re: Dark X-Men : The Beginning 3: Once upon a time, a great creative team made Jean Grey interesting as the Phoenix, then killed her, ending that arc wonderfully. Then Marvel thought it would be fun to do again, and again, and again. Each time it is less interesting, and more likely to make me [...]

…since I’ve been in the beta for a few weeks (I got in on via one of the random website sign-up competitions thing, I think around the 5th) and beta is winding down today – it may already be over. Unfortunately, I didn’t think to take any badass action screenshots to show off , so [...]

to make music with, in order to make music that interests me. Ok, this is not entirely true – I did like A.M., which was produced in between Jays (post-Farrar/Uncle Tupelo, pre-Bennett). Speaking of, I think A.M. bears a decent amount in common with the current release (Wilco (the album)) – both seem to be, [...]

Titans 16: The most superfluous DC book at the moment? Maybe. Doing nothing other than showing that “you can never grow up” in the DCU, here’s a team full of heroes that should either still be Teen Titans, or should have moved up to a Justice League franchise of some sort by now. Spider-Man 602: [...]

This came around? I don’t really, but I remember that the guitar part was fairly simple and I could almost play it passably. How strange that they are what they are now, and that they spawned SO many (poor) imitators. This wasn’t the first single…in fact it was the last, but for some reason it’s [...]

So, today was the first time a person who wasn’t half me and half someone I lived with has cut my hair in oh…I don’t know, since 7th grade. Why? Because my cutter broke, and I haven’t gotten around to getting a new one yet – I’ve been having horrible luck with the cheap ones, [...]

Orange juice was “on sale” for $2.69. Regular price was $2.75. After 8 years of 9.99% fixed rate on my AMEX, no missed payments, extremely responsible CC usage, they upped my rate to ~15% VARIABLE. Which means “You will be fucked in VARIABLE ways.” Which means I’ll be paying that off and closing it down [...]

X-Force 1 7: I’m debating putting this title back on my pull list. It’s a tough call. I mean, it’s basically Academy X->New X-Men->X-Force as far as the writers plots go, and the big Selene thing is coming up (which will be when everyone else that wasn’t just resurrected IS I suspect), but eh, I [...]
