Cool Projects #17 kicks off with the debut of Punk Mambo, a mini series from Valiant Comics.
Punk Mambo #1 introduces us to Mambo, a voodoo priestess on a mission to rescue children from cannibalistic mutants in the Louisiana bayou, but ends up with a whole new set of problems and rescue missions in her own best interest.
Punk Mambo uses her street smarts, mystical powers and sass to make it in her world, though it may new be enough to get through her new issues. Overall I'm really intrigued by the plot and the script enough to continue the series, but fell even more so for Adam Gorham's art, which was exquisitely colored by Jose Villarubia.
Punk Mambo #1 dropped this week from Valiant Comics, featuring the creative duo of writer Cullen Bunn and artist Adam Gorham, who set the tone for an exciting supernatural saga. Grab issue #1 of Punk Mambo now and get ready for Punk Mambo #2 on May 29th!
Another project that caught my eye was a Kickstarter for That Monster Show.
That Monster Show is described as an "Adult Swim style show" based on a group of retro monsters being banished to sunny Florida.
Show creator Carl King brings his hilarious animated show to life using the voice talents of a pair of fan favorite cosplayers, LeAnna Vamp and Joanie Brosas among other talented voice actors.
That Monster Show is on its way to its crowd funding goal but can still use our help...with a series of contributor awards they're offering, it's hard to resist. Go check out and consider backing That Monster Show today at:

In this edition of cool projects , number 16 to be exact, I'm going to mention an upcoming service that definitely don't need the promotional help from this little website, but the more news that drops on it, the more I'm pumped for it!
I'm talking about Disney+...
The streaming service launches November 12, 2019, and is set to bring us a lot of intriguing new content to go along with an already extensive catalogue from Disney, Marvel, and the Star Wars universe.
A few projects in the news coming on Disney+ include:
The Mandalorian, which we mentioned in the Star Wars Celebration post recently. If you missed that check out that entry HERE.
The Mandalorianwill be produced by Favreau, with various directors, including Taika Waititi, which personally has me amped up.
A couple other shows debuting on Disney+ will be Wandavision, in which Paul Bettany and Elizabeth Olsen reprise their roles as Vision and Scarlett Witch.
That should be a good one, as should Falcon and Winter Soldier. Reports on the great chemistry between Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan can only equate to a great show...I mean, they were awesome together in Endgame (which I hope you've all had the pleasure of seeing by now!).
If those Cool Projects werent enough to sell Disney+, then that backlog of Disney, Marvel, and Star Wars classics should be enough.
What are your thoughts? Are going to order the streaming service in the fall? It's apparently going to be cheaper than Netflix and Hulu too! Tweet us. We wanna hear from you! Twitter.com/thestevestrout.com

One of my favorite things to share is these 'Cool Projects' that you may or may not already know about, whether it be tv, comics, movies, games, or anything "pop culture" or "nerdy".
We have some interesting stuff in this edition of Cool Projects #15, including a new superhero tv show, a new comic spinoff release from a cult favorite franchise and a great indie comic read. Check them out and enjoy.
First off... I literally just heard about this new superhero show coming out in July, and was so intrigued, that I was inspired to post immediately.
THE BOYS is based on the comic series by Garth Ennis and Derrick Robertson about a group of superheroes who abuse their power.
THE BOYS, developed by Eric Kripke (Supernatural creator), is produced by Amazon and will be streaming on Amazon Prime starting July 26th. Check out this NSFW trailer. It lools pretty wild and entertaining. This is definitely not a kids show!
Next up we have Alex Priest, a comic book mini series brought to us by indie imprint Arledge Comics.
Alex Priest is set in a universe where vampires and demons are planning a merger using magic, to take over the world. Multiple agencies are workong together to prevent the potential apocalypse...
Jenn Arledge pens the series and features the great manga influenced art in this battle of good vs. evil. I'm only 2 issues in out of the 5 part series, and I'm hooked on where the story is taking me. I can't wait to run i to the Arledge Comics crew to pick up the next issue.
You can get more info on Arledge Comics and check out other titles like The Great Witch Artemis and Future Girl at www.arledgecomics.com
I'm also planning to grab Angel #1 from Boom Studios. Angel is a spinoff of Joss Whedon's cult favorite Buffy The Vampire Slayer universe about the teenage vampire hunter protecting the town of Sunnydale from vamps.
She meets the vampire known as Angel, who becomes a love interest and ally againt evil.
Im curious to see how this comic run parallels the show, as I haven't read any of the Buffy comics. I should probably get on that, huh? Anyways, I think Angel will be worth checking out. Its a great character and created by a great comic team up of writer Bryan Hill (Detective Comics) and art by Glen Melnikov (Power Rangers) with input from Joss Whedon himself. Go get more details at boom-studios.com
Let us know what you think of these Cool Projects, and please follow and tweet us at @thestevestrout and share any interesting projects you've enjoyed or have heard about.

Another year of Star Wars Celebration has come and gone, and yet again we couldnt attend.
Don't fret though.
For those of you that haven't looked at ANY social media, and missed all the excitong announcements from the Star Wars universe, I've round up a few of the more exciting teasers from the weekends festivities...including...
New Clone Wars is coming!
I'm personally excited for the "Mandalorian" announcement. This is one series is going to stream on the coming Disney streaming service this fall.
The most important title and trailer of the year dropped! Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise Of Skywalker opens in theaters December 20, 2019! I'm looking forward to how J.J. Abrams wraps the Skywalker saga.
Something for the gamers...
