UPDATE TO THIS LOG ENTRY. SADLY MY APPEARANCE ON SCI-FI SAT. THIS EVENING WAS CANCELLED AS THEY RAN OUT OF TIME TO SQUEEZE ME IN. HOPEFULLY I WILL BE ON NEXT WEEK. THAT’S SHOW
BIZ! HA!

Tomorrow night, July 16th, I will be a guest on Sci-Fi Saturday Night; a radio program hosted by AM 610-WGIR out of Manchester,NH. Its a terrific show,hosted by the mysterious Mr.K, and his loyal assistants, the Dome and Krianna the Anime Princess. They sent me an invitation a few weeks back and I was thrilled. It’s a fun show and I’m told, my segment will start somewhere between 8 & 8:30 PM. So if any of you are within range of this station, tune your dials to AM 610 and listen up. Should be a ton of fun.

Been a very productive work writing-wise. I’m in the middle of a brand new, 4 issue MASK OF THE GARGOYLE mini-series, having wrapped script #2 this week. Entitled HELLSTRUM, this project is still a ways off, as artist Dario Carrasco won’t get to it until Feb.2006. Talk about far out scheduling. Ha.

Another project moving along quite nicely is
the new CAPTAIN HAZZARD pulp novel series I’m
launching with fellow-scribe, Martin Powell. Sometime later this year, Wild Cat Press will release my re-write version of the original, 1935 CAPTAIN HAZZARD adventure, PYTHON MEN OF LOST CITY. There was ever only one issue of this magazine. Mostly due to the fact it was badly written. The writer, using a pen-name, clearly did not invest a whole lot of thought and time into its production. Thus it has remained a pulp oddity throughout the years. Now, Martin and I will be bringing it back, with, as stated above, all new adventures. We are into the first new book and I’m very, very excited about this entire project. More as it develops.

When I was 13 years old, Marvel Comics was born with the debut of the FANTASTIC 4 title.
It was a cheesy, rough-around-the-edges book
competing against the much slicker superhero line from DC Comics, then the dominating publisher in the field. It was this dorkiness,
awkward underdog feel about the FF that I loved
and would find in all the wild new books soon
to be unleased by Stan Lee, Jack Kirby and the entire staff of the Mighty Marvel Marching Society. Lo these many years later, and Columbia has just released a big-budget cinema version of that comic. The critics panned it soundly. Whereas I, and the millions of movie-going fans across the country, loved it!
Hoorah! This movie is the most successful box-office entry of the summer thus far! It exceeded indusrty predictions for its opening weekend by nearly 15 million dollars. I’m thrilled. The comic I loved as a kid is up there on that big silver screen, in a glorious, over-the-top,fun and action filled adaptation. Give yourselves a treat and catch it at a theater near you. With its resounding
success, we are very likely guaranteed sequels.
I couldn’t be happier.

Whereas if I really need doom and gloom, I need look no further than Fenway Park and the dismal performance of the World Champion Red Sox as they kicked of the second half of the baseball season. Last night their rivals, the New York Yankees, pretty much demoralized their
entire pitching roster and the highly anticipated Curt Schilling-as-a-closer expirement was a disastrous boondoggle, as the once mighty and confident Schilling gave up a two-run homer that put the Yankees on top. Then their closer, Mariano Raviera, came in and shut us down, one, two, three. Look, I love the Red Sox and am as loyal as the next guy. But here’s the bottom line, they are not going back to the World Series this year with this pitching squad. Epstein and company either have to get us some new blood or else we kiss a second trophy good-bye now.

Finally, HARRY POTTER Book #6 is on sale tomorrow and I’m so anxious to get my copy. I’ve enjoyed this series tremendously ever since my grand-daugther, Kristi, started reading them and got me hooked. And speaking of books, I hope you are all following my Pulp Fiction reviews over at the Paperback Bazaar website. (See link above this log.) They have started an on-line store making it possible for folks to actually buy the books I review in my bi-weekly column. So check them out, if you’re hunting up good reading fare.

For another week, over and out, Ron.

Salvatore Lombini was born in 1926. During World War II he served in the Navy, and while in uniform, tried his had at writing. When it looked like publishers were rejecting his work outright because of his ethnicity, he legally changed his named to Evan Hunter. And from that point onward, went on to become one of the greatest American writers of all time.

