Cryer from the Castle 12/16

New comics and this week's events.  Note that the Disney Lorcana Infinity Weekend does run all weekend.  Just bring in a partner, play a 3 game match and both players receive the Whole New World Card.  We will set a specific time for people to come in if they wish after talking with players at Wednesday's league session.

Disco Queen/Dazzler

 Dazzler was originally conceived as a multi-media concept with Casablanca  Records. Originally named Disco Queen, she was conceived as a black disco singer with a character design based on Grace Jones. Originally her power was to force others to tell the truth, similar to Wonder Woman's lasso. However, the proposed writer argued that would not make for interesting visuals, egro a change to light based powers. Marvel would release a comic featuring the character while Casablanca would release a record.  The two companies would co-operate on half hour animated special. Unfortunately, Casablanca ran into financial difficulties and pulled out of the project.

About that time, filmmaker John  Derek got interested in the character as a movie project featuring his wife Bo. The character was retooled as a white singer with facial features based on Bo Derek's and the project started moving forward, this time as a movie/comic project. Unfortunately, the Derek's previous project Tarzan the Ape Man flopped at the box office and they pulled out, leaving Dazzler as a comic only character, appearing first in Uncanny X-men #130

Wolverine

Here is a bit of interesting comic history.  Wolverine was originally planned to be a real wolverine.  No really. The character's original origin tied into the High Evolutionary, who was a common foe of many Marvel heroes, especially the Avengers, during the 1970s. the High Evolutionary was especially known for his evolutionary experiments on animals, making them bipedal and giving them human or near human intelligence. 
 
Under this version of his origin, the High Evolutionary would have experimented on a wolverine, giving him human intelligence and stature but keeping his aggressive nature. Wolverine would have escaped from Wundargore Mountain, unaware of his true nature and becoming an agent of the Canadian government and later an X-man. This version of his origin was, of course dumped, although some trace of it remained in early issues, especially when he was captured and scanned and the results indicated unusual readings indicating something odd about his mutant status.  After those first issues, the matter was never mentioned agin.

Pokemon

 Pokemon is still moving hotly here. We did receive a tiny shipment of gift sets and a restock of Prismatic Evolution boosters, with more Phantasmal Flames on the way so get some while we have them. I keep waiting for this current boom to end but not so far.

Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

 If you purchased a copy of the #Dnd2024 Forge of the Artificer handbook from us, stop by and pick up a free copy of Fated Flight of the Recluse. WotC send these out as an apology for the delay in the release of the handbook.

If you remember, Artificer was scheduled for release late last summer but the entire print run had warped covers, so the company scrapped the print run and ordered another one.
