Michael D Hamersky On Comics Presents His Take On The...
 

The Final Night of  the 2013 Leo Carrillo Film Festival Season

 
Here's Adventure... Here's Romance... The Cisco Kid!
 
 
TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3956 -     Last night, Tina and I attended the Final Night of the 2013 Leo Carrillo Film Festival.
 
As mentioned in the last review blog, the Leo Carrillo Historic Ranch is celebrating its 10th Anniversary up big with this year's Film Festival.
 
Last night was quite a bit different from the normal presentations shown at this Film Festival.
 
That's because it had Richard Renaldo, son of Duncan Renaldo, as the main feature.
 
Richard and additional guest, Carol Waffel, were on hand to talk about the June 2013 Award given to Duncan Renaldo and Leo Carrillo. 
 
Duncan & Leo were inducted into the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum. For induction the actors needed to have made a significant contribution to the perpetuation of Western film, radio or theatre. They must project the traditional Western ideals of honesty, integrity and self-sufficiency. 
 
Richard then gave a presentation on 'The Cisco Kid in Film', a very entertaining & informative narration.
 
The next feature was what appeared to be a 1981 remix of an old 'Cisco Kid' TV episode featuring Duncan & Leo.
 
Then after intermission, was the 1949 feature film, Satan's Cradle, which was presented in black & white.
 
All in all this evening proved to be very satisfying to me. It was the first time that the Leo Carrillo Film Festival was devoted to the 'Cisco Kid' for the evening to my knowledge.
 
I'm really pleased with attending several of the 2013 Leo Carrillo Film Festival evenings this season, including the special Dinner & A Movie Night that kicked off the Season.
 
Oh, and the tie-in to comic books is the Cisco Kid series from Dell Comics. There are 41 issues of this series, as seen at this link.
 
My thanks to Charles Balteria and his staff for a great 2013 Season!

TODAY'S FEATURE IS (GUEST) BLOG #3955 -     A month ago, on August 20th, I posted blog #3934, which was about 'Bring On The Lucha Heroes' - 60 Years of Mexican Masked Wrestlers In Comics!

That was because I attended a special panel at the Latino Comics Expo in Long Beach, California.  The history and pictures presented at the panel were very cool!

Well... This coming October 19th... A special exhibition is being presented in San Diego.  At the Centro Cultural De La Raza at 2004 Park Blvd.

For those of you that have interest in this topic... This could be a special way to spend the day!

More info on the event can be found at the Facebook Fan Page

TV Show Was Predicted Back in 1965!

TODAY'S FEATURE IS (GUEST) BLOG #3954 -     I was looking at the upcoming TV Season Schedule, and made sure that we would be watching Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. this year.

I've already blogged about the new show, back on May 20th of this year in blog #3863, so yes, I'm looking forward to viewing it on the small screen!

However, looking over my collection of comics, I found in Daredevil #11 cover dated December of 1965, a reference to the same TV Show!

See the above scan to the top right, and at the bottom left of the panel...

It seems that I missed seeing the show back in 1965!

Only Stan Lee, (writer), Bob Powell, (penciler), Wally Wood, (inker), and Sam Rosen (letterer), knew about this TV Show!  Oh, and of course the readers of Daredevil #11!

Now, this year of 2013... We finally get to see it!

Be sure to watch it, as the TV show premieres September 24th at 8PM on ABC!

~ Michael

Today In History

 September 17th of 1862!
 
 
TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3952 -     Today's blog is on the Battle of Antietam, which was fought on this date back in 1862. 
 
The battle was the bloodiest one day battle in American history.  Over 23,000 casualities total on both sides, out of 100,000 soldiers participating.
 
More on this at the History Channel, and in the Volume 3 of Epic Battles of the Civil War comic book.
