Equipment: Rocket Raccoon Fabrikation Coming from Funko
It seems to me that whenever there is “cute” creature in a movie or tel
evision show it is done to attract the kids. You saw this with the Ewoks in Return of the Jedi and Jar Jar Binks in The Phantom Menace; characters like this these make kids laugh. Having almost no knowledge about The Guardians of the Galaxy comics I thought that Rocket fell into that category, but I was wrong. Continue reading

Vids: Extended Clip from Guardians of the Galaxy
In a little over a week we will get to meet the Guardians of the G

E.V.A.: Taking a Ghost Tour at the Ohio State Reformatory
The Mansfield Reformatory is located in Mansfield Ohio at 100 R
eformatory Road. The Reformatory doors were opened to its first 150 young offenders in September 1896. After housing over 155,000 men in its lifetime, the doors to the prison closed December 31, 1990. The towering building is beautiful on the outside with at least 50 geese calling the front lawn and pond their home. They are eerily quiet for geese, moving quietly to their pond and back. We arrived around 7pm and waited with our tour guide, Scott and for the rest of the 16 people in our tour group. Scott informed us that the spirits had been pretty active lately and that he had heard voices that day when he was opening the doors and turning on lights in preparation for us. Continue reading
Equipment: Review of Harley Quinn and Captain Boomerang from DC Direct The New 52
The line between good and evil has become blurred over the years. Super
heroes like Superman live by a code. Their sense of morality does not allow them to stray off of the straight and narrow. Heroes like Batman do lean more toward the darkness, but bottom line; he does what he does for justice. Sometimes however the right “hero” for the job is a villain. That is when the call goes out to The Suicide Squad. The group is made up of incarcerated super-villains including Harley Quinn and Captain Boomerang and works for the government under the supervision of Amanda Waller. Continue reading
