in the future - u will be able to do some more stuff here,,,!! like pat catgirl- i mean um yeah... for now u can only see others's posts :c
Update: Sorry for my lack of communication, but my family comes first and I paused everything. I will return, but when is up in the air. I do all this editing and storytelling as a fun hobby. The site and this channel has been an absolute blast to play around and work on my editing style. I know this may not please some, just remember…it’s all free and all for fun. I work a full time job and do this stuff whenever I have downtime. I don’t get paid to do the channel, or the site. I actually invest into the site every year, which oddly seems counterproductive 😂 but it’s never been about making money for me. Just wanted to showcase people’s talents while trying to figure out my own.
Legion/Lord of Madness are coming, just delayed. My computer has been given to a family for the time being.
Apologies again, but thank you for your understanding. I will do my best to get to everyone’s comments asap. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

I bring unfortunate news in regards to Chapter VII. After many restless nights, I'm still not happy with the final version, and am needing more time with this final Act of the episode. I apologize for how frustrating it is on your end, especially with these constant delays, but I promise it's not my intention to upset anyone. I will deliver, when I feel the quality is there.
As stated previously, this one chapter will feel like a 'full circle' kind of episode, told in multiple Acts. The runtime is long, but I'm hopeful the pacing moves the story along without much filler/drag. I will upload an announcement video when the chapter is finally up on the site. Thank you for your insane patience.

MINOR DELAY: Chapter VII is scheduled for Monday, March 25. First 2 hours are good to go, but I would like a little more time with the second half of the episode. Thank you for your understanding! Will try and get a clip or two up this weekend. Apologies, everyone, but thank you for keeping patient :) Enjoy the rest of your day!!

It’s been incredibly difficult to end this story, I must say. When I was originally editing the story for Superman: Last Son, the story of Legion was not going to be apart of what I was doing with Bale, Routh, and the DC story I started off telling.
Legion was going to be a complete remake from its predecessor, which was a 2-part film narrative. Once I got into the final act of editing Last Son, everything naturally was flowing into an idea that would end up spanning across years for this moment to arrive: Tell a unique, original DC story that explores a fresh perspective on the entire DC myth/lore, create a new character named Theseus with his own arc, all while adding a new color grade and music throughout.
Batman: Gotham’s Knight started this amazing odyssey, and it’s incredible to think about how long ago this project was. I am forever humbled for the love, the support, the kindness, and everything in between with all of you who got on the ship and set sail with me to tell this weird DC story. Thank you for riding the waves with me, even through some thunderstorms.
I wanted every single Chapter of Legion to feel different, yet the same tonally throughout. When I knew I was going to destroy Bale’s universe, I wanted to make you feel. I didn’t care if you were mad, sad, or oddly happy. I just wanted you to feel something. From there, it was now the challenge to navigate a way to create not just a new universe surrounding Ben Affleck’s Batman, but build hope within the story, where I used Clark Kent/Superman as the heart, the foundation for why heroes of all around the world, not just superheroes, FIGHT to protect their home.
When Chapter VI came along, where I could play with the multi-verse aspect of the story, is where things are really taking off for Chapter VII. When Barry finds Thomas Wayne, instead of Bruce, in another universe (played by Michael Keaton), I give you subtle hints that this universe isn’t just another random timeline. This is the original, Christian Bale timeline; but altered from what appears to be a butterfly effect where Bale was murdered as a child, and Thomas became Batman.
With all of that said…
I want Chapter VII to feel not just as an ending, but an event that’s been built up since Superman: Last Son. I really do want this Chapter to feel like a novel come to life, as I hope to achieve that ‘Return of the King’ conclusion.
Today, starting at 4pm CST (Central Time), I will be Live Streaming a little over 60 minutes of Chapter VII. Hope to see you there, and if not that’s okay! Look forward to Chapter VII coming later this month.
Thank you again, everyone! Without you, this story wouldn’t be what it is. Without you, I wouldn’t have been able to grow and learn. Thank you for helping me along the way!
When is the Live Stream: 4pm CST (Central Time U.S.)

