Dread

From what I hear it is horrible, and yes it's almost the same as the X-Men Legends games. Great, this time you can use the JLA to fight an endless army of footsoldiers of varying degree. I'll skip it. Thanks

Infinitely bigger. Alan Moore doesn't even like his own stuff let alone things on network tlevision. The most fickle human alive is a pot-smoking warlock from Northern England and he's going to guest on Simpsons because he's a big fan. In fact, Stan Lee is a bit of a shill and doesn't take much prodding to put himself on TV. I would compare this to the snaring of reclusive postmodern novelist Thomas Pynchon a few seasons ago.

Seeing as I've beaten X-Men and own the sequel without even opening it over the past year: I'll pass. Is the JL game the same kind of gameplay?

From Newsarama Alan Moore makes me all happy in my head.

Yeah, I thought that too. Looks too CG-y. Think they'll fix it if it's been used in the trailer?

Get ready for it.... Best comic being published today.

Is it just me or are they showing wayyyyy too much of the movies in the trailers lately? Two and a half minutes? Too long, too much content, too much!! On another note: Sandman killed Uncle Ben?

uhm...yes please. I hope this will all lead to a new Defenders. But not a New Defenders... Or a Secret Defenders for that matter.

Right on. Not including Vertigo and Wildstorm, the DC I'm reading is JLofA, Teen Titans, Morrison's Batman (done this month), the All-Star books and 52. And I consider myself more of a DC fan. At least I did. I'll be dropping JLofA after the first arc if it continues the way it's going and I'm only buying Batman because it's Morrison and because it's the sequel to my favourite Batman story of all time. ASB&RtBW is dropped as of now (one issue a year is reserved only for Planetary and Ultimates 2). I fully believe that All Star Superman is the best superhero comic being published today, and maybe ever.

<applause> Well done, sir. I both love and hate this series. Love it because of the great ideas and the well-needed shot in the arm it would give Marvel. I hate it because I actually get excited about some of the stuff you're talking about...The Ellis Secret War thing? Perfect! Ostrander on Omega Flight? Gold! Suicide Squad remains my favourite series of all-time and I consider it the first modern comic series. Of course, a nice long run by Ostrander on OF would allow me the time to establish myself in the industry and take over for him when he leaves;) What If? I'd love to see it back but I'm not sure if I'd like to see 6 issue runs, especially by Ennis who seems to decompress everything so much these days you can barely get through a character tying their shoelaces before the issue is over. I like the tight stories of the older What If?'s (IE: What if Vision destroyed the Avengers?, and What if the Second Richards child had lived? or whatever it was called.) I anxiously await the DC version. Seeing as you're a little biased towards Marvel (something I've picked up, I might be wrong) I'm expecting even better shake-ups.

When I was a kid, we took a jaunt across the border to stay at our neighbour's summer home and went to Fred Meyer to get one treat each. I picked the Nintendo cereal (with two separate bags of cereal: Zelda and Mario!!!). I opened both bags and mixed them together for what had to be the unhealthiest breakfast ever.

Matt? I thought the kid's name was Mika?!

looks great but I'm not sure it'll knock Detective Chimp off of my desktop... but it looks soooo nice. That Olivetti fella has got some chops.

And yet this is the first time we see him or even know of him being mentioned? Agreed. Like Jessica. Love Hiro. Great to see him do some more saving. Mika? Wow...cool stuff.

The ONLY way it'll work is if Smith loses a lot of weight and the play up the fact that is is a bit of an awkward looking fella. Gangly and all. He'd be channeling Vincent Price in that respect. Thanks for the comment Holacik! Don't be a stranger. And DO pick up that book!!! Try to get the edition with the short stories in the back matter. Excellent stuff. Incidentally, the screenplay I mentioned has been removed (no surprise there) but scrolling down to the last third of this page has the first few pages posted

I KNEW that would be the banner image. It's my favourite yet!

KOTOR was the first rpg I ever played. Loved it, played it twice but after playing the dark side warrior(very well, I might add) playing the light side consular was so damn hard.

Dang you Yoda!!! If Hiro becomes a villain then my childhood will officially be ruined. He's the best TV character since...well...ever.

I really want to go. I'm kidding. My parents live south of Toronto. I'm teaching summer school up until the first week of August and then we'll fly out there. I'll drive from Toronto. It's only 10 or 11 hours that way. If I were driving from Vancouver I'd go to San Diego.

If all goes well, I'll be there this year. I only need a car. If I can convince my collaborator to drive we'll be there!

I would have voted Fable if it was there but I haven't played the sequel. Halo is undeniably one of the biggest video games ever. It ushered in the modrn age where they are making more money than feature films.

Shit. Hope everything's okay. Des

Best one yet! Casey on Iron Man is so obviously the only choice. I've always pictured Hulk as a horror book. Peter David and Sam Kieth's Mr. Hyde issue is one of the best horror comics ever published. I'd cut off a pinky to read Morrison on FF. The MCP thing is where you hit the nail on the head. The sales would be relatively consistent with the top-tier guys and the youngsters would be given the shot that the big two rarely gives new creators. <tips hat> Well done sir!

So goddamn crazy.

I'm planning on introducing the wife to Night of the Living Dead and Nosferatu tonight. I used to go see the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra perform the live score to Nosferatu while the movie played on a screen behind them. Amazing. I'm too far away from Vancouver to do that now.
