Goodbye Germany : at the Wild Wild West !

With nine posts still unfinished I should put all my energy on wrapping those up but at the same time I have been adding so many western related videos to those posts that I thought, why not make a spin - off post with some of these videos which might be quicker in the long run ?

Also it´s a good opportunity to continue my GOODBYE GERMANY series .

Now this is not the first time I am writing about western comics on this blog since I covered everything from DC Comics´ JONAH HEX to german western comics from my misspent youth , Jean Giraud a.k.a. Moebius BLUEBERRY , Landrömer´s KAUBOI UND KAKTUS , the many times Marvel Comics changed the original Ghost Rider´s name , Karl May´s WINNETOU , Gil Kane´s western comicbook covers , Gardner Fox´ western comicbook covers , Harvey Comics´ BLACK CAT , my post about Matt Wagner´s ZORRO and also the WILD WILD WEST movie with Will Smith in my cult siren post´s about all natural 36E ( !!! ) - 25 - 37 supreme blow up sex doll Salma Hayek .

Before we get to my usual mix of pop cultural relevant stuff, curvy cult sirens and personal favorites I have to mention a celebrity birthday that I forgot to include in my last post. Granted, since coming to Spain I have only been able to insert the anniversaries of notice sporadically but I have to mention blond Busenwunder Patricia Arquette who celebrated her 54th birthday on April the 8th. Thankfully this often overlooked brabuster nixed her plans to become a nun since she has won various awards during her career including one Oscar, three Golden Globes, two Primetime Emmy Awards, two Screen Actor Guild Awards and a British Academy Film Award.

Patricia is a hot mix of French - Canadian, Swiss, German, Jewish, English, Scottish, Irish, Welsh and Russian and when you see her all natural 38D ( !!! ) - 28 - 36 measurements you know why she was one of my first candidates in my SEARCH FOR POWER GIRL series. Although I never got to write that post. Or mention her on this blog which is why I had to include her Today.

Now usually when I include a top 5 of the best videos I start with the number 5 and work my way through to the best one but somehow things got a bit mixed up so we start with the best and then get to the rest.

Coming to the topic of Today´s post, we start with a few reading recommendations for those who have read and enjoyed LUCKY LUKE.

Not really a reading recommendation since I don´t know if I would enjoy it as much without the huge nostalgia factor but I just had to include a video about one of my favorite western series as a kid : BESSY, not Lassie.

Speaking of favorite western series, here is proof that even I don´t know everything : I thought that Winnetoonz was the first animated adaption of Winnetou but it seems there was an even earlier one. Does anybody know more about it ? The animation looks like Lou Scheimer´s Filmation.

Apropos Winnetou, Lex Barker really has done it all : Old Shatterhand, Kara Ben Nemsi Effendi, Tarzan, pirate, FBI agent and even outlaw Robin Hood.

I couldn´t include this in my - still unfinished - MASK OF THE ZORRO MONDAY WITH MATT WAGNER post because it already had a video with an anlysis of the movie. I try to avoid having two similar videos in one post.

This video serves two purposes : firstable it is a musical introduction to the next part of the bonus section but I also want to show a bit of love and moral support to Will Smith. I´m probably the only person on the planet who has not seen the Oscars since they don´t show them in Spain but what they have shown on every channel is what happened between Will Smith and Chris Rock. Which I refuse to comment until I have seen the Oscars. Whatever happened - justified or not - in my opinion most people forget too quickly what a great singer, musician and actor Will Smith is who has kept us entertained with his great performances for decades.

I have found quite a few episodes from the original WILD WILD WEST tv show on YouTube but as a comicbook fan I had to go with the one which has the original Batgirl 37C - 23 - 36 cult siren Yvonne Craig as a guest star.

Here´s the lovely Yvonne working on her tan in a clip from The Man from U.N.C.L.E. And before you go through your DVD collection this is from ONE SPY TOO MANY, a feature film version of the tv show that combined both The Alexander the Greater Affair episodes. The subplot and footage with Yvonne Craig was just shot for the film and did NOT appear on television.

You can also see the full clip - as well as many more with Yvonne Craig on such shows like STAR TREK or MY FAVORITE MARTIAN - on this website .

Coming from the WILD WILD WEST tv show to the 1999 movie, a big part of the pull of the film was ultimate latin blow up sex doll Salma Hayek who didn´t have a sexy table dance scene like in FROM DUSK TO DAWN but apart from that wore ..... let´s face it : not too much clothing. At least in her first scenes, later on she wore a lot of fabric. I guess they needed some spicy clips for the trailer so they could get the moviegoers money.

