Monday News: Battle of the frustrating concepts
NYCC was this weekend and a surprisingly large amount of stuff happened, most of which finding details on is quite frustrating. – Krypto splits difference between two extremes of DC fans, no one happy as a result So apparently that funky skeleton we see briefly in Action Comics #2 is actually meant to be Krypto, … Continue reading
Monday News: Backpedaling under Metal Gear Rex
Another week, another round of me filling in the gaps here with some news between the terrible agony of my lack of voice. – Andy Kubert to draw Action Comics #5 and 6, I hope he brings the A-game he left at home for Flashpoint Rags Morales is taking a brief respite from the book, … Continue reading
The ‘New 52’: Demon Knights, Wonder Woman and Green Lantern
About a month ago, I decided to pick up Demon Knights on a whim; I figured it couldn’t hurt to pick up the weirdness of a fantasy book set in an established comic universe. I’m not a huge fan of Etrigan or Madame Xanadu but this book was a much better intro to them … Continue reading
Monday News: Super happy driving fun time
I know everyone has their own tasks to solve on any given day and while I try to sympathize with that. But, bald man with squarish glasses driving a tan BMW 335i with the license plate 684 TEG: you are a total dick. When it’s raining outside and you’re stopped at a traffic light on … Continue reading

The ‘New 52’: Justice League International, Stormwatch and Action Comics
The new 52 actually gets going this week and I guess things are working in DC’s favor because even my embittered self has already been sucked into buying more titles than I was originally planning. Despite my dislike of Justice League last week, I plan on getting at least one title per week for the … Continue reading
Monday News: Honesty matters
You know what I like? Alliterative adjectives applied to first names. Like “Homeless” Harry Strickland from A Dance with Dragons. Anyway, here’s some news – Apparently Mars needs Moms didn’t completely kill Robert Zemeckis’ career as he’s already casting his next film. Flight is going to star Denzel Washington and seems to be a darker … Continue reading
Monday News: Ancient Spirits of Fanmail
Hey it’s Labor Day and you know what that means: a day off! Too bad it’s a day off I had anyway but whatever. Maybe there’s a decent sale or something going on. Time for news though! – Juno Temple is apparently Holly Robinson. Maybe. Unless she’s not. I hope you guys are ready for … Continue reading
Review: ‘Apollo 18’
If you read my review of Don’t be afraid of the Dark you probably understood that I’m not a big fan of films in the vein of Paranormal Activity. I think they’re lazy efforts at horror movies, stringing together a series of cheap jump scares while hiding behind the shield of having low budgets and … Continue reading
