I have been away for awhile due to personal issues but I have made arrangements in my life that will allow me to do things that I want to do and love. For my first showcases of the year, I decided to focus on a universe that debuted back in the '90s. That universe is the 2099 universe of heroes and villains from Marvel. When everyone, including myself, first saw Spider-Man 2099 they flipped out. But it was some of the other possibilities like the Punisher, Ghost Rider, and the X-Men that caught my interest even more. So, for my first showcase of 2024, I would like to discuss one of my favorite characters from the X-Men 2099 team. His name is Skullfire and here is his story.</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhNZVhC090nmoQVaPG4wUVPGXEJAJzFmL4UKcsCSaOrGoV00-vec4-TKxofCbivNsI-KfF4Mogxyx4IVjlWoAka9E00fblgQ_p54SpdQWjJthmmX2kbdysvAgXyDAOVDWdroolzPKWQhUgy0N1pMiAyGU_9ieE2RwoSWJlvVXiHmetwxXRT6M8hoFAcDie/s931/RCO020_1469508091.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="270" data-original-width="931" height="186" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhNZVhC090nmoQVaPG4wUVPGXEJAJzFmL4UKcsCSaOrGoV00-vec4-TKxofCbivNsI-KfF4Mogxyx4IVjlWoAka9E00fblgQ_p54SpdQWjJthmmX2kbdysvAgXyDAOVDWdroolzPKWQhUgy0N1pMiAyGU_9ieE2RwoSWJlvVXiHmetwxXRT6M8hoFAcDie/w640-h186/RCO020_1469508091.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><p></p><div> <span style="color: #04ff00; font-size: medium;"><b> </b><b>Timothy Fitzgerald (Fitz) was a wealthy, young urban professional until his mutant powers manifested and uncontrollable burst of energy destroyed his apartment and killed his girlfriend, Reiko.

Upon his arrival, Tim was surprised to see other mutants and other genetic outcasts socializing and enjoying themselves. He is introduced to X-Man Serpentina and then their leader Xi'an. However, Tim notices a sniper attempting to assassinate Xi'an. He foils the attempt, but Xi'an is still injured. During their mission to save Xi'an and escape the assassins, Serpentina is killed by a mutant known as Junkpile.

This trauma triggers his powers, shorting out the equipment around him and helping them all escape (including Luna who had been a slave of the Theatre for 10 years).

It is here where they encounter La Lunatica again and she and Tim begin a relationship that would last for the remainder of the comic's run. Tim agrees to help her escape the pursuit of the Theatre of Pain, though he is mostly ineffective against their leader, Brimstone Love, when Love attacks them at the Driver's garage.

Rollins Vs Nakamura has been the Feud that the WWE has needed for a long time. They work well together and this new version of Nakamura is refreshing. They are allowing Shinsuke to finally be the talent that he always has been. The WWE universe is starting to get the taste of what it was to be a Nakamura fan in his New Japan glory days. I hope Nakamura gets the win, nothing against Rollins mind you. It's just that they have overlooked Nakamura on too many occasions since he was brought up from nXt. Oh, this will be a battle but I think Shinsuke needs to win tonight because this might be the last chance he gets while Rollins holds the title.</span></b></p><p><b><span style="font-size: large;">Winner: Nakamura</span></b></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjg0NTEK8-IFLallu7laS7uSiBPhA1NMubu46jB5_LXJhw_ydH7vgX4J_5GrgacDkpm_dTLcrBaZSXd2p5JH7zARvKx8GLw1vYtn5e_PDbBaufiOO2R6FL1s1V9o0ifjcUj5goXp3gYZLwnTqWnPXXi7EYR7eqo7zw3ymEK1KXDC3kj07uBtUAjvw9Pn9bv/s1920/20230922_Fastlane_Match_LACena_Bloodline_FC_Day_Date--80a0c761227e9314c3a3c8648e40734f.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1920" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjg0NTEK8-IFLallu7laS7uSiBPhA1NMubu46jB5_LXJhw_ydH7vgX4J_5GrgacDkpm_dTLcrBaZSXd2p5JH7zARvKx8GLw1vYtn5e_PDbBaufiOO2R6FL1s1V9o0ifjcUj5goXp3gYZLwnTqWnPXXi7EYR7eqo7zw3ymEK1KXDC3kj07uBtUAjvw9Pn9bv/w640-h360/20230922_Fastlane_Match_LACena_Bloodline_FC_Day_Date--80a0c761227e9314c3a3c8648e40734f.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div><br /></div><b><span style="font-size: large;">Now we shall take a look at the Bloodline Vs Cena & LA Knight. We all know that the Bloodline is spreading themselves thin by getting into situations they shouldn't. I mean, the Tribal Chief takes a well deserved break and he cannot enjoy it because Jimmy is acting like he is the right hand. Well, Jimmy, the right hand of the tribal chief was and will always be Main Event Jey Uso. So, you let your actions get in some heat with Styles, Knight and Cena. Okay, so they took care of Styles for the moment but they still have a momentum train heading their way. If the Bloodline win, it will be due to some outside help from the Judgement Day or maybe the Tribal Chief himself. All I know is, this feud will not end at Fastlane.