In the 1950s he wrote several movie scripts based on his own novels. One was the ground breaking BLACKBOARD JUNGLE starring Glenn Ford,
Sidney Poitier and Vic Morrow. It was based loosely on Hunter’s experiences, after the war, as a young English teacher in New York City.
His second most widely known film-project was
having done the screenplay of Daphne du Maurier’s novel THE BIRDS for Alfred Hitchcock.
But films were not where he would make his lasting mark.

In 1956, under the pseudonym of Ed McBain,
he wrote a crime novel called COP HATER. It would be the first of a series that would star not one particular character, but an entire detective squad working out of a thinly disguised New York City he called Isola. For the next 49 years of his life, he would continue to write novels involving the 87th Precinct’s detective squad and in the process revolutionized
police procedural mysteries forever. So successful for these books that they inspired a 1961 televsions series starring Robert Lansing
and Gena Rowland. This in turned produced a tie-in comic book series from Dell Comics. There was even, for a short-lived time, an Ed McBain Mystery Magazine.

Dozens of 87th Precinct books were adapted to both feature films and made-for-TV movies. The most popular being the 1972 Universal release, FUZZ, starring Burt Reynolds and Yul Brenner. The cast also included Racquel Welch, Jack Weston and Tom Skerritt. The last being a 1997 TV movie, HEATWAVE starring Dale Midkiff as the ever persisitent good-guy detective, Steve Carella. Several 87th books were even adatped to Japanese movies. Now that has to be surreal.

I discovered the 87th Precinct books somewhere in my teens. My best guess is I was a junior in high school at the time. I loved them from the start, totally amazed at how well written they were and how McBain handled characterizations. His people seem to leap off the pages into my imagination and I believed they were all real. I became a devoted fan and whenever a new 87th Precinct thriller hit the newstands, I was quick to pick it up. Over the years my devotion to them, and to Hunter, simply grew with my maturity. The more I became a writer myself, the more I understood the fantastic talent this man possessed and I purposely tried to emulate him every chance I could. He was the writer I wanted to be like.

So why am I writing all this? Because two days ago, 6th July, at the age of 78, Evan Hunter died of throat cancer in his home of Hartford, CT. The news came as a complete surprise to me and over the past two days I’ve shared my sense of loss with many of my writing colleagues, who share the same grief.
All of us have lost a true Master in the game, and a unique literary voice. Personally, the man was my hero, and will ever reamin so. His books are his legacy, those written under his own name of Evan Hunter, and those under his various pen-names. He had several: Curt Cannon, Hunt Collins, Ezra Hannon, Richard Marsten, and John Abbott. But the one that will always come to mind, when his fans remember him is of course, Ed McBain. So, if you’ve never read any of his work, do yourself a big-big favor and go find one at your local bookstore. Your are in for one major treat.

Rest in peace, Ed McBain. You earned it big time, and from this fan, thanks.

Ron, over and out.

Happy 4th of July weekend to all of you. I’m a little late getting this week’s entry up, but I’ve got a very good reason as you’ll see.

It’s no secret to anyone who knows me even a little bit, that I’m a movie fanatic. I’ve been since my dad dragged me to Saturday matinees with him from the time I was seven years old. I quickly became addicted to that big silver screen and the amazing stories it revealed to me. I thought movies were magic back then, and I still do. Well, this week two movies that will soon be released to the world at large were the focus of most of my imagination and have me really excited. One is a major special effects blockbuster due out in Dec. and the other is an unknown, little independent horror flick made entirely by a new friend.

The 1933 KING KONG is my all time favorite movie. Nothing has ever come close to doing to me what this film did when I first saw it at the age of 9. Now, all these years later, and after that ridiculously awful remake in the70s, Peter Jackson (he of the LORD OF THE RINGS miracle) is doing his own retelling of that classic yarn and this past week his studio released their first official trailer. It lasted only a few minutes but that was enough. Way enough..to see a real 1930s New York City…to see Naomi Watts wearing the exact same style clothes, down to the hat, that Fay Wray wore in the original when we first see her as Ann Darrow, starving on the cold city streets…enough to see Jack Black’s take on
movie showman, Carl Denham is near perfect…with none of over-the-top-rock & roll antics he’s known for..enough to show Skull Island as it meant to be…the dinosaurs that are REAL…and finally..the baddest, meanest, toughest..greatest giant ape of them all..KING KONG in all his magnificent primal might. My prediciton is this will not only be the movie of the year, it will ultimately be the movie of the decade. Thing is, I’m going to go ape myself waiting for Dec. to get here.

