And today we have some cosplay from Across the Spider-Verse, the second Miles Morales Spider-Man animated movie.

This is Hobie Brown/Spider-Punk from Earth-138.  He's a punk rock Spider-Man who's guitar is his primary weapon.  And he's VERY anti-Establishment and pro-anarchy.  But this cosplay is dead on!

My birthday song, my happy world (Part 246)......

 Badass Birthday

On this date, in 1961 in Brooklyn New York, Eddie Murphy was born. 

He was a standup comedian as a teenager, and a regular on Saturday Night Live at 19.  He was on the show at a low point in it's history, but he was a break out star.  Gumby, Buckwheat, Mr. Robinson, Velvet Jones, etc.  

He left the show for a movie career: 

48 Hrs

Trading Places

Beverly Hills Cop 

Golden Child

Coming To America

Nutty Professor

Mulan (voice)

Dr. Doolittle

Shrek (voice)

He had a kind of music career....which was thankfully not long lasting. 

He's been nominated for an Oscar and a BAFTA, won a Golden Globe with 5 other nominations, won a Grammy (for his comedy album) and nominated for two others, won an Emmy and nominated for 4 others, and won a Screen Actors Guild Award and nominated for another one.

Also, there's a damn good documentary about his life called Being Eddie.  Saw it not too long again, very well done.

On this date 1914, 122 years ago, Sir Alec Guinness was born in London England. 

He was a distinguished actor who earned a Oscar, a BAFTA, a Golden Globe, and a Tony.   In 1959 he as knighted by Queen Elizabeth II.  In 1960 he received a star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame.   His career started in 1922 at the age of 18 when he first appeared on stage.  After fighting in WWII, he started making movies in 1949.  He starred in Great Expectations, Oliver Twist, The Bridge On The River Kwai, Lawrence Of Arabia, Doctor Zhivago, Scrooge.  In his later years he starred in several BBC TV series.

All of these are indeed pretty impressive.  But what makes him a complete and total badass is his role of Obi-Won Kenobi in the original Star Wars trilogy!

He passed in 2000, at the age of 86.

Night arrives with her purple legion (Part 1)....

 Legion Lore

Sixty seven years ago, in April 1958 Adventures Comics #247 as published.  The story inside was a Superboy story, done by writer Otto Binder and artist Al Plastino.   The gist of the story was that a team of super teens from 1000 years in the future came back in time to meet Superboy and invite him to join the "superhero club". 

The story was supposed to be just a one shot, a one time story.  But the team was so popular with readers they made other appearance, then shared a title with Superboy and eventually got their own title.  

In the early 80s, the Legion and the New Teen Titans were DC Comics highest selling titles, outselling Superman titles, Batman titles, Justice League titles.  And the Legion was a great title, until 1989 or so.  They ended the original title and a few months later started republishing from #1 but it was the team 5 yeas later...and they were a depressing, dark, dystopian era.  After several years of this, they just rebooted the entire series again, starting over from a #1 in an 'all new' timeline where the Legion was just starting.  Some characters were the same, others were different.  After a time of this title, it evolved into another dystopian era, and after a bit, they ended it.  Then they rebooted it again, this time with Supergirl in the team.  Some characters were the same, some we entirely different, some all new.  After a bit of this, they ended the series.   After a few years Brad Meltzer and Geoff Johns brought back the team from right before the 5 years later era as if that 5 years later stuff never happened.  And after a short while, with a change of creative teams, that era went to shit, so they canceled it.  DC then did the Flashpoint idiocy, rebooting their entire into nothing but shit, and I gave up on DC Comics entirely. 

I have all the versions of the Legion up until I gave up on the company, whether the teams were good bad or mediocre.  It was one of my favorite teams so I stuck with it through thick and thin, again until I gave up on the company. 

So since it's their 67th anniversary, I'm starting a new semi-regular feature.  I'm going to feature the members of the Legion (and some members of the Legion of Substitute Heroes as well as some of the better members of the first rebooted Legion) in the order they joined the team. 

First up, we have....

Cosmic Boy

Rokk Krinn is from the planet Braal.  Everyone on Braal has the ability to control and manipulate metal, but Rokk was the best a champion at the sport of Magno-Ball, even at the age of 14.  The planet had been in a long recession and there weren't many job prospects to he decided to come to Earth to see what he could find there.  And on that trip he helped found the Legion Of Super-Heroes!

Incidentally, they first appeared in the late 70s, when the Uncanny X-Men were at their height.  And they're rumored to be a pastiche of the X-Men. 

Mist Master - Kitty Pryde (both can become intangible)

Lazon - Cyclops (later beams)

Blok - Colossus (non flesh strong & tough)
