New Forum

So since I'm banned from Facebook, I can't access the Facebook TVCU forum, or it's predecessor, the Crossovers Forum, or the Facebook forums related to the podcast Random Fandom or the forum for the book Horror Crossover Encyclopedia.  So I've created a new forum on the very inferior (but at least they'll have me) Google Plus, which you can find if you click here.   Come find me to talk about the Television Crossover Universe, Crossovers, the Horror Crossover Encyclopedia, Cartoon Multiverse, Sci-Fi Multiverse, DC Multiverse, Marvel Multiverse, Comic Book History, Comics to Screen, the Whoniverse, etc, etc.

HOUR-SHOW COMICS TIMELINE

KAPTAIN'S LOG: A chronological Timeline of the HOUR-SHOW COMICS universe Kaptain Kevin, 1979 Before there was Ivan Ronald Schablotski, there was a superhero we'll call Kid Kilovolt (though he’s better known as KAPTAIN KEVIN). Many of the stories I came up with for Ivan were adapted from KK adventures. The original version, which is not detailed here, was a boy with no powers at all, but believed that the instruction manual he found in the desert (dropped by Ralph Hinkley in the pilot episode of THE GREATEST AMERICAN HERO) was intended for him and his friends, so they made costumes and practiced using their powers, which were of course non-existent.
