Angelina Jolie... 

Featured On Front Cover  of Parade Magazine!           

Angelina is on the front cover of Parade Magazine today, with the article title of:

Actress, activist and mother Angelina Jolie:

'How I Found My Way'

It is a good article on Angelina, with some background history, her recent marriage to Brad Pitt, the children they have, and her activism in world affairs.

Angelina was born in 1975, and was cast in a few movies before her Tomb Raider breakout film in 2001 !

She portrayed Lara Croft, who is a member of a rich British aristocratic family. She enjoys collecting ancient artifacts from ruins of temples, tombs, cities, and other places worldwide, and goes through death-defying dangers to obtain them. She is skilled in hand-to-hand combat, weapons training, and foreign languages  and does them all in tight outfits as per the video game. 

Angelina's looks definitely helped fill the tight outfits role, and being the daughter of actor Jon Voight gave her a good background in acting. 

The movie made Angelina an international movie star, thus during the summer of 2003 the sequel, Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life, was released. 

After seeing her at the SDCC movies program Tina and I acquired more respect for her as she came across very well to her audience of over 6,000 in speaking and answering questions from her fans. Before that program Tina didn't all that much of her. She came across a lot better than Halle Berry did in the same hall in the program before Angelina's.

Angelina later starred in 'Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow', with Jude Law and Gwyneth Paltrow which I really enjoyed also !

We All Know That

The Twilight Zone...

...was a Great TV Show Series!

However most people don't know that the Twilight Zone had FOUR Comic Book Sets !

This past week we sold some of the TZ comics we have for sale to 'The Twilight Zone Archives' and after checking out their web site, wanted to recommend it to you for viewing!  It is on the web at: Click Here   The web pages make fascinating reading !!

For others of you that are also interested in Twilight Zone Comics, there were two one-shot comics published by Dell Comics in their Four Color series, #1173 (May 1961) & #1288 (April 1962) .

Then the Gold Key Comics comic books series was published from 1962 to circa 1982 ending with issue #92.

A now defunct company, 'Now Comics', (no pun intended), published the second volume from November 1991 to March 1993.

As a lot of comic book companies did in the 1990's, Now Comics stopped publishing the second volume, and with a new #1 issue, started volume three in May 1993 which ended with #4 in August 1993. Supposedly comic companies could sell a lot of #1 issues, so several long running comic titles were 'rebooted' this way!

Compare this with the TV show, which ran from 1959 to 1964 in its' first series with 156 different episodes.

After Rod Serling sold his shares of the Twilight Zone back to the network that originally ran them, the TV Show had its' first revival from 1985 - 1989.

Then the Twilight Zone had a 2 hour TV Movie in 1994, which did not go on to become a TV Show series.

It wasn't until 2002 that UPN had a revival of the show with Forest Whitaker as the narrator. Unfortunately that revival only ran until 2003!

For those interested in Twilight Zone Comics and other HoRRoR / MoNSTer comics, we have several hundred comic books in our eBay Featured Store and eBay Pro Store.
