The Three TV Shows Most Likely To Spawn This Year's Popular Halloween Costumes

TV has always provided plenty of fodder for costume ideas for Halloween, and given most pop culture experts say we are now living in a golden age of TV with more choices than ever before when it comes to great drama, it is highly likely that a lot of party goers this year will be going to the likes of Showtime, HBO and AMC for inspiration. While some shows have always been pretty obvious sources of Halloween costume ideas (such as The Walking Dead – after all, anyone can throw together a zombie costume out of stuff they have at home so it is a great short notice solution), three shows that have dominated the TV and entertainment headlines this year are sure to feature more than most:

My Favorite 3 Comic Book Super Villains

Fantastic Four #5 (July 1962), Doctor Doom's first appearance. (Wikipedia)

In our world of crime and villainy, it is good to be able to enter a world where the villains are evil but acceptable because of their evil. Comic book writers have created some brilliant superheroes over the years, and they have also created some brilliant super villains. These villains are truly evil, and we know it, but how many of them would you want to be locked away in a prison or killed? Probably none of them, they are as much a part of the enjoyment as the heroes themselves. Totally over the top, they are loved as much as Batman and Superman. 

Below are a few of my favorite human villains from comics over the years.

Book Tour: 'The Second Creation' By Kenneth S. Murray [Guest post And Giveaway Included]

It's with great pleasure that we hosting a book tour for another novel by Kenneth. Not only because this is a Sci-Fi one, but also because last time we hosted one of his book tours, we had a very good (and fun) time. For those of you who don't remember, or missed it, here is the link to the previous one: 'The Jeweler' by Ken Murray. ('The Jeweler' is' the story of Cole Hanson, an assassin for the CIA who learned the jewelry trade when he was younger...)


In today's post, we have bits of info about the book and its author as well as a guest post specially written for us by Kenneth S. Murray (the answer to a question I asked him a while ago which was "what made you write a Sci-Fi novel?") and a Giveaway. How's that for starting the week in a big way?

Enjoy!
