Karl May / Into the Spider - Verse spin - off

You might think that once I have finished the post I can get to the next one but because this one has become a bit long and I don´t want the latest stuff I added to be overlooked I have made another spin - off post.


When I was growing up there were two writers whose work you had to read, the first one was Jules Verne and the other was Karl May. I have mentioned Karl May and Winnetou ( and especially Elke Sommer´s deep cleavage in Unter Geiern which left a lasting impression on little Subzero ) in a few posts but I only got around to do one post on Karl May with a special emphasis on the Winnetou comic books in 2016. So far I have not made a follow up post because for once I´m not that versed about Karl May and I mostly know the movie adaptions they have made of his books.


Elke Sommer really was the personification of the german Fräuleinwunder and a living screen goddess. Here she is on the Johnny Carson show.



Since all of the Winnetou movies I have posted have been deleted from YouTube I hope I have more luck with The Lion of Babylon. This is one of the few movies with Georg Thomalla as Hadschi Halef Omar Ben Hadschi Abul Abbas Ibn Hadschi Dawuhd al Gossara and Helmut Schneider as Kara Ben Nemsi. In most movies you will find Ralf Wolter as Hadschi Halef Omar and Lex Barker as Kara Ben Nemsi who became famous for playing Tarzan. Man, he really was a man´s man back when I was a kid because he not only was the hero in a dozen of movies he also portrayed the most famous of all : Tarzan, Robin Hood, Old Shatterhand and Kara Ben Nemsi Effendi.



Since I mentioned Brian Michael Bendis and Miles Morales I want to add this video about Spider - Man : Into The Spider - Verse since I have finally managed to see it. I don´t want to say too much about the movie because I don´t want to spoil things but I knew going in that I would not like the movie as much as some of the people who have raved online about how good this film is. And I´m not saying that because I think of myself as more sophisticated than other people or my taste to be more eclectic than the regular non comic book reading movie goer. I know that there are people who think that they are somehow better and more educated because they come from a big city compared to people who come from the small town. I know of some cases from Germany or Spain but from I have heard this is a really big thing in America. Anyway, the reason why I knew that I would not like this movie as much as some of the other ticket buyers is that in my opinion two of the best spider - characters out there are not in the movie. The first may be a personal favorite - although they included him in the end credit scene - Miguel O´Hara a. k. a. Spider - Man 2099.


I have to confess that I have never read a lot of comics with Miles Morales but from what it is said in the video below he does not have any features that distinguish him from Peter Parker. Miguel O´Hara on the other side was not only a character of mixed mexican and irish descent long before diversity and racial representation became nothing more than cheap attempts to sell more comics. Or at least get some favorable reviews by SJWs since they do not buy comic books. But he also was a very different character than Peter Parker so you didn´t have the impression that you were just re - reading old Spider - Man comics. I know that there are some new comic books with him written by the original writer Peter David but for me it´s just not the same without Rick Leonardi. Also I´m not sure if Peter David is allowed to write SJW free stories in Today´s comic industry.


Speaking of which, the other character that I missed in the movie is the one, the true, the golden oldie accept no substitues often imitated but never duplicated Spider - Girl, the daughter of Peter Parker and Mary Jane, May " Mayday " Parker. The best of all the female versions of Spider - Man the guys at Marvel fought against her - and also her fans - tooth and claw, trying to cancel her book various times and when that didn´t work they renumbered her book before she reached issue 100 and then put her in an Spider - Man anthology to use her popularity to sell inferior spider stories.


Now you may ask what this has to do with the comic industry but I knew going in that she was not in the movie. Instead we get Disney´s new try to cash in with the overrated and overhyped Spider - Gwen, one of the most obviously fabricated characters to appeal to fans that I have seen.


I ordered the True Believers issue of her comic book to give it a try but at one buck I still felt robbed. The story was so uninteresting and the art so bad that I could not believe this was a Marvel comic. The other female version of Spider - Man we got was this weird little girl with the robot which was an obvious ploy to appeal to the anime fans. I just hope she is only in the movie and does not appear in the comics. Although since I have given up reading new Marvel comics I don´t really care. Anyway, this are two more reading recommendations, the complete original run of Spider - Man 2099 and the original Spider - Girl series from the MC2.


