Ok, I guess and hope that many of you already know the Black Scorpion TV show…. and since I didn’t cover the show with enough posts in the past…I wanna change that now.
The show is in my Hall of Fame and if you are into masked women, this TV show is an absolute MUST have!
A little extract from my post in the Hall of Fame (more info on the show can be found there):
I remember how I stumbled upon this show in the early 2000s.
This show was never shown here, but at some point, I read about the show and saw some pictures.
I immediately bought the DVD box set in the US and it took a while to get the Season box set to arrive here.
I also had to buy a DVD player that could handle region 1 DVDs. It was a pretty expensive endeavor, but damn, it was worth it BIG time! 
I watched one episode every evening until I have seen all 22 episodes.
And that was a great thrill ride every night!
…
Ok, enough introduction….let’s start with one of the best episodes.
Here are the highlights of episode 1!

[Watch the video before you continue!]
It’s Steve’s first encounter with Black Scorpion! This starts his obsession with catching the Black Scorpion. He was transferred to this police department to catch her…. and I envy him big time! What a fantastic job! He gets paid to chase after such a stunning masked vigilante…oh man!
The ending of the episode with Firearm is so awesome! I love how he blackmails her to unmask herself….such a great move, and he really enjoys it 😉
One of the rare villains who actually wants to know who is under the mask of a heroine. And her reaction to it is well done and played as well!
Plus it’s a great bonus that he recognizes Darcy…and again, I love how he is enjoying the whole situation.
A good move that she quickly puts the mask back in place as soon she gets the chance.
In the end, Firearm has to die….after all, he had seen her face, so it was the most logical choice from the writers to get him killed.
It was the first episode if a villain like him would found out about her secret identity and would be able to tell everyone…it would be a short TV show.
Damn, I would give for a Blu-ray box for this TV show!!! Or a (not so cheesy) remake with better action scenes… #dream
Here is the IMDB link to the episode:

I edited all pages on the Hall of Fame section and updated some of them. Now you will find much fewer errors on these pages.
I really should have got this Grammarly browser extension much earlier….
I also added entry number 14 to it.
So, feel welcome to check it out!

I’m a big fan of the Birds of Prey TV-show. Why? Well, not because the show itself, that was ok, but not really good.
It was 99% because of the batgirl episode they made. Dina Meyer in that costume….WOW! That was (is) something!
Until now it is my favorite hero-costume (in TV/cinema). It just looks awesome… Her mask isn’t bad but would have needed some improvements for my taste.
A chin strap and a little more mask material.
Now we have the new Batgirl movie coming up….I hope they will make a similar costume 🙂
A few months back I found that magazine cover and decided to get a copy of it. It wasn’t easy to get that issue but I found it in the UK.
This morning I thought that some of you would like to see the pictures and the text regarding Birds of Prey. So here they are! Enjoy!

Well, I guess their predication that the show will be a big success….. failed a little 😉
Your opinion?
–
One scene was still missing to cover the legendary episode completely!
Lady Shiva unmasked Batgirl and discovered her secret identity. Now she is after a friend of Batgirl…. and finds more resistance than she expects…

And here is the video:

Really good scene, until the last seconds of the fight 🙁
That mask needed to be ripped off…. 😉

Check out Birds of Prey in the Hall of Fame!
(more videos can be found there)
Another post! Why? To celebrate the famous Black Scorpion series!
On the Black Scorpion series DVD set is a strange slide show with a length of over 40 minutes! Well some pictures are shown again and again, but there is plenty material that most of you, even if you watched the whole show, haven’t seen!
I took the best pictures of Black Scorpion and Darcy Walker!

And here is the whole gigantic gallery, 44 pictures:

Great material, or?
–
Hall of fame updated with a Black Scorpion entry!
Check it out!
So, as promised, the famous highlight of Birds of Prey! In a second fight it’s Batgirl VS Lady Shiva again!
Most of you know how it ends 😉

Hall of Fame updated!

What do you think of this scene?
(Another video from this episode will follow the next weeks)
I feel ashamed that I haven’t posted about this one before. For me it’s absolutely “Hall of Fame” material, the most of you know this one already I guess (if not……something went wrong 😉 ).
So let’s enjoy!
Batgirl confronts Lady Shiva, which (of course) ends in a fight!
