The End is Nigh
Planetary #27 to ship in October. What other signs of the apocalypse can we expect to see?
Read more…Who are the most creative creators?
Going back to my ongoing plea that today's comic creators spend less time on flatlining 'events' and more on creating new characters and concepts, who are the writers and artists looking to the future rather than constantly raiding the past? I don't
Read more…Who's Kitty referring to?
I love Wolverine: First Class because it takes me back to the tail end of "my" era of the X-Men. Of course this also means I'm hypersensitive to errors that creep in. For instance, in #15 as Kitty harangues Logan incessantly, one of the things she sa
Read more…Sorry! Group flub...
I want first to apologize...when I created some of the groups (Spidey, Doctor Who, Disney, Batman, and Horror/Mystery), I accidently set the membership specs so that you HAD to be a member to see the stuff being posted in each group. There wasn't an
Read more…Those Kents Sure are Super!
So reading the review (or at least the comments) of Superman # whatever-the-current-issue-is, and Cap's thoughts about Mon-El taking on the name Jonathan Kent, I just can't help but wonder... Conner Kent, Kara Kent, Jonathan Kent... It's a nice sent
Read more…Drag Me to Hell
This is not a request. This is, however, the title of the new Sam Raimi film. I typically don't like to watch a lot of films dealing with hell and demons and whatnot but this is Sam Raimi doing horror, how could I pass it up? This is a fun, scary mo
Read more…Detective Comics 853 topped the charts in April - thoughts?
Possibly for the first time in the 70 plus years of its existence, Detective Comics was the best selling comic in April. Pretty cool, but not shocking, after all, it was the conclusion of Neil Gaiman's "Whatever Happened to the Caped Crusader?" and t
Read more…What was the artistic purpose of the lines on the Human Torch(es)?
Back in the day, when ever the original Human Torch or Johnny Storm would flame on, they were always draw with dozens of straight lines across their forms. That particular aspect of their appearances has long since been retired, but I've always wonde
Read more…Things That Made You Laugh Out Loud
I was watching my Superstars of the 90's DVD this morning, and they showed the scene where Vince McMahon was in a hospital bed and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin came in and bashed him on the head with a bedpan, and I just about collapsed into hysterics.

Read more…Question about Groups
I'm thinking about starting a Librarians group. But I see there's a bunch of settings that have to be made at the beginning, and can't be modified later. So how have the other groups been set up?
Read more…What is the point of Friending people?
What does it do for me or the friend? Can't we "see" one another already? Without knowing what it does, it seems like a popularity contest, which I see as "bad form" for a board like this.
Read more…Blog questions
This is a continuation of a conversation I was having with Rich in the chat room. I have another blog question. If someone wanted to post a blog, which moderator would we submit our article to? Or is the blog set up that if a non-mod posts something
Read more…Viewing discussions I've contributed to
Is there any way to do this so that a list of the conversations I have pitched in to will show up? I can only see the 'View my discussions' option, which is only for discussions I've started. Being a bit of a layabout, I don't start many discussions