Okay, with all of that out of the way I have to say that Into The Spider - Verse is a pretty decent film. Since I already knew that my two favorite spider characters were not in the film I didn´t have to worry about that and I can see why it won an Oscar for best animated feature film. There are a few nods to the comics throughout the movie and it even throws you a few curve balls like in the beginning when I thought : " Yes, this is the real Spider - Man. Why can´t we get that in the movies or the comic books. " If you haven´t seen the movie you might want to avoid the video below - although the maker of it made sure not to spoil more plot points than necessary - but I had to include it for those who might think I am the only one who thinks that Miles Morales is a very bland character and that there is not much that makes him that much different than Peter Parker.



Now as some may have seen in the blog header I also write about the translated versions of american comics - although sadly not as often as I would like to. But I mention it whenever the occassion arises and I have already written about the Superman stories that were created exclusively for the german market back when the Ehapa Verlag published Superman.

To boost sales they had a special insert with blue paper and black and white art ( probably so that the comic creators in America didn´t have to color it ) and for these extra pages they needed additional material.


As someone whose family comes from Spain I have read a lot of spanish comic books where the content has been altered from the original american comics and in most cases they did their own covers in Spain.


I also read a few mexican comics when a mexican publishing company got the rights for a lot of DC comics including Superman. What I never knew is that Gwen Stacy was so popular in Mexico that the publisher who had the rights for Amazing Spider - Man had her marrying Peter Parker and that they produced a lot of additional content because they wanted to hold off publishing the issue in which Gwen Stacy was killed as long as possible.



Speaking of stunning blondes, I have mentioned Busenwunder Oana Andoni from romanian tv station Pro Tv a few times and for those who want to know how I became aware of her I explained it at length in this post . Anyway, it has been a long time since I wrote about her because I always wanted to do a follow up post but then all the videos with her I had bookmarked on YouTube were deleted so it made no sense to do it.


Another reason why I never made the follow up post is that there is not much information about the meg busty Oana Andoni especially in regards to her breast size. This must be a thing with hot news casters since she is not the only one where finding some information is almost impossible.


What I can say is that she was born on the 28th of February in 1978 which makes her 40 years now. 40 is also probably her cup size, 40DD or 40E in the least. In her case the term melons is right on spot. You can find a biography here but for some reason my google translate function doesn´t work so if anybody out there wants to lend a helping hand and translate it it would be much appreciated. When I didn´t need it google translate was constantly going off but now that I really could use it it doesn´t work anymore. What you can peruse without any translations is this link to a gallery with some pictures of Oana Andoni and at least she is on facebook.


What I still remember from when google translate worked is that there was a big scandal in 2016 because Oana wore a very transparent shirt during a live newscast - or what ever you call the piece of clothing that tries in vain to cover up Oana´s gigantic double airbags - and so the audience could see more than usual ( sorry, I haven´t found that clip yet ) which surely made for excellent ratings. I don´t know what they are complaining about since this is exactly what every male viewer was praying for years.


I know that I promised to keep posting the new videos I found with Oana until I had them all on the blog but as always a few things came up and so the last time I included a batch was at the end of December. As a birthday present here are the breast ones I have not posted yet and I hope I can post the next ones pretty soon because I still have a lot of them left.







I thought about how to end this post and what could be more appropriate than german rock´n roll group Spider Murphy Gang ? They still have a lot of fans and are giving concerts throughout the year touring now and then.



New to the blog ? Everything you need to know about TALES FROM THE KRYPTONIAN : top ten posts / more posts of interest / best of the best


Don´t watch the mouth. Watch the hands.

It´s Mon - El Monday with Greg Larocque !

I know that Greg LaRocque´s 65th anniversary was Yesterday and not Today but which better way is there to start a new week after a disappointing Oscar night than with the Legion of Super - Heroes ?


