The Last Ronin: Review

 I've heard a lot about this comic and have wanted to read it for some time. I was finally able to borrow a copy and it's....ok.

The story takes place 15 years after Splinter and all but one of the turtles have been killed. The remaining brother (who I won't spoil for anyone who hasn't read this) is revealed at the end of issue #1 and isn't who you'd think it would be. 

Anyway, he teams up with an older April and her daughter to take down the grandson of Shredder and end the long standing feud between their clans once and for all. 

It's in essence, "The Dark Knight" for turtles fans. 

Now I didn't find this comic bad at all, I did find in uninspired. Way overrated considering all the praise I've heard heaped upon it. Turtles fans will probably love it, but my favorite "ending" to the turtles was when Eric Larson got the rights and finished off the regular series. 

But that's just me. If you're curious, go on and check it out. Like I said, it's not bad. 

Batman '66 animated films review

 I decided to watch the 2 animated movies they made from the original '66 series starring Adam West and Burt Ward. 

The first one is fun but not as good as I remember. 

However the second one is much better. William Shatner playing Two-Face was a good choice. 

The only thing that sucks is you can tell their voices have aged. Julie Newmar's voice is hardly recognizable in both movies. 

Though I love they brought back surviving actors to reprise their voices. 

With Adam West gone it's good they ended them here. 

Make way for baby #5

 Yep, we're having another one. 

Incredibly this time it is NOT twins. We don't know the gender yet but I'm pushing late 40s and find it wild I'll be closing in on 70 when this one graduates collage. 

Not a fun feeling. But It's the reason I'm getting in shape! So maybe I'll kick around a little longer to get to know them better. That and it being April 1st are the two biggest announcements for the day. 

By the way, this is one of my favorite times of the year, if you can't already tell that from previous posts. 

Have a good one folks!
