Shark Week

If you have payed any attention to media in the last 72 hours, then you have probably stumbled upon Shark Week. Yes, all of that fun knowledge that you have come to expect from the Discovery channel. Except for that whole Megalodon thing. Some people still think it was real. Even after the backlash. There was a Mermaid thing a little while back that did the same thing. You want to ask, “oh people, when will you ever learn?” but really this is something that should’t have aired. Just cold hard facts about the Megalodon is what your fans ask of you. Even if you said something like,”It had the strongest bite of any living creature ever.” it would still be exaggerating because that isn’t a solid fact. Great whites(closest relative to the Megalodon) don’t really have that strong of a bite, all of the force is from them shaking their whole body to saw with their teeth.

Deinosuchus(An almost 40 foot long ancient croc) would probably take the cake on that bite force thing. There will probably be a “TOTALLY REAL SCIENCE SPECIAL” about this guy next year at Discovery if they ever decide to do this again.

Thanks for scaring the poop out of your audience Discovery.

Gone Fishin’

AND WE’RE BACK!

I went deep sea fishing while I was away. I did not get sea sick, but about five out of the nineteen people who were on the boat did. I thought it was a seal at first, then the captain came up to us and said not to go near the “Medical Bay”. I have not come down with the sea sickness, but when someone makes those barfy noises, it can get to me. For some reason it didn’t get to me while I was on this particular boat ride. It might have been because the sick people were on the opposite side of the boat.

Manga Style #3

As I have mentioned before, this Manga Style is a satire. I LOVE ANIME AND MANGA, and all of the video games that use these kinds of art styles. But not all anime is complex and deep. There are the animes that all of us are probably guilty of watching, the “I’m the most powerful man in the world/universe!” where the characters pump themselves up like big buff balloons with muscles that defy anatomy. These series are also known for their extreme adult oriented over and undertones. Then they do their little movements, then a burst of energy usually fires from their hands(and this isn’t JUST the anime we could all name right here and now that is the most guilty). These “bursts of power” also usually take entire episodes to prepare, which is to show the viewer exactly how powerful and draining these special attacks can be, OR its to waste time making full episodes with very little to no animation.

With this particular comic the villain is shaking his fist violently to build up power before firing off his ice beam power. If some of these action oriented series didn’t focus on how super macho powerful the main characters are(including the weird sexual tones that seem to weave their way in and out of the plots), then this comic wouldn’t make much sense.

Manga Style #4

Two MS comics in a row!? Yes, I will try to wrap up the story line(however existent it is) for this episode before I start another project.

This kind of goes with the one you saw last week. Just dudes showing off who is better. And if I have to bridge these scenes with more comic later I’ll do it. But for right now here is #4!
