Toxic Avenger Reboot!
They’re doing a Toxic Avenger reboot! It’s a classic 1980s Troma film…that I never actually watched as a kid. Nope, but I was a huge fan of the Toxic Crusaders, that kid-friendly cartoon version! So at least I have that. But I’m definitely going to try to catch this new Toxic Avenger reboot, full of Troma glory.
It’s an R-rated trailer, so you’re gonna have to click through to YouTube to watch it.
Peter Dinklage as Toxie sounds great. This looks gross and silly and awesome. Should be a lot of fun whenever we get to see it. Apparently it premiered at a film festival a week or two ago…but I can’t find anything online about where or when it will be released to the public. I hope it is someday!

Statham + Action Movie + January = The Beekeeper
For today’s Movie Trailer Thursday, we’ve got The Beekeeper. It appears to be a generic Jason Statham action movie scheduled to come out in January, the dumping ground of movies. Though this one is directed by David Ayer, so that’s a really good sign. But still…man…this looks generic as all hell.
It also looks fun. But it also looks like it gave away all the best moments in the trailer. So maybe we just all enjoy this fun/silly trailer and move on with our lives.
The Beekeepers comes out on January 12.

6 Mutants to Join the Ninja Turtles in High School
I very much enjoyed Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem. It was fun, funny, full of energy and life, and was just plain cool all around. So I’m very much excited for the announced sequel, as well as the announced two-season cartoon on Nickelodeon! It’s going to be called Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and will serve as a bridge between the two movies.
Based on how Mutant Mayhem ended, I’m pretty much assuming that the new cartoon series will feature the Turtles in high school. That’s a great premise, and one I don’t think we’ve seen before. All the young voice actors from Mutant Mayhem are returning for the Turtles, and it should be a blast to see them as real teenagers in a real high school, just like they wanted! Should be a fun watch. And what would be even more fun? Filling the high school with other teenage mutants from the wider world of the Turtles!
So join me after the jump as I rattle off some of my favorite old school TMNT mutants who deserve a chance to step up and being recognized in cartoon form, at long last!

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are hot right now. Mutant Mayhem didn’t blow up the box office, but the toy sales were through the roof, and there should be more on the way. To celebrate, the internet hero at Tell It Animated has done a video on live action Ninja Turtle appearances! It’s madness.
As always, this is a mini-masterpiece. This dude found his niche and I hope he’s having a lot of fun with it. And consider me on board for a sequel video of the various animated Ninja Turtles. That one should be fun!
And, as always, do Robin!

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 9/30/23
Another week is upon us, and it’s another week of reading comics! Good for us. Some pretty solid comics too, like new Power Rangers and new Avengers.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Void Rivals #4 for another solid, entertaining chapter in this ongoing tale. It’s all pretty simple, but it’s effectively simple.
Meanwhile, I finally beat Baldur’s Gate 3! I beat both a co-op campaign with a friend, and my solo campaign where I was able to do more. And it’s come to a fitting conclusion, and I’ve moved right on to the new Cyberpunk 2077 upgrades and DLC. I had a great time last time I played the game at launch, so here’s hoping for another good time now.
Comic Reviews: Avengers #5, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #112, Ms. Marvel: The New Mutant #2 and Void Rivals #4.
