Superhero Sunday: Sunbolt #1 Cover

The cover of Sunbolt #1 from Moongem Comics promoted the Sunbolt action figure that Meta AI created. This is an origin issue of the Solar Speedster. Naturally, he was a scientist until a solar flare gave him lightning speed and other powers.

Science Fiction Saturday: Star Trek: 60th Anniversary Special #1

IDW Publishing released Star Trek: 60th Anniversary Special #1 earlier this week. Here's the official summary:

On September 8, 1966, Star Trek debuted on television and changed the landscape of science fiction forever, bringing us not only characters who were inspiring and smart but storytelling that shaped the way people thought about the world.

Fantasy Friday: 1950s Women Playing Dungeons & Dragons Part 3

Here's the cover for Dungeons & Dinner #3 from Retro Comics donated by Meta Ai. The three women from the 1950s are playing Dungeons & Dragons. They have the rule books, dice, miniatures, character sheets and even a dungeon masters screen. Oh, how I would love to be playing with them tonight...oh, I mean playing the game with them tonight.

I like the vampire variant cover for Labor Union Comics #1 that I made Grok create a t-shirt devoted to it:

Toy Tuesday: Sunbolt Action Figure

Sunbolt was created using HeroMachine and will be an interesting addition to Moongem Comics.

I decided to turn him into an action figure by using Meta AI and here are the results:

I really like the nickname he was given. The Solar Speedster has a pretty cool ring to it.

Science Fiction Saturday: Lonja from Jakbat

Many moons ago, I created Lonja with the help of HeroMachine. I really didn't do much with her other than put her on my Moongem website. I forgot about her and never did a background story for her. The alien woman was never intended to be a character for Moongem Comics but I might have to change that.

Lonja from Jakbat Created with HeroMachine

Yesterday, I was playing around with Grok and created two action figures. The first one looks more like a figurine while the second one is a retro action figure. I like the first one better of the two.

Fantasy Friday: 1950s Women Playing Dungeons & Dragons Part 2

The 1950s women are back now wearing aprons instead of sweaters while they play Dungeons & Dragons. Thanks to Meta AI, they also have a Dungeon Master's Screen and dragon figurines. The milk is still on the stove though.

Women Wednesday: 1950s Women Playing Dungeons & Dragons Part 1

A new month means new changes here at Moongem Comics. There will probably be a lot less coverage of new comic book releases. There will also probably be a lot more AI images like this one below made with Meta AI featuring three women from the 1950s playing Dungeons & Dragons. There are several dice, character sheets, a dungeon map and rulebooks on the kitchen table. The blonde's character is a level two ranger named Elyndra while the redhead's character is a level three magic user named Mlyra. That leaves the brunette as the dungeon master. I find it funny that someone put a bottle of milk on the stove.
