pity poor Godzilla 1978

I was rather excited when I saw the ads for The Godzilla Power Hour in the comic books.  It looked pretty good.  There were some interviews published right before the show debuted in Starlog or some genre zine, which made it sound decent.  By then I knew that there would not be a lot of great monster action, so I did not expect that.  Jana of the Jungle looked good, and at age 13, I appreciated it on a whole 'nother level.  The first episode I remember seeing was The Earth Eater, which is technically the second episode.  I am not sure if I missed the first one (seems odd, dontcha think?) or if the local network started differently.  I don't ever remember seeing the first episode at all, though.  There is a reason for that as well, because of course there is.  And I will elaborate more about that reason after the cut, so click on "there's more" please!

Happy Halloween- Rex fears Emi!

Happy Halloween!  Since we talk about monsters year 'round, we thought a picture of the only creature a Tyrannosaurus rex fears would be appropriate.  Here is Emerald Sage letting Rex know who the boss is around these parts.  She was actually giving him a chomp on the head with her leg in the air like she just don't care, but the obstinate tortie in her decided to ruin that shot.  So we get this one, which is still pretty darn cute.  Of course, every shot of her is pretty darn cute, I must say.

HOTW- Raven

 

From here- origin: When T.H.U.N.D.E.R. developed a flight suit, they wanted someone to wear it who would not suffer any form of vertigo.  Under his professional name of the Raven, Lawson had been an acrobat, sky-diver and gymnast; moreover, he has unusually acute sight and hearing.  Thus, he was tagged for the job.  At first, Lawson intended to steal the suit and sell it to the highest bidder.  However, when Lightning saves his life on an outing, he has a change of heart and decides to work with the agents.  Raven's costume changed virtually with every issue.  Equipped with glider wings, rocket jets, golden bird claws and metal wings to form a bullet-proof pod, to be used as a battering ram or to create an airtight "cone".  Over time, Raven was given "claws," a laser unit on the back of each glove, the rays of which were capable of slicing through metal or stunning adversaries.  Back to me:

From Wiki- Kara Zor-El (Supergirl) also known by her adoptive names of Linda Lee, Kara Kent, Linda Lang, and Kara Danvers, is a superheroine appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. She was created by Otto Binder and designed by Al Plastino. Danvers first appeared in the story "The Supergirl from Krypton" in Action Comics #252 (May 1959).

During the 1980s and the revolution of the Modern Age of Comics, Superman editors believed the character's history had become too convoluted, thus killing Supergirl during the 1985 Crisis on Infinite Earths event and retconning her out of existence.  Back to me-

Dinosaur Research Center, Woodland Park, CO

I spent two days in Colorado Springs this week, and the first day I went to this very interesting place.  It is about 30 minutes into to the mountains in the very picturesque town of Woodlands Park, population 8000.  The drive up there was lovely, I must say.  It was a beautiful day, and I had a nice lunch before I got there.  I kinda wish I had eaten up there though, but I was the hungry.  There will be a more detailed review on the podcast today (episode 300!) with pictures and video, but here is a brief overview of the place.

HOTW- Devil Dinosaur

 

From Wiki- The young Devil Dinosaur was nearly burned to death by a tribe of Killer-Folk, hostile beings native to his planet, but was rescued by Moon-Boy, a young member of a rival tribe, the Small-Folk. Exposure to the Killer-Folk's fire activated a mutation in the dinosaur which gave him powers greater than others of his species and turned his skin red.^[10] Devil's early adventures on his home world include encounters with extraterrestrials and a brief teleportation to modern day Earth.^[11]  Later, Godzilla rampages through the Marvel Universe (Earth-616). In an attempt to stop the monster, S.H.I.E.L.D. shrinks Godzilla with Pym Particles and attempts to teleport him via a time machine to the prehistoric past. However, Godzilla's radiation apparently distorts the time machine so that he is transported to the alternative universe of Dinosaur World instead. While there, he briefly unites with Moon-Boy and Devil against a common foe before being pulled back to the main Marvel continuity.

After some talk he convinced her to come with him and together with a good friend to many Kamen Riders, Tobee Tachibana they fought the Black Satan as Kamen Rider Stronger and the Electronic Wave Humanoid Tackle for quite some time. Over time she fell in love with him. But sadly Yuriko gave her life to defeat the evil Dr. Kate in order to save Shigeru from being poisoned. This would forever haunt him and pushed him to undergo surgery in order attain the even more powerful (and dangerous) Charge Up form.

