Re: So, What comics did you buy this week?

The catching up… Thanos 4. After Thanos ‘kills’ Death’s mortal shell and wakes her up, she’s kinda pissed at him. They throw down, and the Illuminati realize if Death kills Thanos and absorbs his power, the life-death balance will lead to catastrophic disaster on a cosmic universal scale. So they’re...

Re: Big score........

There was a mall show this weekend that I didn’t even know about until I went to a comic shop across the river yesterday, and they were closed because he had a table at the show. I spent a little bit more on some older back issues and issues to fill out runs, so there were some $5-7 books, but also ...

Re: So, What comics did you buy this week?

The Immortal Thor 1-7. Al Ewing took over the ongoing saga of Thor, immediately ‘fixing’ Mjolnir with the Odin/Thor power, and having Loki repair the Bifrost(although he/she/they used some questionable magic so that might rear up later). Thor returns to Earth and everything is going great until he e...

Re: So, What comics did you buy this week?

Finished the Teen Justice mini(well, almost. I only have the first five issues of a six issue series, but it was boring and I didn’t care about how it ended). On Earth-11, all the heroes are gender swapped, so Robin’s a girl, Raven’s a boy, Troia is now Troy, etc. They’re all bitchy towards each oth...

Currently $35.
All because of one panel, a full decade before Lucas sold to Disney, and 17 years before Grogu appeared onscreen.
It’s really that price because of that sweet panel featuring The Deuce.

Re: GIJoe

Duke 3 and Cobra Commander 2 both came out. I gotta say, I’m digging what Williamson is doing with the Joe-verse within the new Energon-verse. CC tracks the energon signature to the Everglades and crosses gunfire with the Drednoks, and the ending alludes to maybe Croc-Master showing up next issue. M...

Re: What have you watched lately?

Cliffhanger is perhaps the wrong word. The movie changes one big aspect of the first book, but ends at the same place. I don’t know if you’ve read the books or seen the other film versions, so I don’t want to spoil anything. After trying to avoid the prophecy and his destiny as the Kwisath Hadderach...

Re: What have you watched lately?

Dune. In preperation, I rewatched part 1 during the week. It’s the third or fourth time I’ve watched it. I was kinda underwhelmed when I saw it in theater a few years ago. Thought it was overlong. But I like it more with each viewing. And today, went and saw Part 2. Just as visually magnificent as t...

Re: What's up with the pathetic remakes of shit

Does the original Crow movie hold up? I haven't seen it since it came out. I'm having trouble imagining Liam Neeson as Frank Drebin. I watched the Crow last weekend. I think it held up pretty well. I always thought the third act kinda devolved into a generic action flick showdown with the Top Dolla...

Re: What's up with the pathetic remakes of shit

Paramount vows to leave no franchise unsullied and tarnished and announces a Naked Gun reboot.

There is literally nobody worth taking that role who would take that role.

Shameful.

Re: So, What comics did you buy this week?

Dove into the ‘T’ stuff. I started with Teen Justice, which was a gender swapped Teen Titans multiverse miniseries, and only got thru an issue and a half before I decided it was boring a.f. I’ll get back around to it eventually, but I skipped ahead in the pile and finished Cates’ Thor run. Thor 14. ...

Re: What have you watched lately?

The Crow. Had it on in the background while I was doing other stuff. Afterwards, Amazon Prime’s algorithm recommended Little Nicky to me. Fuck you, Prime. Do better. The Peacemaker. Some bent Russians steal a bunch of nukes and Clooney and Kidman stop a guy from blowing up the U.N. After I saw it wa...

Re: I am joining the PTA...

My youngest turned 21 last week. To celebrate we decided to try one of those escape rooms. It was me,my wife, and both my 25 year old daughter and my son. It was going fine until things in the room weren’t working properly. There was a ‘word’ lock to open up a locker and we figured out the word was ...
