Excited for NONPLAYER #2? About that…
October 4, 2011 11:53 am Jesusgodalmighty! That is a vicious break! I hope he heals quickly and best of luck to him. Nonplayer #1 was amazing, and I can't wait to read the rest of it.

Zen and the Art of Comic Book Reboots
September 19, 2011 12:48 pm Well said. It's true, I am still bitter about the first round of alterations Lucas made. In MY trilogy, Han shot first, the only entertainment at Jabba's palace were dancing Twi'leks (and whatever the six boob lady was) and Rancor fights, and Ghost Vader was an old man, not Hayden Christensen. But the thing that really gets my goat isn't the changes they made, it's the marketing of the Blu-Rays. The only way to get the full cache of bonus features and behind the scenes footage is to buy all 6 movies? Eff that. And then to further smack fans of the original trilogy in the face, the box art is Jake Lloyd taking a pensive stroll through the desert? Eff. That.

The iFanboy Letter Column – 09.16.2011
September 16, 2011 3:46 pm My best friend reads through them as quickly as possible, just glancing at the artwork enough to know what's going on, but not to actually appreciate it. There have been times when we've been simultaneously reading separate copies of the same issue and he puts his down and says "What, you aren't done yet?"
My best friend's an asshole by the way.

The Best of the Week in Panels – 09.14.2011
September 15, 2011 4:40 pm Is anyone else as creeped out as I am by how young Buffy looks in that page? I don't read Buffy, but the proportions seem a little childish. I get a real Toddlers and Tiaras vibe off of that.

SPECULATION: DC Relaunch Paving Way to Crossover with Marvel Comics?
September 14, 2011 8:24 am I think the publishing arms of both companies are independent *enough* to pull it off, but you definitely won't see merchandise attached to it if it happens.

My Digital Comics Dilemma
September 13, 2011 1:06 pm I am 100% with you on everything here Mike. There is certainly stuff that I won't stop buying in paper for as long as they're printing them (I'll keep my X-Men collection going, why stop when you already have 435 issues of Uncanny and every issue of Adjectiveless/New/Legacy), but now that issue numbers are essentially meaningless, I am more than willing to switch over to digital.
