derekwc presents: The History Of Comics On Film

[derekwc]

My screen name is derekwc, hence the derekwc presents.
I was mainly inspired by James Rolfe and his Monster Madness Cinemasscre Reviews (also the Godzilla ones are pretty fun too!). I wanted to focus mainly on comic books adapted into tv shows and films. Kind of short synopsis and review with some historical perspectives and tangents thrown in for fun. There is a vast amount of material to cover and I probably wont have access to all of it, but I thought I'd go ahead and give it a shot. I probably won't have a part up every day and they might not all be in order (but I'll try my best). Note: I'm trying to limit my focus to comic books, maybe I'll go back and do comic strips or manga some other day. Hope you enjoy!

I regularly posted over at the YABS board which is closing in a few days. For those who were following these videos there, this thread will serve as a continuation and hopefully also as a to welcome some new viewers.

Anyway I thought this might be a good place to continue to share my work to date. Please enjoy.

RE: Atop The Fourth Wall's Cry For Justice Review - A Video Response In Two Parts

I was compelled to create my own video to serve as a counterpoint to many of the criticisms and arguments brought up in Atop The Fourth Wall's video reviews on the comic book series Cry For Justice.

So I contacted the man to inform him of my intentions, and with his blessing
I present his series of reviews alongside my own response.