One of the cool things (and useful things) about the internet is finding promotional material for various movies and shows.  It really helps with the published Xenorama- I can find all kinds of cool illustrations.  The King Kong Show was premiered on night time television- back when the networks could air any show any time.  This was pretty bold, but a great idea.  It was two parts as well, which is also very unique for the time frame.  My father may very well have watched it, which may be the reason my sainted mother knows the theme song.  I do wish the entire series had been released on DVD, instead of just two volumes.  I could live without Tom of T.H.U.M.B. though.  More dinosaurs, giant apes, monsters and robots!

I do enjoy this version.  This last episode had Batman going to a carnival looking for missing kids, at least three of whom were Robin variations.  Dickie, Jace, Carrie and maybe this Steph.  I dunno.  I didn't know the "villain" in this episode, aside from Rupert Thorne.  I still feel bad for Harvey, though.

HOTW- Golden Girl

From Wiki- Betsy Ross is a character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby, the character first appeared in Captain America Comics #1 (March 1941).^[1] Betsy Ross is Captain America's early love interest and supporting character in American comic books published by Marvel Comics during the 1930-1940s period known to historians and collectors as the Golden Age of Comic Books. She then debuted as the superheroine Golden Girl in Captain America Comics #66 (April 1948).  Immediately before and during most of World War II, Elizabeth (then known as Betty) Ross was a member of the U.S. Army's Women's Auxiliary Army Corps, and had previously worked as a waitress and later an FBI agent. She became a friend and eventual girlfriend of Army Private Steve Rogers, unaware of his dual identity as Captain America, whom she admired and who had saved her on more than one occasion. She was kind and resourceful, but not especially strong at first. Betsy investigated fortune tellers Sando and Omar and exposed them as spies. In issue #6 (Sept. 1941), she was captured by the Imperial Japanese spy known as Fang along with Bucky, but was rescued by Captain America. After the attack on Pearl Harbor and the United States' official entry into the war, she soon became involved in more missions that had her opposing Nazi and Imperial Japanese forces. Over the course of the comics, Ross grows into a tough and capable ally of Captain America and Bucky.  Back to me:

Sven- Dead of Night (1977)

From Wiki- Dead of Night is a 1977 American made-for-television anthology horror film starring Ed Begley Jr., Anjanette Comer, Patrick Macnee, Horst Buchholz and Joan Hackett. Directed by Dan Curtis, the film consists of three stories written by Richard Matheson^[1] (although the first segment, "Second Chance", was adapted from a story by Jack Finney^[2]) much like the earlier Trilogy of Terror. The film originally premiered on NBC on March 29, 1977.  Back to me- Wiki gives all three segments a synopses, but I am not going to do this.  It was a pretty interesting movie, though one can see Dan Curtis was trying to emulate his earlier Trilogy.

HOTW- Wildcat

 

From Wiki- Orphaned during the Great Depression, Ted Grant found himself unemployed in the big city. One night, he saved "Socker" Smith, the heavyweight boxing champion, from a mugging. "Socker" took Ted under his wing, and soon Ted became a heavyweight boxing champion in his own right. He also became tangled unknowingly in his manager's sinister plans. His mentor "Socker" Smith was killed by Grant's managers Flint and Skinner who used a syringe, loaded with poison, in a boxing glove. The dose was only intended to slow down Smith, but the duo misjudged the potency. When Grant was arrested for the crime, Flint and Skinner, afraid that he might know what had really happened, arranged for the young fighter to be killed. Grant escaped the attempt and survived, but the policemen with him were killed. As a result, he became a fugitive. Later, he came upon a child who had been robbed of his Green Lantern comic. The boy, describing the mystery-man Green Lantern, inspired Grant to create the costume of a large black cat. He took the name Wildcat and vowed to clear his name. He brought Flint and Skinner to justice; the criminals were forced to confess, clearing Grant's name, and obtaining justice for Smith. Using the identity of Wildcat, Grant continued to fight crime.^[6] By issue #4, Wildcat had a custom motorbike, the Cat-o-Cycle and a comedy sidekick named Stretch Skinner.  Back to me!

It was recorded at the Rainbow Theatre in London on December 31, 1977, and released in April 1979 as a 2-LP set. The album draws from the band's first three studio albums: Ramones (1976), Leave Home (1977), and Rocket to Russia (1977). Four concerts during the UK tour were recorded, but the New Year's Eve one was chosen because ten rows of seats were thrown at the stage after the concert and it was considered the best of the performances at the venue.   Now back to me, the master of musical mayhem!

