Tanya's Egyptian Potion (Red Xenomorph Addendum) An homage to the 'Egyptian' Tanya (MKX) for this Red Xenomorph addendum. ==== Tanya had already proven herself by allying with Shinook and defying the reign of Shao Kahn and was ready to challenge even the likes of Kotal Kahn in Outworld...

The new MK video-games offer awesome and offbeat fighting characters or avatars including Jason Voorhees and the Xenomorph (from the Alien sci-fi horror films), so I thought I'd offer up a special MK-fanfiction about the nonstandard Red Xenomorph making its way onto a new human gaming platform...

Kitana/Mileena Desiging government models in Outworld based on the leadership of Raiden requires a handsome dosage of monarchy-creativity, since of course, the 'female angels' of Mortal Kombat (e.g., Kitana, Mileena) represent imaginative kinds of social ornamentation. This sort of video-game...

Kitana is my favorite MK female character, so I decided to devote a special section describing her potential future 'reign' over Outworld under the tutelage of the original MK tournament champion, Raiden (god of lighting!). Thanks for reading, ==== "Kitana was appointed to become the Queen...

Ermac/Kitana I'm personally really psyched about the 'aesthetic feel' of this approach to Raiden fan-lore, so here's a final addendum about some politics-exposure for the master of lightning from Mortal Kombat. Thanks for reading, ==== Well, as it stood, Raiden was about to get a new...

Chapter 2: The Green Recruits This is a second chapter describing Raiden and Scarlet having to possibly come out of peaceful retirement to witness the vengeance aspirations of two intriguing females, Jade (semi-heroic female assassin and once-servant of Shao Khan and friend of Princess Kitana)...

I've always been a big fan of the Mortal Kombat character Raiden (god of lightning) and consider him a true mainstay of the iconic video game franchise which now includes full-length films. This short-story about Raiden falling in love with a female swordsman and sorceress named Scarlet...

NINTENDO vs. SEGA? I love the NES Classic, and there are two definitive sports games from that 'vintage era' that really mark the dividing line between the NES and the well-realized Sega Genesis --- Tecmo Bowl (Nintendo) and World Championship Soccer (Sega). Playing with the Miami Dolphins on...

Alastair: A Russian Vampire This tale was inspired by Russian vampirism folklore. Here's a cool link: Vampireunderworld.com This tale was also inspired by the ninja Mortal Kombat character Smoke (a warrior of odd appearance who seems to signify some natural curiosity about gender...

Traffic Lights? It might prove market-savvy to do a study of TV 'couture' and its relationship to 'community values' (in relation to modern-traffic issues such as immigration/multiculturalism, networking/Internet, commerce/ethics). That's what makes me optimistic about 'TrumpUSA'... ====...

I used to collect baseball cards (I own the 1986 Topps Traded set), video games (I own Tecmo Bowl, Mario Bros., and Kings of the Beach), and comic books (I own X-Men, Hulk, Harley Quinn, and Wonder Woman comics), but now I'm getting interested in various kinds of Christianity-themed (crusades...

Substance Ideas? Cyrax arguably boasts the coolest self-destruct feature/mortality attack in the history of the MK franchise. This makes Cyrax a terrific complement to Erron Black, the outlander-type 'cowboy wanderer' prone avatar. In fact, a Cyrax vs. Erron Black confrontation makes for...

Comic Books The popularity of comic book characters and adapted films such as Iron Man 3 gives us a new breed of action-adventure intrigue villains such as Aldrich Killian (Guy Pearce) and creates a different kind of 'bravado storytelling.' It's that simple... ==== KILLIAN: You're too...

Oracle of Romance?? Kitana is so under-appreciated and is always overshadowed by Mileena (IMO). Most gamers prefer Kitana's more devious twin Mileena, but Kitana's fans make her unique and a great foil for Baraka's blades, Kung Lao's metal hat, and even Raiden's electricity. Kitana fan-comics...

I want to see Aquagirl...

The Adventures of Ramanujan I had a really strange one where I dreamt I was on a weekend-retreat of prominent scholars/professors including Ramanujan but the weekend-retreat was being interrupted by the terrifying Leatherface running around with his distinctive chainsaw. I managed to...

Devil of a Good Time(?) The trailer for this gives me the creeps. It looks just as good as the Tim Curry miniseries one from 1990... When I think of Pennywise, I think of Shiva (Hindu god of destruction), so I don't feel to frightened (hey I need a stabilizing force to deal with a freak like...

The Penguins are up 2-0 in the Stanley Cup Finals, and boy am I giddy! Maybe Sidney Crosby will achieve what no other athlete in no other field of sports has been able to achieve --- overshadowing the monstrous LeBron James (NBA).

That Magic Feeling! I really enjoyed watching the 2000 NBA Finals (Lakers-Pacers), because I followed the Pacers that season who were very entertaining. I was a supporting fan of the Reggie Miller-Jalen Rose tandem on the Indiana Pacers which produced a great deal of solid basketball before...

The Celebrity Fix Look, I'm not implying that I intend to formalize/intellectualize Starbucks culture, but what I would like to do is draw attention to the peculiar sociological fact that American society is seemingly focused on the psychological 'impact' of a 'convenience-based lifestyle'...
