Cory Doctorow Can't Lose
Aug 02I know, I know–Chris hates him.
Regardless, Cory Doctorow has exactly the right idea on digital comics.
Doctorow for Editor in Chief. Of EVERYTHING.
Let the arguements begin…
Aug 01Unfortunately I don’t know where this image originated, either in print or in blog (all I got sent was the image URL), but regardless, it’s sparked hours of debate here in the office. Spider-man basically takes a moment to group some popular heroes into “weight” classes. [comic shop guy] And the results are retarded.[/comic shop guy]
Oh sure, some of it depends on the era – She-hulk was little more than a Gamma irradiated chick to begin with, not the ass-kicker she is today. But Silver Surfer and Spider-man? That’s all kinds of whack.
The best is at the very beginning when Hulk complains he should be in a class by himself. Yes, yes he should.
Or maybe I’m wrong – tell me what you think of the list. And if anyone knows the original blog, please let me know so I can link to it.
Iron Man. Comic-Con. Plus: Linkadoodledoo.

Fanfic in my Mind
Jul 30The 4400 kind of blows this season. Thus, I spend most episodes idly wishing that Tom and Diana would totally DO IT. Yeah! Nobody cares about that blonde chick/obvious Tom love interest, 4400 producers. Or the suddenly-prominent IT guys. Or the fact that Shawn has magically transformed into a total idiot. But everyone — EVERYONE — cares about Tom and Diana DOING IT. Just trust me on this one.
