Trailer: ‘Thor: The Dark World’
April 23, 2013 8:09 am This looks great! They seem to have figured out how to set the story in a space that looks ancient and mysterious instead of silly and fanciful. Reminds me of Curse of the Golden Flower.

5 Awesome Book to Graphic Novel Adaptations
January 25, 2013 10:32 am Steve Niles' "I Am Legend" adaptation is terrific. Dark, "realistic" and more interested in being true to the source material than in turning it into a conventional comic book.

January 11, 2013 1:06 pm You're right on. Norm's Batman was a force of nature and a real person at the same time.

When Comics Get Away From You, How Quickly Do You Come Running Back?
December 19, 2012 8:18 pm Going to bookstores is fun because there are sooo many choices that you get to just wander around and imagine how wonderful all the books are and how great it would be to read them all and then you find the exact one that you are into at that moment.
That is why a big stack is awesome. So much to choose from! Something for every mood! The bigger the stack, the better! I wish I had to build an addition onto my house to store my stack.

When Comics Get Away From You, How Quickly Do You Come Running Back?
December 19, 2012 8:14 pm When I got back into comics a few years ago I started with trades to get up to speed on what I missed during the previous decade. But before long I hit on the same major benefits you described. I stuck with the trades and wouldn't think of going back to issues. There is no upside, unless you are terrified of spoilers during the trade-wait.

Trailer: ‘Batman: The Dark Knight Returns – Part 1’
July 31, 2012 8:34 pm I'm with you on the concerns about Weller's voice. He seems to be playing it way to casual - no menace, rage or desperation at all.

Comic Book Casting: The SLEEPER Movie
July 30, 2012 11:01 am Excellent picks. The Cruise choice is inspired. But isn't McKellan getting a little long in the tooth to pass for a government operative? Even for just running agents, you probably don't see many guys in their 70s in that role.

SDCC 2012 Wrap Up: The Year Comics Broke
July 19, 2012 8:16 pm Anyone able to suggest a fun, big-to-mid-sized con somewhere that offers interesting r&r for the con-goer's wife? Never been to one bigger than small, but since returning to comics a few years ago my appetite has grown to the point where I need to purge the enthusiasm at a good con.