The other movie I’m thrilled about is GOD OF VAMPIRES and it was written, produced and directed by Derry, N.H. native, Rob Fitz. I met Rob last year at Atlanta’s Dragon Con and we hit it off. He’s been working of GoV for the past five years and has poured his blood, sweat, and tears into it. Two weeks ago he called to tell me he had a rough cut ready and would I like to see it? Like asking me if I like to breathe..ha. Valerie and I then invited JOHNNY RAYGUN comics creators, Matt Talbot & Rich Woodall (and their respective mates) to join us last night in viewing this amazing, bloody over-the-top indy. We had pizza and soda, socialized a bit, and then all came down to the Batcave and watched Rob’s amazing movie on my big-screen TV. When it was over, we were cheering, hooting and applauding soundly. GOD OF VAMPIRES is going to do to the horror genre what EL MARIACHI did to the actions scene years ago. Rob is of that same professional, genius caliber as Quentin Tarrentino and Robert Rodriguez. Folks, you are in for a treat. He hopes to have the film shown at Dragon Con this year (Labor Day weekend) and later, hopefully, at the Halloween Two day Comic Con in Nashua, NH. It may not even be done by then, but Rob loves the feedback from true fans of the genre. It was quite a night.

So there you have it, two very different movies, but both with same quality and heart made by people of vision, integrity and courage.
Big and small, the size never matters, it’s all about the dreams, folks, and the stuff of dreams.

Have a great holiday, Ron, over and out.

For those of you who aren’t aware of my professional history, my first comic book work
was a 12 pg. sci-fi story called DUEL IN THE STARS and it appeared in a try-out book called CHARLTON BULLSEYE. This being a product of a small Conneticut publisher, Charlton Comics. Upon that first pro appearance, then associate editor, Bill Pearson, asked artist Gary Kato, and yours truly, to keep submitting. This resulted in the creation and subsequent appearance of our comedy super-hero, MR.JIGSAW, MAN OF A THOUSAND PARTS. He took the cover spot in Charlton’s SCARY TALES # 38. Chalrton was never one of the big boys in the comics industry, but over its brief lifespan, it was the home of many gifted writers and artists and their unique and exciting line of characters. Sadly, Charlton folded a long, long time ago. Yet, whenever I
pull out those two particular comics, now aged with yellowed pages, I remember my debt to
Charlton.

Another devotee, perhaps the most knowledgeable, of this little comic outfit, is
Texan Michael Ambrose. A few years back Mike
started a magazine dedicated to the history of
the company and called it appropriately enough
CHARLTON SPOTLIGHT. In his second issue, Gary
and I contributed our recollections on our
all too brief connection with Charlton. Yesterday, the mail brought me CS #4 and it, like all the others, is a fantastic issue. In particular because it honors the memory of the late Pete Morisi, a cop by day and and comic book creator by night. In his tenure at Charlton, Morisi created two of the finest comic characters ever brought to the magic of four color adentures; PETER CANON THUNDERBOLT, and the eye-patch wearing private eye, JOHNNY DYNAMITE. Both solid winners fondly rememberd by fans around the world. I recommend this great, quality book to all lovers of American comics history. It can be had for $7.95/US –
$8.95/Canada, from Argo Press, P.O.Box 4201, Austin, TX 78765-4201. You can also check it out at Mike’s website (www.charltonspotlight.com). Tell him, Ron sent you.

Summer has finally arrived, the backyard looks half-way decent and my roses are blooming.
It’s a wonderful time of year in New England.
And Ron’s been a busy writing beaver. My graphic novel with Rob Davis, DAUGHTER OF DRACULA is now three fourths completed and is gorgeous. This is going to be Rob’s magnus opus hands down. I’m involved with something called
THE GODBOX featuring a new cartoonist named Chad Hurd that’s just too much fun. And I’m putting together a movie-tie comic called FRANK NG-HIRED GUN that involves itself with a new independent horror flick, GOD OF VAMPIRES, being done locally by a rookie movie maker named Rob Fitz.
And in just two more weeks, DIGITAL WEBBING PRESENTS #24 hits the comic shops with my Mask of the Gargoyle story. Below is a sneek peek at page one. Do not miss this one!

So that’s it for another week. The 4th is just around the corner. Take care, write when you can and have fun, life’s too short not to.
Over and out, Ron.

