BRING ON THE BAD GUYS: Anthony Freemont
BRING ON THE BAD GUYS...ANTHONY FREEMONT
CHILD ABUSE!
Words By Raymond Tyler
On November 3rd , 1961 narrator Rod Serling introduced the world to one of the most memorable monsters ever. And unlike Frankenstein or The Wolf Man, little Anthony Freemont (played by fiction and science vet Billy Mumy) looked neither scary or fearsome.
That is, until Anthony focused those eyes on you and reasoned you didn't like him.
Then things would get as bad for you as a line worker at Starbucks telling Paris Hilton there is no more avacato/lemon spice/something else absurd mocha-chino.

Anthony had the power to do anything his mind could dream up and absolutely no one to check him at all.
From the moment I saw The Twilight Zone episode IT'S A GOOD LIFE I was jealous because as a kid we were told that the monsters had fangs and long claws.
I thought writer Jerome Bixby's premise of making the monster a little boy was genious.

I believe that elements of It's a Good Life and the study of "God" in human form could be seen in later Ficton and Science offerings such as STAR TREK and Jean Grey of The X-Men (more so the Chris Claremont/John Byrne versions.

| In the pages of X Men writer Chris Claremont, and artist John Byrne examine what would happen if a hero gained more power than they could control. If I ever get the time I have a great idea for a story...where Q or Tralane shows up in Peaksville, Ohio. |

Fiction And Science.com Remembers Sherman Hemsley
Remembering Sherman Hemsley Words By Raymond Tyler!
Today we lost a great actor who blazed trails for many actors on TV.
Sherman Hemsley will indeed remember Hemsley as George Jefferson.
Here he is with another trailblazing actor Ron Glass (of Barney Miller) in what may be the best episodeof The 1980's Twilight Zone.
While I do not co sign stories about the devil...however this one is a classic.
On another Fiction and Science matter. Hemsley also played the boss at WE SAY SO on the show Dinosaurs.
He will be missed.

Happy Birthday To Trevor Von Eeden
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TREVOR VON EEDON
From Fiction And Science.com
From Fiction And Science.com
Tuesday July 24th
Illustrator Trevor Von Eedon was a teen phenom when he teamed up with Tony Isabella to co-create the iconic Black Lightning for DC Comics. (1960's)
Of course Black Lightning was totally ripped off in the "creation" of Black Vulcan who appeared in Challenge Of The Super Friends. (1970's)
It was a CRIME that Black Lightning was NEVER featured in the great series Justice League Unlimited. (2000's)
However, the effects of Black Lightning is still being felt by writers and artists of all colors.
Thanks Mr. Von Eedon and please enjoy The Happiest Of Birthday's.
