LOST week 2; Day 3

Sun-Hwa Kwon

Sun is another character that I hope continues to play a big part in the show. She appears delicate on the surface, but she really is quite cunning with a mean streak when you get on her bad side. I think the actress Yunjin Kim does a great job in the role.

Jin-Soo Kwon


Jin is really a likeable guy to me. I love the way he smiles. He seems very protective of Sun, which is admirable, I just hope it doesn't get him into too much trouble. His english is really coming along nicely too.

I wouldn't mind Jin playing an even bigger role in this upcoming season, I think there's a lot left that the character can offer. I think he'd kick butt if you really let him loose.

LOST week 2; Day 1

Juliet Burke

Hey all, Springfield Punx is back with Lost Week 2!

First up is Dr. Juliet Burke. I guess her status on the show is as 'up in the air' as everything else considering that last season finale. There's also the fact that the actress Elizabeth Mitchell looks to be starring in ABC's "V" as well, so I'm not sure how much more we'll see of her.

At any rate, Juliet really seems to have brought out the 'softer' side of Sawyer, quite the feat if you ask me. Elizabeth Mitchell did a great job injecting (doctor pun) life and intelligence into Juliet, and there's still more about her past and connections to Ben Linus that I'd like to know.

And as a bonus, I gave in and threw together the requested 'shirtless' Sawyer in all his yellow glory, to go with Juliet. And before anyone starts - No, don't bother asking for shirtless versions of the ladies, this ain't that kind of party :)

If you'd like, you can see the first Lost Week Punx here.

Stay tuned for Day 2 tomorrow!

Ghostbusters Poster

Hey guys, I came across these really well done posters featuring the SP versions of Ghostbusters! I adore the one with the Simpson family in it :)

Anyway, the creator of these goes by the name 'gh0stbuster' and you can check out their stuff at the link

To Batman, and BEYOND!

Batman Beyond, Old Bruce Wayne, Ace the Bat-Hound



Hey all, I'm still here! I know it's been a fair break since last post but, it's just summer, you know?

Anyway, I wanted to share some characters from Batman Beyond. I thought it was a cool and stylish cartoon. While I'm not sure if I want it to be THE 'canon future' for Batman or not, I really did enjoy it's take on the whole mythos.

I think Terry's Batman suit is cool looking and rather brilliant in it's simplicity.

The old version of Bruce Wayne has got to be my favorite thing of the show, he was just so... Bruce Wayne-y. Ace rocks too :)

Springfield Punx Graffiti!

Hey all, just wanted to share with you some awesome Punx-inspired Graffiti art by a clever and talented artist named Gusto. He did this beautifully huge mural featuring Punx-styled Marvel characters.



It really is an impressive piece. I hope you go check out his post about it here and see it in all it's full-sized glory.

To see the Marvel Punx previously featured here on the blog, you can click on some of the labels below.

Thanks Gusto, it's amazing!

King of Pop

Michael Jackson

I was a bit hesitant to cover Michael Jackson right now. I've seen all the unrelenting coverage on the entertainment gossip shows and I've passed by the generously stocked CD displays that have been hastily set up in the stores. Are they just cashing in, or maybe I guess the're just feeding a hunger that's out there right now in the wake of his passing? I don't know but at any rate I didn't want to go out and be explotive, not deliberately at least.

In light of all that, and also the controversy in his life (I don't know exactly what he did or didn't do, but that's something others will continue to look at I suppose) but I still did want to pay tribute to my memories of the past and share that with others.

This is the Michael Jackson I 'met' as a kid. A happy, glowing young man looking at me from the 'Thriller' cover. The needle tracing the circles of the record, pulling out the enchanting music. Turning on the tv and seeing this guy move like I'd never seen anyone move before. And a really cool red jacket.

I've had more good memories of MJ and I've also witnessed him go through his 'changes' (so to speak) but that was my first and biggest experience of him and he defines so much of what the 80's was to me. Remember those Pepsi commercials? :)

I also remember the 'Michael Jackson' episode of the Simpsons long ago. That was cool. I've heard a few different things about it not being the real MJ doing the voice and others that say it really was. If you know for sure, don't worry about telling me, I actually think I'd rather not know.

Blog note - If you've been trying to email me, you may need to be patient if you're looking for a response. I've been getting a fair amount of messages, (a few of them I have discovered end up in my spam folder for some reason) so if you really need to hear back, just email again. Thanks.
