It is LUCY's Birthday!

I was lucky enough to pick this up at WIZARD WORLD years ago... ME TV has her on all weekend in Chicago BUT if you can, pick up the complete series on DVD. The remastered prints blow away what they show on ME TV, TV LAND or any other channel and you can watch episodes in the later seasons with the original open/closes and commercial billboards.

CARMINE INFANTINO




One of my favorites! The Murphy Anderson inking played a big role too!


from SDCC




My late, great friend BOB McFADDEN was the voice of FRANKENBERRY and he even did a voice mail message for me as FRANKENBERRY! We are adding a FRANKENBERRY commercial at the end of the SOAKY DVD!




Listed these on EBAY....didn't know I had an extra set!

evel knievel TOYS


These were pretty cool too! Josh has the van :)

Ice Bird commercial


My friend CHARLES from FLASHBACK shared this! I must have seen this commercial hundreds of times as a kid and I remember wanting this :) Olan Soule (BATMAN) does the voice over.

HALLMARK

We were at HALLMARK today and they have a great, new line of CHRISTMAS ornaments...including the 1966 BATMOBILE (Which plays the theme song BUT it sounds re-recorded). They also used the wrong, 1970's logo on the box BUT still very cool! There are a few RANKIN/BASS ornaments this year of RUDOLPH & FROSTY. There is also a line of beautiful PEANUTS statues that include SNOOPY in his astronaut outfit and CHARLIE BROWN flying a kite (Looks right out of the VIEW-MASTER).

I have a NEW favorite book....

75 YEARS OF DC COMICS: THE ART OF MODERN MYTHMAKING by Paul Levitz Winner of an EISNER AWARD! GIANT pages of DICK SPRANG, STEVE RUDE, ALEX ROSS, BRUCE TIMM, CURT SWAN, GIL KANE, MURPHY ANDERSON, CARMINE INFANTINO and the clincher...giant pages of the BATMAN TV series! Love the box packaging too (With handle)! Who could ask for anything more?
