I know the news about Dolly Parton dying at 80 was yesterday's news, but I decided to post about it today. I have enjoyed her music, tv appearances and movies since the 1970s.

Toy Tuesday: Shadow Avenger Action Figure
Many moons ago, I created Shadow Avenger for Moongem Comics. My first attempt at drawing him was done by tracing a superhero figure from a coloring book. My second attempt was created by using the original HeroMachine (see photo #1 below). I recently created an action figure of Shadow Avenger thanks to Meta AI (see photo #2). Now if I had a 3D printer to make this action figure a reality.

Monster Monday: Deadly Tales of the Gunslinger #15
I could have sworn that I have posted about this series set in the Spawn Universe before. Anyway, Image Comics released Deadly Tales of the Gunslinger #15 on June 24th, 2026. If you love horror mixed in with your westerns, then you will love this. Here is the official summary of the digital comic:
"The Gunslinger has gotten one step closer to finding his sister, but the men he is now hunting have set a trap that he may not be able to avoid."

Superhero Sunday: Lanterns
Have you watched the first episode of Lanterns yet on HBO Max? I watched the episode twice last week since I missed hearing a lot of the dialogue even though I had the tv volume up. Kyle Chandler did a great job as Hal Jordan aka Green Lantern, but I think Aaron Pierce as John Stewart aka Green Lantern in training stole the show. The second episode airs tonight but I'll probably end up watching it on Monday morning.

Science Fiction Saturday: Captain Bluebird and His Spaceship
Many moons ago, I created a character for Moongem Comics called Captain Bluebird. He was sort of a modern-day version of DC's Blackhawk. A few days ago, I decided to play around with the idea of making a future version of him with AI. Here are two pictures of Captain Bluebird and his spaceship:

Ablaze released The Cimmerian: Xuthal of the Dusk #1 this week. Here is the official summary:
"ABLAZE’s The Cimmerian returns! See Robert E. Howard’s classic pulp tales adapted to the comics medium with all bloody, guts, and glory intact!
