The Marvelous Oracle of Oz: January 2015
http://ozoracle.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 18, 2015. I kept what I'd done in the middle, threw everything else out, and colored it Emerald for the city. Tomorrow I hope to finish up the little four-page booklet to go with the deck. It may be that I need more than four pages. We'll see. once that's done, it's All Systems Go. I'll order up the proof deck, and you'll see photos of that here as soon as it arrives. Barring delay on The Game Crafter's part, the deck ought to be on sale quite early in February. The Party's Almost Over.

The Tarot of Mister Punch: January 2015
http://punchtarot.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 27, 2015. A Different Kind of Wheel. I think that I'm on pretty safe ground to say that no one has ever used a keg of wine as their Wheel of Fortune before. But the original illustration even included the X on the front of the barrel. it was just too good to resist. And Mister Punch. Is certainly in command in the Sphinx position on top. As an aside, the font I've chosen was designed to emulate the hand-lettering of Maxfield Parrish. Monday, January 26, 2015. Oh Dunderbeck, oh Dunderbeck...

It's Duck Soup: The Cosby Show
http://www.ducksoup.me/2015/07/the-cosby-show.html
Wednesday, July 8, 2015. For at least one white kid growing up in the 60's with undiagnosed Asperger’s (in fact the diagnosis did not even exist until the early 80’s), Bill Cosby was more than just a cultural phenomenon and one of the coolest guys on TV — he was also kind of a lifesaver. I knew Cosby was a Big Deal in popular culture, but for saving my life in summer camp, for that I loved him. Later, as I grew into a young man, shows like Monty Python’s Flying Circus. Even as the evidence mounted agains...

It's Duck Soup: An ISBN for the Zirkus
http://www.ducksoup.me/2015/05/an-isbn-for-zirkus.html
Thursday, May 21, 2015. An ISBN for the Zirkus. It's official - the First Edition of my Tarot of the Zirkus Magi. Is now available on Amazon: http:/ www.amazon.com/gp/product/0988414058. In order to make that happen, I had to assign an ISBN to the deck. That number is 978-0-9884140-5-1. So now, theoretically at least, it can be ordered by and from brick-and-mortar bookstores everywhere. And see all the other decks I have on offer. From Fortune Telling Playing Cards.

It's Duck Soup: For DOCTOR WHO Geeks Only
http://www.ducksoup.me/2015/07/for-doctor-who-geeks-only.html
Wednesday, July 29, 2015. For DOCTOR WHO Geeks Only. Has a formidable reputation in Doctor Who. History for just three reasons: First, it introduces the Cybermen to the series. Second, It marks the end of William Hartnell's three-year-plus tenure as The Doctor, and ushers in his replacement, Patrick Troughton. And third - the fourth and final episode does not exist anymore in any form other than an audio soundtrack, which has made an official DVD release or even a television airing impossible. The story ...

http://www.ducksoup.me/2015/05/announcing-tip-of-iceberg.html
Thursday, May 14, 2015. Announcing the tip of an Iceberg:. For many years before and after World War II, both in her native Estonia and in America, Mme. Loviise MÄGI. Plied her trade as part-time aerialist and full-time fortune teller with the little family-owned ZIRKUS MÄGI *. Indeed, Mme. Loviise’s only child, Mirjam Vargas. Remembered the deck well, and confirmed that her mother used it only for personal and family readings. Was making such a name for herself in and around Paris, Mme. Kallaste. An inc...

It's Duck Soup: Brave New World
http://www.ducksoup.me/2015/06/brave-new-world.html
Wednesday, June 3, 2015. If you come around here often enough, you’ll know that I’ve already made a couple of posts about Peter Jackson’s trilogy of movies based on The Hobbit. Here’s one more, one last. Post, in which New Developments emerge from the corners of Fandom to change everything. Even if you don’t like Tolkien or movies based on his books, read on — something interesting is happening here. God only knows how many hours those bugs chomp on Andy Sirkis’s head in the extended version. For someone...
