Groovin' on Gerber and Ostrander

Lately I've been binging the work of John Ostrander. I've been going between The Spectre, Suicide Squad and have Grimjack and Starslayer loaded and ready to read. So, I might to a video highlightin...

Low: The Early Years Of Strange Brain Parts

This Patreon exclusive video is jam-packed with goodies you cannot see anywhere else. Some of which has not been seen before. What was Strange Brain Parts like before the focus on comics? You’ll ...

Righteous Indignation!

This week will be a video covering another classic '80s series: Bucky O'Hare, by Larry Hama and Micheal Golden. It'll cover all the various versions and their differences, briefly mention the video...

Still Lost In The '80s

Squadron Supreme is probably one of the MOST requested videos from this past year. Again, like a lot of videos in the last few months, it's something I've been meaning to do, but never found the ti...

Late Stage Capitol-ism

This week has not gone as planned.

Originally, I started a script for a look at Capitol Comics, the publisher that existed between one eye blink and the next. But I thought I was padding the ...

"They live inside of my head..."

The next video will be Fish Police. It's another project that sort of got away from me and ended up being a whole lot longer than I thought when I sat down to write the script. That seems to be a t...

I'm Gumby, Dammit!

Originally, I thought a video about the history of Comico might be something I get to in a month or so. But on the weekend I went over the research material I had sitting in a folder, made a few no...

Coming This Week

This week's video will be an extensive look at Elementals, the comic book series published by Comico that was primarily done by Bill Willingham. My best guess (because I'm still editing it together...

Even More Shenanigans

Behind the scenes I've been getting all set-up to stream City Of Heroes a few times a week. The blank spot in the upper left is a webcam pointed at the wall. It would be focused on me when I stream...

What's On My Desk?

I'm pretty sure the majority of you recognized what was sitting on my desk in the final shot of the most current video. But I thought I'd take a screenshot and post a breakdown of it for you anyway...

What's Next And Stuff

Hello everyone!

I know it's been a few weeks since I've updated what I've been doing behind the scenes, so it's time to fill you in on the details. Let's start with the image above...

F...

Post it or not?

Should I post the One World Under Doom short to the SBP channel or let it die in silence?

One World Under Doom (Short Version)

After completing the full script to One World Under Doom (and reading I over a few times) I decided I just don't want to do it. It's pretty negative and I'm not in the mood to make a long-form, neg...

And so it begins again...

Today, June 16th, is notable for a few reasons. Not only does it officially mark Strange Brain Parts entering its eighth year, but it is also your humble writer/narrator/editor's birthdate. Yes, I ...

I've Seen The Future...

The thumbnail above is something I whipped up for a video looking at the current event, One World Under Doom. It won't be the next video, though. In fact, it's such a negative, slightly hot take th...

BTS: Editing Audio

This week I did some recording with the intent of showing my work, so to speak. By that I mean, what I put into each audio recording to make it sound decent and professional. This is real time, wit...

I Tried To Make A Title Using Lyrics From Velouria But Failed Miserably

Hello everyone!

This morning I polished off the script for a video dedicated to Valeria Richards and her awkward history. It also includes my interpretation of Doom's importance to the Fantas...

Crisis Of Infinite Projects

Hello everyone!

I'm sure it was hard to miss that a new video didn't appear last week. Unfortunately, your humble narrator suffered a back injury last weekend. It's why I was barely present i...

The One About Smiling Stan

Hello everyone!

This week should see the release of a video I titled, The Stan Lee Paradox. It's a piece that outlines my opinion concerning Lee's strengths and weaknesses. It's a response to...

What's In The Works

Hello, everyone!

Well, it's that time of the week (well, late in the week) where I fill you in on what's being worked on and what you might be able to expect in the coming weeks. Or, at the v...

The Debriefing

Hello, everyone!

I think I've finally finished my forensic analysis of the creation of the Fantastic Four. Yes, as previously mentioned, it's a combination of a lot of writing I've done over ...

A Pulse-Pounding, Brief Update

Hello everyone!

Above is the title page for this week's video. Which should be pretty long. Like, 20-25 minutes in length. I've not edited all the narration down to its exact length, so that'...

What's In The Works

Hello everyone!

This week's video should be The Reading List: My Personal Favourites. As that oblique title suggests, these would be the comics that I enjoy, have influenced my journey throug...

I Still Feel Fantastic

Hello everyone!

As you can tell from the image above, yet another Fantastic Four video is forthcoming. In fact, it's next! Hopefully by Tuesday. It focuses on first appearance of Galactus and...

I Feel Fantastic

Hello everyone!

First of all, don't Google the title of this post or search for it on YouTube. Believe me, your life is better not knowing. I might even make it the title of the next video an...

The Nikopol Trilogy by Enki Bilal

Happy New Year!

As a way to welcome in the year, here's a video a full day or so before it goes live on YouTube!

Hopefully, in the future, I can do this more frequently and give you al...

What's Coming In The New Year

Hello, everyone! I hope you all have had a fantastic holiday season! And, since this is likely my final post for 2024, I'd like to take this opportunity and say that I hope the New Year is even bet...

Tarot: Witch Of The Black Rose (Uncensored)

Hello, everyone!

I know it's been a few weeks without an update but, for the most part, I've been working on stuff I'd already mentioned here. So...it kind of seemed redundant to say I was wo...

Coming Soon!

This past week I've been suffering from an insufferable cold. Every piece of narration was interrupted with sniffling, coughing or my voice cutting out into a not sexy rasp. However, this morning, ...

What's In The Works

Elements Of A Comic Page is finally coming together after weeks of not being able to mentally piece it together. Hopefully, this will actually be done in a few days. This video acts as a very long ...
