Unapologetic fan of all things geeky. Franchise marathon binger extraordinaire. Comic book reader and editor. Reclusive wanker.
I now have the Power Rangers characters I’ve wanted figures of since 1993.

Finally, thanks to Super7 and their insane deep diving into the licenses they get, Bulk and Skull get the appreciation they deserve.

I can now die happy.

(Many, many years from now.

Many.)

Yes! My favourite digital exclusive comic on Marvel Unlimited is back! Wooooo!

It’s Jeff by @kellythompson.bsky.social and Gurihiru

More Jeff is always more gooder! I swear this adorable series has genuinely become my favourite thing Marvel puts out. It’s also required bedtime reading for my kids

First look at the 49th Super Sentai team, No. 1 Sentai Gozyuger.

Initial colour make up is Red, Black, Blue, Green, Yellow.

I’m definitely intrigued by the suit designs. Looking forward to seeing the full suits more clearly.

As a toy collector, you’d think getting a super impressive Optimus Prime, or screen accurate Megazord or funny as hell obscure comic character something would be the figure that would most excite me.

Nope.

It’s at long last getting a figure of Bulk (with Skull soon to arrive).

Average person gets a new big screen tv, they watch some big budget SFX heavy movie they love to really appreciate it.

Then there’s me…

After almost 2 years and 42 combined seasons, my big Tokusatsu marathon has reached the 90s.

Just started Chikyuu Sentai Fiveman (not bad), so getting really close to the seasons that were adapted for Power Rangers.

Woke up to the news that Tony Todd has passed away. For a man with such distinctive voice who went on to play & voice so many badass and terrifying characters, for me my favourite role will always be the adult Jake Sisko from DS9.

Such a sad, sweet role from someone known as a master of horror.

The current linewide relaunch of the X-Books have been pretty consistently fun. It’s been the closest I’ve felt to how the books felt when I started reading as a kid.

Uncanny X-Men by Gail Simone and David Marquez though, is easily the highlight. This cover channels the Claremont era beautifully.

The Doctor Who universe binge watch reaches Torchwood season 1.

I haven’t watched these since they aired first, so I’ve been excited to see what I think of it 15 years on. I remember enjoying it, but finding it somewhat slow during the first season.

Funny how tastes change. First time I saw this episode I hated it so much, mostly due to Catherine Tate. Not even sure why, it just hit me wrong.

Now, the better part of 20 years later, Donna is my favourite companion, and I’m actually enjoying the episode on the rewatch.

Tonight my geek tv viewing brings me to my favourite season 1 Doctor Who storyline.
