Re-meet Tonya Harding and the new series

Throughout this long break in the writings I've changed the stories around significantly and more importantly I've made a drastic change to the Sentinels. Well, actually the change is that there IS no more Sentinels, not yet anyway. I felt that the whole prison setup really barred off alotta possibilities in story telling and branching and that the bond between these characters would be temporary as they go their separate ways and most likely never talk to each other again. Evelyn wanted to be left alone, So did Nick, so did Chris, etc. So the whole idea of this superhero prison task force assembled under the nose of the government under the supervision of the Prison supervisor herself sounded way too ludicrous for me, personally. I want it to feel less forced and more open.

Tonya Harding has undergone quite the transformation background wise. She doesn't recall many years of her life outside her brief stint in the army as part of a meta-human task force to which she did some deeds she's not particularly proud of. But now, because her use has been exhausted she was discharged and throw back to the states and was pretty much forced to try and make it on her own. This proved to be a far greater tragedy as she suffered the shock of returning to a different, uncaring world and she ends up homeless.

Her new journey starts when she is discovered by a wealthy couple in New Jersey and is able to stay with them for a while. No desire to become some sort of hero or anti-hero, but the will to become something greater.

The transformation from a position of power to a completely powerless role is a drastic change. But it allows for the build up of her character. And she'll certainly have a more relate-able story this time around.

The Dreadskull's Crew

D'Angelo Peers - D'Angelo is a complex, hardass character. On the outside he's a complete tough guy who drinks a lot of alcohol and has an affinity for guns and pulling heists. Raised by the great pirate Cain he was taught the ways of the cutthroat world of pirates. A grand design of women, wealth, and infamy is the only life for D'Angelo. He's strong willed and hot headed in most bits but can be a surprisingly cunning mind when he has time to think. He's never to be taken lightly by his enemies and that's a fact most should learn quickly especially given his crew and resources. Slig - Former veteran army sniper, Dennis "Slig" Wolfe, is the straight man of the bunch. A married man with three children and well accomplished sniper in the military. Despite the extremely polarizing lifestyle of it all he finds catharsis in doing a bit of sailing. He's very laid back and chill about life. On the crew he serves as D'Angelo's right hand man,...

Neo Yokio Review

Okay so I watched all of Neo Yokio and my thoughts are as follows: It's okay. If you're looking for an okay parody of anime and pop culture with some decent moments and music it's worth at least a look If you're looking for a serious hardcore anime with deep character arcs, methodized storytelling, stylistic action, and a unique art style you better look elsewhere. The animation is shit. Right off the bat. Egoraptor coulda done a better job if you paid him with a half eaten subway sandwich. I've made smoother powerpoint animations. The fact that this type of product made it off the show floor kills me. It shows we're really in a time where you can release a half assed product with no heart or soul and still make mad money and I hate it. Animation quality aside there's some interesting sequences like fighting a demon skull inside an art painting or a race through an underwater city but there's very few ideas that will wow you. But there isn't...
