We have various options to choose from:

- T-shirts

Falling Out is a film about four friends who meet up for their 20th high school reunion and decide to make a week's vacation out of it. Nostalgia amongst old buds can only hold them together for so long though, as a nuke goes off a few hours from them and traps them inside— lifting the veil of familiarity and forcing them to realize how much they hate each other.

Get ready for a fallout with a falling out!

The Chainsword Is Just Too Fun

Is anyone else having plenty of fun in the Juggermosh game mode?  I certainly am.  It is probably because you can end up on such ridiculous sprees with the Chainsword that I have more MGBs in the last week than the total I've seen since Modern Warfare 2 introduced the killstreak in 2009. I normally just post gameplay, maybe a minor edit here or there but this was my first attempt at doing some edits.  I'll admit, it's not perfect, but I think it's a good first try.  Let me know what you think, hope you enjoy. ________________________________________________________

I've been MIA for a bit, working on my comic books. It's a lot of work, but then the Deadpool 3 trailer dropped and I knew I had to do something to celebrate it.

I had heard of Deadpool's crazy antics before, but I didn't really pay attention until the first movie came out. Ryan Reynolds nailed it as the Merc with the Mouth and I was hooked. I devoured his killogy: Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe, Deadpool Killustrated, and Deadpool vs Deadpool. Then I moved on to Night of the Living Deadpool and its follow-up Return of the Living Deadpool. Of course, leave it to Deadpool to have a bunch of ridiculous endings in Deadpool: The End.

Deadpool & Wolverine will showcase the return of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine after retiring from the role once he finished Logan (2017). I’m happy he was willing to come back, not just to see him play with Deadpool but also to see what this may mean for the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Whether it will lead to a new Wolverine reveal or if Mr. Jackman will stick around for Secret Wars at least, I am excited for this new release in July.

In honor of that, here we have Deadpool and Wolverine, locked in battle… just as teddies. Hope you enjoy.

Hey! Came across your Teddy Bear Star Wars art while scrolling through my your tags tab. LOVE IT. It expresses so much joy and made me smile today. Thank you for putting this out into the world.

I'm happy to see you enjoyed it. Bringing a smile to people is what I do it for. Thank you for letting me know I succeeded. 😸

I plan on continuing as the saga does, and bringing in characters I missed, so be on the lookout in the future.

The end had come to our saga. Palpatine may have returned but he was finally dealt with completely. Joined by the force of past Jedi, Rey mustered the strength to take on the ultimate foe of the Star Wars video saga.

Here we have Rey joined by Anakin, Obi-wan, Yoda, Luke, Ashoka, Qui-gon, and Mace Windu. All giving her the strength to counter the Emperor's devastating lightning. Thank you for joining me on this little journey of mine and as always, hope you enjoy.

This is when the fandom fractured in my opinion. The movie that broke the fans by subverting everything it could in the Star Wars mythos or did it?

I'm not going to open that can of worms but I don't think the lore established in the movie is that awful. The movie felt a bit dragged out for the simple plot it had, but other than that I was fine with it.

Whether you liked the movie or my opinion on it... When it comes to the art, hope you enjoy.

I remember seeing The Force Awakens in theaters when it came out. As far as I can remember, it was actually the first Star Wars I got to see in theaters. It was beautiful seeing the Millennium Falcon flying across that screen. Han Solo and Chewy. I was a kid again.

I know a portion of the fanbase is against the sequel era but I've got to say, that feeling I got when I saw that movie, even though I was an adult when it happened it finally happened, is the kind of feeling that unites the entire fanbase for generations. The magic, the wonder. I grew up with the prequel generation, that was panned back then. The sequels are for the children of this generation. Let's not forget that and stop all the fighting.

Here we have Finn and Rey after they met at the Jakku market. The Empire hot on their heels. They're on the way with BB-8 to find a ship to escape. That magical moment I spoke about. Hope you enjoy.