I mean what´s the deal with designing such an lingerie outfit for Salma Hayek and then covering her up for most of the movie ? I´m not saying that well endowed actresses have to be naked all the time. They can wear something for five minutes and get naked later on which is more sexy.

No, really, in my opinion if you have an actress with a stunning physique than you have to use that if you are a good director. And you seize the opportunity if you have an oscar - winning actor like Mickey Rourke in a movie instead of giving Dennis Rodman more screentime because you want to be his buddy or you´re smoking weed together. Also I think it should be a rule in horror movies that female characters only die after they have been naked. You might think this IS a rule - especially if you have seen the SCREAM saga - but it isn´t. Trust me, I have seen dozens of horror movies were whole squads of hot, nubile chicks met their end before undressing. What a waste. And it´s the same with Salma Hayek.

Back to WILD WILD WEST Salma Hayek does have some good scenes in the movie but ultimately she´s not a very likeable or sympathetic character because she plays the helpless damsel in distress the whole movie until the end when the old, decrepit " father " Will Smith and Kevin Kline have almost died to save turns out to her virile, potent and young husband.

It´s the part of the movie that bugs me the most. I guess it´s realistic that this sweet and hot looking massita is in reality a lying, scheming woman who seduces the heroes to get what she wants and doesn´t get her deserved upcommance but I don´t have to go to the movies for that.

According to internet sources the latin sex godess´ measurements are - all natural - 36E - 25 - 37 but here it looks to be much more. Anyway, at the moment Salma is married to a rich guy who just drowned her in expensive jewelery so you know what women really want. And you can find more pictures, videos and animated GIFs with Salma in my old cult siren posts .

You may have wondered why there was a giant mechanical spider in the movie and the answer to that is simple : producer Jon Peters put it in.

He was the producer along with director Sonnenfeld and in AN EVENING WITH KEVIN SMITH, Kevin Smith talked about working with Peters on a fifth potential SUPERMAN film in 1997, revealing that Peters had three demands for the script. The first demand was that Superman is not allowed to wear the suit, the second was that Superman not fly, and the third was to have Superman fight a giant spider in the third act. After Tim Burton came on board, Smith's script was tossed away and the film was never produced due to further complications. A year later, he noted that WILD WILD WEST was released with the inclusion of a giant mechanical spider in the final act. Neil Gaiman has also said that Jon Peters insisted a giant mechanical spider be included in a film adaptation of THE SANDMAN.

To keep the western theme going - and to post something about another sexbomb with black hair and a huge rack here´s the swedish techno / folk / bluegrass band REDNEX . The group was very popular in Germany in the 90s although I have to say that I really started to like the band as soon as new front woman Julie Anne Tulley a.k.a. Scarlett joined their line up.

Wikipedia says they´re mostly known for the hit song " Cotton Eye Joe " in 1994. Although extremely popular in Germany, where the band holds the record of most total weeks ( 25 ) at No.1 on the German singles chart over the past 30 years - scoring such hits as " Old Pop in an Oak ", " The Spirit of the Hawk ” and " Wish You Were Here " - " Cotton Eye Joe " remains Rednex's sole hit in the United States. Now the real reason the Rednex are so popular in Germany is Scarlett and her bouncing action fan service.

They had another front woman with big boobs before ( a blonde ) but they really became most popular when Scarlett joined in 2001. Because they did a lot of live gigs on tv and Scarlett really knows how to shake it.

She always puts some extra effort on making her boobies bounce as they often just jump up and down to the music. In one show ( I think it was called APRES SKI HITS ) Scarlett´s huge breasts where jumping up and down so wild they almost came up to her chin. And in this instance the cameraguy even filmed it which almost never happens on german tv.

Staying in Germany - since this is a GOODBYE GERMANY post - I like to throw one of these in once in a while : videos that don´t fall into my obligatory five categories ( comicbooks, movies, tv shows, cartoons and music ) but still ties in with the topic of the post. I couldn´t find an episode of Klassiker der Weltliteratur with a western author so instead here we have a documentary about the true history of the wild wild west.

We come to a less serious version of the wild west with Vierzig Wagen Westwärts ( Forty Wagons Westwards, original title The Hallelujah Trail, spanish title The Whiskey Battle ) one of my favorite western movies.

