The Boondocks Are Back Again....

Don't Call It A Come Back!
Words By Raymond Tyler


I don't care if they do call it a come back I am just glad to have the only show that is more under appreciated than The Wire back on TV.

Yesterday I got a notice from The Boondock on my facebook and I did my happy dance.
I feel if miserable lonely women have Winston Jerome , than intelligent people who enjoy provactive art should have The Boondocks.

We will keep you posted on when.

It will return to the Adult Swim line up of the Cartoon Network.

Now if we can only get Adult Swim to do a series based The Wire!

And for goodness sake SOMEBODY owes Regina King 3 Emmy Awards. Let's Get It Right!


Here in episode 2 of Season One Huey sets the record straight about
R. Kelly.

Avengers Fan Fiction: Iron Hulk By Oskar Castro featuring Iron Man and Hawkeye

Iron Hulk Number 1



Discovery

Story by Oskar Castro.




“How long is this gonna take Clint?”



“Few more minutes I think.”



“Really?  You said that fifteen minutes ago.  Do you know what you’re doing?  I’ve got things I need to do.”



“Of course.  Sorry. This is like rocket science to me. I‘m figuring it out.”



“Rocket science? I thought you knew what you were doing Clint? You’ve been at this for about an hour.  This was only supposed to take about ten minutes. I’ve got things to do you know!”



“There!  There it is!  Look!  Can you see it?”



“See what?  What am I supposed to be seeing?”



“It’s the Hulk.  Hold on. Let me fine-tune it. There!”



“The Hulk?  As in Bruce?”



“No, not Bruce.  Another Hulk… from an alternate reality.”



“Clint, what the heck is this?”



“It’s a dimensional monitor. Vision and Franklin Richards made it for me so I could watch Mockingbird’s alternate in another dimension.  It’s like switching channels, you know?  I can see as many different versions of Mockingbird as are out there.  Pretty cool. Pretty weird too, right?”



“Yeah. So, why are we looking at an alternate Hulk?  And why did it take so long?”



“Ah, right. Well, Vision and Franklin designed it to hone in all Mockingbirds.  So I had to tinker with it.  You know me. After awhile I got bored just watching all these Mockingbirds who weren’t Mockingbird.  Instead of lifting me up, it just made me melancholy. So I had the idea that I might tune into the lives of other alternate Avengers.  I call it alternate-reality-TV and I started with the Hulk.  I saved the coordinates, but I think maybe the gamma radiation the Hulk gives off makes it difficult for the device to get an exact fix on him.”



“You should have Vision fix it.”



“He refused.”



“Right. Makes sense to me too.  What the hell are you doing Clint?!  They shouldn’t have made this toy for you in the first place. Again, why are we looking at the Hulk?!”



“Right!  The Hulk. Well, see… this Hulk is different than our Hulk.  Very.  I was watching him earlier and this guy is… well, he’s you Tony.”



“What?  Me?!”



“Yeah.  Apparently in this dimensional plane the Hulk is also Tony Stark and not Bruce Banner. Tony Stark is… now brace yourself… Iron Hulk. Pretty cool right?”   



“Iron Hulk?!  What the…”



“See the armor? Cool right? Get’s better. See, this Tony Stark is best bud’s with T’challa. They have a global empire together. In this dimension T’challa has brokered a deal between his people in Wakanda, and Stark Enterprises. The stores of vibranium are being mined and used to power Stark’s mechanical innovations.  And he is doing it all as Iron Hulk/Tony Stark.  Crazy cool, right?”



“Right. Listen Clint. Next time you want to waste an hour of my time, don’t. Ok?” 



“Sheesh.  C’mon, Tony. Chill out. I’ve got popcorn…?”



“Stay away from me Clint.”



“Whateva”.