I'll admit, I didn't watch this series. I heard it was more for kids but seemed like a good segue into the sequel era of Star Wars. Especially since Poe Dameron showed up in this series.

Here we have Poe Dameron, Kazuda Xiono, and Torra Doza. Carrying on the Rebel spirit with their Resistance of the First Order. Hope you enjoy.

Boba Fett has been much beloved since his first appearances in the much maligned Holiday Special and The Empire Strikes back. I find it amazing how big he has gotten considering I heard he was originally meant to be just a new Stormtrooper design but the budget could only afford one. So they reworked him into a bounty hunter and the rest is history. He may have become the clone of his father, Jango Fett, but he is still his own man.

Here we have Boba Fett, the galaxy's most ruthless bounty hunter returned from the Sarlacc Pit. After his time with the Tusken Raiders and helping Mando, he returned to Tatooine as Star Wars always does. He conquered Jabba the Hutt's throne along with his trusted partner, Fennec Shand. Hope you enjoy.

Din Djarin, The Mandalorian, graced our screens and was immediately loved. His fatherly love for Grogu (Baby Yoda) has gripped our hearts. He has made friends with Boba Fett, Bo Katan Kryze, Luke Skywalker, among many others that most recently brought him to Mandalore. Amazing.

Here we have Mando blasting his way into battle as Bo Katan takes to the sky. Grogu using the force skills that Luke managed to teach him before he sent him back to his father. Hope you enjoy.

Anakin Skywalker was the chosen one to bring balance to the force until he was twisted by Emperor Palpatine into becoming the vile, hate filled Darth Vader. It was only through his son's grip on the light side that managed to bring back Anakin to the light.

Here we have the culmination of the original trilogy. Father versus son. The Emperor enjoying his evil machinations come to fruition. Hope you enjoy.

While not exactly a particular scene in the movie, it's inspiration is a very emotional scene. I wanted to make sure I included as many important characters as I could in the series and with that that was no way I was leaving out Lando or the widely loved Boba Fett.

Here we have when Lando changed his mind about double-crossing his guests for the Empire. Well, Han was okay to let go... Hope you enjoy.

The one that started it all. The first ever Star Wars, Episode IV A New Hope. This is the movie that got me into Star Wars. Well, admittedly it was more the entire original trilogy but you get what I am saying.

Here is the quintessential scene of "Help me Obi-wan Kenobi". Of course I had to do this scene, it is one of the most known scenes from the movie. Hope you enjoy.

Rogue One, what a great movie. This movie was one of the reasons I did not see a point to the Andor show. I thought it was going to be totally different and did not see a point when we already watched the conclusion. That argument could have been made for the prequel movies and Darth Vader I suppose.

Here we have the final shot of Jyn Erso and Cassian Andor as the Death Star moves into position. I'm pretty proud of how this came out and as always, hope you enjoy.

The powerhouse that this series was. I know there were people that found it boring but I totally disagree. It showed a different side of the rebellion story. Instead of laser swords and telekinesis powers it was real, human stories. Andy Serkis knocked his part out of the park, as always, and his speech scene is what I decided to design around.

I originally was not interested in this series but now I am eagerly awaiting season 2. Until then, hope you enjoy.

I'm excited to see the return of most of the Ghost crew in the upcoming Ashoka show and take on Thrawn. The ever looming Grand Admiral Thrawn, that was introduced to the viewers in Rebels, is shown here, leering over young Ezra Bridger. Along with Ezra's teacher, Kanan Jarrus, who was once a padawan that survived order 66.

I'm excited to see how their story plays out in the live-action space. When it comes to my set though, hope you enjoy.

Darth Vader was sinister and menacing for the entire series. You could feel the true dread during the episode where he's tracking down Obi-wan.

Here we have the powerful scene when he caught up with Obi-wan and dragged him thru the flames, similar to when Obi-wan let him burn near the lava of Mustafar. Hope you enjoy.
