I don’t even care to caption this.
That was pretty much my mood this week. Some annoying stuff happened. I didn’t get to do that “read a day” thing I mentioned on last week’s Clutter Report, so I read them all this week. Now I just have a magazine and some other papers to go through.
This week we continue the Art Soundoff Challenge, and I think I have some interesting topics. I’ll also be introducing you to the other participants for this year’s challenge and hopefully I’ll work on the next BW Panelling video from ConnectiCon 2016, which shouldn’t have any audio issues. We’ll also be finishing the main Devil’s Due Voltron series (there’s still a miniseries to go through), including a look at the final story that was only released with the Omnibus in a Scanning My Collection article, followed by a review in two weeks on The Clutter Reports because I want to get to the Transformer I didn’t get to review this week. I’m going to miss Devil’s Due Voltron, but hopefully you guys won’t miss this week.
I never had the chance to make that updated intro. Heck, it took this long to get to the first of three panels I was able to record during my brief stay at ConnectiCon 2016 and this is over a year after that. Don’t worry, I’ll remind you (and catch up the new people) why it had to be. Also, I had some audio issues for reasons I explain the beginning. The other two panels shouldn’t have any trouble, and I found one from 2013 I thought was lost. So there are more panels to come.
The fan panel “Star Trek Beyond 50” is a bit outdated. Star Trek Discovery is already out there, as the Star Trek Online expansion mentioned. And I’ve already gone over some of the fan film problems they’ve had. But somewhere in there you might find something interesting that you didn’t know about the Star Trek franchise. Again, sorry for the early audio failure, and the other panels will be in better shape. I think I only posted it for that reason…and to not give 2016 the full satisfaction of not posting it at all. Enjoy.
And you thought you had issues with technology.

“War Games” part 1
WRITER: Mark Millar
PENCILER: Aluir Amancio
INKER: Terry Austin
COLORIST: Marie Severin
LETTERER: Lois Buhalis
ASSISTANT EDITOR: Frank Berrios
EDITOR: Mike McAvennie
Songbird, formerly the villain Screaming Mimi, lost her sonic scream but gained a costume that can turn her sounds into solid constructs of sound. Imagine her working with a Green Lantern or possibly Star Saphire’s solid light constructs. She’d be a walking rave! And it’s a good thing this fight doesn’t demand a roundhouse punch or kick, because this is easily the best fight I looked at this week.
You see, she’s always been the shy one of the false superhero team known as the Thunderbolts, cautious and unsure of her skills. So naturally she’s the only one running loose in the citadel of the Elements Of Doom and has to save her friends from being turned into elemental zombies. This is not going to be a good day for her, is it?
Sorry, folks. I thought I prepped this for this morning, but I didn’t. It’s been that kind of week.
