Game Of Thrones
August 28th, 2016 by Proprietor
Re-watching the series in anticipation for season 6 coming out on DVD. Right now I am half way through season 3. There are several things I realize with the long view now available.
1. Robb Stark was a total idiot. Though he was an impetuous teenager, if you read the books he was all of 16 or 17 when he started his war and tried to become king of the north. He ignored all practical advice form his mother, and even his wife. But, being a teenager can somewhat account for this, being a total idiot accounts for the rest. First he should have had the wedding his mother arranged right away. If he ended up cheating on his wife during a war, so be it. Once he wed Walder Frey’s daughter, he would have had the men necessary to win the war. Next he beheaded Rickon Karstark instead of keeping him hostage. Since he did not wed Walder Frey’s daughter and married another woman, he lost any chance of replacing the Karstark’s men, when they marched away. Even if he had kept Rickon Karstark as hostage, the Karstark army would have grudgingly fought.
2. Arya Stark will return to the north and her remaining family. The Red Woman told Arya she had a darkness in her, and would kill many people. They would meet again. From what I saw on various websites, The Red Woman brings Jon Snow back to life. Maybe the Red Woman will meet Arya somewhere else, but my guess is Arya will return to the north.
3. Jon Snow is Jon Baratheon. After Eddard Stark had found out about the incest between Cirsie and Jamie, he started looking for Robert’s bastards. My guess is that he was looking for someone not Jon to sit on the throne. Eddard knew Jon was Robert’s son and his sister warned him to keep the child safe, because she knew that the Lannisters would want to kill him. Since Lyanna was dying, she knew that Robert would remarry, and to sit on the throne he needed the Lannister’s backing, so marrying Cirsie would be the logical choice. Look at Gendry, black hair, brown eyes, just like Jon Snow. Lannister’s have gold hair. Targarians have white hair, and we have never seen Rrhaegar Targaryen in the show. He is shown in paintings or interpretations from the book as having white hair due to the inbreeding. That would not end up yielding black hair if he had conceived a child through rape via Lyanna, even though she had dark hair.
Cannot wait to see season 6 on DVD. My order on Amazon is already placed. Such is the curse of having cut the cord, usually a year or season behind on television shows, and have to read stuff on other websites. Good thing I do not care about spoilers.
Thanks for stopping by.
PS: Might as well get as much posted while my site works. No thanks to Go Daddy.
Being Bad
August 28th, 2016 by Proprietor
This new story line “Bad Boys” will focus on Death Boss and 2B-Bot. It is a story that I was debating about putting in where it now sits, but after looking at the other story lines coming up, I decided now was the best time. It only impacts references in a few stories, and requires a minor tweak in the next story.
Still working on the character pages, Gorilla Fish and 2B-Bot are the first two I will post once I am done. The real situation is getting the list page of the characters done, and set up the way I want it. I do not want a basic text list, then there is how the character bio page will look, how to move from the next page to the other, essentially a bunch of HTML stuff.
Thanks for stopping by.
PS: Forgive the later updates. I am sorry. Seems Go Daddy has problems every Sunday with service. Unfortunately I am stuck with them for another year. Rest assured, I am now looking for another provider who will not provide such headaches and be more reliable. Go Daddy is shit for service, and I will write the highest person on the corporate chain who will listen. Seems they like to wash their hands of the whole slowness and in ability to access things, then up sell services that were not necessary a few years ago.
Meeting Over
August 21st, 2016 by Proprietor
With the end of Meeting story line, the next story focuses on the machinations of 2B-Bot and Death Boss. The story is titled “Bad Boys” and takes place in Death Boss’ home universe, referred to on the Multiverse page as the Mighty League of Justice (MLJ) Universe.
The Mighty League of Justice is a bit of a hat tip to some of the old cartoons I watched as a child where the heroes were always under powered, and the villains were simply defeated by dump luck. The leaders were arrogant, and oblivious to the fact that the heroes are not very heroic. Unfortunately the MLJ did not really fit into the Bagboy Universe. So, like any good comic book writer, I just let them have their own universe. Death Boss was going to be the one who discovered dimensional travel, and in another comic concept I had, form the Intra-Dimensional Super Villain Society. Gorilla Fish and 2B-Bot were an integral part of the group. It is the actions of members of the IDSVS that lead to similar events that will happen in “Bad Boys”. When I boiled down the story, and looked at character interaction, I realized a more barebones story could be used. This was the nucleus of “Bad Boys”.
Since the events that transpire in “Bad Boys” fit well into my overall plans for Gorilla Fish, and the only effect it has on later stories, is simply a reference change, I decided I would at some point fit “Bad Boys” into the overall. With the inclusion of “Bad Boys” into the overall story of Gorilla Fish, it opened up other opportunities. Opportunities to shift a few character dynamics, and even write a few more stories that could be put into the greater arc and not be disruptive, the stories were more elaborative.
Next week starts a new story arc. I am still working on the character bios. Once I get the first couple done, I will add a page for those.
Thanks for stopping by.
PS: Sorry for the lateness of the post GoDaddy had a situation. Naturally it is all my fault. Thinking next year of not having them as the host for this website. Sorry if there will be issues over the next year. GoDaddy seems to suck.
New Page
August 7th, 2016 by Proprietor
I added a page to the navigation menu above called Multiverse. It has a brief summary of each universe introduced so far in the order that universe was introduced, and the known characters introduced.
I am currently working on characters page for the characters whom were introduced in the current comic and I hope to have that page set up with links to bio pages of each character. Right now my main focus is on the main characters like Gorilla Fish and 2B-Bot, then I will go to the second level characters, and eventually work down to those mentioned. Takes time to do, but it is also a lot of fun.
Thanks for stopping by.
