Having been, during my school years, in choir and drama club and on the academic and speech teams, Glee fires a bunch of memory cells. Growing up in small town Indiana (the show takes place in Lima, Ohio in a high school that shares its name with the
Ooh baby love, my baby love
I need you, oh how I need you
But all you do is treat me bad
Break my heart and leave me sad

Last year, we played along with American Idol by saying what songs we would sing based on the theme of the week. I thought it went over well as a bunch of other Legionnaires participated. So I'm back for another go.

I'm supposed to interview Paul Levitz about his upcoming Legion of Super-Heroes run (his third -- and the second time he's followed Jim Shooter!) for Comics Buyer's Guide. So what should I ask him?
Last week came the sad news that Ugly Betty is canceled. To add insult to injury, the episode order is cut from 22 to 20. With 10 episodes remaining to air -- and six already in the can -- at least they can build to a fitting series finale.
On Monday (4/19) I'm interviewing Andy Diggle, co-creator and writer of Vertigo's The Losers, which will premier as a major motion picture on Friday (4/23). This is for the newspaper column. Anything you folks would like
How do most of you who use Netflix Instant Play use it - over an ethernet cable or wirelessly? The reason I'm asking is that every time I try to watch something on my computer I get a message saying that my internet connection has slowed and Netflix
...made me realize that DC is getting a lot of exposure in other media now. Christopher Chance, Batman (on the Brave and the Bold cartoon), and Clark & Lois (Smallville) are on television every week...PLUS The Losers film looks a lot more appealing
