Movie of the Week DOUBLE FEATURE!

Two movies this time around, because I don't have much for the next two in line! First up, "The Animal World"!





This is apparently some test footage done for the movie:






Mexican lobby card



Sadly, this movie doesn't seem to be available on DVD!

Here's the second feature: The Ape Man! First, the trailer:




French poster









This movie is definitely available on DVD! Here's one option:

Children's Book Theatre: Batman Big Little Book, Chapter 10!

And now, the conclusion of Batman in "The Cheetah Caper"!
















And that's it for this book! We'll see what I come up with for next time!

Cool Stuff!

Still looking at some cool Marvel character-related stuff!



Haven't seen one of these pop up on eBay for quite some time... it's Fleetwood Toys' Ghost Rider motorcycle toy, and it's probably the single most expensive 1970s Marvel toy to buy, period!



Get Down, America! My first wife had one of these Howard the Duck For President buttons.



Speaking of buttons, here's a 1960s Hulk button... and it's very difficult for me to figure out who the artist may have been, because it's so different from what I think of when I think of the Hulk!



Interesting Hulk figural gumball machine here... could've used a bit more detailing, but I'm guessing this was offered pretty cheaply!



I honestly don't think I remember seeing this model kit in the stores!



It's amazing how many of these slide puzzles I see offered on eBay that aren't even solved first...



...although apparently if they're capable of solving the puzzle, the seller still can't manage to take an in-focus photograph!



This is a pretty cool game concept... in, oh, probably a year or so, I'll get around to posting some other photos that I've collected that show more than just the box!



Is this an odd grouping of characters to put on one Puffi-Stickers sheet or what? Three Hulks, one Daredevil and a Mr. Fantastic...



Yes, your eyes aren't deceiving you... that is, indeed, an Incredible Hulk train set. Stupidest Hulk toy ever? Maybe. Stupidest licensed character toy ever? Maybe. Some day, I will have to start a blog that just posts pictures of stupid licensed character toys



And now, we're back to the buttons, with this very cool vintage "Make Mine Marvel" button!



I think I may have posted some of the art from these Gum Comics before, but I could be wrong... they could just be coming up in the future on one of the more focused blogs!

Next time around: Marvelmania Catalogs and More!

Give-A-Show Fridays: Peter Potamus and the Jetsons!

Cool Stuff: Original Comic Art!

Time for another round of original comic book art! You know, one of these days, I should probably just start a new blog that shows off comic book art...



This time around, I start with a tier from page 23 of Batman 180, by Shelly Moldoff! It's amazing to think of all the comics art pages cut up like this, isn't it?



Here's a classic page from a classic story! It's page 18 from Batman 232, by Neal Adams!



Here's page 21 from Batman 336, by Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez!



Next, we have page 70 from Batman Family 19, it's the Huntress story (obviously) by Joe Staton!



This is page 8 from the Batman-Hulk comic... unfortunately, the seller didn't mention the actual title or issue number, and unfortunately, I haven't bothered to find out what it is, either! But I'm guessing one of you faithful readers will chime in...



Here's something different... it's the cover for Gold Key's Battle of the Planets #10, and it's by Win Mortimer! Win had previously worked at DC and Marvel (most notably at Marvel on Spidey Super Stories).



Here's Win's cover for issue 11!


And here's the cover for issue 9!



Next up, a golden oldie of sorts... it's page 4 from Black Cat #11, by Lee Elias!



Next, we're on to Brave and the Bold, with page 27 from B&B 92, by Nick Cardy!



Here's page 5 from B&B 39, by Joe Kubert!



Next up, it's John Romita's cover for Captain America #141, a landmark issue for me, as this was the first issue of Cap I recall ever having!



Moving on, here's page 12 from Captain Marvel 27, by Jim Starlin!



Next, it's page 31 from Captain Marvel 59, by Pat Broderick!



We're back to Captain America again, with page 17 from Captain America #100, by Jack Kirby!

And with that, I'll put this installment to a close, but there'll be more Captain America and more Kirby next time around!
