Invasion of the American Accents
It occurred to me yesterday ('cause, you know, sometimes I'm kinda slow) that we've got a host of non-American/non-Canadian English-speaking actors playing American charcters on American TV these days.
Off the top of my head (and just limited to show
Read more…Batman & Robin #9!
It comes out today! Anyone else excited to see how Grant wraps up his latest arc? Cleverness and questions unanswered is what I'd imagine. Also excited for Cameron Stewart's art.
Read more…Super-Friends
A couple of years ago, when “Super-Friends vs. the Legion of Doom” came out on DVD, it was billed as “season one,” but I remember watching Super-Friends when it first aired (the one with Wendy, Marvin and Wonder Dog), and I don’t remember no “Legion

With DC's Brightest Day, Marvel's Heroic Age, an Astonishing Spider-Man and Wolverine title, plus a whole lot more high profile comics on the way... what are you looking forward to? And, 'cause it always makes things more interesting, why?

Story
It's funny the way a story can reveal yourself to yourself. Because, I mean, intellectually, I know that I've never been in this guy's position - I don't know him or what's been going on with him, and if he's scared to do it, then maybe it's b

X-Men Second Coming Prepare Free Promo Thing That The Guy At My Local Gave Me Today
Meh. Some of the artwork is nice, but the story doesn't look particularly interesting or original and has Hank McCoy gotten real chubby or did he mutate again?
Read more…Thoughts While Filling out Previews
- Too many 4 dollar comics really. I've complained before I know, but unless I am really into it, I am going to pass on these.
- A preview of a comic actually halted my decision to by a comic (Turf from Image). Way too many text boxes and speech balloon
"That Guy"
You know, the guy in that movie, and in that other movie? Here he is!
Zee-Zee-Zee! Calling the Commander!
You are my go-to guy for all things DC prior to 1982, sir!
I have a 2010 calander up in my house. Each month has a different golden or silver age DC cover featured.
This month, due to Valentine's, the featured cover is Superman #120. On it, Su

I am, and I know Powerbook Pete and Lumber Jack are. Anybody here using Twitter?
Read more…Mac Mini - any opinions?
We're thinking about maybe buying a Mac Mini with our tax refund. Has anybody used one or read enough about them to have a good opinion? Your thoughts are appreciated.
