BornIn1142

Name: Kaarel Jakobson

Bio: An idealistic cynic, a hopeful pessimist, a stupid intellectual... Truly, BornIn1142 is a man of contradictions. Hey, is anyone actually going to read this? I'd be surprised.I'm a guy from Estonia (and I don't blame you for not knowing where that is) currently studying in Scotland. There's really not much more to say. Comics and anime are my two main interests, but I'm also an 'aspiring writer' in the same sense as half the Internet seems to be. Mostly novels/prose, but I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't loooove getting into the comics business. I'm a bit of a douchebag, as you'll notice.

    January 19, 2012 6:20 pm In fact, it's downright terrible. Selina's spine is impossibly bendy, her upper and lower body are off-kilter and her leg literally seems to do a 180 degree turn at the knee. The heck is going on there? o_O

    The Best of the Week in Covers – 01.04.2012
    January 7, 2012 8:59 am The Fatale cover is great, no doubt, but I wish the character's eyeballs were turned just SLIGHTLY more downwards. She looks somewhat inattentive/high as is.

    Mars Forever! New ‘John Carter’ (of Mars) Trailer
    December 4, 2011 12:09 pm Five minutes ago, I couldn't have cared less about John Carter of Mars and that it was getting some sort of movie. But damn, that looks cool, and the more I find out about it, the more interested I am. Considering Wall-E is one of my favorite movies ever, I cannot resist the pull of another sci-fi project from Andrew Stanton.
