...and the greatness of Trini! Our latest Spectare review is mostly a critique of "Boy Meets World", but we also pay tribute to Topanga's quirky best friend... who appeared in all of two episodes. And look! Video clips! (8/26/07)
Yes -- at last -- it's Dusty Plastic HELL #6! No -- alas -- it's not the continuation of Krang's quest for a body. Batman and Robin are here, though... and they've just returned to find some unexpected visitors in the Batcave. (8/18/07)
Much like the responses on Jeopardy, A Crayon Haiku #66 takes the form of a question. Like certain answers and Daily Doubles, it also refers to an image. Will you be able to answer it? That was also a question. (8/11/07)
Over the weekend of June 23, 2007, Chris Benoit shocked wrestling fans by killing his wife, his son, and himself. Yet in 2005, the Face Flippin' Chris Benoit figure prophetically depicted the two sides of the late WWE star. (8/7/07)
Transformers. Robots in disguise. Heroic Autobots battle evil Decepticons in a million-year war to decide the fate the universe. How do you screw up a premise like that? Michael Bay and company pulled it off. (7/11/07)
As noted previously on Scary-Crayon, Wes spent a few days in China in May 2007 -- and in Toys from Shanghai, he describes his experiences in the foreign toy shops and reviews his spoils. Toys have little holes, too. (6/21/07)
Dusty Plastic HELL: Hot Flash #100!
And in Dusty Plastic Hell: Hot Flash #100 (yay!), we head on over to China for a sampling of Wes's adventures on Nanjing Road, the main street for shopping in Shanghai. Indeed, one can buy all sorts of things there... (6/5/07)
Dusty Plastic HELL: Hot Flash #99!
Why has my cell become a magnet for wrong numbers as of late? It's maddening and mind-boggling, but at least it makes for good Hot Flash material. I'll have a cape and a cowl and a plucky young sidekick (or two) to go! (5/21/07)
In a faraway land where everything is covered with mold, a lone scholar takes it upon herself to rid her town of the oppressive fungus. Read about her solitary exploits in an allegorical tale entitled "Mold Country". (5/21/07)
TMNT I & II: THE MS-DOS PORTS!!!
Scary-Crayon continues its unofficial quest to review every Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game for the PC in this look at the MS-DOS versions of TMNT I and II. Beware, for April O'Neil has joined the ranks of the living dead. (5/10/07)
In the long-awaited 14th edition of Crayon Poetry Corner, we sadly reflect upon an encounter with a flattened horny toad during a late night walk. Weep, dear readers, for it died so young... and with so much undone. (5/10/07)
Many Random Lunches are made, but few are seen here: most are forgotten. Yet just as busty explorers raid ruins to uncover relics of old, so may you unearth these dishes by reading... The Lost Lunches: Volume One. (5/5/07)
The new season of Doctor Who hasn't been all that great, but this latest development is especially ridiculous and utterly unacceptable. In A Crayon Haiku #65, we look upon the abomination that is... well, abominable. (4/21/07)
Like the VA Tech shooter, Wes was also condemned for authoring "disturbing" works in college. In fact, this very excerpt was deemed so horrifying that the writing tutor avoided him at all costs after reading it! Srsly. (4/20/07)
Today is Friday the 13th, so here is A Crayon Haiku #64 with a potentially spooky product from the dollar store to commemorate the occasion! Perhaps it will go well with Whitehall sandwich slices... and bread. (4/13/07)
They've released a ton of Ninja Turtles video games over the years, but none has been quite like TMNT: Manhattan Missions (except for itself, of course). Read on to find out why it's our favorite interactive Turtles adventure! (4/8/07)
Yes, it's time for another short story! Well, sort of, as "The Native and the Foreigner" is more of a brief vignette that describes an uneasy foreigner's initial interactions with his native host. Strange customs indeed... (4/4/07)
With a new Turtles movie in theaters, you just knew they'd release a video game tie-in to milk the franchise for even more cash. But is it worth buying? Read our review of the PC version of Ubisoft's TMNT for more details. (3/31/07)
