Funko Friday: 1978 Superman and 1989 Batman Rewind Funko Pops

Funko Friday: 1978 Superman and 1989 Batman Rewind Funko Pops

These rewind Funko Pops! are a great idea. Truly a nostalgia thing but, man, does it work. What we have here are the two masters of being Superman and Batman from my childhood (I would still argue they are held in the same regard today in terms of truly embodying the character).

I’m an in-package collector so apologies for not opening them up. However, we do get a good look at the Funkos by seeing them on the back. Will I open them one day? Maybe, but until then, let’s enjoy what we’ve got.

Christopher Reeve was, and still is, the ultimate portrayal of Superman. Micheal Keaton nailed it as both Batman and Bruce Wayne and set the tone for all other Batman movies to come (excluding Batman Forever and Batman and Robin but, to be fair, the overall costume design was carried through those movies).

It was wonderful to see Keaton return as Batman in The Flash. I wish Christopher Reeve was still with us. Had things not gone as they had, I’m sure he would have gladly participated in the current wave of superhero movies and TV shows as Superman in some capacity. His willingness to further the Superman mythos was demonstrated by his couple of cameos on Smallville.

1978 Superman Funko Rewind at Amazon here.

1989 Batman Funko Rewind not available on Amazon as of the posting of this video.

A Little Letter to my American LGBTQ Friends

Posted on January 15, 2025 5:00 am by A.P. Fuchs

A Little Letter to my American LGBTQ Friends

The following is a Facebook post from a few days back. I want to put it here for archiving but also for anyone who might need to hear it.

Letter:

Hi.

I’m worried about you. In short order you’re going to be a target and will be robbed of your basic humanity. I am the step-father of three LGBTQ young adults so that’s where I’m coming from. To think that harm would come to them over that one thing makes me angry, upset, and sad.

I am so sorry for what’s to come because what’s coming is viewing you as non-human no differently than doing the same regarding race or religion or politcal stance or any other unwarranted way to treat someone as less than human. What’s going to occur is an echo of 1939.

Unfortunately, and especially being Canadian, I have no power to change what’s coming. The best I can offer you is love and a voice of standing up against bullies.

I do not know how LGBTQ rights work at present in the US. We have rights and protections here in Canada, but as per those things, those items are on paper versus on the human heart so, yes, unfortunately it’s difficult for certain groups within your community (ie. Trans persons) to obtain work or even just simply be treated with respect. I hope there might be mechanisms in place in your area that could come to your aid once the dehumanizing commences, but, again, I don’t know what is currently available Stateside in regards to those mechanisms.

What I want to offer you is this:

No matter what happens, you ARE a human being and you ARE loved (at least by this Canadian). Please consider me, though we’re far apart, as someone coming alongside to walk with you whether in speech or in silence (your choice) and I’ll hold your hand if needed for comfort or assurity or whatever else a warm hand might provide.

I’m so sorry. Humans these days pride themselves on being oh so smart and advanced and yet can’t even get a basic thing like respect right. It’s not that hard: Just be kind and recognize the other person is a person like you therefore deserves to be treated with dignity.

Again, super simple concept but seems to be extraordinarily complex for some (which is both pathetic and sad).

In the end, all I’m trying to say is I’m concerned for you on several levels.

I guess we’re not as advanced as we think.

With love,

APF

Authortube: Beta Readers | An Opinion from a Self-publishing Veteran

Posted on January 8, 2025 11:42 am by A.P. Fuchs

Authortube: Beta Readers | An Opinion from a Self-publishing Veteran

Prompted by a Facebook post upon which I was able to give my opinion on beta readers, I decided to make this Authortube video discussing the same and give my answer in video form as well.

Warning, this video might be controversial and you might not agree with what I have to say. That’s fair and that’s your right. This is just the opinion of a self-publishing veteran (22 years) who’s part of the old guard of writers, so to speak.

For those curious, I’ve played the role of author, publisher, and editor. I’ve done deals with New York and abroad. My label was also a traditional publishing house for a time. These items are listed so you know where I’m coming from.

Anyway, please enjoy this old guy’s opinion on beta readers and if a writer should use them or not.

Thanks for watching.

Peace.

Status Report – 010625

Posted on January 6, 2025 5:00 am by A.P. Fuchs
Status Report – 010625:

This is it. New year. New stuff.

2025.

If you’re a reader of my newsletter, you will know that 2025 is my Art Year where most of my creative efforts will be put toward artwork and comics. There are fun projects planned and some surprises I haven’t mentioned but will in due time.

Obviously, the entire year isn’t scheduled to the letter but here is the general order of soon-to-complete items that will be handled first:
- Finish production on, and release, the BATTLE OF POWER Trilogy for THE AXIOM-MAN SAGA
- Continue through with Season Three of the REALM OF HEROES AND MONSTERS: STORY TIME Podcast
- Do a new FREDRIKUS strip (with possible follow-up formal publication)
- Review horror graphic-novel-in-progress and then pick it up from there (The graphic novel is written and in thumbnail form with about half the art drawn and inked; most likely this will air as a serial comic on my Patreon page)
- Organize the upcoming Kickstarter for the special thing only my newsletter readers know about (at this time)
The above is the general path I’ll be following until completed and then we’ll add on other things later. I’m excited for this year to be Art Year. It will be a nice change of pace and also a nice change for the eyes because paper is easier to stare at for hours on end than a screen.

As usual, this website is the main hub for announcements and publications as well as access to free content, information, and entertainment.

This has been your Status Report for 010625.

Pst. Don’t forget: Today is Minifigure Monday!

Peace.

REALM OF HEROES AND MONSTERS: STORY TIME with A.P. FUCHS: S03EP05 –

The Shot

Episode 5: The Shot – A bad year. A bad everything. Only one thing to do.

Following the fun of doing a flash fiction version of the podcast as A.P. Fuchs had done during Season One, this episode is the same: One big whirlwind of brief story with a punch to the face in the end.

How do you make a podcast show that’s around five minutes long and make it interesting? This is another effort from Fuchs to do so. Did he succeed? Listen and decide for yourself then let him know in the comments.

Enjoy!
