Mandomath


 Season 3 -A change of pace from Seasons One and Two  Reminded me of Samarui epics like  The Water Margin and Kurosawa but with Jetpacks  so it's fine by me although Seasons One and Two still the best.

It's awesome that everybody was speculating about The Spies  but you're bought down to Mandolore by the end ... maybe the other spy was R5D4



Now thats what I talkin' about 2002 in forums I'd get banned from lol Hope to see more of this on grander scale Ran style with Sun Guard and Royal Guards -everything goes back to Kurosaws -check his storyboards George in Hondo

 

Gonna miss Mando and Grogru it'll be a few years unless he pops up in Skeleton Crew or Ashoka or perhaps theres a video game inbetween -Dyn hunting down Imperial High command Karl Fairburne style on different planets would be welcome But the Return of the Poncho will ease the wait till August.

Mando Eve

 


So wheres Fenn Rau? my season  finale theory features him and Sabine Wren  7th Cavalarly style rescue  from The New Republic and Fenns Mandalorian Protectors fleet  for Dyn and Grogro-but the Armorer been a spy? I hope not but if it drives the story forward I can live with that ..but the way she laid out those Stormtroopers in season 1 finale it'll be hard truth to swallow The Mythosaur will be friendly and intellegent and has Gideon's number  I reckon he's lizard food  similar to Trump been attacked by Bald Eagle lol 

 


 

"One Does not Speak Unless One Knows" You can't get more Clint /Samurai than that ) R.I.P Paz Viszla the John Miluis of The Children of the Watch (the perfect name for a mid sixties garage band lol) Beyond Mando.... This Rocked my world last week! David Tennant Yay! We need Tom Baker again The Return of The Bendu!maybe season 3 We're bound to see Rebels crew in Andor too or at least a cameo -when Mon splits to Dantooine and the Rebel Alliance is born but we gotta wait for that. But most excited for Ashoka -as it makes perfect sense - Skeleton Crews a mystery though right now -I reckon We'll see Captain Hondo in that -could Jude Law be playing Max Von Sydows character Lor San Tekka from The Force Awakens ? just a thought..It sounds like Stand by Me or The Goonies but in space I wonder if Bill Burr will re-appear in that show or something else.

Season 3 has felt different I think much of that is down to  soundtrack -I guess Ludvig would be busy on other shows or projects...but he's come up with total classics lately

One Offs 2


 Art Gene Day

 Something I coloured back in January -looking forward to the new Indy movie ,, hopefully all the doomsayers have spoken  all wrong...looks very 1969


More Harrison this time as Rick Deckard started these last autumn -whilst colouring Al Williamsons Star Wars strips thought I'd give ol Blade Runner a whirl -these are far from complete but if I get get the sudden urge to return to these I will.
"Let me Tell You about my Mother" lol Been reading Action History of a Violent Comic tonnes of reprints from Action including Death Game 1999 which evolved into Spinball then Spinball Slaves untill Action merged with Battle and then it became Spinball Wars .. these Brian Bolland pages are from late 70's Action annual thought I'd have a go at these -it's very Rollerballesqe

May try out first episode of Harlem Heroes which is set in the 2050's Judge Forgo's era Jet Packs Ahoy! 

Thought I'd leap ahead to first WW2 era  Charleys War story as an experiment  enjoyed Joes art on the BEF stories but one can only wonder how Pat would of written if he was given the chance to research WW2

.

I'll return to WW1 era Charley -as these scans aint great but they are on the earlier re-scanned stories

But by far the best illustrated comic about the Blitzkrieg and Dunkirk -even if story  lacked Pat's impact! By the time Charley concluded Battle had lost it's edge(the other stories got really silly ) and I was more into 2000ad and music ,,

 


Indiana Jones and The Institute of Doom

  The Sequel to last post but one  .. getting more views on Youtube   mainly due to new TV show which is  Grande  +  1 -well done gawd bless...
