Hard Copy: Guardian of Fukushima Graphic Novel from Tokyo POP
On March 11, 2011, a 9.1 magnitude earthquake
struck off of the coast of Japan. The epicenter for this quake was just off the coast of Honshu (the largest island of Japan) and it was determined that this was the largest earthquake to ever hit Japan. The subsequent tidal wave measured at 55.88 meters (a little over 183 feet). The quake and the tsunami took the lives of 15,950 people. The earthquake and tsunami were just the beginning; Fukushima’s nuclear power plant was also damaged. Eventually three of the reactors went into meltdown, irradiating the air, ground, and water.

Vids: Newly-Remastered “Max Fleischer’s Superman 1941-1943” comes to Digital & Blu-ray on 5/16/23
Warner Bros. Discovery has meticulously 
remastered Max Fleischer’s treasured set of 17 animated Superman shorts from the original 35mm source elements. Max Fleischer’s Superman 1941-1943 will be available to purchase Digitally on HD and on Blu-ray May 16, 2023.
Superman made his comic book debut in 1938, appearing in Action Comics #1 (dated June 1938, but officially published on April 18, 1938), and the Man of Steel’s popularity grew with his subsequent radio program. Max Fleischer gave the world’s first Super Hero his initial animated spotlight, producing 17 theatrical animated shorts from September 1941 to July 1943 that further elevated the character’s profile, and added many significant aspects to his canon – including coining many of Superman’s patented catchphrases and attributes.

Factory Entertainment, purveyors of pristine 
pop culture products, has done it again. Factory Entertainment has produced a pair of pins from Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Technically, it is only one pin and a replica of the Ilia probe’s sensor, but I am enjoying the alliteration. This prop replica set commemorates the Enterprise’s first foray onto the big screen.
