Just the Ticket

Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. The Omnibuster. Death never takes a vacation, Ticketholders! That is, unless he takes it from the living.... In belated honor of the release of the new Bloodlines entry, I thought I'd take a break this week (still puns!) from Grimm Fairy Tales to look at one of Zenescope Entertainment 's early side projects: Final Destination ! They've done a few licensed tie-ins over the years, including Spike TV 's "we have The Darwin Awards at home" masterpiece, 1,000 Ways To Die , a two-"Season" continuation of the original Charmed , and Se7en . They even did a bit of their own, legally distinct,  Final Destination -esque storytelling with the No Tomorrow series (which I will get to eventually). But the company's short partnership with New Line Cinema began in 2006 when they released a One-Shot, limited edition comic that was bundled with seventy-five thousand release day copies of Final Destination 3 (the multiple-choi...

Article by Wilkinson D. Sean, Master Of Tickets, Meister Of Anime. I've yet to watch an episode of the ridiculously long Dressrosa arc, as I've been going back through the Punk Hazard episodes to capture screenshots for this review, so expect a long wait before the next piece of the One Piece Multi-Piece . As I said in the June 8 edition of Time Drops , I'm focusing on My Hero Academia next. After departing Fishman Island and engaging in some filler that I kind of wish I had watched because Giant Luffy (and according to Totally Not Mark in his 100% Blind Review , the anime episode from Fishman Island where they resurface amidst what could be Laboon's old pod, and which was marked as Filler , is the opening of this arc in the manga), the Straw Hats have returned to the surface (still with no Jinbei, and not heading straight for Big Mom as we were promised before, and therefore sailing aimlessly at the whim of Nami's new, multiple choice Log Pose and Luffy's d...

Content Calendar Announcement, Week of June 15, 2025 by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. The Ticketmaster. So...I said some stuff on Reddit last week that was angry and mean because my life and my country don't make sense right now. It wasn't anything cancelable because I'm not that kind of person, but it did hurt some people's feelings, and I apologize for basically triggering my own toxic insecurities in others because while I am passionate and capable of savage creativity in defense of what matters to me, I am the kind of person who knows that taking a passionate defense too far is wrong. I love sharing myself and my opinions, so in part to make it up to those I have wronged (and because I already planned to do it anyway and I love watching numbers go brrrr...), I've packed this coming week with some awesome surprises that aren't surprises if you've read my A Drink and A Tale review to the end and won't be surprises once you read the content calendar below.  ...

Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. The Ticketmaster. Like I said at the end of last week's post , this marks the end of my Volume Eleven reviews from the Trade Paperback issues, as there was no short story included. I'll be doing something special and Omnibusted for next week before getting back to the Grimm Universe with Volume Twelve. The twist comes about because of a fairly recent movie, and because I got confused when I looked ahead into Volume Twelve and saw that today's issue up for review was also reprinted as the first issue there to fill out the Trade's page count. The next order of business is to say that I once again did what I always do when an issue has a title so that I have more to talk about. In addition to the "it does what it says on the tin" definition of "A Drink and A Tale" that Gemini over-elaborated on for me because it's intelligence is artificial, I also found information on a semi-relevant Scottish fairy tale that I w...
