Flat Top Jones

Here's one of the best characters from Dick Tracy's rogue gallery: Flat Top. Although the movie was not true to the cannon, I still get a kick out of it every time I watch it. I loved the photography and make-up... plus it takes me back to my childhood.
What else can I say?

EGON SPENGLER: Freight Features

One of the coolest action figures from my Real Ghostbusters collection. Without a doubt, Egon was the brains of the team.
The only thing that sucked about playing with it is that the tie was thin and easy to break --which is probably no big deal compared to Winston, whose leg would fall off after a couple of squeezes. Oh well...
Who you gonna call?

Bugs from outer space.

Yet another one of my collectible gum cards. This is a character from a Sci-Fi web comic that will hopefully see the light of day in the near future.

Enjoy!

Ahhh the 50's...

Who you gonna call?

I have always been a huge fan of the Ghostbusters. I've watched the first movie hundreds of times and I don't think I ever missed a single episode of the RGB cartoons back in the day.
Needless to say I was more than happy when I got this assignment from High Definition Review earlier this year.
I bought the XBox 360 videogame a few weeks ago when it came out and haven't had enough spare time to finish it just yet.

This is a good year for Ghostheads like me with the BluRay movie release, the videogame, the Time Life collection and now the new Mattel "action" figures. I haven't felt this good since I was 10. I hear they're working on a script for the third movie and I hope they do a good job with it... lots of us have been waiting for a long time now.

Why so serious?

Hey everybody!
I did this one for my friends at High Definition Review magazine a little while ago. I think about a couple of months before Heath Ledger passed away.
A few years back when the news came out about Heath playing the part of the Joker I was extremely upset. To be honest, I didn't think the guy would be able to pull it off.
Boy, was I wrong. The guy was definitely the Best Joker Tinseltown has ever had to offer. Too bad we won't be seeing him again in any sequel.
