We just got the good news! Comic Book Literacy at Comic-Con!!!
Details coming soon!

The Man of Wax

As I mentioned before, I am in the astoundingly time consuming process of going through my old tapes and pictures taken on various shoots from the last several years.

I stumbled across some pictures of the Superman wax statue and movie costume that were on display at the "Palace of Wax & Ripley's Believe it...or Not!" in Grand Prairie, TX.It's not the best likeness of Christopher Reeve but it's not the worst either.

We took these pictures while shooting a segment for "North Texas Explorer."

Okie Doodling Redux

We shot part of the documentary in Oklahoma which has been home to a surprising amount of comic book writers and artists like Chester Gould ("Dick Tracy") and Archie Goodwin (legendary editor and both DC and Marvel). Who knew?

The Oklahoma History Center is paying tribute local creators with "The Uncanny Adventures of Okie Cartoonists" exhibit:

Color Blind

I found a "fail" in the toy aisle. Good times.
It's always important to read the "ingredients" on the package of what you buy but sometimes it just doesn't help.

A Tribute to Robots: A Robot Tribute

For some reason Blogger won't let me upload any videos so we're going back to our YouTube roots for a Tribute to Robots.

When you drive around to many, many places in order to shoot video for various documentaries you are bound to run into a robot or two. This video is a loving tribute to many of the robots I have met in my travels.

Look! Up in the Sky! What the Hell is That?

What if I told you a giant 40-foot-long iguana flew from New York to Texas? Now is that something you might be interested in?

Epic Win

Cool!
