The Thing and Sandman

 

A deceptively simple looking cover - but it took a lot of caption removal and image replacement before I could add Dream in.  Here is a look behind the scenes:

John Wick and Krypto

 

The John Wick movies are entertaining in that they can usually be counted on for some very inventively staged action scenes, but I have to admit I find them a little hard to take seriously.  These "World's best assassin must come out of retirement because all the other assassins in the assassin guild are out to assassinate him, so he has to assassinate them first" type movies are usually a bit over the top, but this franchise takes it to a whole new level. In fights, Wick never seems to miss and the bad guys never seem to hit him.  Law enforcement never seems to notice the trail of bodies in his wake. Still, as long as I think of these movies as live action cartoons, I can enjoy them - I'll definitely check out the fourth installment.

Hawkman and Jonny Quest



I thoroughly enjoyed Future Quest, the revival of several Hanna-Barbera  characters, a few years back.  I hope there will be more to come.  I still say there is a ton of potential in a HB Cinematic Universe, and a live action Jonny Quest adaptation would be a perfect place to start one.
