X-Men:Second Coming Chapter 11 is here, and Zeb Wells’ final New Mutants issue of the cross over was rock solid. It’s a book that made it clearer than ever how much I’m going to miss this when it’s over.

REVIEW: Brightest Day #3

Posted by under *like, Comics | Leave a Comment |

DC Comics‘ Brightest Day #4 is in stores this week. That makes this as good a time as any to share some thoughts on issue #3.

PTB: The cover really caught my attention on this one. At first, I thought they were the resurrected characters, but upon thinking about it that’s clearly not the case.

Philadelphia Comic Con: Kaiju Big Battel

Kaiju Big Battel ranks as one of the most absurd events I’ve ever attended, and I love it. I don’t know a lot about it, but it makes sense that I would enjoy it as it combines American professional wrestling with Japanese monster movies. It’s not shy about being over the top and if that description appeals to you on any level you should absolutely check it out. Read more of this article »

Philadelphia Comic Con: A Very Brady Post

Posted by under *like, Miscellany | Join The Discussion |

I wasn’t going to post my “celebrity review” from the Philadelphia Comic Con by Wizard until later in the week.  I had a few more things I wanted to write up first, but then KevinMLD tried to steal my thunder and post about this very topic.  Jerk 😉

There weren’t many names on the list of celebrities scheduled to appear that I had ever heard before, let alone was interested in.  Having watched both America’s Next Top Model AND My Fair Brady, it seemed appropriate that the celebrity interview I requested was Adrianne Curry. We did not end up not having a formal interview, and I am ok with that.  Just a quick chat was enough. Read more of this article »
