So I recently finished reading "The Approaching Storm" by Alan Dean Foster (who wrote Splinter of the Mind's Eye and began the canonical expanded chronicles of the Star Wars mythology). And it is a very nice novel, really character driven so a lot of great interaction and the stakes are high at times (even if you know all four Jedi have to make it to be there for the events surrounding the Assassination Attempt on Senator Amidala... for Attack of the Clones). This novel has made Barriss Offee one of my favorite characters now... her quiet-kid nature contrast with times she makes herself heard when questioning matters; along with how she is very introspective and observant, sensitive to other's pains and also has an artistic side to her as well. It's also cool seeing her and Anakin bond as friends in this, as they are around the same age as Padawans though with different backgrounds and experiences. If you have not read it, it is a recommended read (you can easily pick it up at Barnes & Nobel in the Tales of Kenobi volume that also includes the Kenobi novel set between Order 66 and the Battle of Yavin IV).

"God's Word is TRUTH, Decepto! The Bible tells me in James Chapter 4, verse 7, that if you resist the Devil he will run from you, and God's Word never comes back void... you can't win Decepto!"

I'll be honest, "Big Big Book", the very first episode ever of Bibleman (during "The Bibleman Show" era of 1995/1996 and 1998's "Defeating the Shadow of Doubt" as well as a transition between it and "The Bibleman Adventure"), kind of... well... works better in the veins of Psalty or The Donut Man... the flashback scene where Bibleman (Miles Peterson unbeknowst to the kids) is defeated and thrown into Dr. Decepto's dungeon.. that scene is the best part, let alone... the whole sequence and tone should have been the whole episode. The atmosphere, the more darker nature, the music and unsettling campiness attempting to be dramatic... and the whole backstory behind the backstory, why did these events happen? I really wish that were the case instead of a bunch of random happy-songs... especially with how low-budget it is, it gives this nostalgic vibe of a dark adventure show from an era where having low production values was okay... and era lost forever now.

Thank you, X-Men Saga... for everything.

For being stylistically cool, deep and beautiful

For showing the differences between those who want to do good for everyone verses those who seek power over others (rather they be human OR mutant)

For having a great cast of characters.

For the lessons taught

For being different.... even with falling into traps of riding on some tropes, you were sill different

And despite ups, downs and repeating and missed opportunities.. thank you for lasting as long as you have,, even passed your "ending".

Thank you for the legacy you have left and for still being appreciated to this day. You're always hold a special place in my heart and be one of my favorite versions of the X-Men's world.

The Bibleman Adventures

The three generations

,,,from Padme Amidala (Skywalker), to Leia Organa Solo.. to Jaina Solo.

A long time ago in a galaxy far far away..... generations of the family Skywalker, Solo included, had adventures, trials and victories throughout the Old and the New Republics.

Wow, I been living under a rock (particularly a big mountain, inside the pirate cave under it). I had no idea Lego Island was being salvaged by MODers and preserved in order to be playable again in the current age. Free to play https://isle.pizza/ and yes, it was soooooooooo good to play it again for the first time in a decade (I played it again back in 2014 on our big computer... the computer hasn't been on in years). It feels so great to visit one of my favorite places again....

Happy Earth Day, everybody.

A Quiet Moment By The Window

Days ago I suddenly had the idea and urge to draw this scene of Luigi Mario, sitting in his mansion during rainy weather, reading a Jane Austin novel

(it was Pride & Prejudice then I thought.. maybe something else.. then with suggestion from a friend.. I went back with the original idea).
