There was a bunch of X-Men related news at C2E2 this weekend, so here’s an even more condensed version of what’s up at CBR. X-Force to end and relaunch. Sounds like “Wolverine’s X-Men” meets Secret Warriors. Teaser image below. The guy on the right looks clearly to be Fantomex, it’s suggested in the article that [...]

Ultimate Comics – Enemy 3 : One more issue to go and we still have no idea what’s going on. And the thing is ready to mutate? I always loved the super-rocky thing from the FF of my youth, so hopefully we’ll see that in the Ultimate U. So, while this issue doesn’t really go [...]

I’m hesitant about posting this, because it’s kind of painful… but I went to the emotional and typographical (real word, being used by me in completely the wrong way) trouble of creating it, so here it is: A post of Rachel’s got me thinking about a day I both wish I could never remember and [...]

The one I was reading… it’s in the house somewhere. IT HAS TO BE. But where? I mean, there are only so many places it can be, and it seems to not be in any of those. I can’t remember the last time I lost a book. It’s driving me crazy. I don’t want to [...]

Changes by: Jim Butcher No, Dresden does not own a cowboy hat – or any hat. Yet he’s always got one on the cover. And the “runes” on the staff apparently spell “Matrix” in katakana.

At least I think that’s what this AP dispatch is getting at. Why else would the writer say things like The result is a tax system that exempts almost half the country from paying for programs that benefit everyone, including national defense, public safety, infrastructure and education.
