The #1 Sylvester Stallone Fan Site in the World!
On October 16, 2012, the Las Vegas Sun posted Sylvester Stallone’s Rambo V Slated to Shoot in Las Vegas. Sounds like a long shot to me, but Vegas is known for them. – Craig
Alexis Ziritt makes his first appearance in my Stallone Theme Sketch Collection. Alexis is the co-founder of Fistful Apparel and the indie comics co-op Calavera Comics. When I saw that Alexis was taking sketch card commissions, I decided to get on board for a couple. I asked Alexis to pick two from Jack Carter, John Rambo and Cobra. Alexis liked the theme and decided to do all three.
You can see more of Alexis’ art here.
The announcement of a new Rambo game is making waves across the net:
Thanks to SZoner, Silver for additional info! – Craig
Dave Wachter returns this week with his take on Sly from Rambo. I met Dave three years ago and became an instant fan. How can you not like a great guy who is a terrific artist? You can see more of Dave’s art at his site. – Craig
One of the best things about creating and running the StalloneZone is the people I “meet” because of it. This week I received an e-mail from one of my all-time favorite authors, David Morrell. Mr. Morrell is probably best known to fans here for creating Rambo in his novel First Blood. [Mr. Morrell has written over 30 books in a wide range of genres and all are excellent.]
Mr. Morrell wants Stallone fans to know that his newly designed website has a Rambo page and that he recently finished up revisions of his novelizations of Rambo, First Blood Part II and Rambo III [both of which will contain lengthy introductions].
Check out Mr. Morrell’s site and if your interested in some of his other novels, pick any of them because you can not go wrong!
This week we have Michael Duron and his take on Sly as Rambo. Michael is from Florida and U met him at OrlandoCon where he was nice enough to fit me in on his sketch list. You can see more of Michael’s art at his site.
The Rambo drawing above is by the very talented Eli Minaya. I met Eli at this year’s MegaCon. I’d never seen Eli’s art before, but decided on the spot to see about getting a con sketch from him. Eli was up for it and Rambo seemed the natural choice. As you can see from the piece above, it was.
You can see more of Eli’s art at his site.
This is my second Mitch Byrd sketch. You can see the first here. It’s rare to see Mitch at conventions but I’ve been lucky enough to meet up with him at MegaCon a couple of times. When Mitch makes an appearance, I try to get on his list. Look at his art and you can see why.
On March 21, 2012, FansShare posted Sylvester Stallone Compares Rambo and Rocky.
Over at IFC, they decided to post a piece “in honor of ‘John Carter,’ ten awesome dude movies with dude’s names for titles. Sly was the only actor to make the list twice [for “Rocky” and “Rambo”]. Here are some tidbits…