Now I was tempted to make this week LEGION OF SUPER - HEROES WEEK as this is the second post about one of the best comic book series - EVER - conceived that I am preparing but the first one that is going on the blog.

The first one was in honor of Tom Peyer who celebrated his 65th birthday just the day before Greg Larocque. His name may not appear on a lot of best comic writers lists but he wrote a lot of books with the Legion of Super - Heroes during what is affectionately - and by some fans not so affectionately - called the Threeboot Legion as well as some of the ancillary titles like L.E.G.I.O.N. 93 or R.E.B.E.L.S. 94 which I enjoyed.


I did a special post for Tom Peyer in 2017 but I skipped his birthday last year in favor of another post in tribute of writer Doug Moench whose birthday is on the same day. Even if it did get postponed until Mike Zeck´s birthday the following month . By the way, I´m not going to include all the links for my posts about Doug Moench´s brilliant SHANG - CHI, MASTER OF KUNG FU series or his work on the Batman titles with comic maestro Gene Colan since I plan to do another spotlight post for Doug Moench very soon.


Coming back to Doug Moench, since I had covered the Batman stuff at least twice my idea was to make another post about SHANG - CHI, MASTER OF KUNG FU since you never can have enough art from that brilliant series.


Also since the complete series is now available in omnibus hardcovers PLUS the first Epic Collection ( something I never thought would happen during my lifetime ) it has gotten some of the recognition it deserves so maybe a few of the newer readers might be interested in it. The only problem was that I had already done separate posts for the three great artists who worked on the series : Paul Gulacy, Mike Zeck and Gene Day.


So I wasn´t sure what I should make the post about this time. Usually I have a lot of leftover art I don´t get to put into my posts where I have already gotten the color pages that go with the original art but in this case there are a lot of original art pages from all artists where I have to look for them so making the Tom Peyer post would be easier in any case.


Or so you might think. To add another wrinkle I didn´t want to make it just about one of the many series he wrote so finding the right mix was a bit difficult. And since he worked on the Threeboot Legion and Alan Davis did a lot of the covers I was sorely tempted to do a post mainly with his art but decided against it. Because I have finally enough high quality material for an Alan Davis Legion of Super - Heroes post so I am only going to include one or maybe two original Alan Davis covers in the Tom Peyer post and only pieces where I got a second version of much better quality.


Now we come to the part where the Tom Peyer post almost got finished.

As explained I had all the art selected and I was all set to go BUT it was Oscar night. I´m not sure if I followed the Oscar´s telecast live last year but I remember that it was probably the worst Oscar´s I have seen so far. Last year´s Golden Globes were similarly dreadful but this year´s Golden Globes were not that bad so I decided to give the Oscars another chance.


Initially I thought that I could start posting before the main show and continue during the commercial breaks but they were just too short and I didn´t want to be going from my laptop to the tv and miss the best parts.


Which pushed the Tom Peyer post back another day and when I saw that that day it would have been Greg LaRocque´s birthday anyway I decided the Tom Peyer post was already so late that another few days wouldn´t matter. Plus while I have done a plethora of FLASH FRIDAY posts in the past ( for a long time it used to be a regular feature on the blog which is one of the reasons why I am not including links for all those posts either ) I have only done one FLASH FRIDAY post for Greg Larocque . Although it is about issue 54 Nobody Dies which is arguably the best issue of this run.


To bring this to an end - as you are probably already bored and anxious to get to the part with the Greg LaRocque art - since I had already done a post of one of his most famous runs I wanted to switch things up for this year and do one about the other book he is best known for. And the fact that the book is the LEGION OF SUPER - HEROES did not hurt much either.


The only problem with that was that I did not have enough material for a post about Greg LaRocque´s run on the LEGION OF SUPER - HEROES. I did have around a dozen pages but for a full post I needed a bit more. I found more than enough material online and so I decided to save some of it for special spotlights on Brainiac 5, Dreamgirl and another Legionnaire that I won´t mention because it ties into the mystery surrounding Sensor Girl.


