccc-112-msmajorsdrizzleandlouscioustrappc

Two things keep ringing in my head. “The cycle” and “learning the wrong lesson”.  As much as I hope we’ll break this cycle of voting in one party for 8 years then voting in the other I really don’t see us breaking it. I’m still seeing too many people blaming the wrong people. The lesson to learn is VOTE. The one glimmer of light in this election is that it proved there’s a lot more of us than them. If this is even kind of a democracy (and it’s quite possible it soon might not be) if we come out we win.  We can argue about the specifics later.

I’ll go ahead and say it. Obama is easily the best president of my lifetime, and Bill Clinton was a damn good president. Clinton was president in a time of relative peace and when the economy was almost certainly going to be good due to the internet boom though.  Obama inherited 2 wars and a near Great Depression. Another thing I’ll miss about Obama is not being embarrassed by the president. That really sucked under Bush and with Trump it’s already so much worse.

Tomorrow we swap out Ms. Majors for Succubus as they talk more “Scandal” and Obama. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

This is it. Like for real no joke. Obama is gone after Thursday and Trump is the Goddamn president. There isn’t going to be any last minute save. The “rebels won’t come through with the plans”. This is it. Seriously, what’s the best case scenario? Our country just being an embarrassment until Trump’s impeached?

It still doesn’t feel real. There’d be a sadness to this week even if Hillary had won, but this is something else. The thing is though, through it all Obama himself still seems to have faith in us. He has no reason to. We failed him at pretty much every mid-term election, and we failed to hold on to his legacy. But still he has faith in us, he still has hope. The whole hope thing isn’t BS with him. That might be the thing I like best about him. That he was almost always steady and calm. Nothing was ever unfixable, a defeat was always temporary, a challenge was never impossible.

Okay more about Obama later this week on to this actual comic. So I originally thought “Scandal” started this week, but it’s actually next week. It’s a damn good show. Parts of the last few seasons have gotten ridiculous but other parts always keep it interesting enough that it’s worth watching. If you never watched it I highly recommend it.

Tomorrow these 3 return to talk about “Scandal” and maybe Obama a bit. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #135 Special-Girl, Jade Archer, Luscious Trapp, & Mr. Mystic On Last Week’s Big TV Crossover

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #135

Special-Girl, Jade Archer, Luscious Trapp, & Mr. Mystic On Last Week’s Big TV  Crossover

ccc-135-jadearcherspecial-girlluscioustrappandmrmsticprojectiontemplate

Last week was the big crossover with “Supergirl”, “The Flash”, “Arrow”, and “Legends Of Tomorrow”.  It was really fun to see all these characters together. I think it really illustrated that “Supergirl” is great, but her show isn’t.  The other thing this illustrates is that “Supergirl” needs to be part of “Arrowverse”. The shows are on the same network so let’s do a mini-“Crisis” or something (you can also kill off “Wally West” while you’re at it) and bring her in. Better yet I have a better idea… Hear me out now… Put “Supergirl” on “Legends Of Tomorrow”. “Supergirl’s” show is just going to limp along with “Lena Luthor” and her mom doing a crappy rendition of “Lex Luthor” and his dad in “Smallville”. We’re going to have to suffer through “Jimmy Olsen” being a crappy hero no one cares about, and him hiding it from “Supergirl” for dumb reasons and then a predictable and stupid fall out from it. Instead lets take the best “DC Comics” “CW” show and make it even better. “Supergirl” and “Heatwave” interacting alone makes this worth doing.

Tomorrow Mr. Mystic (in spiritual projection form) try to talk some more with “Quickie” and “White Swallow” about the big crosssover last week.

Proud Lion, Mr. Mystic, & Luscious Trapp On Proud Lion’s First Job (Censored)

ccc-134-proudlionmrmysticluscioustrappc

Ever met someone who didn’t see some movie or TV show , and you’re just like “how”?  Like it’s a movie or show that seems to ALWAYS be on somewhere or more importantly it’s a classic that everyone’s seen. Ever been that person that somehow didn’t see the movie or show EVERYONE has seen? I’ve certainly been both.

It’s always interesting what different people see as “must see” or “classic”. Personally, being able to get “Simpsons” references is like a test of character. Speaking of which, we’re at the sad time of the year when the big yearly “Simpsons” marathon on “FXX” has reached the point where it’s past the 2nd episode of season 12 (the last good episode IMHO). Oh well it was a nice few days of laughs…

That’s it for this week. Check out new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” Tuesday-Thursday. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

The History Of Comics With Q-boy #63 Reunited And It Feels… Even Worse Than Before (Censored)

The History Of Comics With Q-boy #63 Reunited And It Feels… Even Worse Than Before (Censored)

qbs63c

Yeah so this one is pretty late. My schedule has changed a lot over the last few weeks, and that along with doing the pre-election special for “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” held this up.  Here we begin the final big adventure before we end this Silver Age chapter of “The History Of Comics With Q-boy”.  I figured for this I’d base the panels on all the artists who have been featured in the Silver Age chapter of these comics. On to the panels…

  • Panel 1 is based on 2 panels from page 31 of “Jungle Comics” #11 by Fletcher Hanks which you can check out here https://goo.gl/UfjzYT
  • Panel 2 is based on a page from “The Daring New Adventures Of Supergirl #13” by Carmine Infantino which you can check out here https://goo.gl/8A62j7
  • Panel 3 is based on a page from “Kull The Conqueror” #2 by Marie Severin which you can check out here https://goo.gl/CLBEs4
  • Panel 4 is based on page 9 of “Fantastic Four” #102 by Jack Kirby which you can check out here https://goo.gl/MZLcqW

Next time… Actually I haven’t written it yet, but I got a rough idea where I’m going. Check out new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” Tuesday-Thursday. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!
