Godzilla vs. Hitchcock

This blog combines the two most wonderful worlds that can do no wrong in my mind:  Alfred Hitchcock and the mighty Godzilla.   So far it is mostly just pictures of Godzilla Photoshopped into Hitchcock movie posters, but it may become so much more.

NCA

                After spanning nearly a decade, Nacho Cheese and Anarchy (or NCA for short) was a ‘zine, webzine and even emailzine all done under the name of Josh Nacho.    Though the primary focus was music, with band interviews, CD reviews and live show reviews, there were other non-musical bits mixed in.   During its run, I had the honor and sometimes disgrace of interviewing the following bands:  Anberlin, Allister, Aiden, Atreyu, The Audition, Alison Danger,The All-American Rejects, Breaking Pangea, The Beautiful Mistake,  Bayside, The Break, Boy Sets Fire, Brazil, Copeland, Catch 22, Christiansen, CurlUpandDie, Cadillac Blindside, Coheed and Cambria, Charlie Brown Gets a Valentine, Delta Dart, Dashboard Confessional, Feable Weiner, Forgive Durden, The Forecast, Fairweather, From Autumn to Ashes, Grade, Gym Class Heroes, Give Up the Ghost, Gatsbys American Dream, The Hope Conspiracy, Haste, Hopesfall, The Hurt Process, I Am the Avalanche, JamisonParker,The Junior Varsity, Liars Academy, The Lyndsey Diaries, Murder by Death, My Chemical Romance, mae, mewithoutYou, The Movielife, Moment, New Found Glory,  Nerf Herder, On the Might of Princes, Prevent Falls, Panic!

                Through several different website I won’t name as well as some print issues which do exist out there, all you need to know about NCA can be found either on the internet or in my closet.   Unfortunately, I do not have time to catalog it all myself and no one else has offered.   So you’re on your own if you want to find it.
                As the blog address says:  NCA is dead… and it’s not coming back!!

X4X5

X1 is what you look like in your normal, everyday clothes.   X2 is what you look like in your underwear- bras, panties and what not.   X3 is your flesh- naked, nudity, XXX and all that you know.   X4 is when you remove your skin and can see the muscles and organs.   X5 is when you cut straight down to the bone.   X4X5 is an art project focusing on what lies underneath the skin.

The Untimely Adventures of Deadboy and Jake

What happens when a young boy is killed and he somehow stays on earth?   Well, he befriends a cat named Jake and they get into adventures and seemingly all the wrong times.   This is scheduled to be a twisted sort of children’s book.   It’s heavy on the pictures and light on the words, so you could show it to your young ones… but you might not want to!!

Serious Accusations

While I have pretty much distanced myself from professional wrestling in most aspects, sometimes I still feel the need to write something about the industry.   When I do, it gets posted here.  And yes, I mainly did start this blog to question whether or not WWE directly did kill Owen Hart.   Sometimes I just offer predictions, suggestions and commentaries on what’s going on in the world of wrestling.

sodAPOCALYPSE

I like soda.  I mean, I really like soda.   Do you remember that soda called Surge?  Of course you don’t.  Many people don’t.   I one day decided I’d like to take pictures of all of these sodas that are made and just the general look of their cans and bottles.   Then I decided why not alter them in Photoshop as well, just for fun.   This is the end result of that madness.   Enjoy it before we go zero calorie diet.

Post Kaiju Apocalypse

                Started in late 2010 as a way to review horror movies and B movies, Post Kaiju Apocalypse has transitioned into something much more.   While still a source of movie reviews of all sorts, it is also a blog that is a host to a number of other topics which span from the random to the mundane.    It has a bit of a personal touch and can be political at times.

Little Blue Bunny of Happiness

Random sketches of a little blue bunny, originally created on Facebook.  I’d love for one day everyone to make their own take on this delightful little character getting into situations.  He’s really pretty self explanatory. 

ICC Reality

When I was a kid I loved cereal.   In fact, I still love cereal, just not in the same way I did as a kid.   I blame that on the emphasis companies have these days of making cereals healthy instead of the main focus being the prize inside.    This blog is for those of you who look forward to that special time of the year when Boo Berry comes out.   “Cereality” was already taken, so I tried to make this like “I See Cereality”, which then got abbreviated into ICC Reality.   Does that make sense or have I confused you?   Who cares.  Just look at the pretty pictures of cereal mascots.
                This blog should be updated at least four times a year, sometimes maybe six depending on how busy the world of cereal is.

Grocereveal

I don’t go out of my way to find shopping lists on the ground, left behind by someone on accident at the local super market or Walmart.   But when I do find them, I like to review them.  If I do one a year I’d be pleased.

f:MIC

All of the art I do that doesn’t find itself somewhere else, ends up under this banner.   Paintings, sketches, whatever.   Why this name?  Maybe I’ll tell you one day if you buy me a beer or two and have about three hours to spend.

City Beach Toys

When I got really hardcore into collecting wrestling figures—like, a serious addiction- I also then got into making custom wrestling figures.   I rehabbed that habit, but am now painting Roseart Color Blanks and whatever else I can get my hands on.  This is the name I decided to do it under.  If you understand why, then congratulations.

Ape Man

After watching too many movies about Bigfoot, I wondered what would happen if they were like the movies and really kind of got smarter over time.    As they turn from men into apes, they begin to shave off the body hair that makes them stand out in society.   This is a comic strip based upon the adventures of one of these sasquatches in particular who is constantly put in situations when he might have to take his clothes off and reveal he isn’t human at all.  The first volume collects 52 strips and is complete.   Its release date at this time is uncertain.
