This week’s pull list has lots to entertain, so thanks to Kirk at West End Comics as always, and he had my new Orphan Black Rachael Duncan Funko figure for me! Captain America: White (Marvel) issue 1, written and art by Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale, colors by Dave Stewart and letters by Richard Starkings….

Star Wars: Aftermath (2015) – Chuck Wendig
The Journey to The Force Awakens continues… we’ve had the first issue of the comic, and now comes the new novel, set in the newly established timeline, which sadly jettisoned some of the great stories that created the Expanded Universe that have been in place for over two decades. Aftermath picks up a few…
Issues Vol. 16
It’s that time of the week again, and Kirk had everything set aside for me, and ready to go, including the new Star Wars (!!!) title, Shattered Empire. So, as always, I was quite happy to pop into what has fast become my favorite comic stop, West End Comics. So let’s dig in and see…
Issues Vol. 13
It’s a smaller week for the West End Comics pull list, but Kirk made sure to recommend a new title to me, and anyway, in just a couple of weeks, there will be a whole new Star Wars title, filling in some of the space between Jedi and Awakens… EXCITING TIMES! Welcome Back (Boom…
Issues Vol. 12a
Kirk is on well-earned vacation with his family this week, but the comics at West End Comics keep on coming! So it was with great excitement that I dug into this week’s pull list, though it was rather smaller than my usual haul, it was still food with great stuff!! Escape From New York (Boom…

Air Force One (1997) – Wolfgang Petersen
Wolfgang Petersen is back on the 101 Action Movies list, and this time he’s joined forces with Harrison Ford, who portrays U.S. President James Marshall. It’s a fun film, with a few plot holes but with a standout cast including Gary Oldman, Glenn Close, Dean Stockwell, Xander Berkeley, William H. Macy, and Wendy Crewson….
Star Wars: Episode VI – The Return of the Jedi (1983) – Richard Marquand
This, of course, is yet another one of those movies that stays with me, I can remember where I was when I saw it, who I saw it with, and all the excitement that sprung up around it, filling my young life with, to that point, unparalleled excitement! George Lucas’ original trilogy comes to an end…
V – 30 Years On
The Visitors arrived 30 years ago this week. Kenneth Johnson’s aliens who came to earth posing as our friends while hiding not only a horrible appearance but an equally terrifying agenda premiered with the original mini-series V. The sad thing is, I wasn’t allowed to stay up and watch all of it, and we certainly…
Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back (1980) – Irvin Kershner
Oh yeah, the 101 Sci-Fi Movies is kicking into high gear now, with lots of familiar titles (heck I own a good percentage of them from here on out) so this should be a lot of fun! 1980, I was still living in Borden, Ontario and that was where I first saw The Empire Strikes…