A package arrived at the hangar yesterday and when I opened it up, there was this bright red Incredibles telphone! And a Father’s Day card from my oldest son, Scott. He said, now that the Batcave was remodeled, I should have an official super-hero hotline. Primarily, he added, to call him whenever I have PC problems. Ha. Something I do quite often, and he bears up with very graciously. Anyways, I love this new toy to pieces. The entire rotary actually lights up when it toots. And yes, I said, toots. Exactly as it did in the movie. It is so cool. Talk about a son knowing his dad. Ha.

I got another gift this morning, this one from my daughter Michelle. It was a book on
what a father is. Obviously the answer to that is a very complex one, but in the end, it comes down to this, a father is the male foundation all of us build our lives on. What the book also points out is, what makes a father’s heart soar are his children. And in my case, I’m the luckiest dad in the world. Scott is an amazing fellow, with a great sense of humor, a loyal friend to all who know him, a devoted husband
and now great father himself. Kevin is a big hearted musician with a zest for life and all things fanciful. The tatoos that cover his body
reflect a soul that will never-ever grow old.
Alan, well, he went out to Colorado years ago
and built an amazing landscape business from scatch; Yards Elves,Inc. Lots of hard, back-breaking work, sweat and tears. That he is so successful in his community is no surprise to me, the kid has a will of steel. He’s also a loving husband
and super father as well. Those are the boys.
Michelle, whom I mentioned above, is a funny,
giving, larger-than-life force of nature that
amazes me constantly. She’s also a wonderful wife and mother. And lastly, though never least, is my princess, Heather. Strong, independent and kind hearted, she’s working on her master’s now and plows through life like a living dynamo. Am so bloody proud of her, words escape me. Of course it also helps that she’s a major Red Sox fan. Five remarkable human beings who call me Dad. If I think about it too long, it scares me, cause they are my heroes, each and every one of them. God blessed me with them and maybe someday I’ll figure out why?

Valerie and I went and see BATMAN BEGINS this afternoon. It is the best movie of the character ever done. Hands down. I was mesmerized from start to finish. The cast was
superb, the story cleverly thought out (for a change) and the directing skillful. This is the Batman I grew up reading in the comics. Thank you Warner Bros. for finally getting him right.

Finally, here’s a great shot of the old time radio hero, Captain Spectre, as done by Tom Floyd. If you aren’t reading this weekly net strip, you’re missing some classic adventures.
You can find him on my links page. Do yourselves a big favor and check it now.

And that’s it for another week, take care,
Ron. Over and out.

The illustration above is one of six done by the talented Rob Davis for the stories featured in my first pulp book, BROTHER GRIM. The book is selling well, both at the publishers and via Amazon.com, where it’s picked up several really gracious reviews. If you’ve been thinking of picking up a copy, please do. Aside from my own humble piggy bank, I’d very much like to be able to give both Rob and cover artist, Tom Floyd, a decent profit check for their fantastic efforts on this project.

Please know, I am always happy to autograph any of my books, or comics you have or will soon purchase. If you would like me to sign something, simply drop me an e-mail with that request and I will in return give you my mailing address. As long as you send your book with a self-stamped envelope for me to return it, then we’re all set.

Note, I purposely put my e-mail address in the back of BROTHER GRIM in hopes readers would send me letters in regards to the book. Feedback is always a valuable commodity in the writing game. While at recent conventions, I personally made that same plea as I gave out copies of the book. Yet in all that time, nada.
Come on folks, I sincerely do not bite. Ha. So if you’ve read either BROTHER GRIM or THE HOUNDS OF HELL, and have a few minutes, please, drop me a line and let me know your thoughts. Would you like to see more of these kind of books, or should I try other venues? I do listen to your suggestions and appreciate them greatly.

Finally, the Hollywood rumor mill has it that both Steven Spielberg and George Lucas have agreed on a script for Indiana Jones 4. Cool. Same folks say they are creating a young sidekick to play off Ford, who is obviously now a Senior Jones. All well and good, but my take on all this is, why bother? Why not go the James Bond route and simply get another young, virile actor to take on the role and keep the franchise alive. Who says that only Harrison Ford can play Indiana Jones? Think about it.

And that’s it for this week, amigos. Over and out, Ron.

