MISC. MANGA, *Time Lincoln
Here, Abe Lincoln was being targeted on the night of his assassination by none other than Joseph Stalin, here called Void Stalin. Stalin stole time-travel powers from Rasputin, and travelled back to stop Lincoln from gaining the potential from stopping his conquest of time, but he doesn’t realize that this act is what actually gives Lincoln his time abilities. Lincoln then gets help from Einstein, Ben Franklin, George Washington Carver, Amelia Earhart, and Edison to stop Stalin and his forces.
Creator Fred Perry brings in some terrific anime elements to this, like Lincoln giving Hitler a big “Shoryuken” into another dimension. Be sure to get the graphic novel for this as opposed to the comic one-shots because it’s printed in chronological order.

ANI-MOVIES, *The Great Mouse Detective
Basil is mouse that lives in Sherlock Holmes’ pad, and along with his new assistant Dr. Dawson has to help the adorable Olivia find her inventor father who had been abducted by the sinister Ratigan.
Vincent Price does a memorable performances as the Moriarty-themed Ratigan, who plans to make a robotic duplicate of the mouse queen so he can take over England. Ron Clements started his big career as a director on this, and it shows with some impressive action sequences than in most Disney films. The best are the airship chase near the end, along with the fight within Big Ben. One of the few steampunk movies the kids can enjoy.
