Comic Reviews by Walt

Yesterday was my first foray into the Super-Blog Team Up, invited in by fellow blogger Chris Sheehan (of Chris is on Infinite Earths).

I had a blast working on my contribution, looking at The Death of the Mighty Mutanimals, and sharing my history with the Mutanimals, and how that all came together.

It was also probably the most prep-work I’ve done for any single writing project since my grad school days.

And while right now it’s two posts, two days in a row…I wanted to post again with links to the rest of the Super-Blog Team-Up from this outing.

#RIPSBTU, #SBTU, #SuperBlogTeamUp

• Chris is on infinite Earths: Death Of Supergirl
• Crapbox Son Of Chthulu : Death Of My Love For Marvel Comics
• In My Not So Humble Opinion: The Death Of Galactus
• Longbox Graveyard: Death Of Captain Marvel
• Between The Pages: I Have Been and Always Shall Be Your Friend
• Coffee and Comics: Superman: The Man Who Murdered The World
• Superhero Satellite: Death of a Collectors Passion. A redemption story
• Retroist: These Pirates Of The Caribbean Models are to die for!

I also recently (finally!!) managed to find the newest Usagi Yojimbo action figure, part of the Tales of the TMNT re-branding of Nickelodeon‘s series that’s been running since 2012!

Above–"classic" Usagi from the ’80s line; Usagi from the 2003 line; and "current" or "modern" Usagi fresh off a peg.

It’s a sort of relief to finally have found the figure, after weeks of too-frequent stops in Targets and Walmarts and venturing to further-away locations, and same for Toys R Us and such, hoping to find the figure.

Now I can sit back and not "worry" about finding it or "missing out" if the figures suddenly disappear from stores with the animated series ending.

Posing the figures for the photo with a fairly intentional background also reminds me that there are three more volumes of The Usagi Yojimbo Saga I want; though I’ve yet to make the time to actually sit down and read any of them yet.

Perhaps I’ll get into more on stuff later.
