Metropolis

I realize this is really later in the week than I intended to post it, but it couldn’t be helped. Over the past few weeks I been slowly consuming the first season of TRUE BLOOD on DVD, and slowly become addicted to it’s delightfully campy mix of sex and cheese. I’ve been dutifully recording the [...]

I just had about the longest July 4th weekend I’ve ever had, and I still haven’t recovered. In the words of Jonah Hex, “I feel like I been et by a wolf, and s*** off a cliff.” For those that care, and I’ll share even if you don’t, my baby boy, Holden, turned three on [...]

In losing Michael Jackson this week I was reminded, through various blogs around the Internet, of his deep lifelong love of the comic book medium. He shopped quite frequently at the comic store GOLDEN APPLE in California and over the years had a few comics actually made to tie-in with various entertainment projects he was [...]

Sorry for the lack of preamble lately, folks.  I am anticipating having to train someone at my “real” job sometime soon-ish and I wanted to try and get caught up on my reading before that happens, so my days and nights have been spent doing just that.  Honestly – my life isn’t the Quentin Tarantino [...]

Thought I would throw these reviews out on Monday to try and ride the coat tails of the CAPTAIN AMERICA 600/REBORN media train going through comic book land on this most auspi….ah. Who am I kidding?  I was just too lazy to post them over the weekend.

DOCTOR WHO CLASSICS – SERIES TWO 7 – In this issue [...]

It has long been my desire to write my reviews with one simple word that encapsulates everything about the issue in question.  One word so succinct and perfect that anyone who reads the issue in question couldn’t help to say that I totally nailed it in my review.  Unfortunately I am not quite good enough, [...]

Sorry I didn’t post any reviews last week.  I took the week off due to a massive influx of new comics.  Far too many to review! After I waded through the stack of new monthly titles, I decided to try and get caught up on that brick-like wall of new trade paperbacks that has been [...]

SarahBear reviews the latest installment of the Star Trek series.

What a crazy time these last two weeks have been.  For those of you who don’t know, last week was the 2nd Annual Lubbock Comic Book Expo.  It was a raging success thanks to the Lubbock Arts Festival being downstairs.  We had twice as many people this year, and we really couldn’t have done as [...]