For those who have already read the story her identity is no secret but since I don´t want to spoil it for the others I only included some pages with her in this post so that I can keep the big reveal for another post.


For those who don´t know : Sensor Girl was a new member whose identity - or super powers - nobody knew. She was recommended by Saturn Girl, one of the three founding members of the Legion, and for the longest time the readers as well as various members of the Legion tried to find out her identity. Brainiac 5 hypothesized she might be Supergirl or a clone of Supergirl under the control of the time trapper but a big part of that might have been that he wanted it to be Supergirl. Because that way she could have survived the fateful events of CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS.


In any case this is the part of the Legion I did not read on a regular basis and I only have scattered issues. I came to this story after it happened and I learned her identity before I could read it all. Be that as it may I don´t want to spoil the surprise. At least not until my next Legion post.


It´s once again time to fire up our Legion time bubble and do a little time traveling of our own even if we don´t head 1,000 years into the future.

No, compared to that we are just going to do a little time jump backwards looking up those Days of Births Past that we have missed since our last get together but visited in earlier years. Our first stop is February the 22nd and the late Reed Crandall known for two things, one of them being one of the contributors to the classic EC horror comics like Tales From The Crypt, The Vault Of Horror and The Haunt Of Fear. You know that with a blog name like Tales From The Kryptonian I just have to mention him.


While Reed Crandall worked alongside such contemporaries like Jack Davis, Johnny Craig, Graham Ingels, George Evans or Jack Kamen for some reason I don´t have much art by him which is why the post I wrote about him last year was about the other comic book he is known for : Quality Comics Blackhawk. Which most people associate with DC Comics. But the fighting force of World War II was originally a property of Quality Comics that was acquired by DC Comics along with Plastic Man, Doll Man or the Phantom Lady - about which you can read more in said post I linked to above.


I always planned to do a special follow up post with Reed Crandall´s work for such classic black and white magazines like Creepy, Eerie, Vampirella or The Twilight Zone but as usual I never got around to do it. To make up for that here is a video about The Importance Of Reed Crandall To Comic Book History by Alex Grand and you can find the full text on this page .



From cult horror comics we come to a literal cult siren that would have had no problem serving as " troop entertainment " during World War II : Jeanette " Schnuckelchen " Biedermann who turned 39. She is one of Germany´s most popular and most desired singers / actresses thanks to her stunning physique which she displayed in various magazine shoots ( no PLAYBOY pics so far ) and her proneness to skimpy outfits on and off stage which has led to a number of wardrobe malfunctions that would´ve made professionals like Janet " best body in showbiz " Jackson quit her career.


Janette only took them with a shrug and a smile since she has been on stage since she was six and those wardrobe malfunctions have only furthered her career. In fact one of the reasons why she is so popular is that she has often provided the highlights of those unbearable celebrity wannabe shows with her - sometimes - unintentional revelation of body parts which is the reason why she gets constantly invited to those shows.

It´s one of the reasons why she is the number one sexbomb germans want to have sex with in polls before MILF Sonya Kraus , Boobara Schöneberge or Verona Pooth and she was also voted " Woman of the Year " twice ( in 2003 and 2005 ) in the german edition of FHM. In 2006 she even won the category " Sexiest Woman in the World ". Jeanette even got the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany but I think for other reasons.


She´s also one of the few who has successfully made the transition from singing to acting and back. On one of the worst german soaps - which is also one of the most popular - Gute Zeiten Schlechte Zeiten ( good times bad times ) she played the role of Marie Bälzer from June 1999 to March 2004. She also did the voice of Susan in the german version of an episode of South Park and some other animation voices like in Over The Hedge.

From August 2008 until April 2010 she graced german tv screens as Anna Polauke, the main character of the telenovela Anna und die Liebe ( Anna and the love ? ) as well as appearing in various movies of which Callgirl Undercover ( or Lizzie und der Kommissar depending on which tv station is showing it ) stands apart from the rest if only for the few moments when she shows what she could really do with her huge porn star boobs.