We have the Judgement Day Vs the team of Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso. Jey and Cody have been tag champs before, but as a team they don't have the history that Finn and Priest have. Plus, they don't have the numbers. So, I expect some great action but I also expect the other members of the judgement day to get involved. If Rhea gets involved, look for Jade to come out and shoot her shot. Not only would she be helping Cody, but she would launch herself to the number one contender spot for the Women's championship. I am looking forward to this clash of champions, but I already know my boys from the Judgement Day will walk out on top.</span></b></div><div><b><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></b></div><div><b><span style="font-size: large;">Winner: the Judgement Day</span></b><br /><p><br /></p></div>Derf's Domainhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18195936735394595883noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3588030349922983410.post-76531108501656732462023-10-05T18:30:00.003-05:002023-10-05T18:30:25.228-05:00Derf's Picks of the Week (October 4, 2023)<div class="separator" style="clear: both;

I like what the Judgement Day is doing and I have been a fan of Fin since Day 1. However, I am a Kevin Owens fan as well so my heart is torn.

If anyone can take Rollins championship, it would be Shinsuke. If Rollins' back is as hurt as Nakamura claims, then it is going to be a long night for the champ. I was thinking that Shinsuke could actually pull a victory over Seth but something I read a few moments ago troubles me. It was announced that the Great Muta will be at the PPV. Of course, one would assume he would be in Nakamura's corner. But what if the Architect has put a plan together? Either way it will be a great match, but I fear the outcome will be decided by Muta's interference.</span></b></p><p><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Winner: and still your Heavyweight Champion, Seth "Freakin" Rollins</span></b></p>Derf's Domainhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18195936735394595883noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3588030349922983410.post-85099441740429481852023-08-03T17:36:00.006-05:002023-08-03T17:36:56.018-05:00Derf's Picks of the Week (08/02/23)<p></p><div style="text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqsXz5SPSeSu42zfIHBVqTKyM0RnELmsBX22pirbJxqzLnpVe0ZdPFbJSppZbQfvmdRpCrygtwIbKQ0oR4_CucdTD5bYRZe0OUTjmotu7pVEgFCoPIUAHw6ApafHfZYUPS3C-vRIQVNTDzOkilEBXt9lEAmIB3lDmeEHXi1v9etgGY7hHEZpqZzCqn-DHt/s2620/Fall%20of%20X.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2032" data-original-width="2620" height="496" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqsXz5SPSeSu42zfIHBVqTKyM0RnELmsBX22pirbJxqzLnpVe0ZdPFbJSppZbQfvmdRpCrygtwIbKQ0oR4_CucdTD5bYRZe0OUTjmotu7pVEgFCoPIUAHw6ApafHfZYUPS3C-vRIQVNTDzOkilEBXt9lEAmIB3lDmeEHXi1v9etgGY7hHEZpqZzCqn-DHt/w640-h496/Fall%20of%20X.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Well, July is gone...but have no fear August is here!</span></b></p><p style="text-align: center;">***********************************************************************************</p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">BOOM!</span></b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Buffy: The Last Vampire Slayer #1</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Grim #12</b></p><p style="text-align: center;">***********************************************************************************</p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">DARK HORSE</span></b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Hellboy and the B.P.R.D.: 1957 - From Below #1</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Order & Outrage #4</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Star Wars: Hyperspace Stories #7</b></p><p style="text-align: center;">***********************************************************************************</p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">DC COMICS</span></b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Justice Society of America #5</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Knight Terrors: Batman #2</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Knight Terrors: Black Adam #2</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Knight Terrors: The Joker #2</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Knight Terrors: Poison Ivy #2</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Knight Terrors: Ravager #2</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Peacemaker Tries Hard! #4</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>The Sandman Universe Special: Thessaly #1</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Steelworks #3</b></p><p style="text-align: center;">***********************************************************************************</p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">IDW</span></b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Dark Spaces: Good Deeds #3</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Earthdivers: Aschan</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - The Dog of War #5</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Star Trek: Defiant #6</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin - The Lost Years #5</b></p><p style="text-align: center;">***********************************************************************************</p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">IMAGE</span></b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>The Sacrificers #1</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Spawn #344</b></p><p style="text-align: center;">***********************************************************************************</p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">MARVEL</span></b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>The Amazing Spider-Man Annual #1</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Astonishing Iceman #1</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Death of the Venomverse #1</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Doctor Strange #6</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Fantastic Four #10</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Magneto #1</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Moon Knight #26</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Star Wars: Dark Droids #1</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Star Wars: Yoda #10</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Strange Academy: Miles Morales #1</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Warlock: Rebirth #5</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>What If...?
