2007 was a weird year for me. In the first few months of 2007, I was basically crippled. I had a painful [...]

Comments (0)Mike Wieringo passed away yesterday of an apparent heart attack. Newsarama has the details.
From all accounts, Mike was a healthy 44-year old vegetarian. All who knew him said he was in great shape. His death feels senseless.
I’ve never hidden my love of the Fantastic Four. When I think of the stories I’ve enjoyed the most, [...]

Comments (1)From today’s Bad Signal:
“ Almost ten years to the month that John Cassaday and I had our
first conversation at San Diego about creating a new series: I have
just completed and delivered the full script for PLANETARY #27,
the final issue of the series.
I am now going to get drunk and find something to have sex
with. I’m [...]

Comments (0)At Gail Simone’s board, one of the posters (Ed Contradictory- what an alias!) posted this, and my heart stopped.
I edited it to fit here.

Comments (1)TwoMorrows is publishing a book about the greatest inker ever, Joe Sinnott.
I’ve bought a ton of TwoMorrows books over the years, and I’ve never been disappointed. John Morrow and his crew do a fantastic job of covering the history of comics and the lives of the people who make them. John has a special love [...]

Comments (5)My bum leg felt okay tonight, and my wife needed to shop for her mom’s birthday, so we hit the Monmouth Mall tonight. While walking around, we spotted a store we had never seen before:
The merchandise for sale was…ahem…rather interesting. Exotic lingerie…
…spare uniforms for nurses and cops…
…shoes only a stripper could love…
…and Halloween costumes for [...]
