What this haul lacks in quantity is made up for in quality. Groo 25th Anniversary special: I never had a chance to read much Groo since most of my early comics came from the local Lawson’s convenience stores. But there has never been a Groo story that failed to make me laugh and this special […]

Tyris Flare from Sega’s Golden Axe I did these Tyris sketches a few weeks ago. The reason that she’s not a fully picture now can be seen in the last sketch. I’m not sure how the sword would look in the same angle as the sprite’s pose. Having it in front of her shows a […]

And lo, I have returned from the lands of Notpostington to bring you (As if anyone’s reading this) this 100th post with a new, slightly-modded Default WordPress theme. Most blogs would celebrate their 100th post, but that won’t happen here. Why? Because what have I accomplished with this blog? Other than talking about the regional […]

I apologize to the four people that still read this blog for taking over a week to post. Right now I can feel my sinuses headknocking me from the inside and it seems as if almost every other allergy-sufferer around here is catching hell. I have quite a few unfinished posts and unstarted post ideas […]

I’m finally getting around to learning CSS. I’d put it off before because I kept reading that some browsers don’t use it. Unfortunately, I didn’t notice that all of those articles were old and that just about every browser worth a damn works with CSS. I’m experimenting with it on ScrollBoss first since it only […]

The Batman/Superman/Justice League DC Animated Universe is one of my favorite storylines ever, period, at all, fo’rilla. I love many of the designs and depictions there (the Question, Mr. Freeze, Toyman, the Question, The Joker, and more including the Question) even better than the real DC Comics. What I still haven’t found room enough in […]

(note: this was a review that I wrote a bit after the Shaw Bros./Dragon Dynasty DVDs hit and I’m too damned lazy to go in a change anything) So I got the Dragon Dynasty release of One-Armed Swordsman by the Shaw Brothers Studios a little while ago and said I’d ramble about it later. I’ll […]

Mike Wieringo: June 24, 1963 – August 12, 2007 Whenever I talk about what kept me from completely giving up on comic books in the 1990’s, I bring up Peter David’s run on the Incredible Hulk and Mark Waid’s run on the Flash. A big part of that Flash era was Mike Wieringo’s artwork. Those […]

The 25th Anniversary G.I.JOE figures have started hitting this area and I’ve been buying what I can. At this point, I have the Cobra set and the single pack versions of Snake-Eyes (pictured to the side), Storm Shadow, Cobra Commander (with the rag mask) and 2 Cobra Officers. It’s kinda weird that they put the […]

So. I’m Black. I’m a gamer. You’d think that I’d have commented on “that Resident Evil 5 controversy” by now. Well, I didn’t actually see it until Thursday because I’ve been too busy working on random stuff. And now that I’ve seen the trailer and read various blogs talking about it, I’m reminded of one […]