AVENGERS FAN FICTION: No One Mourns The Strong

AVENGERS FAN FICTION!
No One Mourns The Strong!Featuring Joe Fix It and The Might Thor!
Joe Fix It Iage by John Buscema

Words By Raymond Tyler

Joe Fixit Created By Peter David


The Great Forum Bar inside The Coliseum Casino where Joe Fix It works as security chief 1-A. He’s talking to Thor who almost turned the place out looking for “Joe.” The two sit in an area with special re-enforced titanium seating made especially for Joe and his “guests.”

Thor: “Hulk, your manners still be as stale as troll breath, though in those clothes and this job, I would say thou art more incredible than ever.”

Hulk:. “Nix the Hulk stuff, now I’m just Joe. Who do I owe a punch in the mouth for telling you I was in Vegas? Spider man or that Wolverine loser? Maybe I’ll kill em both after the Tyson/Seldon fight next week. Still you’re here now what do you want?”

Thor: “Just a drink and some conversation and then I am back off to further adventures.”

Hulk: “Hmm you mean I ain’t gonna have to wrap that cape around your ears and beat the snot out of you to leave me alone?”

Thor laughs and pats Joe on the back: “Not that you, Benjamin Grimm, Namor and 20 green Hulks could best me Joe. But, no fights here tonight.”

Hulk thinks to himself: “That’s what you think. If I hate anything more than being called Hulk right now, it’s being compared to that green, first person talking moron and Banner. Still it will not hurt to have a drink with an old Avenger even if he is almost as snooty as Stark.”

Thor: “No my friend. I am just here to enjoy a night of women and drinks. You know more than anyone, no one weeps for the strong. Yes they may have some compassion for Grimm because he wants to be a mere mortal. However men like us. Men, that can change the course of mighty rivers with our bare hands or leap tall buildings in a single bound..?

Hulk: “Watch out Goldie you’re real close to copyright infringement but I get the picture.”

Till well after three in the morning Thor and Joe talk Betty Ross, Sif, Jane Foster and even Jarella. They talk crummy fathers. Thor rants on and on about his dung-hole brother Loki. Thor has pitcher after pitcher of the 100 Proof Vodka .While Joe himself has scotch and sodas minus the scotch. Just as they get outside and clear of the casino

Hulk thinks to himself: “You know Joey. Thor ain’t as much of tool as I used to think. I almost want to put him in a cab and send him back to Stark’s mansion and show I got more class than back when we kicked The Space Phantom’s butt.”

A staggering Thor: “Could you point me in the direction of New York?”

Joe: “Sure thing Goldie it’s that way. By the way. Nice to know you like the ladies too.”
Thor looking confused: “What dost thou mean by that statement Hulk?”

Hulk: “Well you know? The ‘Barbie doll’ hair, the funny talk, the circus o lay, out fit. I always figured you and Stark were a cute couple. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.”

With that, a flash of thunder and lightning, lights up the Vegas night like 12 noon and strikes Joe launching him high in the air.

Hulk turns around in air as he starts to fall toward a waiting Thor.

Hulk yells “We’re Playing The Feud Now!!!!”

This has been a good night for Joe Fix It. And for the people in Vegas who couldn’t get rooms next week for the Tyson fight? They still get treated to a once in a life time battle of heavy weights.

Marvel's The Avengers Smashes Overseas Box Office Records - Hollywood News



I just guestimated that the studio was looking for The Avengers to do between 150-200 Million the first weekend.

This movie could do 300 million however. With rising tickets prices and the fact I don't know anyone who isn't going the first week.
So far it seems The Avengers may do 300 easy!

The Fi Sci Expo Needs Women


For years the perception has been that science fiction was for kids and geaks whon live with mom.
However at every con I go to the women get sexier and there are more!

So we are inviting the ladies to explain why not only are they coming out of the closet...but the ladies are coming out wearing tights and thigh high boots and knowing about parellel universes and the space time continuum.

If you would like to volunteer to be a part of The Greater Atlantic City Fiction and Science Expo or a panel please contact Raymond Tyler at RaymondCTyler@gmail.com.
