Plastic Man.
Talk about a character with unlimited toy potential. Even going back to the Super Powers line of the mid-80s, he was one of the coolest around. Sure, it was just a stretching neck, but when the rest of the line could only kick and punch, it makes for a coveted figure. Heck, you can even [...]
Top 100 Summer Comics… #82
Jeph Loeb had a big day. Announced today as the new head of Marvel Television, Jeph Loeb sure has come a long way since his days at the x-table in the mid 90s. But sometimes, glory days still feel good once in a while. #83 – Cable 19 Long story short, Cable kinda sucks. He’s [...]
Mego-mania.
I never really got into Megos. I’m pretty sure I had a Hulk, a Spiderman, and a Spider-mobile as a little tyke, but that’s really it. I guess I came along just a smidge too late for them. But some people really dig em. They’re very collectible. Case in point. Under a day left, already [...]
Did I Miss A Random Comic Book Friday?
I do believe I did. Sorry about that, I got this new toy called an iPad and was busy playing with the Marvel and DC apps for most of last week… they’re pretty sweet, I’ve gotta say. Anyways, to make up for it, here are not 2, but THREE random comics (well, 2 comics and [...]
Shocking Humor Unbound!!!
We’ll call this the first entry in what will be many on the topic of underrated comic books. Ralph Snart is a masterpiece of American con jobs. It’s creator, Marc Hansen, managed to wedge this subversive piece of purely American, drunk, antiauthoritarian literature on the drugstore racks directly between Marvel Comics Presents and Spectacular Spider-Man. [...]

Sports and comics intertwine in the weirdest ways. Like that one Marvel had a Football player superhero who might as well have been sponsored by the NFL. Or… that time a cosmic bet was made by Uatu on the outcome of a one-handed Spider-Man playing football against bullies. This really happened. And you know what? [...]
Top 100 Summer Comics… #84
David Haller was always a lost soul. I guess that happens when you are the son of Charles Xavier, who proved himself to be quite an absentee father. Oh and by the way has dissociative identity disorder, or as they called it in the olden days, multiple personality disorder. And each of which comes with [...]
For the Thrifty Zeck Aficionado
I’ve been on this “fantasy home wall hanging” kick lately where I pretend I have limitless resources and shop for items I’d like to frame and hang on the wall of the home I don’t yet own. Unfortunately, having not been brought up rich, I always have it in the back of my head that [...]
Let Me Paint You a Picture
Large windows providing sunlight deep into the afternoon. Hardwood floors. “Pumpkin Spice” color paint in the living room. “Velvet Evening” color paint in the large, modern, bathroom. Two shower heads. The appliances in the sleek, spacious kitchen are a dull silver color, lending an industrial feel. The furniture is functional and tasteful, never grandiose or [...]
