He appears to have fall asleep while reading Frank Herbert’s final novel, Chapterhouse: Dune. While I love the novel, I can see why the old man reads it in sections between naps.
KILL BILL: The Whole Bloody Affair
I am very much loving the new poster art for the combined re-release of Kill Bill as one film! Not sure if I’ll go see it or not. I mean, I’ve seen both films multiple times and am not sure I can sit through a single version of them. That’s a long time sitting in…
∞ Crisis on Infinite Creeks ∞
Ym3443’s excellent Wonder Tweek and Super Craig illustration from several year’s back. I wouldn’t call ym3443 a SP artist really, but the few pieces she’s shared with the world are really great in a manga-esque style. I must admit I love Super Craig drawings in which he’s getting back up from taking a beating. I’m…
LEGO TNG Minifigs!
So LEGO announced a Star Trek: The Next Generation Enterprise-D set but quite frankly, I’m mostly interested in the minifigs! They beauty of minifig geekage is that it is small and doesn’t take up much space. I love that they’ve included a trombone accessory for Ryker, hot Earl Grey for Picard, and Spot for Data!…
The New Teen Titans (1980–1996)
My friend D*** also turned me onto DC’s The New Teen Titans during it’s first year or so. I think I was 1at the time. This would also be the first time I was really aware of writer Marv Wolfman and artist George Pérez and Pérez would go onto become the GOAT of super hero…
Tellus – Bronze Age Legion of Super-Heroes (1985-1994)
My friend D*** turned me onto the Legion of Super-Heroes around 1981 or so. I became quite a fan in my teen years, especially as the mid-80s hit and then Post-Crisis with the eventual 5 Year Later Legion. I lost interest after the introductions of the clones Legionairres and the eventual Zero Hour full reboot….
∞ Crisis on Infinite Creeks ∞
Mimi_sofa’s Creek illustrations are often an “advanced” take on the show models, but with solid changes to allow for so much more than can be done with the model characters (see her hockey interpretations). I am totally loving the “neon light” vibe of this Wonder Tweek and Super Craig piece. This is quite poster-worthy if…
🎧 Vampire Weekend’s 2010 album “Contra” 🎧
Wow! Is Contra really 15 years old now? Damn am I getting old!!! I very muched like Vampire Weekend’s sophomore effort. It is one of those magic albums that I love every track on and typically listen from beginning to end. Oddly, I didn’t give much attention to albums past this one. I may have…
Meet Your Second Wife – SNL
I had completely forgotten about this 9-year-old SNL skit titled “Meet Your Second Wife” in which 3 unsuspecting men end up on a game show that shows them/allows them to meet their future second wives that they don’t even realize exist. Their first wives are in the studio audience, and Lesley Jone’s stare is gold!!!…
Ilia Malinin is da bomb!
About 2 weeks ago I was recommended a video on ye olde YouTube that was a skating performance by Ilia Malinin who I had never heard of. Why had I never heard of him? Well, I don’t shit about figure skating and only watch it during the Winter Olympics. (I’m a fan of curling, but…
