One night Gabriel Garrison was visited by a nameless messenger who bestowed upon him great power, a power intended for good. Once discovering what this power was and what it enabled him to do, Gabriel became Axiom-man, a symbol of hope in a city that had none.
The messenger has fled, leaving Gabriel alone with mysterious abilities he knows little about. The things he can do, the powers–the options are limitless.
But only if he knows how to use them.
As he embarks on the path of discovery, Gabriel must try to understand why he was chosen to receive the most powerful of all gifts and, with the help from no other, come to a decision as to what to do with them.
Even if it takes the death of an innocent to convince him.
Oh man, I just picked up a bunch of wicked batmobiles Sunday. You’ll see them showcased soon enough. I couldn’t believe what I found! Had to get them. Excited to show them to you. Stay tuned to my YouTube shorts channel. You can also always catch them here as well.
So, without further ado, here is the latest batch of Batman Batmobile Hotwheels Shorts and Reels.
I searched and I searched, high and low and low and high, then one day out of the blue a kind lady offered to gift me this SUPER action figure because she saw on social media I was looking for it but to no success.
Special thanks to Veronica and Zach for their kindness.
This is it! A Superman Super Powers action figure! This is a retro release by McFarlane Toys, utilizing the same branding Kenner did way back in the ’80s. I played with my Superman toy when I was a kid until I wore it out so bad my folks had to buy me a new one. It got lost over the years but now I have Superman anew and this fanboy is thrilled to the bone!
Here you go. Seven more cars to round out this trilogy of Hotwheels Batmobile Shorts Compilations. Not saying there won’t be any more, but consider this the end of the first trilogy.
Anyway, we’ve got seven cool batmobiles to check out so let’s get to it.
Cheers.

One night Gabriel Garrison was visited by a nameless messenger who bestowed upon him great power, a power intended for good. Once discovering what this power was and what it enabled him to do, Gabriel became Axiom-man, a symbol of hope in a city that had none.
One night after a routine patrol, a mysterious black cloud appears over the city. Flying over to investigate it, Axiom-man is stopped short when the cloud’s presence shakes him to the core. An electrifying fear emanates from the cloud and he can barely get near it. Quickly, the cloud takes flight and leads him on a wild goose chase throughout the city, only to flee from him in the end. Almost immediately after the cloud’s appearance, a new hero arises, Redsaw, clad in a black cape and cowl. The people, now enamored with this new super-powered marvel, seem to have forgotten about Axiom-man and all he’s done for them.
Except something’s wrong. That same fear that emanated from the cloud drips off Redsaw like a foul smell and Axiom-man can barely get close to him without feeling ill.
What is Redsaw’s agenda and who is he? And why is it every time Axiom-man gets close to him it feels as if his powers are being sucked away?
As if that wasn’t enough, Gabriel’s day job hasn’t gotten any easier. His co-worker and the woman he adores, Valerie Vaughan, has little interest in him, and his boss has made it clear that one more day late to work will be the day he cleans out his desk. Then there’s the new trainee, Gene Nemek. What is his fascination with Redsaw and why is he never around when Redsaw appears?
From flying over city streets and soaring at dizzying heights, to balancing a secret identity with destiny, Axiom-man must discover what Redsaw’s presence means and how it ties into the messenger’s life-altering visit before the city—and the world—are enamored with an evil that has haunted the cosmos since the dawn of Time.
Here it is, the cartoon that started it all. Made in 2000, each frame was drawn, inked, and colored by yours truly. This is 2D animation the old-fashioned way. No computer assistance outside of the coloring, staging the frames, and the sound. Everything else was good ol’ pencil, ink, and paper.
This is the dog that inspired my webcomic, FREDRIKUS. Of course, in the webcomic, he’s middle-aged compared to this reel where he’s still a young guy doing something stupid.
It was real cool and real fun to watch this reel after 20 years. Yes, it’s pixelated. Was originally formatted for VHS and the tape’s been sitting around gathering dust for a couple decades. I don’t know how much wear that puts on the tape itself (degrading over time), but I’m still glad I got to salvage this cartoon and share it with you.
Hope you like it! Enjoy!

So here we are, back again. Yep. I love hotwheels, namely superhero ones like these three killer batmobiles you’re about to see. It seems every time I’m near toys in a store I have to go hunting for a batmobile–or any kind of supermobile–that I don’t have.
It’s that collector’s bug, man.
Anyway, here are a few more YouTube Hotwheels Batmobile Shorts and Reels for you to enjoy.
