Well damn, looks like I only have a few months in which to lock myself in a heuristically sealed control room with my DVR and some Cool Ranch Doritos and catch up on Arrow! CW has announced that The Flash is going to bow on October 7! I love what […]

One of the things I absolutely love in fiction, any fiction, is artful deconstruction of the meta. It’s something that I am horrible at, mostly because I’m too terrified to really commit. And that’s the rub, if you’re going to start poking at that fourth wall, you’d better be prepared […]

One of my early jobs out of college, I found myself with an entire month and nothing to do. Lucky for me, I had the internet and I’d just stumbled across a cache of digital comics that included the entire original run of Transformers, all 80 issues! As I pored […]

So do you think you got the answer right to today’s Guess Who? I posted this on Twitter and Facebook this morning: And here’s the answer: Did you guess Archangel? I would have taken Angel as well, since he’s still blue with metal wings (occasionally) in modern comics and goes by that. Before I […]
