This week I didn´t get much done where the next issue of my comic book is concerned because after returning from Berlin I came down with the flu and I am only now recovering from the effects. So instead of regaling you with the slings and arrows we had to endure at the 2018 Comic Con Berlin here is another Joe Kubert tribute post that I could not get done earlier.
I know that some of my readers expected a post about Bernie Wrightson since Today would have been his 70th birthday but it´s still too early for me to process his passing. So in the meantime I am doing a post on which I was quite frankly already working in Berlin. Not that I want to give the impression that I am working day and night on this blog for the benefit of my readers. My brother informed me that some of my announcements about our convention appearances sound like I see myself as a rock star.
Which is probably the farthest away from the truth. In any case, I did schlepp my laptop all the way to Berlin in the hopes of posting some things on facebook during the con. As it turned out I couldn´t even get a connection so while I was trying in vain to enter the internet I started preparing this post. Speaking of trying to get a connection, the first day we arrived in Berlin there was an extremely busty sexbomb at the Hostel that would have been right down my alley but I was too bummed out to approach her and even if I would have managed to work up the courage to speak to this living blow up sex doll she would have probably just brushed me off. I didn´t see her later so that was another chance I didn´t grab.
Anyway, for this post I have selected mainly covers because it is much easier to find the color versions than with some of the interior pages.
Especially when you have no idea from which comic they are. I have not tried to include as many different series as possible and went with the best quality which in the end includes a lot of various books. There are also some nuggets from german comics as you can see in the first picture.
I didn´t write a lot about Joe Kubert in this post because I have already done so multiple times and I don´t like to repeat myself. Now don´t get me wrong, I copy / paste as much as the next guy because otherwise I would never finish these posts ( and you will get a lot of that in the following section ) but if you repeat something too often it gets boring for the readers. Apropos, I also told the story of my personal meeting with Joe Kubert at one of the first Comic Salons in Erlangen I went to more than once and the last time was in a post I wrote back in 2016 which naturally includes a lot of his great art. I should not have to mention this but besides working on such classic super hero books like Hawkman or Ragman ( whom some of my readers may know from his appearance on the Arrow tv show ) he excelled in depicting real life war stories which he did in such series like G. I. Combat, Our Army At War, Weird War Tales, The Unknown Soldier, The Losers and Sgt. Rock, the book he´s best known for.
And with that we are already wading knee deep through the link section with the usual suspects from the PENCIL INK BLOG who provide the cover and an interior page from G. I. Combat 142 , Our Army At War 97 , Our Army At War 153 , Star Spangled War Stories 124 , Weird War Tales 36 and Tarzan 222 as well as Swamp Thing 8 by Bernie Wrightson ( to whom we will return in a short moment ) and World´s Finest issue 273 by Don Newton.
Rounding up Today´s bonus comic book content you may have noticed the cover of Das Geisterhaus from german publisher Condor in this post. The series presented various issues of DC´s House of Mystery series to the german comic reading audience and for those visitors of the blog who also read german comics the always reliable Jacub Kurtzberg from DAS SAGTE NUFF has compiled a list of what was reprinted in which issue. While the covers may not be that appealing it offers a real treasure trove of artists including Joe Kubert, Bernie Wrightson, Jim Aparo, Ernie Chan, Alex Nino, Ernie Colon, E. R. Cruz, Alex Saviuk, Don Newton and Eduardo Barretto.
It seems that I have not written many post between the 23rd and 26th of October in previous years and I don´t have the time to go through the list of each day to see if there is somebody that I should mention. So I hope that all hot babes whose birthdays fall into that time frame will come to my attention in some other way. And as there also are no comic related birthdays that I covered previously we go directly to Today´s birthday list which is rather short. But as usual there are cult sirens aplenty. Speaking of which, we start with Robert Picardo who celebrates his 65th birthday and after going through his imdb rap sheet I realized that I have seen him in a plethora of movies and tv series before he starred in his breakout role of the Emergency Medical Hologram on Star Trek : Voyager, possibly the worst Star Trek series ever. I can´t say for sure because I gave up on the newest version after two episodes. Anyway, longtime readers know my disdain for Star Trek : Voyager and the only reasons to watch the show were Robert Picardo and Jeri Ryan who played the inflatable DD Borg playmate with the big melons and a skin tight bodysuit Seven of Nine.
For that Jeri Ryan earned herself a proper cult siren entry in 2015 which I re - posted in 2017 . Fun fact : Jeri Ryan and Robert Picardo reunited on the set of Body of Proof. Coming back to Star Trek : Voyager I´m sure there were thousand of Star Trek fans who wanted to be ass - imilated or better tit - milated by Borg sex drone Jeri Ryan and have Sex with Nine.
Jeri´s breasts were so huge that they made her skintight suit darker and darker so you couldn´t see them as good but to no avail. Seven of Nine is THE cyborg sex machine every sci fi fanboy wants to have multiple borg - gasms with ( she´s a literal sex machine who is not only built like a porn star with Jeri Ryan´s hardbody, as a cyborg she has a lot of stamina and endurance and she also can take a lot of punishment so you don´t have to be gentle and you will get a lot of mileage out of this cyber sex amazon ).
