This time we’re across the city and scoping out a Walmart I visit maybe once every two years, if that. Let’s see what they have by way of action figueres, superheroes, hotwheels, and playing cards.
Join me and let’s shop! And, yes, I got my kilometers-to-miles backwards in the video. It was early. Really early. My brain wasn’t 100% online yet.

Zombie Fight Night: Battles of the Dead City Book Spotlight
In 2027 A.D., the Zombie Apocalypse took the world by storm and no one was prepared. Countless lives were lost as humanity battled to regain control of their planet. Eventually, they did, and out of the ashes of fallen civilization rose a new world, one bent on revenge against the hordes of the undead that took everything from them.
Enter Tony Sterpanko, entrepreneur extraordinaire who found a way to capitalize on humanity’s thirst for vengeance against the zombie. He created Zombie Fight Night, a worldwide craze where the undead men and women who remained from the apocalypse faced off against people and beings that once existed on Earth or were existing for the first time.
It is ten years later and at Blood Bay Arena, fortunes are won and lost. Men are made millionaires over night. Others are not so lucky and find themselves broken and destitute.
Mick Chelsey is one such man: gambling addict, lousy husband and Zombie Fight Night fanatic.
Except now, in order to still watch the fights and try to win back all he’s lost, he needs to bet fast and big otherwise death will come for him.
Let the battles begin.
Zombies fight Bigfoot, werewolves, vampires, Axiom-man, Bruce Lee, samurai, kickboxers, robots and more in this ode to blood-and-guts action from Blood of the Dead author, A.P. Fuchs.

Join me as we go shopping for Funko Pops! at our very favorite toy store, Toys ‘R’ Us!
What pops did we see? We saw superheroes, Wonder Woman, Ms. Marvel, She-Hulk, Rhonda Rousey, wrestling Funko Pops, Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Shazam, the Flash, the Simpsons, the Mystery Machine, Catwoman, Geoffery the Toys ‘R’ Us mascot as Robin, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and so much more!
Lots of pops to see, lots to browse. I tried to cover the highlights of what was on the shelf. Hope I brought the ones you wanted to see to the fore as we looked along.
And, hey, I got to take a Funko Pop! home with me so it was successful trip.
Hope you enjoy my little Funko Pop! shop!

Realm of Heroes and Monsters YouTube Playlist Index
As you might have guessed–because I’ve been blatantly obvious–I spent a good chunk of 2023 beefing up my YouTube channel in an effort to 1) Play in another medium 2) Put some eyeballs on my books and comics 3) Entertain or inform you as best as I am able.
We did not bad and had growing stats week by week. Sure, there were some dips in the analytics but you can’t hit the ball out of the park every time.
Below is a newly-curated list of my playlists on YouTube. It’d be really great if you subscribed to one that strikes your fancy. Part of the goal with this whole YouTube thing is to use it as a funding channel–which costs my viewers nothing other than 2 seconds to click subscribe–so I can more easily bring you more books and comics and other entertainment. If you haven’t already subscribed to the channel, please do so. It really does help out an independent creator like me make ends meet.
Here are the playlists on my channel in no particular order as we embark into 2024.
Enjoy!

Superman Action Figures, Funko Pop!, Comics, and More! (Christmas 2023)
This Christmas, the Man of Steel made his presence very clear in my home. I think it’s because the Fortress of Solitude is only about two kliks away from the North Pole and Santa’s workshop. Regardless, I was very fortunate to be blessed with a bunch of Superman collectibles, everything from action figures, to Funko Pops!, to comics and magazines, and more!

We have clearance, Clarence. What’s your vector, Victor? And now we have a writer rider. Yes, I’m well aware my form and skill on horseback needs a lot of work, but I only ride once a year–twice, if I’m lucky–so overall, Bell and I did not too bad.
Have a laugh at my expense as I almost fall off the horse at the beginning of the video.
Enjoy!

vLog – The Lord of the Rings vs The Dark Tower (Hollywood, Listen Up!)
On this day of Festivus, my head wandered into Stephen King territory and I started thinking about how a proper adaption of THE DARK TOWER series has not yet been done. There’s been talks for years but, ultimately, fans have never received the entire series in film. In this video I compare THE LORD OF THE RINGS to THE DARK TOWER in terms of an opinionated approach as to how to tackle such an immense project. It all comes down to one word . . . which you’ll have to watch to find out. (I’m the worst, I know.)
Ultimately, however, I do think we owe Stephen King some gratitude after all he’s done for the literary world and pop culture in general.
