Off to San Diego!

July 22, 2008

I’m about to go pack and get ready for bed as I leave for the airport at the butt crack of dawn tomorrow.  I’m both excited and nervous, but mostly jsut looking forward to the whole thing!

If you’re interested, I will be making updates, but how and when depends on my computer access for the [...]

Checking of the “To Do” list of my life….

July 21, 2008

As I’ve been counting down to my trip this week, I’ve realized a few other things on my lifetime to do list that I’m also going to accomplish by going to San Diego:
1.  Traveling further west that Texas
2.  Seeing the Pacific Ocean
3.  Seeing the Grand Canyon (very possible from the plane from what everyone says)
4. [...]

It’s official….

I’m going to Comi-Con!

If I ever had a bucket list, going to ComiCon in San Diego at least once in my life would be on it.  Check that off mister!  It’s been in the works for a few weeks now, but I’m officially going; I’ve got my pass to the convention, got my plane tickets [...]

Not much to say….

February 13, 2008

I sat down to write a new post today and realized I had nothing to write about. With no new TV and the lack of decent movies, the typical stuff I cover is limited these days. That would explain why the site has been so heavy in video game and comic posts; outside [...]

Brand New Day: My spin on the new webs

January 11, 2008

In my opinion, it is really hard to build a complete and objective opinion on a comic series or new direction after reading only one issue. That would be similar to watching only the first 30 minutes of a movie and passing judgment on the overall movie; you’re just not taking in the overall [...]

Comics View: Spider-Man-One More Day

January 3, 2008

I received a lot of emails over the last week asking how I feel about the change in Spider-Man status quo so I figured I’d respond.  First off, I haven’t read the actual issue yet, so this won’t be  based on the actual story as much as  my feeling about what is going on overall.  [...]

The scariest - and best - book your should be reading

October 31, 2007

“In a world ruled by the dead, we are finally forced to start living.”
I discovered this book less than a year ago after a friend recommended it.  Now it is, in my opinion, one of the best horror stories I’ve ever experienced.
It started out normal enough: a man wakes up from a coma to a [...]

Possible Skrull Invasion, Film at 11

July 2, 2007

It appears that there is a possibility that Marvel is setting up it’s next big crossover as an invasion of Earth by the Skrull empire.  If that is truly the case, then my opinion is: well played House of Ideas, well played….

 I think it is a great idea in the tradition of Marvel’s past great [...]
