Invented Original Characters: Thomas Caldwell
Growing up my dream job was to be a comic book artist/writer. But with very little artistic talent that dream died pretty quickly. Now I do my best to bring my characters to life using apps like factory of heroes, swordmaker, armormaker and you doodle. They don't always turn out looking very good but I get more excited about the concepts and stories behind the characters than how well I can make the character look good. Sometimes my characters are from cultures I am not a part of because I think it fits their story or other aspects about them. I am not a cultural expert but at the very least I hope no one is upset by me using aspects of cultures I'm not a part of and find interesting. That said below is my idea for Thomas Caldwell, head of an evil organization that creates vampires.

Solbearers: Part 6- Transpacific
Cassandra zoned out reclining in the luxurious seats of Shinji's private jet. This was not the utilitarian craft used in the "clean sweep" mission from nights ago but instead a more flamboyant status symbol of a wealthy businessman. "Now let's get back to your lamprey problem" Chen said, interrupting Cassandra's relaxed state.

From Clowns to Crew: What One Piece Episodes 6–10 Taught Me About Life
In my first essay, I wrote about what I learned from One Piece’s opening episodes, 1 through 5. Those were my first steps into this wild, stretchy, loud world where a boy in a straw hat decides he’s going to become Pirate King and somehow makes that feel both ridiculous and completely serious at the same time. Now I’m moving a little further in—episodes 6–10—and even here, the show is already teaching more about **courage, community, and the cost of dreaming out loud.

Essential Spider-Man
Let me preface this by stating I fought the urge to comment on the weirdly Freudian obsession Peter Parker has with the sepulchral crone-like Aunt May. I thought it was better to be kind. (Aren't I some guy?)

Hollywood Is No Longer Human: How AI Is Rewriting the Rules of the Movies You Love
Do you remember the last time you watched a movie and thought, "that looked incredibly real"? There's a good chance what you were seeing didn't even exist. It wasn't a physical set. It wasn't a flesh-and-blood actor. It was artificial intelligence working its magic behind the scenes, and you probably didn't even notice.
