Fantasy/horror/scifi

Had been wanting to tackle this limited series for donkey's yonks. So...instead of sending him here, Superman's parents escape the dying planet Krypton *with* their son. They crash-land on a medieval-fantasy sort of world where, through strange events, they become the ruling family of a kingdom. Then the political assassinations start and it looks like there will be war between the superpowered aliens and the magical (and non-magical) indigenous inhabitants. DC nuts will dig the reimagined characters and connections. Fantasy readers will dig the nods to popular authors. 

The editing in this 2024 doco about "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre" [sic] is next level. The visuals don't simply mirror the film-going anecdotes, brilliant scene analyses or deep cinematic references of the famous appreciators (Oswalt, Miike, Heller-Nicholas, King, Kusama), they continually feature side-by-side comparisons and even clips from additional titles not namechecked yet relevant to the current point. By the conclusion, you feel like you've both rewatched "T/T/C/S/M" with half a dozen entertainingly insightful friends, and completed a uni elective on the horror and influence of Tobe Hooper.

Speaking of reactions (or lack of), I've recently been revisiting this shiny pop nugget - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l81HZfkLwpk

New arrival. Inexplicably, the matching Rei was priced $20 higher. Eff that for a game of toy soldiers! I'll find a non-matching Ms Ayanami for cheap elsewhere.
