(Note: This is actually something I've posted before. I'm just moving it out here to get it out where it is more immediately visible. It'll probably take a few days for me to re-post it all.)
What I will be attempting is to present a possible timeli

Read more…I haven't done a new timeline in awhile, so I thought I'd try one based on Japanese popular culture as I have known it. Later, I intend to follow up with an overall history of the timeline, to give sense of what its history would be like.

Read more…Gotta have someone for these folks to fight. I'm going to try and see how many I can come up with without looking any up. Once I reach that point, I'll finish out the list using the standard references.
The List of 1,000 Villains
These are all the manga I currently own. I've read several others, but no longer have them.
Thought I'd try re-posting my latest update of this. There's more than a few characters on the list that probably either stretch or exceed your definition of a "super-hero". I've tried to clear out most of the most egregious ones, but there's a few I
Read more…I've got rather alot of graphic novels, most of which sit on my bookshelves or in boxes in my closets from one year to the next, never being looked at. So, I've decided to go through them all, re-reading each one and deciding whether to keep it or to
Read more…Thought it would be fun to re-watch these, since I finally picked up a copy of Star Trek - Into Darkness from the cheapie bin, which means I now have copies of all of them.
So, on into space, the filmic frontier...
Read more…I saw this book over in the Barnes & Noble's over by the King Kullen, and decided to try my hand at producing such a list myself. A few notes:
I've been re-watching this, so I thought I'd try and do a timeline for it. The things in parentheses are the episode titles that I based the references on.
17 years before the Big Bang: The Nibblonians come into existence. ("The Day the Earth Stood
Read more…I remember reading somewhere the opinion that in order to get the most out of the story of the Star Wars movies, one should watch them in the following order:
This is an odd bit of Kirby- one that I remembered reading and enjoying back in the day, so when it was recently released and collected, I picked it up. Let's see what I can find to say about this.
I'll note that it's inked by Mike Royer, since I k

As the cover says: "4/5 new! All different!" The cover picture is amusing - it's a head shot of Robotman with the other members reflected inhis face, and him

Any way, in typical Baro

DC Versus Marvel Comics #1 (1996): "Round One"

Read more…I've always been a big fan of Monty Python's Flying Circus, but given the nature of the show, it struck me as absurd to try to create a "timeline". Naturally, I am going to try to do so. As an added "bonus", I will also be posting my trademark Baroni
Read more…Yeah, I know, another thing that isn't a "timeline" as such, although it will involve time travel of sorts, back to the wild and woolly days of 1992, when dinosaurs walked the Earth. I hadn't read the Superman comics much for years when this story w
