Airwolf


I’m currently (re)watching a couple of tv pilots from the 1970s and 1980s to discuss on Friday’s episode of Retro Smash with my buddy Jacarrino. We’ll be discussing pilots of Battlestar Galactica (the original of course), Knight Rider, The Bionic Man (Or The Six Million Dollar Man if you want to put a price-tag on him), The Incredible Hulk, Buck Rogers in the 25th Century and Airwolf.

Today I saw the pilot of Airwolf and frankly I have a bone to pick with the writer of this one. Let’s just say for now the pilot doesn’t hold up well, unlike some of the others, which are still great to watch. The helicopter itself looks cool though.

Anyway, check out Retro Smash on YouTube or on any of the podcast platforms. We go live Friday January the 8th at 20:00. Audience participation in the chat is encouraged. The show is in Dutch by the way.

Pancakes


Making pancakes is my specialty at our home. I’m not much of a cook but I can hold my own in the kitchen when necessary.
But I do enjoy making and eating pancakes. It’s the kind of food that makes life a bit more pleasant.

Writing about KNIGHT RIDER

I’m currently working on a booklet about Knight Rider. I’ve been tremendously enjoying rewatching this show and am looking forward to watching a lot more.

This is a shot of KITT from the pilot episode.


During the demolition derby in the pilot episode of Knight Rider, Michael uses Ski-Mode for the first time. Check out the dummy on the passenger seat, it’s supposed to be the kid that hitched a ride with KITT.

I’ll probably post more screen shots like these in the near future, because I’ve got Knight Rider on the brain and this blog is more or less a reflection of what’s keeping me occupied geek wise.

Hobgoblin


YouTube.com/AmsterdamComicGeek
This week I edited a little celebration of the Hobgoblin. To this day he’s still one of my favorite Spider-Man villains. I was there as a young reader when the character was first introduced by Roger Stern and John Romita Jr. They made a great two part story in which we see how an unknown guy gets the old equipment of the Green Goblin and modifies everything to become the Hobgoblin. His outfit would look great on any halloweenparty . For the longest time they kept the readers in the dark about Hobgoblin’s true identity. Comics back then were a lot of fun.

I think my 10 year old self would’ve loved the video. In fact, 43 year old me is pretty pleased with it as well.
