Hello out there,
Another day another newsletter post.
Here's another thing you should know about me. Why Capricorn Media Products? One thing is that it’s just an in name company to display my work similar to Robert Kirkman’s Skybound and Mark Millar’s Millarworld. Capricorn is my astrological sign(I was born on December 27th). The Media and Products part seems on the surface iffy as far as explaining; the Media in the name is not just comics, but I’ll just concertrate on that for now; if anything I create falls on hollywood’s door, it is what it is and I’ll try to get involve in some way. The Products in it is just things besides art on paper and a canvas. Maybe having my work on clothes, stickers, etc.

Things I’m a fan of and why
One of the oldest things I’m into is pop culture and among that is Comic Books. I’ve been reading and collecting comics since I think 1978 or 1979 into 1980 or so. An unique marriage between art and storytelling displayed in these books called pamplets nowadays. My entry drug into comic books is Saturday Morning cartoon adaptations of Marvel and DC characters, you should know what I’m talking about at this point. Those shows popped up during weekday mornings and afternoons as well. My first set of comics I’ve brought were a Marvel Two in One with the Thing teaming up with Spider-Woman I believe (issue 85 in fact), a issue of Ghost Rider with him riding on a roller coster rail I believe, and other books that now espaces me.
I grew up buying and reading these books and read on the goings on in the industry over the years. Obtaining news magazines like The Comic Buyer’s Guide, Wizard Magazine, etc.
I love animation as well. Whatever you’re a fan of as far as animation, I’ve might have seen it as one form of another.
Music is what I listen to as well; I’m an open door on most music genres and create playlists on Spotify every chance I get to diversify my listening habits and not be ignorant to what’s going on music wise. That I’ll get into down the road. Podcasts is what I listen as well. I listen to my podcasts on either Spotify or Google Podcasts and diversify my ears on majoy topics of the day and listen to podcasts on the pop culture scene as far as on comics, movies, music, etc.
Speaking on movies, that’s something I’ve entertaining myself going to since I was a kid. One of the first memories of going to the movies was going to see the first Superman movie in Washington Heights back in the day with my mom and Seeing a screening of Star Wars with my dad and his sons back then as well. I’m a fan of action, comedy, drama, some historical dramas too, as well as what I call event movies; movies that are popular franchises usually created by Hollywood ever year or so. Another topic for another time.
Next time, what I’m working on and more on what I’m into,