Speaking of her music career, she has won lots of awards like the ECHO, the OTTO, Top of the Pops Award and her albums have gone three times gold and once platinum. She first went with a sexy image and she quickly became known as the german queen of fan service what you could see in her music videos which culminated in the music video to Rock My Life. I remember staying up after midnight many times to catch the short bits of Janette Bidermann taking a shower in a bathtub and tape it with the vcr.


Sci fi cult siren Jeri Ryan celebrated her 51st birthday who played the inflatable DD Borg playmate with the big melons and a skin tight bodysuit sexborg Sex With Nine on the otherwise forgettable Star Trek : Voyager.

 
I´m sure there were thousand of Star Trek fans who wanted to be ass - imilated by her. Or better tit - imilated by this bodacious Borg sex drone.


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 ).


Jeri tried her best to make us forget the shortcomings of the writing but couldn´t compensate for a plethora of always darker bodysuits that tried to hide her porn star physique. And you can read more about the sexy sci fi sexbombs of Star Trek in my latest Star Trek cult sirens spin - off post .


Speaking of sexy sci fi cult sirens, someone who has worked with one of the best is Kyle MacLachlan who turned 60. He has been in everything from Twin Peaks to Desperate Housewives and Marvel´s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. but the reason why I am mentioning his birthday in this post is that he also starred in a little sci fi movie from 1997 called The Hidden.


The film is still shown on tv mostly because of the raunchy striptease by Claudia Christian who is best known from another sci fi show, Babylon 5 by comic writer J. Michael Strazynski where she plays hot Commander Susan Ivanova. Although I doubt Claudia wore anything as skimpy as this on it.



We continue with the birthdays for February the 24th and inker Wade Von Grawbadger, not because he is the youngest but because his year of birth is unknown. He is best known for inking Tony Harris on Starman and Stuart Immonen on a plethora of books from New Avengers to All - New X - Men.


Concerning the latter one, I always planned on doing a full post on All New X - Men because it was one of the few series at Marvel, I mean Disney you could still read as a newcomer and the only x - book that made any sense.

But then the powers to be - or just Bendis since they were never clear at this - decided to turn Iceman gay and I wrote three posts about that in which I also covered most of what I had to say about the series. There was my first post about the whole thing , a second post that was basically a re - post with a few things added and a third post asking what the frag happened to that fantastic story that Bendis wanted to tell for which it was absolutely necessary to turn Iceman gay. Does anybody out there remember if we got this epic story for which they completely ruined this character ? I mean we have all heard about the Iceman Is Now Gay thing so you might expect that they made at least as much of a noise to announce that story of the century. In any case, I still have a ton of un - posted art.


I always give out reading recommendations and you might think I would not give one for All New X - Men but as long as Stuart Immonen and Wade Von Grawbadger are on the title it´s all good. You can read more about the high points of the series in the links above and the whole gay thing does not happen until Mahmud Asrar becomes the regular penciler. I should have know things were going to be fishy when they started putting such lame, cheap knock off characters as Miles Morales and X 23 on the team.


As for our power couples work on the Avenger books I would say all the issues of New Avengers they worked on are good but there is one tip for those who want to get the issues now. There is a hardcover with the first six issues of the second volume that you can get between 20 and 25 bucks but instead of that you should buy the Avengers by Brian Michael Bendis : Heroic Age hardcover which not only includes the first six issues of the second volume of New Avengers but also the first six issues of Avengers by John Romita Jr. and the five issue mini series Avengers Prime with gorgeous art by Alan Davis. And what is the kicker is you can find it as cheap as 19 bucks or less which is a real steal at a whopping 440 pages.


What you should avoid at all costs is the main story of Fear Itself. That was one of the worst crossover events and unless you only buy it for the art of Stuart Immonen and Wade Von Grawbadger it´s really not worth it.   


