Probably since my obsession with The X-Files in the 90’s, I’ve loved all the paranormal shows on TV. I will pretty much watch any of them and over the past few years, the number of these shows has been increasing–with some better than others. Whether you’re a Mulder or a Scully, there is probably a creepy show…
I’m Loving: Hamilton’s Original Broadway Cast Recording
I have emotions for Alexander Hamilton. That’s not really a sentence I ever expected I’d have a reason to say, but actor-composer Lin-Manuel Miranda has a way of swinging the unexpected into one’s life. Miranda’s original musical Hamilton revisits the man known best for his appearance on the US $10 bill and his infamous duel with Aaron Burr,…
I’m Loving Super Junior’s Devil!
Two weeks ago, I fell into a Super Junior sized hole in the shape of their latest single: Devil. I’ve never really listened to K-Pop (Korean Pop music) prior to this and have only had limited contact with it through the reaction videos of popular youtubers or Emma Stone talking about it on Conan. Super Junior is one…
I’m Loving: Phil Hester and John McCrea’s Mythic
While I am primarily a Marvel reader, every now and then a non-Marvel comic will catch my eye and interest. Right now, that comic is Mythic, a new series by author Phil Hester and artist John McCrea and published by Image. Just three issues in, Hester has set up a wildly imaginative world, full of…
I’m Loving: Lord Snooty and His Pals
My God, Dudley D. Watkins was a genius. It’s not a word I use lightly. While there are a lot of comics creators out there with staggering levels of talent whose work can make you see the world in a whole new way, they’re not all geniuses as such. But every line that Watkins drew,…
I’m Loving: The 90s Batman Movies
Netflix has every Batman movie from the original Burton franchise up, and I love rewatching them all over again. One of the first Batman anything I ever saw was Batman and Robin, the fourth movie of the franchise that featured Uma Thurman as Poison Ivy and Arnold Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze. The movie was terrible,…
I’m Loving Steven Universe
Once upon a time, a dear friend and cartoon animation buff recommended a new Cartoon Network show called Steven Universe. As one who was mostly ignorant of but eager to experience a new generation of cartoons, and having previously fallen head over heels for Adventure Time, Bee and Puppycat, and Gravity Falls thanks to this…
I’m Loving: Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters
Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters (Special Operations Squadron Go-Busters) is the 36th entry in the long-running, cultural icon that is the Super Sentai Series by Toei and Bandai and aired on TV Asahi. For those who don’t know, Super Sentai has been the source material for the long-running beloved American franchise that is Power Rangers, with the…
We’re Loving: Bitch Planet
We are SO EXCITED about Bitch Planet by Kelly Sue Deconnick and Valentine De Landro. I mean, everyone is, but guys, we are SO EXCITED. Here’s why: 1. DAT ART. Valentine De Landro’s art is so good. SO GOOD. This page reminds us of Ghost in the Shell and Sailor Moon? Other pages are…
New Comics from Youth In Decline? Oh My. OH MY.
Ryan Sands last gave me heart palpitations when he and Michael DeForge released images from their cartoon-that-wasn’t, MallNation, but now he’s gone and released details of Youth In Decline‘s 2015 line up. HOLD ME.
Evil Dead Coming to TV… with Bruce Campbell
The Evil Dead series extends past the three original movies to a 2013 reboot, a travelling musical, games, comics, and now, a TV show. A TV SHOW! Poorly named American network Starz will bring the horror comedy titan to TV in 2015. Original director/producer team Sam Raimi and Rob Tapert are set to produce the series,…
I’m Loving ElfQuest: The Original Quest Gallery Edition
ElfQuest was the first comic book I really loved. It was also my first “adult” comic; after reading Betty & Veronica digests and incomprehensible 90s X-Men comics as a tween, ElfQuest felt thrilling and new, with just enough sexuality and violence for me to keep the books on a shelf where my parents couldn’t see….