I don´t know if it´s my favorite western movie but it´s up there with James Garner´s Auch ein Sheriff braucht Mal Hilfe ( Support Your Local Sheriff ), Jane Fonda´s Cat Balou ( that red dress as Trixie, daiiiiiiimn ! ),

the Rio Bravo / El Dorado double feature ( since it is basically the same movie ) the Magnificent Seven two parter, Terence Hill´s My Name Is Nobody ( only the first part and only with the german dubbing because they added a ton of jokes ) and a few other Terence Hill and Bud Spencer western collaborations, Sergio Leone´s The Man With No Name / Dollar trilogy, all of the Winnetou movies especially Unter Geiern with a very young Götz George and german all natural 40B - 22 - 36 Busenwunder Elke Sommer plus a few 1980s / 1990s westerns like Silverado or Young Guns.

Anyway, it´s easily in the top five and I still watch it every time it´s on tv.

It took me quite some time to find the right versions with the best quality although I am not one hunded percent sure if I got the right ones since the german version is listed as 149 minutes long and the original US version as 165 minutes long while we only have a difference of 3 minutes here.

Nevertheless I wanted to include both versions so you can see - and hear - the differences. Speaking of which, I haven´t watched the entire original US version but from what I have seen so far there are two differences.

Firstable, in the US version Donald Pleasance character is just refered to as Oracle while in the german dubbing his name is Orakel Jones. Second, the original version seems a tad more serious as in the german dubbing they felt the need to have two narrators : one who tells what the narrator in the original version tells and a second one who throws in some witty remarks and jokes. This is a practice you will experience in a lot of german dubbed movies where the german distribution company felt the original version was not funny enough and add more jokes in the dubbing. I really can´t say if that´s a good thing or a bad thing - in the case of My Name Is Nobody I tried to watch the spanish version and I just couldn´t - since I am just too used to the german dubbing which makes me clearly biased.

Apropos dubbed versions, I already posted a german episode of Hoot Kloot or how it´s called in Germany Sheriff Donnerknall ( Sheriff Thundercrack ).

This wraps up the western part of Today´s post addendum but wait - there´s more. I know that there are people out there who don´t like westerns and probably skip this entire post but for those who still soldiered through here are a few more nuggets starting with another episode from the fine folks at Ayer Nomas about another cult tv show.

Speaking of tv shows, we continue with two videos that I couldn´t fit into my PATRICK DUFFY´S MAN FROM ATLANTIS post . First up we have Journey To The Bottom Of The Sea - or how it was called in Germany Die Seaview - In geheimer Mission ( The Seaview On Secret Mission ) from 1966, a show I never knew existed. Now I swear I did not plan this but there is also an episode with Yvonne Craig as a guest star ( episode 7 from the first season called Turn Back The Clock ) and if you´re wondering why I didn´t include it the reason is that I simply couldn´t find it on YouTube. 

The title of Journey To The Bottom Of The Sea was of course borrowed from the famous book with the same title from the father of modern science fiction so our second video is the 1978 tv movie Jules Verne - Adventure In Atlantis original title The Return Of Captain Nemo.

Closing things out for Today we have one of these incredibly rare once in a lifetime YouTube finds since I didn´t even know a Beatles cartoon existed.

This post will self - destruct in five seconds.

It´s Comic Masters Monday with Larry Welz

Going over my picture archive I have come across another comic creator whose date of birth is unknown which is why american underground cartoonist Larry Welz has never appeared in the birthday sections.

Another reason is that his most famous creation CHERRY POPTART - or simply CHERRY - is rather explicit in nature ( which is the reason why I had to exclude one of the pages from A NIGHT TO REMEMBER ). So even though I found some material from time to time I couldn´t always post it.

But now I have enough material that is SAFE FOR WORK for a proper post.

I don´t know exactly when I came across my first issue of CHERRY POPTART but it must have been during my earliest convention going days because I remember that I found an issue here or there. Back then adult comicbooks were a much bigger part of my reading diet due in big part that they were the hardest to come by. This way before there was an PREVIEWS ADULT catalogue so it was much more a case of hunting down those series.

One of the things that struck me early on about CHERRY POPTART was that while the art looked deceptively simple and loose some of the pages were meticulously rendered by artist Larry Welz with hundreds of little things crammed into every nook and cranny of the background. Another reason why I kept coming back to the series were of course the parodies of other comicbooks, movies or tv shows and I think my favorite ones were the X - MEN parody and THE LAND OF WOZ. I mean if you didn´t get to see your favorite comicbook characters having sex this was the next best thing.

