Vol. 3 has come to me, and I like it! It's not quite as disturbing as the other volumes, but has a greater focus on the story. Alot moves forward in this volume and we get a big expansion of the story. I won't spoil for those who haven't read, but it's a fun addition to a very bizarre series.

There was something interesting in the letter to the fans by Matt Frank at the end.

Could this mean that Mr. Frank has been tapped for an Ultraman project in the future? Maybe even the Marvel Ultraman comic coming (hopefully) later this year? We'll have to wait and see.

Some folks talked about a CalArts Turbo Teen in light of Thundercats Roar, so here ya go.

Considering I pretty much just did this ��

I mean, is it really Japan-splaining if you do it to a person who was ALSO Japan-splaining though?

Thanks man!

Here’s my little collection of sketch commissions drawn by one of my favorite artists ever: Matt Frank ( @spankzilla85 )! These are from past G-fests, from oldest (2011) to most recent (2015). 

I love the way he draws Orga so much~ <3

I'm immensely curious as to your take on the body of work of Jeremy Robinson *cough*andprojectnemesis*cough*

I still haven’t gotten a hold of a copy of Project Nemesis yet - or its sequels for that matter.  I’m making a note to get it the next time I make a purchase on Amazon.com, because yeah, it is right up my alley.

I’m definitely intrigued by the pitch of it - humans turning into kaiju (whether it’s a physical transformation or a psychic link or what have you) is a fascinating concept to me and one that can still be explored in a bunch of different ways.  Having a body that’s so effortlessly destructive tied to a mind that is as complex as a human’s is bound to create some interesting drama.

Before the announcement of Kadokawa’s official Gamera fiftieth anniversary project at New York Comic Con in October, it looked like the terrible terrapin’s special year was going to pass without incident or notice. In classic fan fashion, the fans weren’t having this, and stepped up to the plate to offer their own efforts in celebration of the other Big G’s half-century milestone. Here’s a masterpost of all the wonderful efforts made by fans to celebrate Gamera’s fiftieth.

“Gamera vs. Zine-Ra” by Hamish Steele (@hamishmash): A 72-page full-colour art book featuring artist submissions from some top illustrators and comic makers, including Tumblr’s own @legendfromthedeep.

“The Last Hope” by Matt Frank (@spankzilla85) and Joshua Bugosh: An unofficial “doujinshi” telling the untold story of Gamera’s Atlantean origins and his first skirmishes with the Gyaos. Expected in 2016!

Gamera Forever by Michael Callari (@astoundingbeyondbelief): A full-length compilation film comprised of Gamera vs. Zigra andGamera Super Monster which forms a more suitable conclusion to the Showa series. Featuring voice work from @mekagojira3k, @godzillasthunderthighs, and yours truly!

Gamera Lives by yours truly: A fake trailer for a hypothetical fiftieth anniversary Gamera film in the vein of Godzilla: Final Wars. Edited together using footage from (almost) every Gamera movie and others like Gatchaman and Ultraman The Next.

50 Years of Gamera | Year of Gamera (@yearofgamera): A Tumblr blog by @astoundingbeyondbelief chronicling Gamera’s half-century film career, as well as his expanded universe of appearances.

“Gamera: Hope” (Part 1 | Part 2) by Alex Gayhart (@mekagojira3k): A mini-comic highlighting moments from a person’s life who had connections to Gamera, written and with art by Alex himself.

30 Days of Gamera: A 30-day Tumblr countdown created by yours truly, with participating users answering a different Gamera-themed question every day through the month of November.

There have also been several incredible art prints created by the likes of @spankzilla85, @zornow13, @almightyrayzilla, and several others. Well done everyone for making the Year of Gamera truly our own! If I’ve forgotten anything or left anyone out, please do let me know!
