Comic collector, reader, and writer for fun. Fan of all things horror, and ninja turtles. In my down time I manage a restaurant and sometimes do things. Sometimes.
This is true.
Holy crap.

PREDATOR: KILLER OF KILLERS is a freaking masterpiece.

I finished the first draft of my first book; not a fiction novel that I've been trying to finish for years but a nonfiction novel on leadership in the service industry.

My head is spinning diving into my research. I have books and notepads laid everywhere and something to watch for inspiration on.

I love Nosferatu and I love Aaron Taylor Johnson's performance in it, but his accent reminds me of this Key & Peele skit; you absolutely cannot deny the local customs!

Today's find was Daredevil #25, 1967, first appearance of the Leap Frog!

I love silly characters like this. I think a good writer can take characters like this, show them respect, and find a niche to put them in a good modern story.

Though, I did enjoy him in the She-Hull show. But there's a way.

Daredevil #8, by artist Wally Wood, first appearance of Stiltman.

Stiltman has been such a cliche of a silly character, he's "the" silly character. But I think there's an untapped story potential of a character who messes with Daredevils senses to appear very tall.

It's not often, but if I had to recommend a comic book series or character for someone who has never read or can't seem to get into comic books, I'd 100% always recommend Hellboy.

Mike Mignola's writing and art style is simple, but impactful and meaningful.

I got home to my back door wide open. Cats are here. Nothing is missing. Comics are safe.

Chrono was alert.
Here, Shadow, was hiding.

I like to think they fought off the intruder and protected their home.

I want to make grilled cheese, but I have no cheese.

That's as deep as I get.

It took me years to realize I'm a fan of art. It started with toy boxes, like original TMNT figures, then NES games like Zelda and Final Fantasy. Recently it was records.

I had to have the vinyl soundtrack to Tony Hawks Pro Skater. Looks dope too, that concrete color record.

I rewatched Season 2 of Mindhunter randomly, then went and started season 1 over.

I wanted something that just felt like autumn. Something quiet. Something that made me think, but I could put on in the background and read a book. Something intriguing nonetheless.

There really should've been a S3.

Avengers 223. A UK copy. Always a cool cover to show off. It reminded me to go watch Captain America Civil War again.

This is wonderful news.
Hi everyone.

The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.

We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.

We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.

I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.

The satirical news site planned to turn Infowars into a parody of itself, mocking “weird internet personalities” who peddle conspiracy theories and health supplements.

Now reading Grant Morrison's Doom Patrol.

I read the first collection a few years back and finally collected the rest but I'm starting over from the first volume.

I'm loving it all over again. I guess I need to go back and finish the show too.

Me and Francois Chau from TMNT 2 and now the Penguin. Totally awesome person. I met him at this year's Memphis Comic Expo.

Punk rock mohawk Storm by Kyle Hotz. A warmup sketch i got last year at the Memphis Comic Expo.

Ororo Munroe is my favorite member of the X-Men and loved the punk look. It was at a previous MCX I wondered what her first appearance of having the mohawk, Uncanny X-Men 173 which I found there.

I loved The Batman. I loved the Penguin. I'll make a joke out of something I didn't like about the Batman is that the dark Knight affected the story of the Penguin about as much as he did in his own movie. The Riddler killed all he wanted, except Bruce, and blew Gotham up to hell.

Waiting for the Penguin finale. The series is exactly the feel I thought it'd be. It's great, but it's not breaking any new ground for the Batman mythos.

Sophia Falcone is the highlight of the show, as Oz is. What'll happen to Vic?

Only time....one hour...will tell. Who's watching?

Uncanny X-Men 141. Writer Chris Claremont. Artist John Byrne. Released 1981.

This is a cover most fans recognize without ever seeing or reading the book. It's too iconic.

Read the plot synapsis and it feels like we're going to be living in the days of future past. Hope not. Read it.