Being a series that was printed only in black and white this will be a shorter post than your usual BLACK AND WHITE posts since there is no colored art to go with the original pages. I hope you like it nonetheless.  

In most of my comicbook related posts I like to include some movie casting so because there are too many busty blondes to choose from I am ignoring the usual suspects and going with natural born rumpshaker Nari, formerly a member of K - Pop band Wassup until they broke up in February last year.

Yes, I know I´m casting against her established race but Hollywood is doing it all the time so if we can have a black Nick Fury, a black Perry White and a female Starbuck why can´t we have a Cherry Poptart from South Korea ?

Even if we had to change her name to something more asian sounding like Cherry - Ohnegumi Popo - Tart with a big emphasis on the " popo " part.

Nari really puts the " pop " in " K - Pop " and if the saying is true that the way a woman moves on the dance floor is a preview of her performance in the bedroom the knockout from South Korea should have no problem pounding hard boners into submission with her perfect pelvis thrusts.

When the management of Wassup announced in 2013 that the goal of this new group would be to spread awareness of hip hop music and twerking they had no idea what an incredible buttshaker lay buried in little Nari.

Very soon she blew the other girls in the group away with her almost hypnotic lower body movements and her sexually charged performances have turned gay men straight and straight women into becoming lesbians.

Nari´s special talents naturally didn´t go unnoticed by the management and soon they began to bring fanboy dreams true by providing special short shorts for Nari´s live performances that were not only fitting like a second skin but at least two sizes too small so that they were constantly riding up exposing more and more of Nari´s perfectly shaped bubblebutt.

The double - jointed mega flexible nubile rubbergirl who goes by the nickname Paula Popovich in Poland, Chu Pamela LaPinga in Mexico, Culo Caliente in Spain, Ashley Analia in Great Britain, Derriere Doggystyle in France, Christina Arschguilera in Germany and Ultimate Twerkmachine in America  really knows how to work her butt although I fear she will thrust out her hip or pelvis sooner or later. It´s a strange sensation to get a boner and whiplash at the same time but I can´t stop staring at her butt.










Finding a video for independent comics is often difficult when the comic in question does not have the benefit of having been adapted into a tv show or movie or is one of the hip and trendy graphic novels. This goes doubly for any adult comics. So you can imagine my surprise when I not only found a video about Larry Welz Cherry Poptart but one about a possible connection to Archie Comics raunchy redhead Cheryl Blossom.



No matter how thoroughly I go over the birthday lists there always seems to be one or two I miss and in this case it´s Schlager starlet Michelle´s who celebrated her 48th anniversary on February the 15th. Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. I won´t pretend to be a diehard Michelle fan but she has the two breast reasons to watch Schlager shows - or at least her music videos - which she presented nude in the german PLAYBOY in April 2006.



I know, this looks like clickbait and I only clicked it because of the breast size of the woman in the preview pic but it´s really not what you expect. And it´s rather seldom that you find a channel with positive messages.



Since this is the third post Today I don´t have any birthdays to cover - except for Michelle - so I want to feature another underrated movie : Falling Down with Michael Douglas and Robert Duvall. It´s one of Michael Douglas best movies and I think he was robbed at the Oscars. The movie was far ahead of its time and still holds up. So if you haven´t seen it you might want to check it out and if you have seen it you might want to re - watch this. Also, can you believe this movie was made by Joel " let´s put nipples on Batman´s costume and turn Robin into Beavis " Schumacher ?



Keeping it in the family here is Kirk Douglas with the shanty ( or how do you call sailor songs ) Whale Of A Tale from the 1954 movie adaption of Jules Verne´s science fiction classic 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea.



Now I didn´t find the movie but I did find an almost 90 minutes long Making Of. The movie was produced for the Walt Disney Studios and directed by Richard Fleischer the son of Max Fleischer who did the famous Superman cartoons but also the animated feature film of Gulliver´s Travels I will include in my next post. It may seem like small potatoes to Today´s kids who grew up with movies that can transport any idea onto the movie screen but back then making this movie was a major endeavor. And not only because this was Walt Disney´s first non animated feature film.



I also found a made for tv movie starring Ben Cross - best known for Chariots Of Fire - and Richard Crenna - best known as Rambo´s Trautman.



To keep the underwater theme going I wanted to post an episode of Sealab 2020 - not only because it was one of my favorite cartoon shows but also because we now live in the year 2020 - but I could only find some original episodes in brazilian so here´s an episode of Adult Swim´s spoof.
