Just the Ticket

Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. the Ticketmaster. I am not Steve! I have never played Minecraft . I will never play Minecraft . I will not watch the Minecraft movie. Lego for life! But I do like peaches , pandas , Tenacious D , and Goosebumps . Enough Jack Black references; it's time to stop being a Shallow Hal and get back to The Holiday ...by which I mean Halloween! I've given myself plenty of Goosebumps this R.L. Stine October , and it's time to also give my thoughts on the Goosebumps movies, which is fine to do on a Thursday instead of a Friday because nostalgia. So happy Throwback Thursday, happy TBT Anniversary, have a happy and Haunted Halloween , and please remember to  Become A Ticketholder  if you haven't already, comment your thoughts on the  Goosebumps  movies at the bottom of this post, help out my ad revenue so I don't accidentally end the world with stolen Stephen King manuscripts, and follow me on  Tumblr ,  Reddit ,  Facebook ...

Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. the Omnibuster. I've previously reviewed and summarized today's issues in GFT Retrospective #20 and #21 , when I was doing the Trade Paperbacks in a mix of continuity and publication order, including the chronologically jumbled  Different Seasons  trades. Different Seasons Volume 2 As a reminder,  Different Seasons  is the title given to trade paperbacks that contain special issues of  Grimm Fairy Tales , such as Annuals and holiday editions (Christmas, Halloween, etc.). The first of these that I revisited in the early days of the Retrospective was  Volume 2  because Zenescope bundled their issues out of order, not including the first Annual in a  Different Seasons  Trade until  Volume 2 . As for why they compiled things this way? Well, that’s like a child asking a blind man why the sky is blue. It just is, whether you can see the sky or know what the color blue is or not. I doubt  they  ev...

Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. Animeister & DAIMA fan. This will be a thing I do at least through February 2025, considering that the expected initial episode count for Dragon Ball DAIMA  is 20. In the meantime, I will still be working on other AniMonday content, such as Spotlight  updates for That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime , Natsume's Book Of Friends , My Hero Academia , and good titles I mentioned in Spotlightning Round (Part III)  and (Part IV) . There's also my Fishman Island part of the One Piece Multi-Piece , and new Anime Spotlight  titles like Seirei Gensouki: Spirit Chronicles . But until then, it's time for jabs and silly jokes in DAIMA Wonderland, so please  give me your energy and grant my wish by  clicking the Follow button to  Become A Ticketholder  if you haven't already, commenting at the bottom of this post, helping out my ad revenue as you read so I don't get shrunken by evil forces, and following me on  Tum...

Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. the Ticketmaster Welcome to the week to come, Ticketholders! Despite repeating myself about not wanting to repeat myself, not much of the intro here will change. Just know that the date went better than expected,  Daima is good but slow, the  Goosebumps movies are okay (more elaboration on Thursday), and the analytics are back to normal. Work was slow and very trying and tiring, the winter cuts are beginning, the committee of legally distinct  Inside Out -inspired Variants of myself that turn the reels of self-defeatist dialogue in my head are still hard at work, and I'm still the only one writing, editing, and promoting this supposedly outdated, not for profit hobby of mine at almost midnight because I "closed my eyes for a minute." That said, I'm keeping up pretty well. With the second biggest hurdle behind me ( the 1995  Goosebumps  show ) and the biggest personal challenge ahead of me (besides driving, clearing my debt,...

Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. The Natural Ticketmaster "Natural" can mean many things, Ticketholders! It can refer to flavors and colors derived from non-chemical sources, aesthetic beauty achieved without the aid of cosmetics, being born "cut out for" doing a certain task..., or full nudity. I won't tell you which of those meanings apply to me at this moment, but I will tell you that the remaining five issues in Volume Ten are referred to as the Mother Nature arc. Art by Elias Chatzoudis , edited by me using PhotoRoom . Pretty much all polytheistic and pagan cultures had or have a Mother Nature or Mother Earth figure in their pantheon, so it's better for my sanity to just link  the Wikipedia page  rather than go through everything here like I would if I was covering a simple fairy tale adaptation. Also, the concept of "human nature" was the subject of  The Scorpion and the Frog ,  so check out that post for a refresher on that issue. I've...
