Bits & Pieces

He's gonna CUT YA!

Dusty Plastic HELLside #18!

It’s been a while, but we’re back with some quick content in Dusty Plastic HELLside #18 — which is also the first of many Cyber Shredder appearances on Scary-Crayon. I don’t think Splinter’s too pleased about that…  (6/22/10)

It's a nice day for a white wedding.

Dusty Plastic HELLside #17!

Young love and dreams of parenthood surface amidst the gloom of Rapture in Dusty Plastic HELLside #17! I don’t think it’s a great place to raise kids, though… Splicers are even worse than NAMBLA members.  (4/6/10)

Distressed confusion!

THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON!!!

I wasn’t really into the Twilight series before I saw this movie, but The Twilight Saga: New Moon has truly made a fan of me. Keep reading to find out why this is a brilliant film — and the best vampire movie ever made.  (4/1/10)

A nightmarish layout indeed!

WELCOME TO CLOWN-CRAYON!!!

On April 1st, 2010, Scary-Crayon was seized by fiendish funsters and transformed into Clown-Crayon! Relive the horror wrought by Killjoy, Pennywise, Odd Bob, and other hellish harlequins on that terrifying day.  (4/1/10)

HE. IS. AI-YERN MAN!

Dusty Plastic HELLside #16!

It’s a case of mistaken identity in Dusty Plastic HELLside #16, as Iron Man encounters none other than Scarlett! But Scarlett who? And who’s inside that armor — Tony Stark or Robert Downey Jr.? This is quite confusing.  (3/26/10)

A master of the universe... and other things as well.

Dusty Plastic HELLside #15!

When the Most Powerful Man in the Universe comes to town, Skeletor’s forces hide in fear. However, evil isn’t the only thing in danger when He-Man’s around… as we see in Dusty Plastic HELLside #15.  (3/26/10)

Ancient Rome is a far cry from Corinth.

Dusty Plastic HELLside #14!

“Get in gear” takes on new meaning as Eka Darville — the RPM Red Ranger — assumes the role of a gay slave in “Spartacus: Blood and Sand.” Beware of spoilers: his fate is revealed in Dusty Plastic HELLside #14.  (3/9/10)

O noez, teh childrenz!!!

Dusty Plastic HELLside #13!

Watch out: Miss Sarah Jane Smith is back again and on the prowl! Is she searching for blue police boxes? Busting alien scum? Or engaging in acts decidedly less heroic? Fnd out in Dusty Plastic HELLside #13!  (2/19/10)

Red wings are awesome, but this story is terrible.

THE UNLOVED LITTLE RABBIT.

There are a lot of great, instructive children’s stories — but The Little Rabbit Who Wanted Red Wings is not one of them. In this summary review, Wes points out just what’s wrong with this tale… and offers a new ending.  (1/31/10)

She is SHE-RA! Sometimes.

Dusty Plastic HELLside #12!

For the honor of Grayskull, she is She-Ra! Well, she’s still Adora in this comic, but that’s beside the point. In Dusty Plastic HELLside #12, the Princess of Power finds herself faced with the Strongest Woman in the World.  (1/31/10)

Parting is such sweet sorrow...

SAY IT AIN’T SO, SARAH JANE!!!

Her younger days were full of funky fashion fun, but Sarah Jane’s found a common look in her old age. In the Sarah Jane Smith Fashionista Fever! finale, Mickey Glitter gives us one last tour of Miss Smith’s wardrobe.  (1/25/10)

You're doing it wrong, Dug!

FEEL THE PAIN OF BODY BLOWS!

Once again, Scary-Crayon returns to the forgotten days of DOS gaming for a look at the “classic” fighting game Body Blows. Alas, “classic” is in quotation marks because this game — despite its strengths — is pretty bad.  (1/25/10)

Whoa... you'd think those coins had naked lioness hybrid things on them or something.

BUMBLELION IS IN THE MONEY!!!

In this summary review of the “Wuzzles” episode “In the Money”, we see how wealth can transform a likeable guy into a total jerk. We also see how disturbingly messed up the land of Wuz and its inhabitants are.  (1/25/10)

Big and powerful, they fill their foes with dread...

Dusty Plastic HELLside #11!

Look out! Those menacing Triceratons are back in Dusty Plastic HELLside #11, but this time their target isn’t the Federation or the Ninja Turtles. No, today they’ve set their sights on someone far more stylish.  (1/25/10)

Helloooooo undead nurse!

Alice Cullen is one hot dead girl.

We’re not big on the Twilight series here at Scary-Crayon, but we always appreciate a sexy goth girl in miniature! And while the media that spawned her sucks, the New Moon Alice Cullen is an attractive figure indeed.  (1/21/10)

She's 19 years old, got it?!?

JUKU COUTURE AUDRINA!!!

We don’t typically go for girls’ dolls, but the Juku Couture Audrina doll might just change that! With stylish clothes and articulation to rival most action figures, Audrina is far more entertaining than your average boy toy.  (1/14/10)

This has got to be the coolest train design ever.

THREE HORNS > ONE HORN

Even so, the horns aren’t the most striking feature of the Full Throttle Triceratops Ranger — it’s his wicked stylish jacket. Even without decent articulation, cool accessories, and a great price, this figure would be cool.  (12/6/09)

Run, Peri, run! In slow motion, if possible...

CHANGE IS NOT ALWAYS GOOD.

Rude, cruel, and needlessly violent, the sixth Doctor was easily the most loathsome of the character’s incarnations. As such, it’s almost fitting that the exclusive sixth Doctor regeneration figure is so disappointing.  (11/18/09)
