Indie films-games and something anything else inbetween! At IndyFilm Oneblaze we try to highlight Indy creative projects.

So lets jump into it. Boom Tag X is a comic, an animated series and also a game being created by the very stylish Artist/Animator Shawna Mills aka Lazymills. Currently, Lazy mills and her team have a kickstarter to hell them get a sizzle pilot out to possibly get the series funded, check out her work and if possible support this project. I have supported 16 kickstarter projects thus far one of them was her book project and she delivered on that book. On another note by no means is Ms Mills a lazy artist even though her online tag is LAzymills she has shown some amazing skill with the pen and has proven herself numerous times with her output and dedication to the craft. She has worked for numerous studios loaning her amazing visual finesse. Like a hawk I have observed her skill blossom into something beyond amazing her body of work is so consistent and being a fellow artist I have to always give her a shout out when I see her working on her own creator-owned merchandise.
So if you can give her project a look and some love.

So where do I start with this crazy series that dropped on netflix a few days ago. I never heard of the comic but I will have to check it put when I have time, so let me jump into this. The umbrella Academy is a show about super power children all born on the same day at the time to several women. There is another major detail I am leaving out, actually there will be alot of major details I will refrain from stating that’s for you to watch and be just as surprised as I was.

As I was stating this series is about children with powers that grew up to be super heroes and possibly villains who were raised by a very strange old man, a robot and a talk chimp, yes I said a talking chimp. The series takes us through a puzzle which the main cast are trying to solve and move on with their lives.

As the series depict it is extremely difficult living life with super powers and as normal individual and sometimes those power come with added responsibilities of usage, simply don’t abuse such said powers which we heard time and time again in many power based series and comics. The series has many highs and some lows and some what the hell moments but I felt entirely entertained through out the Ten plus episodes. The conclusion was also a what the hell did I just see and hopefully if and when they return it is with a bang.

Check out this interestingly weird series on netflix as they seem to always have the weird on standby.
