TPB A DAY 23: Jonny Quest Volume 1: Time Flies - YAY!

YAY - Whenever an old series (in this case, a Saturday morning cartoon) gets new material (in this case, a comic book), there’s always a fear that it’ll be radicalized or just plain lame! THANKFULLY, this book is neither! Instead, it’s a fun read that honors the style, charm, and flavor of the original cartoon. If you’re a fan of the TV series, chances are you’ll be a fan of this comic, too!

TINY NOTE: My only minor criticism is that, given the story’s potential, I wish the emotional depth and impact had gone a little further.

DORK PLAN: I’m going to read one TPB a day from my 5,000+ strong TPB collection. I’ll post the one I read here the next day with a YAY or NAY, and maybe a line or two about what I thought. NOTE: Got a TPB you want me to read? Drop it in the comments! If I have it, I’ll give it a review.

STAR WARS Super 8mm Films

First Home Viewing: Before home video formats existed, Ken Films distributed 200ft and 400ft edited digest reels of Star Wars: A New Hope and later Empire Strikes Back.

Format Options: Buyers could choose from black-and-white silent, color silent, or premium color with sound versions. These reels featured selected highlights like the Cantina sequence and the destruction of the Death Star rather than the complete feature film.

Ken Films went out of business in 1982 due to the sudden explosion of the home video boom (VHS and Betamax). Because Return of the Jedi didn't hit theaters until 1983, Ken Films was already gone before they could secure the rights or print a condensed version. They only ever completed digest reels for A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back

  

Other Media: Kenner also offered a hand-cranked plastic Movie Viewer using short 8mm film cassettes.

Lanterns & Surf Dracula

CLICK THE IMAGE TO WATCH

Surf Dracula is an internet meme and media trope that describes how modern streaming-era television shows and movies drag out or delay their core premise through long, drawn-out origin stories instead of delivering the promised action right away.

The term was coined on X (formerly Twitter) by user @topherflorence on October 7, 2021 - 

"Back in the day if u did a TV show called Surf Dracula you'd see that fool surfing every week. But in the streaming era the entire 1st season gotta be a long ahh flashback to how he got the surfboard until you finally get to see him surf for 5 min in the finale."
