Reports came in from the New York Comic-Con that Wonder Woman would join Batman in having a digital comic based on the live-action TV show that made them famous. My problem is the announced release schedule, which is kind of lame. Still, it’s the only time someone realized how to do Wonder Woman right in live-action form (in cartoons you have Super Friends, Justice League, and the guest appearance in the Ruby/Spears Superman cartoon), so maybe it will spark some ideas. Hopefully better ones than we’re getting for Diana in any current format.
This battle does not happen in the comic.

Yes, the title is below par. It was intended as a placeholder. Then the car accident happened and getting this done on time wasn’t my highest priority for a while.
And you thought it was bad audio on the production end.
Okay, I exaggerated how bad the audio was, but it was the best joke I could come up with. Plus I explained why the vocal quality went down. ADR? What’s that?
- The Clutter Reports: You know all those items I said I wanted to get rid of in my clutter reviews? Well, it’s high time I did that. I put together a sell page on the site so I can sell off some of this stuff since my PayPal is still too empty for me to try to use eBay. (I don’t think that’s a rule, I want something there just in case.) It’s another way to help me out besides the Patreon or PayPal donation links in the sidebar.
- Reviewers Unknown: In what will probably be the last video posting to RU before it closes down, and if you missed it here yesterday, the BW Press Junket welcomes Pinky and the Brain themselves, Rob Paulsen and Maurice LaMarche
Speaking of money, I didn’t get any new comics this week and I don’t know when I will again with my current finances. So more old comics until I can. Sorry, folks.

Maurice LaMarche has played some popular characters. The example popping into my head is Egon Spangler in The Real Ghostbusters and Extreme Ghostbusters. Rob Paulsen played Raphael (a bit more snark and less rage than the original comic) in the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon and Donatello in the new Nickelodeon version. At the 2014 ConnectiCon press junket, the two discussed their careers including the two characters from the show they’re lately most known for: Pinky And The Brain!

The new Friday Night Fight tournament begins! This time it’s “Ghost” in honor of boxer Kelly Robert Pavlik, who had that nickname. Just in time for Halloween…although the Prize Fight will be somewhere closer to Thanksgiving.
And it’s only because it’s the start of a new tournament that I’m doing anything tonight. If you follow me on Twitter you know I had a little problem yesterday and my other problems are making that worse. Luckily nobody is injured or dead, so there’s that. Still, if I get a vote tonight it’s because someone agrees with me that this Hostess ad supervillain deserved a chance at full comic status.
“Ghost” round 1
