Countdown to Halloween 2026 Day 29: Humphrey Bogart as the Mummy Action Figure

Grok's looking at you, kid. Add a fedora to the Mummy and you get a very unique Humphrey Bogart action figure. This should come with a scarab beetle and a Colt 1903 Pocket Hammerless gun. A sarcophagus and a 1940 Buick Phaeton car are sold separately.

Countdown to Halloween 2026 Day 28: Marilyn Monroe as the Bride of Frankenstein Action Figure

I asked Grok what an action figure of Marilyn Monroe as the Bride of Frankenstein would look like. I wasn't expecting much really but she came out okay enough to show her for this week's Women Wednesday post. I wouldn't immediately recognize her as the actress. She does have the beauty mark but is a bit on the slim side. I was delighted that she was shown still in the package. I would get her just to have her along with the John Wayne as Frankenstein's Monster action figure.

Countdown to Halloween 2026 Day 26: Monster Mash #1

Bloodcurler Comics put out Monster Mash #1 as a one-shot in the mid-1960s and is mostly forgotten even among old-time readers. The cover features Frankenstein's monster, Dracula, the Mummy and the Wolfman on their way to a jam session. There is also a blurb stating that Frankenstein will meet the Phantom in the next issue but that was never published as far as we know. Thanks to Grok for digging up this "lost" issue for this week's Monster Monday post.

Countdown to Halloween 2026 Day 13: Western Legends as Classic Monsters

For this week's Halloween-themed Toy Tuesday post, I asked my friend, Grok, what if Clint Eastwood was a Dracula action figure. I thought the results were pretty decent for he does look like the actor. I thought the cape over the long coat was funny.

I also asked Grok to create a John Wayne as Frankenstein's Monster action figure. I like the addition of the cowboy hat, clothing and a gun in a holster. Unfortunately, he lost a lot of Duke's facial features.

Monster Monday: Elvis as Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

I asked my friend, Grok, what would Elvis Presley look like as Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. The result was so interesting that I asked to see it as a movie poster too:

T-shirt Thursday: Moongem Comics Logo T-shirts by Grok

Grok came up with two t-shirts with different designs featuring a Moongem Comics logo. I like the second one better.

Women Wednesday: Wonder Woman Tries New Uniforms

Wonder Woman decided it's time to try a new look and turned to Grok for help. She decided to try Star Trek, G.I. Joe and Cobra uniforms. The last one is my favorite.

Toy Tuesday: Captain Bluebird Galactic Quest Game

I asked Grok to create a board game based on Moongem Comics. The AI came up with a science fiction board game called Captain Bluebird Galactic Quest.

The miniature figures used in the game include Captain Bluebird, Shadow Avenger and Doctor Moongem (he's a mad scientist here instead of a superhero). You can tell the differences between the figures in the two pictures (I like the ones from the first picture).

Captain Bluebird Galactic Quest is an interesting board game but not exaxtly what I was exptecting.

Science Fiction Saturday: Blade Runner Replicants

Here are three replicants from Blade Runner that Grok came up with:

Elvira as a Blade Runner Replicant

David Bowie as a Blade Runner Replicant

Women Wednesday: Solara the Solar Flame Trading Card

From the pages of Sunbolt #3 from Moongem Comics comes Solara the Solar Flame on her first trading card. Grok came up with this version and I have to say that she rocks the costume.

Monster Monday: Vampire Count Edgar Allan Poe

Grok has recently uncovered evidence that Edgar Allan Poe became a vampire count after his death on October 7, 1849:

T-shirt Thursday: Labor Union Comics #1 Vampire Variant Cover T-shirt

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

Happy Labor Day 2026. To celebrate, I present to you the vampire variant cover of Labor Union Comics #1 from May 2024 donated by Grok.

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.

Monster Monday: John Wayne as Frankenstein's Monster

Yesterday was Mary Shelley's birthday, who was born on August 30, 1797. It is also known for Frankenstein's Day in honor of her since she wrote the 1818 novel, Frankenstein. I thought it would be cool to see what Grok would come up with if John Wayne was Frankenstein for this week's Monster Monday post.

Toy Tuesday: Moongem Comics Drawn on Etch N Sketch

Grok Imagine did a cool job creating a Moongem Comics logo on an Etch N Sketch. I used to have the toy when I was growing up but all I could draw was squares.

Fantasy Friday Bonus: Poisoned Apple Cult Song

I used Grok to create the lyrics for the Poisoned Apple Cult song by Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Then I used Suno to create the song. I think it turned out pretty cool. and you can listen for yourself with the link below.