From The Archie Comics Wiki-  When Zoologist Ralph Hardy was on exploration, he noticed a white jaguar. Before he could pursue it, an earthquake occurred and a huge serpent-like dinosaur emerged from the cracked ground. He ran for safety inside the ruins of an Incan Temple. Once inside, he noticed the jaguar's tracks and followed them to an alter. Hanging off it, was a belt buckle with an emblem of a white jaguar. Hardley began to read the inscription on the wall, which noted only an animal lover could wear the buckle and be transformed into a human Jaguar. He also noticed another large mural depicting the monster serpent. As he continued to read about the history of the temple, he learned that the belt was created to stop the rampage of the creature, and that it was up to him to wear the belt and fulfill that destiny.  back to me!

From Wiki- The Incredible Shrinking Man is a 1957 American science fiction film directed by Jack Arnold, based on Richard Matheson's 1956 novel, The Shrinking Man. The film stars Grant Williams as Scott and Randy Stuart as Scott's wife, Louise. While relaxing on a boat, Scott is enveloped by a strange fog. Months later, he discovers that he appears to be shrinking. By the time Scott has reached the height of a small boy, his condition becomes known to the public. When he learns there is no cure for his condition, he lashes out at his wife. As Scott shrinks to the point where he can fit into a dollhouse, he has a battle with his family cat, leaving him lost and alone in his basement, where he is now smaller than the average insect. Back to me:  He fights a spider, and finally shrinks down to sub-atomic size and wanders off to find his place in the universe.

I saw a lot of Kimba when I was in West Virgina (WDCA Channel 20, greatest channel ever).  I have written about the show here, and had been doing episode reviews about 12 years ago.  Since I started the podcast, the Kimba episode overview I did has been the most popular one.   Speed Racer is right behind Kimba as well.  They have more than six times the combined listens than the third place episode.  That makes me think I should talk more about Kimba.  Well, it is only logical.  However, I do not want to do an episode by episode sort of thing, since that would take a year.

Atoma then puts Dusty on her back, and shows him the future Anytown. As they are observing, they are then attacked by a giant robot, who Dusty defeats with a slingshot. They meet Arton, another flying person. He was presented at least as a future rival to Atoma. The last quote from Atoma is "It's not fair Dusty!! Though you may think this is a perfect place it is from it. Some of us just live like slaves and the governor is no better than your Hitler was. There's lots we must do, be must tell about it another time!"

From Wiki-  Jo Raquel Welch (née Tejada; September 5, 1940 – February 15, 2023) was an American actress.  Raquel Welch first gained attention for her role in Fantastic Voyage (1966), after which she signed a long-term contract with 20th Century Fox. They lent her contract to the British studio Hammer Film Productions, for whom she made One Million Years B.C. (1966). Although Welch had only three lines of dialogue in the film, images of her in the doe-skin bikini became bestselling posters that turned her into an international sex symbol. She later starred in Bedazzled (1967), Bandolero! (1968), 100 Rifles (1969), Myra Breckinridge (1970), Hannie Caulder (1971), Kansas City Bomber (1972), The Last of Sheila (1973), The Three Musketeers (1973), The Wild Party (1975), and Mother, Jugs & Speed (1976).

She adopts the identity of the Red Tornado to fight local criminals in her New York City neighborhood, inspired by her son's admiration for the superhero Green Lantern. The character's popularity was such that she was given a cameo in the first adventure of the Justice Society of America, visiting the JSA's headquarters but being forced by a humorous mishap, her pants splitting, to leave without having the chance to apply for membership. Later Justice Society stories have declared Ma to be an honorary member of the team.  Me again (until the last paragraph):

From Wiki- Plesiosaurus (Greek: πλησίος (plesios), near to + σαῦρος (sauros), lizard) is a genus of extinct, large marine sauropterygian reptile that lived during the Early Jurassic. It is known by nearly complete skeletons from the Lias of England. It is distinguishable by its small head, long and slender neck, broad turtle-like body, a short tail, and two pairs of large, elongated paddles. It lends its name to the order Plesiosauria, of which it is an early, but fairly typical member. It contains only one species, the type, Plesiosaurus dolichodeirus. Other species once assigned to this genus, including P. brachypterygius, P. guilielmiimperatoris, and P. tournemirensis have been reassigned to new genera, such as Hydrorion, Seeleyosaurus and Occitanosaurus.
