'TFS Goku as Kirby'

Because MasakoX's Goku voice is my headcanon voice for Kirby and Team Four Star's characterization of Goku says some very Kirby-like things.

(I'm considering drawing Adeleine a lot just to make up for how scuffed she looks here good lord)

Captain America: Making of a War Hero into a Symbol of Hope

We all know that Captain America debuted in a title named after him by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby in 1941. He was seen punching Hitler right in the face but many may not know that this was done well before the US had decided to enter World War 2. In fact, at the time, the US was more concerned about its Pacific theater than the Atlantic. Nevertheless, Timely publishes the issue and Captain America gets established as a war hero from the start, who alongside his sidekick Bucky, is fighting fascism in continental Europe which is falling to the Reich like a house of cards

Cap at the time is the symbol of Freedom, anti-fascism, or as he would later be called the Sentinel of Liberty but there was one thing missing at Marvel. The House of Ideas lacked an inspiring figure like Superman among its flagship characters. The Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, The Incredible Hulk, The Invincible Iron Man, and even the Avengers had issues with themselves as well as with each other but a figure whom readers can look up to was something not present. Cap remained a 'man out of time' when he gets discovered by the Avengers but it takes a decade for writers to get him accustomed to the realities of America that were haunting the country from the streets to the Oval Office (Thank You, Jack Kirby and Steve Englehart)

Well into the bronze age era of comics, and under Jim Shooter's reign of the bullpen, a young J.M. DeMatteis shows his potential for storytelling with his first assignment of Captain America no. 261 which would introduce Nomad to the readers for the first time. This issue was supposed to be a collaboration with the real-life Captain America TV movie starring Reb Brown but Jim had other ideas. Issues 261-263 would find Steve Rogers going to California to meet Galactic Films for the upcoming movie about him (in Earth-616) but his real mission was to investigate Nomad's activities on the streets of LA which would turn out to be a deep conspiracy by one of his oldest arch nemesis

After becoming a regular writer on the Captain America series, DeMatteis, Mick Zeck, and John Beatty wrote a story that was way ahead of its time. Today's resurgence of the far left in the world and in the US and the reactionary rise of the far right was being seen by comic book writers like DeMatteis way before many had thought of it. Surprisingly it was a feeble populist villain by the name of Everyman doing the talk, not the Red Skull

In the story, the disenfranchised youth who looked up to Everyman realize their mistake of choosing 'despair over hope' but what causes them to see this is the humility Cap showed despite being spit at multiple times (literally). His eagerness to listen to the young, to the future of the country and their grievances with America, the American Dream leads to a change of heart

This single-issue story would showcase Cap in a different light. Steve Englehart had given Cap a rude awakening that patriotism can't come at the expense of truth and justice in Secret Empire. He showed Cap's disillusionment with the powers that be in America. DeMatteis took the opposite route to show Cap what's corrupting the country's future, and giving rise to the 'enemy within' who can cause anarchy. It wouldn't be wrong to say that Christopher Nolan's Bane (Dark Knight Rises) reminds us of Everyman but what's important to remember is that it was J.M. DeMatteis who warned us before anyone else did

This story is just the tip of the iceberg. The entire run by DeMatteis is one of the most underrated as it gets overshadowed by the works of Jack Kirby, Steve Englehart, and Mark Gruenwald. Like his works for Spider-Man and Doctor Strange, his work for Cap remains one of the best runs ever

261.   David Anthony Kraft (words); Pablo Marcos, Frank Giacoia  (art) - Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Coloring Book: The Rescue of Ringlerun (1983)

Another of the AD&D coloring books, bringing us the usual secondary characters from the TV show as well as a gaggle of other AD&D toyline stars, this one also features some art by truly legendary inker Frank Giacoia, a name familiar to anyone who read classic Jack Kirby Captain America or 70s Spider-man comics, being the inker on most of those. Giacoia actually started all the way back in the 1940s, so he's a veteran from the Golden Age of comics giving us some art, together with Pablo Marcos in these coloring books.

The Rescue of Ringlerun also adds a new factor to these books by adding some puzzles to entertain the kiddies, such as connecting the dots and so forth as you can see in the images above. 

These coloring books were a short lived thing, and I think I have only one more to cover, but its still fun stuff that shows how much D&D was stretching across media by 1983, a mere 9 years after the three brochures that Gygax put out with the basic rules.

George Kirby (June 8, 1923 – September 30, 1995) was a comedian, singer, and actor.

He was one of the first African American comedians to begin to appeal to white as well as African American audiences during the height of the Civil Rights era, appearing on Perry Como’s Kraft Music Hall, The Ed Sullivan Show, The Dean Martin Show, The Jackie Gleason Show, The Temptations Show, Rowan, and Martin’s Laugh-In and The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. He was an excellent impressionist — targeting, provocatively for 1960s performance venues, many white actors such as John Wayne and Walter Brennan rather than solely black stars such as Bill Cosby and Pearl Bailey — and, for a man of his ample girth, an unexpectedly agile dancer. He did vocal impressions of such singers as Louis Armstrong, Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, and Joe Williams.

He was allowed to produce The George Kirby Show, a television special, to gauge whether he could attract an audience for a weekly series. This led to his hosting Half the George Kirby Comedy Hour, a sketch comedy and variety show, which lasted for 22 episodes; it was one of the actor-comedian Steve Martin’s first credits in front of the camera. The series was in many ways an uneasy compromise between his natural gifts and what the public would accept of African American actors at the time; a regular feature was a shaggy dog story segment entitled the “Funky Fable”. He was a regular in the British series The Kopykats, with other impressionists such as Rich Little, Charlie Callas, Marilyn Michaels, and Frank Gorshin. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence

-Do you have a pet ?

Yep, four of em! Two dogs and two cats, although the numbers might change since I'm debating adopting a stray cat I feed periodically and one of my cats is gonna be moving out with family soon.

-Comfort food ?

Instant ramen or mac n cheese with ground beef. If it's homemade mac n cheese, I like the shell noodles best, and if it's kraft I just stick to the standard little tubes! It's great :)

-How many languages do you speak ?

Just one (English) but I know enough Spanish keywords to pick out a general topic with reading. My listening comprehension is terrible though -^-

My first ever platformer was Kirby Triple Deluxe and it's still very special to me
