Michael Chiklis

Fans of The Shield protagonist anti-hero Vic Mackey might have hoped that he would perhaps die a heroic death making right for his bad acts over the years, or some such sentimental BS. Instead, he remained free by in the most fundamental way betraying his last remaining partner, the ever loyal Ronnie Gardocki. Vic took an immunity deal, and fed them Ronnie. This is their final scene where he's being arrested - and confronts Vic as they're dragging him off. You can see even in the way he's holding his hands in this image how lame his excuses are. What Vic did here is far worse than the snitching that he killed Terri Crowley for in the infamous pilot.

Barger's Boutique is proud to present our Vic Mackey & The Shield Memorial Button Collection. This comes with these twelve images capturing classic characters and moments from the 88 episodes of the greatest cop show ever put on a television, starring Michael Chiklis as Vic Mackey in the FX drama The Shield. I apologize that the colors are pretty burnt in the first image, but they're burnt by the flare of the blast of the shot with which Vic Mackey murdered the snitch Terry Crowley in the pilot, which flash also burned the colors of the whole seven seasons of the series. See image two. But sometimes The Strike Team was less interesting than other cops in the office, particularly psychology expert Dutch Wagenbach - who carries his own psychological problems. Anyway, you can get this twelve images either as a set of 2 1/4" pinback buttons or 3" refrigerator magnets.

The 88 episodes of the recently concluded FX cop show The Shield is perhaps the greatest tv drama series ever. Seven seasons came out of this moment in the pilot episode when the main protaganist Vic Mackey assassinates a brother officer whom he discovered had been sent to him undercover as a snitch.

Marvel Comics' first family of superherodom, the Fantastic Four, hits the big screen in a light-hearted and funny adventure. It begins when down-on-his-luck genius Reed Richards (Ioan Gruffudd, Horatio Hornblower) has to enlist the financial and intellectual help from former schoolmate and rival Victor Von Doom (Julian McMahon, Nip/Tuck) in order to pursue outer-space research into human DNA. Also on the trip are Reed's best friend, Ben Grimm (Michael Chiklis, The Shield); his former lover, Sue Storm (Jessica Alba, Dark Angel, Sin City), who's now Doom's employee and love interest; and her hotshot-pilot brother, Johnny Storm (Chris Evans, Cellular). Things don't go as planned, of course, and the quartet becomes blessed--or is it cursed?--with superhuman powers: flexibility, brute strength, invisibility and projecting force fields, and bursting into flame. Meanwhile, Doom himself is undergoing a transformation. Among the many entries in the comic-book-movie frenzy, Fantastic Four is refreshing because it doesn't take itself too seriously. Characterization isn't too deep, and the action is a bit sparse until the final reel (like most "first" superhero movies, it has to go through the "how did we get these powers and what we will do with them" churn). But it's a good-looking cast, and original comic-book cocreator Stan Lee makes his most significant Marvel-movie cameo yet, in a speaking role as the FF's steadfast postal carrier, Willie Lumpkin. Newcomers to superhero movies might find the idea of a family with flexibility, strength, invisibility, and force fields a retread of The Incredibles, but Pixar's animated film was very much a tribute to the FF and other heroes of the last 40 years. The irony is that while Fantastic Four is an enjoyable B-grade movie, it's the tribute, The Incredibles, that turned out to be a film for the ages. --David Horiuchi The Fantastic Four at Amazon.com Comics and Graphic Novels Disney animated series The classic comic book Movie tie-in graphic novel The Xbox game Fantastic Four Soundtrack The Fantastic Cast Jessica Alba as Sue Storm Michael Chiklis as The Thing Ioan Gruffudd as Reed Richards Chris Evans as Johnny Storm Stills from Fantastic Four (click for larger images)