Sometimes it’s the little things that escape you. When son Scott, the family PC guru, set up this site, he made a point of including the Contact button whereby any of you reading this
could easily write me, should the urge to do so overcome you in a moment of weakness. Last week, a fellow I’d met at the Newington con, wrote saying he had tried to reach me via the site only to have his e-mail returned undeliverable. Upon checking the address on the contact button with my business card, he found the error. The contact had my e-mail address as (Airship27@comcast.com) That is wrong. The suffix is dot-net…not dot.com! I immediately buzzed Scott and he corrected it promptly. Now it makes me wonder how many others have tried in vain to say hi via this bogus route. My deepest apologies, if you are one of those. Again, the link is hitched to my proper address, so drop me a line. I’d really love to hear from you.

With Spring having been cancelled this year
(I’m not kidding, if you live in New England,
you know what I’m talking about.) June has brought honest-to-goodness sunshine and warm weather. And the jungle growth that is my backward was finally mowed down yesterday. Took over 90 minutes and wiped me out. Hey, I’m pushing 59. Give me a break. But Val says it looks great and hopefully I’ll be able to get a bi-weekly routine going. We’re even talking about hitting the local nursery for some flowers over the weekend. A really good sign.

Writing-wise, I’ve been working on two new comics projects this past week. One is for a special one-shot beind done with my pal, Chris Mills, while the other is for a mini-series called THE GOD BOX. The chap who commissioned the latter wanted a script ASAP which was out of the question, as I’m way overloaded with projects right now. Still, not wanting to dissappoint people, I offered to write the scripts Marvel style and when the art comes in, let him do the dialogue scripting. I generally prefer to work full-script, but doing page-plotting is a whole lot faster for sure. Will keep you posted as to how it all comes out.

Finally, Tom Floyd has just started Chapter Two of his excellent on-line adventure strip,
CAPTAIN SPECTRE. This is such a classy, old
fashion strip, it reminds me of the greats like
FLASH GORDON and PRINCE VALIANT. Tom is doing a bang-up job with Cap. Do yourselves a favor
and check it out..over on my links page.

And that’s all she wrote for this week, amigos. Catch you in seven. Over and out,
Ron. ,/p>

I, and every other living soul in New England is fed up with this lousy weather. Here comes Memorial Day and most of us will be spending it, like every day for the past two weeks, inside. Enough is enough. If any of you know any Stop-The-Rain Dances, I would beg you to start dancing them..now!

I mentioned two weeks ago that my second pulp
novel, THE HOUNDS OF HELL, was finally out and
available from Wild Cat Books. It has been posted, along with my other books for sale, over in our Air Fare section, along with the appropriate link to help you good folks in buying a copy. And as always, thank you so much for your support in this new phase of my career.
From comics to pulps, it’s been an amazing ride and one most of you seem happy about. Trust me,
these two titles are only the beginning. I’ve several new, major pulp projects in the works that I hope you’ll be excited about when they
are announced.

And despite the awful, wet weather, I had a really great time last weekend, primarily because of two events. One being I finally made it to a local theater and saw Star Wars III –
Revenge of the Sith. And loved it!! Major thumbs up, here, friends. The movie delivered on all counts, both in action and drama and delivered an emotional punch at the end that had me wiping my eyes. I most likely will be seeing it several times. Thank you, George Lucas, for
getting it right, again.

The other fun thing was the Sunday comic book show at the Red Hook Brewerey in the Pease Tradeport in nearby, Newington,NH. Some 500 fans turned out and everyone had a blast. I got reacquainted with my old artist pal, Scot Eaton, he of the current SPIDERMAN fame. It had been over twenty-years since Scot and I hooked up and it felt like only a few days had elapsed.
He’s still the same great guy. And to all the kind folks who stopped my table and bought some comics, thanks. A special such to the several
fans who came to pick up a copy of BROTHER GRIM
because they’d read about it right here. Wow, but real site-visitor-fans. I was delighted to meet you all. Also saw old friend Randy Buccini and Digital Webbing’s own Ed Dukeshire, a guy I’ve wanted to meet for some time. A tip of the hat to the Paperback Bazaar’s Ralph DiBernardo who put on the show. Great job all around. Geez,let’s have more of these.

Now if we can only get some sunshine. Till next week, amigos, take care, Ron.

It is NOT cancer! That was the final diagnosis made by the vascular surgeon earlier this week, after comparing my latest CATscan with that taken back in March. The two anomalies on my lungs are static and have not grown. Meaning, no cancer. And a new lease on life for yours truly. As I’d mentioned previously, now we enter monitoring mode, wherein I’ll be going back every so often to
have scans done and to keep a watchful eye on those mysterious spots. But my gut tells me we are out of the woods, folks. Thank you, every single one of you, for all your prayers on my behalf. From your lips to God’s ears. I owe you all.