Going on we DO know Sophie Howard´s year of birth so it´s pretty safe to say that she turned 36. The mega busty page 3 girl started her career as a stripper at the age of 17 and was once named as having Britain´s Best Boobs. Last year I made a joke about the fact that there is no picture on her imdb entry and that as a former glamour model ( whatever that may be ) with the stunning measurements of 38G - 26 - 34 all the pictures of her the staff had were from magazines such as Maxim, Nuts or Loaded and emphasized other parts of her body and not her face. Well, this year there still is no picture on her imdb entry so maybe they want to use this one.


Billy Zane celebrated his 53rd birthday who was on season 7 of Charmed with the sultry Alyssa Milano , in the episode Well Cooked Hams from the Tales from the Crypt tv series and Tales from the Crypt : Demon Knight.


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.

Coming back to Billy Zane he has some comic book creds as he also did the voice of Jason Blood / The Demon Etrigan on The New Batman Adventures and portrayed Lee Falk´s The Phantom in a very underrated movie from 1996. There are a few reviews of the movie on YouTube but I chose this video because it has a lot of information about the original comic book.



Next we have Playmate of the Month April in 1986, Teri Weigel who turned 57. Because of Teri´s perplexing physique and her protruding torpedo shaped sweater puppies she became quite popular and was in a few specials from PLAYBOY. She also was one of the few playmates who also appeared in PENTHOUSE although not as a Pet of the Month. She was just everywhere during the 80s. She later had her breasts enlarged and did porn but she looked best in her appearances on Married with Children.


What I completely brainfart on is Teri also appeared in Baywatch ( she is topless in the pilot episode although that part can sometimes be censored ), Predator 2 and Savage Beach by Andy Sidaris. Fun fact : Teri Weigel and Carolyn Liu both were in PLAYBOY´s Sexy Lingerie 3 and both appeared in Andy Sidaris movies but not together. Carolyn Liu is also very well known in Germany amongst people of my generation since she took her clothes off on Tutti Frutti with Power Girl Monique Sluyter as did Sandra Wild, a blonde sexbomb with giant breasts who also was in an Andy Sidaris movie.


But the blow up sex doll from the Netherlands was not only in PLAYBOY multiple times she also was a big factor in my obsession on blondes with giant breast like Power Girl with her impersonation of Marilyn Monroe .


Regular readers of this blog already know that I cast her as Fire a.k.a. Beatriz da Costa in the Andy Sidaris Special of my popular Casting the Justice League of America movie series and I also kept mentioning her in all kind of post like the annual re - posts about italian mega soccer MILF Simona Ventura until I decided to give Monique and the Tutti Frutti girls their own post which I re - posted in 2016 in a new and better version.


And we are staying in the 90s as one of Mtv´s best vjs EVER Ray Cokes celebrated his 61st birthday. Here is a video from the time when Mtv still played music videos most of the time and Most Wanted was must see tv.



Speaking about must see tv, Edward James Olmos who turned 72 is best known to Today´s television audiences from shows like Marvel´s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. or Battlestar Galactica but for me he will always be the silent and charismatic Lieutenant Castillo from Miami Vice. No offense, but one of the things that always bugged me on the rebooted Battlestar Galactica series was the idea that the humans created the cylons. Although it would explain why two of the models were such hot sexbombs like Tricia Helfer and Grace Park. On the other side the cylons would never had to go to war against the humans because if you have an unlimited amount of copies of Tricia Helfer and Grace Park there is no male human who can resist you. I guess those toasters were still lacking in basic knowledge about humans.


Because there was an episode of Third Rock From The Sun where they tried to gain control of the world´s governments by sending in a squad of women who all looked like hot swimsuit models and when you have seen this episode and know that the toasters on Galactica have hot models like Tricia Helfer and Grace Park it makes the whole war against humanity and death to humans and violence thing seem unnecessary and over the top.


Speaking about Grace Park, right now they are showing the episodes of Hawaii Five - O without her and Daniel Dae Kim in Germany. And I have really tried to give the new team a chance but it´s just not the same.


