Axe Cop for President!
Another hilarious Axe Cop animated short to remind us that the series will debut on July 27! Rejoice and enjoy!
Nick Offerman is the perfect Axe Cop. Best. Casting. Ever. I still can’t believe that Axe Cop is really going to be a cartoon. It seems impossible that the universe would be this giving. But we shall see in July! And if you haven’t yet, check out the Axe Cop comic to see what all the fuss is about.
Gollum Rap Battle Will Blow Your Minds
I don’t know if I say this enough, but I love the Internet. If we didn’t have the Internet, then people wouldn’t make awesome stuff like that video and share it with the world. Hats off to Extremely Decent Films for some quality Gollum time. The voice is great, the actor is great, the lyrics are hilarious, good, quality stuff.
Batgirl and Supergirl’s Cookie Exchange
Merry Christmas from Henchman-4-Hire! And from artist Mike Maihack!
I’m so glad that Mike Maihack is taking care of Christmas for me. While I’m out spending the day with my family, I can count on him to draw an adorable new Batgirl and Supergirl adventure to celebrate the holidays! I posted his previous comic last year. They are just the some of the most adorable superhero comics you’ll find this side of Super Best Friends Forever, which also happens to star Batgirl and Supergirl. Funny how that works out.
Anyway, I hope everybody’s having a Merry Christmas and some enjoyable holidays!
Animated Punisher Fan Film Makes My Day
The Internet does it again and randomly delivers a fan-animated adaptation of Garth Ennis’ Do Not Fall in New York City.
Apparently this came out a few months ago, but I haven’t heard about it until now. Ain’t that how it always is? The film is a brilliant piece of Ennis brutality. It could have used some music, but otherwise it’s quite moody, and perfectly Punisher. See Hollywood, it’s not hard at all to get the Punisher right. This was made by animator Luis Pelayo Junquera.
My Childhood Recaptured in Stop Motion
And by ‘my childhood’, I of course mean the X-Men cartoon from the 90s, recreated in loving detail.
Glorious! The action figure work is to die for. The video was made by Kyle Roberts and Reckless Abandonment Pictures. Top notch work. Apparently they took over 4,000 individual pictures to make that video, along with special effects and background animation. Truly impressive. My friends and I in college once made a stop motion video in the hallway. It was good, and I wish I still had a copy of it somewhere.
I don’t know about you, but the X-Men cartoon in the 90s defined my childhood. I was watching that cartoon before I even really got into comic books, and no doubt it helped spur me along to my eventual obsession. So kudos to these people for winning the Internet this week.
