With a new Doom Patrol about to hit DC3 (the third DC Universe, my term) Comic Book Resources takes a look at the history of the teams using that name, including the original, more famous lineup.
That might not be Cass’s current outfit but I think it’s cool and I couldn’t find an Orphan photo that wasn’t her dead daddy.
I’m not sure why Clayface suddenly reformed and joined the team. Since they made Riddler a bad guy again (I blame Gotham, so another reason to dislike that show) I wonder why didn’t go with Killer Croc. I thought he was trying to protect at least certain people now. This shows how little attention I get to pay lately.
Thanks to the ConnectiCon videos and medical appointments almost every day this week, plus it being too hot to get the drive to do stuff, I didn’t get a Clutter Report done because I didn’t do any cleaning. I know what my next cleaning project is but I still want to do a review. Only one doctor visit this week and only one video, with a bit more editing and research I grant you, next on the schedule so hopefully I’ll get something done.
I don’t have time to play Pokemon Go, although I have put it on my phone’s wishlist from the app store, but I hear stories that are fun, funny, and occasionally tragic, sometimes in a good way (finding a dead body helps missing persons although it means a loved one has died and they had to see a dead body) and bad (“hey, there’s Pokemon here and I’m totally not going to mug you”) but overall I think it’s a good game. It gets kids out of the house, meet other players, and learn a bit about their community or wherever they’re vacationing at. Just watch where you go. Using an old game meant for older players means finding Pokemon in seedier places. (“Are you recording our strippers?” “No, just catching a Bulbasaur.”) Play with caution, people.

It is the last video from the one day I went to the 2016 ConnectiCon. If I HAD gone to the dance (I was too tired, seeing as I’m still basically recovering and walking around like this is exhausting) I might have needed a fourth video. This video features my favorite shot of the whole set. See if you can guess what it is.

Adventures Of The X-Men started out as X-Men Adventures, adaptations of Fox Kids cartoon. This series however, went it’s own direction. At least it wasn’t trying to be the mainstream Marvel continuity but not. I’m not sure how that works either, but it’s what DC did with their tie-in comics. In today’s fight Quicksilver goes up against Storm and Cyclops. It will be a quick fight, but not the way you think.
“Gene” round 12

With all of the talk of Ghostbusters lately, one of the stories flying around is how Ernie Hudson got robbed of making Winston Zeddmore as much a part of the team as everyone else. Was his part really shortened when he replaced Eddie Murphy? Brian Cronin separates fact from fiction.

Rendering issues caused this to be late, but here it is. And it turns out I had enough footage (I’m limiting these videos to around 30 minutes) for at least a third video. So here is part two of…possibly three, maybe more?

And it gets kookier, Arthur. At least according to our Friday Night Fight master of ceremonies Fred of Spacebooger.com. In this installment of “Technology Tuesday”, Fred examines a device Aquaman uses to save the United Nations…and whether or not it could actually work.
