I’m sure we talked about a sort of 70’s era ‘Blaxploitation’ image of the Doctor - obviously in the most positive sense of the world for those that are not aware of such an underground diverse genre of cinema back in the day. :)

69. Buck Wild a.k.a. Rufus Wild. Milestone and McDuffie's funny parody of Luke Cage and a commentary on the depiction of black superheroes as a whole. His brain is frozen in '72 so he talks like a blaxploitation character and filled in for Icon for a while, growing into his own.

Films I watched today:

BLUE VELVET (1986) [One of David Lynch's masterpieces. Personally, I'm not a huge fan.]

THE CANDY TANGERINE MAN (1975) [Can blaxploitation protagonists... not use homophobic slurs?]

AVALANCHE (1978) [Not great, but it gave me my favourite MST3K episode.]
