| 2489 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Touching story. Having your own personal "Battle Cat" must have been pretty fun. Loved the Altered Beast mash-up idea your young brain came up with. | Aug 08, 2015 |  | |
| 2517 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @Vaporman87 You are not alone, Great minds think alike, Birds of a feather and all that. Godzilla collectibles sound like they would take up a lot of space. @echidna64 If we ever get a Maximum Carnage movie, we'll know the Nerds have officially taken over. Kraven's Last Hunt would make a great one too, though maybe that would be better as a direct to Netflix TV-MA one off. | Spider-Man & Venom Action Figure Retrospective Part 2 | Aug 14, 2015 | |
| 2518 | Article | Hoju Koolander | great topic. We must have had the only one of these on the West Coast when I was 9 or 10 called The Wizard of Games. I only went once because of those high prices you talked about, but that console based arcade concept really was a great concept. Of course if you had a rich buddy with all the games, you could get the same effect, I suppose. | A New Kind of Arcade | Aug 14, 2015 | |
| 2528 | Article | Hoju Koolander | The greatest reveal you provided for me was the Dennis the Menace and Phil Hartman connection. I used to watch that cartoon all the time, but I never realized the same actor I enjoyed as Cap'n Karl on The Pee-Wee Herman show/Pee-Wee's Playhouse was voicing Mr. Wilson! The error on the Ghostbusters fact threw me for a second, but it did remind me that in an interview with Ernie Hudson, who played Winston in the movies, he said that he auditioned for the role on the cartoon, but the part went to Arsenio instead. Isn't that crazy? | Little Known Facts About 25 of Your Favorite 80's Cartoons! | Aug 16, 2015 | |
| 2529 | Article | Hoju Koolander | It's great to have both brothers contributing now, especially since it sounds like your retro-interests are closer to mine than Benjanime's (he's a fine writer, I just can't relate to his articles most of the time). Though I'm much too aware of my comic book collecting, it love the idea of finding a secret stash I forgot about. As a dedicated fan of all the Robin's in my youth, A Death In The Family is one of my favorites as well and it paved the way for my favorite Robin, Tim Drake. I am actually just reading The Killing Joke for the first time right now and man, is it twisted. I'll be curious to see the animated version, since they did a pretty good job being faithful to The Dark Knight Returns. Looking forward to more articles from you, maybe about your action figure collecting? | The Cereal Box in the Closet | Aug 16, 2015 | |
| 2530 | Article | Hoju Koolander | I have loved your whole series of childhood stories from Brooklyn. So relatable, yet the East Coast setting makes it feel more exotic. Cool older kids who were bored with their possessions were a great source for not only video games, but action figures, comics and more. Though when it came to Nintendo, I definitely did more playing at friends houses than trading, since my own collection was pretty sparse. | A Summer Quest | Aug 16, 2015 | |
| 2531 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @onipar Actually, I just found a "video game bar" out here in Arizona that has that exact set-up. You must have willed it into existence! | A New Kind of Arcade | Aug 16, 2015 | |
| 2532 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Epic and great narrative structure. Video game bullies were something I encountered as well, growing up. They always approach you as if you did something to offend them, when all you were doing was playing a game alone. In my case, the guy brought 5 of his buddies back to intimidate me and I got out of that skating rink in a hurry. I wish the magic of Street Fighter II could have melted my bully's heart as well. | A Flurry of Hadoukens and Shoryukens | Aug 16, 2015 | |
| 2533 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Saturdays were all about TV for me (but then again, so was every other day). X-Men, Spider-Man and Batman on FOX Kids, then switch over to ABC for Cow-Boys of Moo-Mesa or The Addams Family cartoon, maybe try out an episode of Saved By The Bell: The New Class on NBC, before switching back to FOX for WMAC Masters and getting my wrestling fix from WWF Superstars. If I did go outside it was just a trip to my favorite comic book store, that was the true Saturday destination. After all, you needed an hour or more to browse all the back issues. | A Mid-90's Saturday With c_b_f | Aug 16, 2015 | |
| 2544 | Article | Hoju Koolander | One of the most original stories I've read on the site. if there is a more roundabout way of getting a Nintendo, I've never heard it. Seriously, loved it. | How I Got My NES | Aug 18, 2015 | |
