Whether you faced Mr. Dream or Mike Tyson himself, Punch Out for the original Nintendo Entertainment System remains one of the most memorable games of the time. Released in 1987, you control Little Mac, a 17-year-old kid from the Bronx who “loves nothing better than a tough challenge” (according to the instruction manual). Well, aContinue reading “Crayon Art #7: Punch Out”

Dream Journal #1: Samurai Magic
I’ve had some whacky dreams in my lifetime. In fact, my Creature Keepers short story was based on one of my zanier slumberland adventures. I’m not sure what causes them (perhaps it’s a lot like this Angry Beavers episode), but I’ve been fortunate to be able to remember a majority of them so I canContinue reading “Dream Journal #1: Samurai Magic”
Top Ten Beaches in Video Games
Memorial Day has come and gone and the official start of Summer is just around the corner. If you were anything like me as a kid, you probably spent a majority of your vacation not at a REAL beach but enjoying the tropical sights of your favorite virtual paradises. Below are the Top Ten instancesContinue reading “Top Ten Beaches in Video Games”
Crayon Art #6: Mega Man
This month, my friend and I have decided to trade off giving each other words as prompts for our drawings. I decided to try to take the first nine prompt and find a way to somehow apply them to the Mega Man series (a personal favorite of mine). Below are the results! Making all ofContinue reading “Crayon Art #6: Mega Man”
*Chalk* Art #5: Looney Tunes
We’ve had some beautiful days this week, and I just bought some chalk – so I decided to test it out! I set up a 9×9 grid on my Dad’s driveway and set to work creating some of my favorite Looney Tunes characters. Unfortunately, I only was able to finish four before it started toContinue reading “*Chalk* Art #5: Looney Tunes”
Crayon Art #4: The Flintstones
They’re the modern stone-age family! This week, I was suddenly inspired to draw characters from one of my favorite childhood cartoons. The Flintstones ran from 1960 all the way until 1966, and I was lucky to see reruns of it when it aired on various networks in my youth. It was the longest-running animated seriesContinue reading “Crayon Art #4: The Flintstones”
Top Ten Evil Doctors in Video Games
We’re already over a year into this pandemic and things are just starting to get under control (They are, right???). Vaccinations are being distributed, and it seems like many places are opening up again. Hopefully, life will be back to normal before we know it. Of course, we should still remain cautious and be vigilantContinue reading “Top Ten Evil Doctors in Video Games”
Crayon Art #3: Nicktoons
This week, a friend of mine requested that I draw the Nicktoons! I loved this suggestion, so I sat down for a few hours and did my darndest to sketch out some of my favorite childhood cartoon characters. I really like how they turned out – and I hope you do, too! Making all ofContinue reading “Crayon Art #3: Nicktoons”
Top Ten Frowny Faces
10. Beaker (The Muppet Show) Loyal assistant to Bunsen, Beaker is always there to…screw things up. It’s no wonder he’s got a frown on his face all the time. He can’t do anything right! 9. Lurch (The Addams Family) The ever-faithful butler to the Addams family looks like he just woke up from a napContinue reading “Top Ten Frowny Faces”
Crayon Art #2: Back to the Future
The Back to the Future movies are my favorite films of all time. When a friend of mine requested that I applied my new crayon hobby to the likes of Marty McFly, I just knew I had to draw the rest of the characters. I’m not super great at drawing people (yet), but below areContinue reading “Crayon Art #2: Back to the Future”