Usually I don´t go for skinny chicks but I would love to get Grace Park on the casting couch for a long weekend auditioning for Nymphomanic Ex - Nun With A Lot Of Sexual Catching Up To Do. She got the whole asian persuasion thing going for her and I don´t want to use racial stereotypes but asian girls really do have the best bubblebutts in the world. I doubt there is any male alive who can resist Grace Park wiggling her whotsit.


When I was still in school we used to call girls with a body like Grace a carpenter´s wet dream : flat like a board but really a lot of fun to nail.


Coming back to James Edward Olmos here is The Nightingale from Faerie Tale Theater which also features Mako who played the wizard in the first Conan movie with Arnold and who has been in a gazillion martial arts movies including Sidekicks with Chuck Norris one of my guilty pleasures.



Another birthday shoutout goes to the great late Ricardo Rinaldi who has left a footprint in the german comic scene not only through his work for the Kauka Verlag on series like Fix und Foxi and Die Pichelsteiner ( the last one was especially popular because of curvy cave woman Petra ) but also as one of the founders of the International Comic Salon Erlangen in 1984. 


Today we also have an Andy Sidaris related anniversary. Penthouse Pet Samatha Phillips who played Samatha Maxx, the blonde with the high squirt factor in The Dallas Connection ( a.k.a. Deadworks ) and holds the record for getting her pictures published in the most countries turned 53.

https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmgqWYQ14Tpye-D2gK9YZcDE2t7BHtx_2nnqRv6DwaYK5Utit3Fh1pViaiFjMFXB5tUavsrm82Vq8yxocsjrgtpj9VgbGv7yXAfzt61sKH-5jxOEuIDzuWKm9-xNlj449CvQGR/s1600/samantha+phillips3.gif

Well - rounded in more than just the physical sense, Sam is a woman for the new millenium : she´s ambitious and she´s busy and not above using her spectacular naked body as fame currency. Sam has been a member of an all girl rock group, The Lykettes, a talk show host, a reality tv host, radio DJ, a spokesmodel, she has hosted any kind of show that exists on the planet and she became a pop icon as one of the most sought after models of the 80s. However the walking blow up sex doll template reaped the greatest exposure in the realm of sexploitation quickie flicks thanks to her rack - tastic 34D - 26 - 35 measurements and is famous for producing the Busty Cops movie series starring all of her buxom centerfold friends.


Sadly she was only in one Andy Sidaris movie but you can see her naked in classics like Hot Springs Hotel, Passion Cove, Bedtime Stories, Fallen Angel, The Regina Pierce Affair, Passion´s Obsession and Sexual Malice.



Andy Sidaris was probably THE BEST director of action movies for adults and his cast read like a WHOS´S WHO of playmates : Roberta Vasquez , Ava Cadell , brunette Cynthia Brimhall, Dona Speir , Pandora Peaks , Julie Strain , Shae Marks, Samantha Phillips and Julie K. Smith to name just a few.


Usually I just copy / paste the part about Becky Mullen into the posts but I am trying to keep this one short so I will skip it. For those who haven´t read my previous Andy Sidaris posts there is the Ava Cadell solo post , the Dona Speir post ( with re - posts in 2017 and in 2018 ), the Sybil Danning post and the Becky Mullen post ( which I reposted in 2016 ) where you can find tons of links to other cult sirens like Janet Jones Gretzky and real live Power Girl Leslie Easterbrook who had her breast scene in Police Academy 4 - Citizens On Patrol where she emerges from a pool in a wet t - shirt .


Because I mentioned the Oscars - something that won´t happen until next year - I want to include this video that shows why the delegation from german tv got to interview so few of the celebrities. They have to up the ante if they are right next to Guillermo giving out free shots of Tequila.



From all the movies Kylie Minoque has been in Street Fighter is probably the most notorious one but if the Andy Sidaris movies - and Malibu Express in particular - have taught me anything it is that sometimes a movie that is not as good as others or that is considered trash by a lot of people can be more entertaining than a movie that has won an Oscar.



Closing things out for Today is another cartoon that I used to watch a lot in my younger years. Also with the spy theme it fits with Andy Sidaris.