The only one who could hold a candle to her was Jolene Blalock as T´Pol, the sex massage pro with the inbuilt Pon Farr automatic nympho mode.
Star Trek : Voyager stuck Jeri Ryan and her big tits in a skin - tight suit in the show after Season 3 but Enterprise just went and put the alien blow up sex doll in the main cast of the show right from the pilot episode.
Sub - Commander / Commander T'Pol was the hottest vulcan sexbomb in the history of the universe and Enterprise's version of said Barbie of Borg.
Under an agreement with the Vulcan High Command and Earths Starfleet T´Pol was placed aboard the NX - 01 Enterprise as Science and Executive Officer, serving under Captain Jonathan Archer. However the hot alien would eventually be brainwashed into " serving under " Commander Charles ' Dubya ' Tucker the Third, while under the effects of Trellium D.
A Trellium - drugged out, semi emotional vulcan love slave with great curves and a killer rack - what's not to like about that ? Her exotic sex appeal transformed Commander Tucker into Commander Fucker who had mul - t´pol orgasms thanks to the ancient
forbidden vulcan sexmassages.
I know that T´Pol claimed it was something else but we all know what vulcan " body relaxation massage " really stands for. T´Pol was just needy for Tucker´s earth meatpole because while Phlox gave her the idea to practice the vulcan massage it
was T´Pol who went all " Kama Sutra on acid " on Tucker. And she was so turned on by their all night long midnight olympics sex marathon sessions that she had to use the old " it´s just for scientific reasons " schtick to relentlessly bang Tucker into submission.
Not that he put up much resistance to her since he´s been whacking off to her body since their first sessions in the decontamination chamber.
Our next candidate is John Cleese who turns 79 and although his list of movies and tv series is even longer than Robert Picardo´s he´s still best known as a member of cult comedy troupe Monty Python´s Flying Circus of which John Cleese himself said that it was underrated in Britian and overrated in the rest of the world. Besides his many accolades his biggest claim to fame in the history of cult siren cinematography is that he got to work with JaMILF Lee Curtis on Fierce Creatures and A Fish Called Wanda.
Jamie was not always a sex symbol and started out in horror movies like Halloween and The Fog where she quickly became very famous for her impressive set of lungs as one of Hollywood´s scream queens. Although she later became quite literal famous for her impressive set of lungs as her boobs had busted out and she quickly got the nickname " freezeframe " because her scenes in movies like Trading Places or Perfect became the most paused on the vcr thanks to her 34C - 22 - 34 measurements. Today she is best known for her incredibly hot striptease on True Lies, the best striptease in movie history - at least according to a poll conducted in 2007.
Which is all the more impressive if you keep in mind that Jamie Lee Curtis was 36 at the time. So she did her best movie scene when her body was in remarkable shape - she exercised every day for this - and I cannot even begin to imagine how epic it would have been if she hadn´t kept on her underwear and gone
full monty frontal nudity. Because James Cameron had seen her in A Fish Called Wanda and wrote the role of Helen Trasker specifically to see her nude body. A lot of other actresses auditioned for the role and while I could definitely see Demi Moore in that part ( who is the number one in my Top Movie Stripteases thanks to her spectacular performance in Striptease ) or even Kim Basinger, Michelle Pfeiffer, Geena Davis, Rosanna Arquette, Madonna, Jennifer Jason Leigh and possibly Lea Thompson or Sharon Stone I thank God that it wasn´t given to Emma Thompson, Melanie Griffith, Debra Winger, Anette Benning or Joan Cusak.
I have already done a number of posts on JaMILF Lee Curtis : the original post which mostly contains pictures with links to animated GIFs , one post with all the pictures I could find , a re - posted version with a few GIFs added and the post I did on her in 2016 which has lots of spectacular GIFs.
Speaking of spectacular GIFs, the reason why I am mentioning Demi Moore - besides the opportunity to feature her again - is that I already wrote a new version of her cult siren entry with more GIFs of Demi girating her booty than you can shake .... okay, I´m not going to finish the sentence.
As it is I had to split it into two parts because of the GIFs - I still have to finish up the fun section on the second part - and if all goes according to plan the two posts will be up on the blog on her birthday next month.
We continue with a quote from Monty Python´s Flying Circus : " Deja vu, the strange feeling we get that we have lived through something before. " as I seem to distinctively recall already having posted the following links and video about Bernie Wrightson. But in case I have not done so here is DIVERSIONS OF THE GROOVY KIND with 13 of Bernie Wrightson´s best splash pages from DC Comic´s House of Mystery, House of Secrets and Warren Publication´s Creepy and also this gallery of black and white art.