Likewise, was talking with son Scott, my web-designer, and he was telling me the site is
getting an average of 25 visitors a day. That is really wonderful news, and even more importantly, the average stay is 10 minutes!
Awesome. So I want to take this opportunity to
thank all of you who stop by on a regular basis
and actually read through our pages. Really nice to know you are there, and obviously enjoying what we have here. And there will be more in the near future. We are going to have an art gallery page where I’ll be posting both pin-ups and actual pages from the various comic book projects I’m currently working on. Lots of really great visuals for you to enjoy. Give us a few weeks, we want to keep you coming back on a regular basis.

This next section should be called BEER AND COMICS. Ha. Those of you who live in the New England area, pay close attention. There will be a one day comic book blow-out at the Red Hook
Brewery Convention Center at the nearby Pease
Tradeport Center in Newington, a little town
connected to Portsmouth, this Sunday, 22nd May. Peter Laird and his Mirage Studio Crew will be on hand to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles debut at a Portsmouth one day show all those many years ago. 25 seems to be this week’s lucky number. Scot Eaton from Marvel will be on hand, including the JOHNNY RAYGUN team, writer Christopher Golden and of course, yours truly. I’m told it’s going to be a rainy day, so why not drive on down and join the fun.
Looks to be a really fun show.

Finally, believe it or not, I haven’t seen
STAR WARS III – REVENGE OF THE SITH …yet!
Something I hope to correct this very afternoon, ha. From what I’m hearing on the web-vine, from bonafide SW nerds, this one is really good. Or
as cartoonist Scott Kurtz put it, “It does not
suck!” Ha.

My latest pulp THE HOUNDS OF HELL, is selling
extremely well. Look for a link in our AIR FARE column within the next few days. For those of you who’ve already ordered a copy, thanks.
Please drop me a line a line and let me know what you thought of my pulp cross-over pastiche.
It was much fun to write. I pray it is as much fun to read. And lots more of that on the way.
What with the good medical news, I’m totally
charged up with new ideas and eager to get busy.

Have a great week, over and out, Ron.

Woke up this morning, Friday 13th, to learn that my newest pulp novel, THE HOUNDS OF HELL, is now officially on sale at Lulu.com, the same fine folks who brought you BROTHER GRIM a few months ago. All, of course through Ron Hanna’s marvelous Wild Cat Books. Check it out, HOH is, to the best of my knowledge, the first ever pulp crossover novel. Meaning, the story brings together characters who appeared regularly in two different pulp magazines of the 1930s. The Moon Man, a sort of Robin Hood figure, starred in TEN DETECTIVE ACES, whereas the villainous Dr.Satan was featured in a half dozen stories that appeared in WEIRD TALES. Now, their paths cross, as the Moon Man is all that stands between the evil madman and his latest attack on mankind. Like GRIM, it will also be sold through Barnes & Nobles online and Amazon.com, in a couple of weeks.

I had a great time visiting the folks at the Paperback Bazaar last week on Free Comic Book Day, both personally and professionally. You see that visit landed me two new writing
jobs; one for a graphic novel and the other for a regular on-going series. I’m not at liberty to spill the beans here, amigos, but as soon as
things are ready for public notices, you’ll read them here. Promise.

Lately, thanks in part to my review column,
PULP FICTION, I’ve been reading some really great books. Not just good, but truly exceptional stuff that entertained me a great deal. Please, do check out that column if you’re looking for good books to take to the lake or beach this summer. Again, the logo to
PF is above this column, click on it and dig in.
You’ll be glad you did.

Finally, only six more days for STAR WARS III-REVENGE OF THE SITH. Am really looking forward to this last, and most likely the darkest entry to date of George Lukas’s mega-saga. Annakin’s corruption to the Dark Side is a tragic story in the classic myth sense, but knowing that it will ultimately lead to his resurrection in RETURN OF THE JEDI, makes it palatable. For in the end,
the entire six part epic is truly about him;
his beginnings, temptations, fall from grace and in the end, glorious salvation via his son’s abiding love. And it’s also a grand, space opera too boot! Get the popcorn ready, I’m
ready for to blast off!

You all take care and have a great weekend,
over and out..Ron
