The Last Patrol Review
Batman, The Brave and The Bold is what superhero cartoons should be all about. Notice the use of the word and not the more highbrow word because the fine folks at B fully embrace the Saturday morning cartoony-ness of this show.
Sure Batman (and Superman) the Animated Series,[url=http://woolrichelitewaterproof.blogspot.com/][b]http://woolrichelitewaterproof.blogspot.com/[/b][/url], were brilliant pieces of entertainment,[url=http://duveticaitaly.albirank.net/][b]Duvetica italy[/b][/url], and they also delighted in playing for laughs on occasion,[url=http://monclerjackenoutletch.albirank.net/][b]Moncler Weste Billig Moncler Jacken Outlet Moncler Outlet Österreich[/b][/url], but there has never been a show to affectionately blend the the aforementioned influences along with the overly earnestness of the old Johnny Quest,[url=http://cheapnikesoccercleatsmercurial.webmium.com/][b]nike soccer cleats mercurial Discount Soccer Cleats[/b][/url], welcome the corniness of The Superfriends, and include the drama and pathos of classic anime.
Sadly I feel this show has been overlooked or wrongly dismissed by those who only see it as an updated version of the old Adam West/Burt Ward program. While the creatives on this show obviously have much love and respect for the 60 live action program,[url=http://duveticaitaly.albirank.net/][b]Duvetica Piumini italy[/b][/url], (and deservedly so) the B works on many different levels, but since I mentioned it, lets go to the iconic and campy show.
I loved the wink to Yvonne Craig Batgirl,[url=http://duveticaoutletcanada.halod.com/][b]duvetica down jackets men sale[/b][/url], right down to her spunky and earnest line reading lifted directly from the 45 year old script, Batman, that would be telling. It was also a delight to see the version of the classic Silver Age Penguin,[url=http://duveticaitaly.albirank.net/][b]DUVETICA Piumini Italy Vendita Duvetica Online Duvetica Sale Duvetica Coats Shop[/b][/url], even if he only cackled for 3 seconds of screen time. Naturally though if we talking about classics of the Silver Age, we have to discuss the stars of Friday show,[url=http://merrellshoesonsaleformen.blogspot.com/][b]http://merrellshoesonsaleformen.blogspot.com/[/b][/url], the Doom Patrol.
The fact that many comic book fans don realize is DCs Doom Patrol predates Marvel better-known X-Men by 3 months, and many have long suspected that the one and only Stan the Man Lee out and out ripped off the Doom Patrol as he most likely had a mole on the DC staff. Similar claims have been made against Lee in the case of the Fantastic Four and DC The Challenger of the Unknown.
And since we giving a comics history lesson,[url=http://duveticaoutletcanada.halod.com/][b]http://duveticaoutletcanada.halod.com/[/b][/url], it worth pointing out that this story is very similar to the last issue of the Silver Age Doom Patrol in which our freakishly mutated heroes sacrifice themselves for the sake of the fictional island community of Codsville. It was the first account of a comic book ending its run by killing off the main characters.
This modern day retelling of the dysfunctional super group gave us versions of overweight Elastic-girl, a suicidal Robotman, played by Punk icon Henry Rollins) and a down on his luck Negative Man (with a poster cameo of Beast Boy) and of course,[url=http://cheapsoccercleatswithfreeshipping.webmium.com/][b]http://cheapsoccercleatswithfreeshipping.webmium.com/[/b][/url], the original wheelchair bound mutant leader,[url=http://duveticaouterwear.blogspot.com/][b]duvetica outerwear[b][/url], Doctor Niles Caulder.
Sadly B is in its last season, but I hold out hope it will catch on in popularity in reruns and eventually garner the respect it so properly deserves. The creative crew on this show are crafting their masterpiece as a labor of love, and that passion shows through.
The bigger crime than the brave, bold and tormented heroes who were murdered on an island by the dastardly General Zahl is that this distinguished program has not been picked up for three more years.
I agree,[url=http://duveticaoutletcanada.halod.com/][b]duvetica jackets canada online[/b][/url], wholeheartedly. B B is a 21st Century Saturday morning cartoon, in the best sense. While it's well written and voiced,[url=http://duveticaitaly.albirank.net/][b]Duvetica Sale[/b][/url], it embraces the silliness of costumed superheroes fighting outlandish villains with glee and humour. It's not every cartoon that can balance fun and heroic sacrifice in one episode.
The kid in me loves seeing all the B and C list heroes from the DC library (seriously,[url=http://merrellshoesonsaleformen.blogspot.com/][b]merrell shoes on sale for men[/b][/url], who EVER thought they'd see Detective Chimp anywhere but in the comics?) brought to life,[url=http://billigtmonclerdunjackastockholmrea.olimx.com/][b]Billigt Moncler Dunjacka Stockholm Rea Moncler Jacka Sverige Online Outlet[/b][/url], while the serious comic book geek in me gets jazzed by a cartoon that doesn't shy away from heroes dying to save others.
