Very saddened to hear Kazuki Motoyama recently passed away. He was the man behind Kodansha’s Super Mario manga that covered a lot of Mario’s adventures, including spinoff games. I’m hoping the series gets a reprint one day.

It blows my mind how little of Rick Remender’s catalog has been adapted in TV/movies. I’d love to see a Black Science tv show and a Tokyo Ghost movie.

This was mega fun to watch. I was aware of the floating platform glitch because it frustrated us so much as kids, but not much else.
MM1 is one of my favorites so I made a little compilation showing some of the unusual things I've found/learned about it over the years. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKy0...
