The RetroBlog Thanksgiving Turkey for 2025 Is...


Wait!
WHAT???

Where is that damn intern???
WTF is going on???
"You said "pull the poster for yadda-yadda-Man-yadda-Flint-yadda-sitting in a chair surrounded by women!"
That's not what I meant!
This is what I meant!
(and yes, the poster was deliberately-designed to mimic Bob Peake's iconic art!)
Now that is a turkey worth roasting...although what we're presenting is the HTF comic book adaptation...which is quite different from the film!
(With the long lead-in time to write, draw, and print the comic, I suspect they only had the early drafts of the script to adapt.)
At any rate,
Part 1 will run on Thanksgiving!
Part 2 will appear on Black Friday!

And, here's a kool early Christmas present for you...
On Saturday, the original, uncut theatrical print (including the pre-credits sequence with Wilma instead of Lady Liberty holding the Columbia torch aloft!) will be seen for the first time in decades, so you can compare it with the comic!
So Visit Secret Sanctum of Captain Video on Thanksgiving...or wander over on Saturday (after shopping on Black Friday) if you want to binge everything at once!
