Parkour-Powered Rube Goldberg
It’s not secret I love Parkour [as opposed to Parker, which I also dig]. So, what do you get when you power a Rube Goldberg machine with Parkour? Something that starts out crazy and gets more intense with each new object that gets put into play.
Well done, Jason Paul and his team!
Parker is Back!
I’m really surprised we’re not hearing more about Parker.
Parker is based on the classic crime novels of Richard Stark, and features a cast that includes Jason Statham, Jennifer Lopez, Michael Chiklis, and Nick Nolte. The trailer looks good and the Parker movie site has gone live.
Let’s spread the word!
Dave Wachter is Expendable, Too
Dave Wachter returns with his take on Sly from Expendables 2. I met Dave a few years ago and became an instant fan. I wasn’t the only one to discover Dave’s fantastic sketches! How can you not like a great guy who is a terrific artist? You can see more of Dave’s art at his site. – Craig
And Now the REAL 007
Earlier this morning we looked at 007 From Plainfield New Jersey. Now we have the REAL 007.
J. O’Barr is Skinning the Wolves
J. O’Barr is writing and doing the art layouts [with finishes by Jim Terry] for a new Crow three issue mini-series called Skinning the Wolves. Set in a concentration camp in the darkest hours of World War II, the story…
- investigates a world where the dark harbinger of vengeance is dispatched in response to one of history’s greatest atrocities and the ultimate evil that perpetrated it.
I’ve been a J. O’Barr fan since the original Crow mini-series debuted back in the pages of Caliber Presents. Although I bought almost every Crow mini-series that followed it, something was always missing. Usually it was J. O’Barr. I’m glad to see he’s back with story and layouts and will give it a shot!

The 32 Greatest Unscripted Movie Scenes.
It may come as a surprise, but often a movie’s most memorable line/scene is the result of an ad-lib. Paul Young at Screen Rant presents The 32 Greatest Unscripted Movie Scenes.
R.I.P. – R.B. Greaves
I just learned that R.B. Greaves passed away on September 27, 2012 at the age of 67.
R.B. Greaves was best known for his million selling hit, “Take a Letter Maria” which was released in 1969. He followed up a year later with a cover of “Always Something There to Remind Me” which peaked at 27 on Billboard’s Hot 100. His cover of “A Whiter Shade of Pale” reached 87 the same year.
“Take a Letter Maria” ended up selling over 2 million copies and was the first 45 I ever bought. I loved that song (and still do) and every time I hear it, it takes me back to my childhood.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to R.B. Greaves, his family, friends and fans.
“The Butterfly Effect”
Have you seen this fun short CGI animation, The Butterfly Effect?
- The Butterfly Effect was written and directed by Dan Sumich and is a homage to the classic action films from the 1970s through to the 1990s, with a soundtrack by the legendary heavy metal vocalist Steve Grimmett.
Well done, fellas!
A New Swing at Tarzan
Very cool.
Thanks and a big “Ungawa” to @MikeZeck for the heads-up.
