Another pop cultural fantastic bestiary Sunday. Anybody remember the movie Avatar? Not the kung-fu fantasy one, the tribal sci-fi one. The James Cameron’s Avatar as it was marketed. I still remember it being the movie that REALLY set the standard for what CGI technology can do cinematically, making this ...

Poem nr 3: Equinox
Until it showed me pain. Until it showed its vein. Until it shows me sane.
In time. In rhyme.
Expose the tail.
And the blood be sealed.
Helixfinger Out!
Fantastic Bestiary 9: The Wookie
Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, June 5, 2022
In this newspost I thought I’d start breaking away from myth a little bit. So far I’ve brought up species and entities from myth and legend, but this is not a series of articles that is just about mythical fiction, but also popular fiction. So! Wookies! Absolutely iconic ...

Anyone that has written or read fanfiction knows that the AU is the Alternate Universe: the placement of a given set of characters that come from a specific IP or franchise or book or movie into a completely different setting, timeline, or even genre.

Fantastic Bestiary 6: The Oni
Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, May 15, 2022
And we’re back with Fantastic Bestiary number 6. Being the number 6 in this series of articles I thought I’d bring up a mythic creature of a particularly devilish kind of aestethic. And as this week’s featured comic, featured by our beloved Ozoneocean, happened to be about ...

To be honest, I didn't really want to talk about The Book of Boba Fett or Star Wars again in this post.
But nothing else is coming to mind at the moment, and this show has been on my mind, so here we are again!
Many have complained about ...
