First A coupe of skits about life in our new plague ridden world. NEXT Coverage of the amazing debacle that is Marvel’s the new New Warriors. Or at least as much as I can be bothered with. The Quartering’s video which was honestly just a little suspiciously fast off the blocks. I can’t help but […]

Daniel Kibblesmith drove home a point to me. Comics are the new White People Welfare. That used to be book contracts, (actually it still is). There would be a family wastrel that needed to be propped up or there was a new face in town that everyone wanted on the cocktail circuit for whatever reason. […]

Right now the Democrats are strongly considering the problem of Wandering Joe Biden. While they were panic-stricken over the idea of Bernie as their candidate due to the popular perception, that Trump would have no trouble running against Communism.
