A long while back,  our podcast had the pleasure of talking with Death’s Head Moth; a Real Life Superhero.   Many people, much as I used to be, don’t take the concept very seriously.  However, there are men and women who put on their uniforms/costumes (both...

This might be the most difficult review I’ve written to date.  It’s not because the material is bad, but it’s because periodically I like to challenge myself with something so far beyond my normal wheelhouse that it might as well be alien to me.  That’s...

After two days at a con, I’m exhausted! I had every intention of getting this out as soon as I got home from Sci-Fi Expo, but I found myself completely wiped out after all the excitement that I was too out of it to put together coherent thoughts! Day 2 had me heading directly to the...

It should come as no surprise to anyone that the courts ruled to let Warner Brothers keep their hold over Superman. The 2001 agreement made with the with the Siegels convinced the Court of Appeals that the family had already reached an agreement to keep Superman in the hands of DC...

When I’m at work, I sometimes get too wrapped up in what I’m doing to look at all the fan sites and see what’s going on in our world of geekdom. There are times I make it to MSN or Yahoo News to get some info as to what’s going on out there, and sure enough...

Another Dallas Comic Con come and gone.   I think there is a part of me that’s sad to have seen it gone, especially since the first one of these I went to was so small in comparison to what I’ve seen the past 2 days. To say I had a fun experience is understating the situation....
