I Have the Plague

So, where the All You Need to Know for the New Avengers?  The preview solicits?  The pomp?  The circumstance?
My deepest apologies, dear reader.  I have been sick as dog these past few weeks and I promise things’ll be back to normal shortly.
Whatever normal is …

Wonder of Wonders

So… apparently when I press the ‘Publish’ button on the WordPress console in a rush to get my reviews (much snappier this week as I had about a short shift at work to digest them), it apparently sent them all to the mess that is my drafts.  Good job, there.
So, probably today I’ll post them [...]

Reach Out and Touch

The first time a ‘Real Live Professional’ ever wrote me was to correct that fact I’d called him Paul. I was mortified.
The second time was Lea Hernandez, commenting on something I wrote enough for me to go and find the nearest person and rave at them for this wonderful note I was left. [...]

No, really… Why Not?

At work on Wednesday, my boss is trying to get people ot pick up the new Spider-Man: Reign mini-series that he just might have over ordered on.  “It’s like Dark Knight Spider-Man,” he lures customers with and for some, it works.  Other want a little more info.
“Who’s Kaare Andrews,” one asks, leaving him to pause [...]

All You Need to Know: Snap Judgments 2006

The holiday season and 2006 are winding to a close, leaving me to rock in a chair by the fire with a mug of mulled cider and ponder what to do for a year-end at Snap Judgments. I mean, everyone else is probably going to look back on the year that was, picking Best [...]

Rise… like the PHOENIX!

Everytime I see that word, I just want to spell it the wrong way.
And where have we been, young lady?  Well, from being rather ill these past few weeks to taking a note from Alan Moore and moving far into the countryside (though no, still no magic cave) where internet access is wild and untamed, [...]

Where Are We?

So.  Not much going on weekly at the ol’ homestead, eh?
I have recently moved from an apartment to a swanky cabin in the hills (teaching me just how many comics I have and it’s not a pretty number), been taken in by two kittens (B’Elanna and Garak and, why yes, I am a huge nerd.) [...]

Run Silent, Run Deep

So.
Where have YOU been, young lady?
Just when I figured I hit the big time, just when FREAKIN’ NEWSARAMA picked up a little ol’ article BY ME to use in their spiffy new blog, just when 300 PEOPLE come by to see what Snap Judgments is this… this, ladies and gentlemen, is when Real Life reared [...]

Just a Little About Where You Are

So, since people have been rather pleasantly disposed towards my little humble home of geekery, why not snazz the place up a bit? I whipped up some quickie comic banners, found a nice looking layout and hopefully some interesting things to say.
I’m also now officially listed on the Comic Weblog Update page, not to [...]

Crazy Town

Okay, I’m not the gossipy type, but to let you kindly folks know… it’s been a long day.  Reviews are forthwith (despite the fact I seem to be missing some of my notes…), but probably slow going.
We now return you to your next over-hyped Marvel ‘company wide’ event.