For Today´s music video I chose another favorite song from my woefully misspent youth and I´m sorry for the unfortunate preview picture but it´s the only video which I could find with the german version of the song ( I think the original is in swiss - german ) which is the one I´m familiar with.
Changing the pace originally I wanted to include another top ten list with the worst horror movie remakes but then I decided that since I already posted one such video why not do something more positive ? So instead of a list of movies you should avoid here is a somewhat different top ten list that includes Alyssa Milano´s breast movie Embrace of the Vampire.
Sexbomb Alyssa Milano ( who got two entries on this blog, the main post and the bonus round with her best episodes on Charmed ) is of course best known as the most charming, sexiest and all around greatest of all the Halliwell witches, Phoebe Halliwell on the cult tv show Charmed.
According to some interviews she gave later she wasn´t so keen on some of the sexy outfits but Alyssa was the main reason why guys watched the show, it was all to see
her shaking her hips as a sultry belly dancer with her tits hanging out or an almost naked
mermaid. Also Alyssa was busy taming male co - stars Julian McMahon and Brian Krause as her personal sex slaves.
Before she starred in Charmed Alyssa appeared in an episode of Outer Limits where she didn´t leave much to the imagination thanks to the lower restrictions of the Sci Fi channel. She was well on her way to become a sexsymbol but of course we wanted to see more of her. And male viewers
got their wish when Alyssa got her freak on in Embrace of the Vampire where she did her breast performance going full frontal.
I did a re - post of Alyssa Milano´s cult siren entry on her birthday in 2016.
Alyssa Milano´s career has always been heavily influenced by her porn star body which already developed at a very young age and her willingness to flaunt what mother nature gave her in such an abundance. Her tits were just made to be wrapped around a rock hard boner for a few hours and french polish it relentlessly to a spit shine. Which makes it kind of surreal that she made herself the spearhead of the whole Me Too movement.
I don´t know about the Weinstein thing as I am not that up to date with current events and it seems to be a lot of He Said / She Said involved. But I think I mentioned before that in Today´s movie industry actresses are not contractually bound to movie companies like in prior decades which means that if they don´t want to do certain things to get a role they can turn down a project and make a different movie. It´s not like Weinstein was the only game in town. The thing is that his movies were successful.
Another argument you could make is that the actresses who complained could also work at another job. There are so many women who are not actresses and still earn a living. It´s not like they are unable to work in another profession. But of course it´s not as glamorous as being a movie star. Anyway, those are just my two cents worth and since I am totally out of the loop with anything I picked these videos where Alyssa Milano´s tits look really gigantic and are going to explode out of her top any second.
As every year I don´t get to write too many posts before Halloween but I still want to reduce the huge pile of Halloween - or horror - related videos I bookmarked. So here is a Teens React video about 1970s horror movies, sadly without the usual highlights for which I always get into trouble.
Speaking of Halloween, I always include some reading recommendations which usually fall into the horror type genre so this year I want to pimp a different kind of Halloween story. And while Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale´s BATMAN : THE LONG HALLOWEEN does have a lot of spooky elements ( when you get down to the basics you could argue that Batman is a horror comic since so many members of his rogues gallery seem to be taken from nightmares and Batman´s modus operandi is dressing up as a giant bat to scare the living daylights out of criminals who are a superstitious and cowardly lot ) at it´s heart it is a classic Who Dunnit murder mystery.
Which was the reason for it´s incredible success because back at that time that was something that was solely missing from the Bat universe.
Okay, on one side it is a bit hard to swallow that the supposedly greatest detective on the planet needs a whole year to unravel this riddle but if he solves the case in the first issue you don´t get twelve more issues. In any case, if you haven´t read this story - and with new comic readers starting every month because of the movies I guess there is quite a number out there - give it a try. There are plenty of options available from the cheap back issues to trades, hardcovers or even absolute editions and even if it is not a horror comic per se it´s the perfect read for one Halloween night.
Taking a hint from Monty Python´s Flying Circus once again we are taking a break from all the gloom and doom with the nicer things in life which in this case are provided by romanian news anchor Oana Andoni. As I had promised in my last post here is the next batch of videos with the real life Power Girl. I don´t expect them to last long so enjoy them while you can.
So far we had two videos talking about horror movies so I think it´s time to include something a little bit more substantial. It has been a long time since I posted an episode from Are You Afraid of the Dark ? ( a series I discovered and came to appreciate thanks to the research for this blog ) and here is The Tale of the Midnight Madness one of their best stories.
And for those who prefer more mature horror here is The Evil a.k.a. House of Evil. I found this some time ago and almost passed it up when I saw it stars Richard Crenna best known as Colonel Samuel Trautman from Rambo.
By the way, another reading recommendation are the Rambo books by David Morell. Especially the first one has a let´s say mind blowing surprise.
I want to wrap up things with a less creepy cartoon, Dr. Seuss The Cat In A Hat and we will all pretend the movie with Mike Meyers never happened. Although when you think about it the way the cat just invades the kids home and then doesn´t go away is unsettling from Today´s perspective.
