Happy New Year pt.2

Happy New Year pt.2

Jan 02

I’m back as well, and like Matt the holidays went very well… then the sinus/chest cold combo hit. Had-oo-ken! Pow! I’m done for.

But that just means I have more of a chance to play with a couple of toys. Here are the nerdiest of the holiday highlights;

– Absolute DC: New Frontier. If you have haven’t picked this series up, the you should get the two TPB volumes. And if you can go just a little bit further, pick up this slipcased hardcover. The extras in it are as spectacular as the original story.

– Dead Rising. I keep missing the little side missions, but I don’t care. And the game doesn’t care. I can save or not save as many people as I want. And along the way, I get to beat the crap out of endless hordes of zombies.

– Guitar Hero. My band is called Beedwolf. We rock. Hard.

– World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War. I blew through this book in about 36 hours, stop and go. I still disagree with the man, that a frozen zombie isn’t a dead zombie, but the rest of the book is exactly how the zombie apocalypse plays out in my nightmares.

– An Evening with Kevin Smith: Evening Harder. It’s Kevin Smith, talking about everything and nothing. Of particular interest is finding out that yes, indeed, Jen was mad at him for telling some of their stories on the first Evening With DVD.