Hey, Everyone! So I wanted to share a 60 Minute Preview of Chapter VII, but some content ended up getting blocked worldwide. With that said, where there's a will, there's a way...I decided to create a KICK account, and I'll be streaming LIVE, the first official 60 minutes of Chapter VII.
When: MARCH 10 starting @ 4pm CST (Central Time).
Where: kick.com/firemerk
Thanks so much!

My family recently had a tragic loss, and I wanted to take the time to thank those who have poured their support over the past week. Thank you so much! With that said, I'm excited to share the final trailer to Legion. You can watch the final trailer NOW on the channel. Check out the screenshot below to see the work that goes into creating a 2 min trailer.
What to know about Chapter VII:
-Chapter VII serves as a conclusion to the Legion story, that all started with Batman: Gotham's Knight. The DC Fire Saga will continue with a brand new story, coming in 2025-2026.
-This final chapter will absolutely have that 'Return of the King' feel.
-To explain time-traveling in Legion: If Barry stays in his own timeline, and travels to the past...he creates what's called a Butterfly Effect; where he isn't in another universe, but his own timeline will slightly change. In Chapter VI, Barry gets thrown out of his timeline, into the ORIGINAL timeline of Legion with Bale. But, that particular universe has now changed, to where Bruce (Christian Bale) was murdered, instead of Bruce's parents. Thomas Wayne (Michael Keaton) would carry the Batman legacy.
-Superman: Last Son Ultimate Edition is coming later this year. More details to come in August.
-It's been an absolute ride to bring this project to life, especially with bringing in some of the more recently made DC films, like The Flash. When you have this initial idea and start a project to where something comes along and it makes you pivot because of what you're given, that's where you get to really flex those creative juices. I truly feel everything happens for a reason, and I hope you all enjoy this ending.
-I want to personally thank certain creators: Dayroar, Skywalker123, and JXEditor. Consistently throwing ideas my way to give me more to work with. I cannot thank you all enough. They are not the only ones who have had ideas, and I welcome all. I always listen to feedback, ideas, etc. Even if I end up not using something, if it sounds enticing enough...I'll at least give it a shot and see what can fit inside this odd little DC Universe.
Again, thank you for the love and support with this project. It's insane that it's been a story told over the course of a few years (wasn't completely intentional), and it's bittersweet. Thank you for enjoying the story, thank you for watching, and I promise...the soundtracks are coming haha

Thank you to those who voted in the recent poll. With that said, here's a first look into Chapter III for Exodus, coming back this summer.

2023 has come and gone, and 2024 looks like a crazy good time. I am asking you all to please voice which project you would like for me to release AFTER Star Wars: The Lord of Madness. Whenever you have time, please cast your vote below. Thank you all for the continued support. Since the site launched in 2017 (Holy Hell...going into 7 years!), you all have poured nothing but love my way and I am completely humbled. Thank you for enjoying the stories, and here's to a brand New Year!!

Merry Christmas, Everyone! I bring some presents for you all to hopefully enjoy. Before that, let me just say that I am incredibly humbled with everyone's support with the DC Fire Saga. This journey has been such a fun 'effin ride, and your love/support is overwhelming. I don't want to write a novel, but there's been quite a few people asking/wanting the DC stuff to continue, once we wrap this Legion story up. I ended up having so much fun with Chapter VI (maybe too much fun), that I will be continuing with another season. BUT, I have to pivot. Chapter VI became waaay too massive, and the pacing did not work.
So, Chapter VII is being completely reworked and will be releasing in February. I know this may disappoint some, but I hope the announcement of the DC Fire Saga continuing can make up for it. Chapter VI has a runtime of 2hr19min. Warning: bloody, grisly images, violence, and language throughout
I will also be doing commentary for Chapter VI. Will try and get that up on YouTube Sunday, Dec. 31.
With all that out of the way, Chapter V & VI are now available to binge on the site. Again, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. Please stay safe, and enjoy your time with family/friends. I really hope you enjoy Chapter VI, and I cannot wait to share more details with DC once we arrive with Chapter VII, called 'Heroes.' Take care!
