There was a trend in the 80's in comics to do these catalog-like dossiers of comics characters like Who's Who in the DC Universe and Official Guide to the Marvel Universe. GI Joe comics had a series like that and one character listed there was Rocky Balboa. Yes, that Rocky. He wore boxing gloves all the time (and no

I LOVED The Master in the way only a 9-old could, cutting a slit in my winter hat and stalking the shadows of my house, pretending I was Sho Kosugi. I was a total badass (in my mind.) That is one of those shows that I now actively avoid trying to find the old episodes because I know I will be sorely disappointed.

Welcome to io9.

Word.

Makes me long for the old Jedi Knight series.

Ideally, HBO or Showtime would be a good place for Hellblazer. Marc Warren certainly looks the part but I worry he wouldn't be able to carry the series. He has the con artist feel down from his work on Hustle, but after seeing him on BBC's version of Dracula with Sophia Myles, I am not sure he has John's requisite

I would pay real money to see Peter Dinklage in a white pimp suit playing Arcade.

Now that they have gotten away from the tiny general and the droids, these last few episodes of Clone Wars have been really stellar. The show has been on longer than the Clone Wars lasted, so I think it is maybe time they start pulling the strings together and moving it towards merging with ROTS. Now that Disney has

I'm a tremendous Hellblazer fan and would like to say that Constantine would have been a fine film (even with Keanu) had it not supposed to have been John Constantine. They need to try again, a weekly series would be great but not stemming from the movie. There was a Kickstarter not too long ago for a web-based weekly

He received damage, but escaped with his ship and life intact. So I suppose the call for reinforcements succeeded in its original purpose.

+1!

Didn't they already do the Android Buddy Cop Show? It aired in the early nineties and was called "Mann & Machine" with Yancy Butler (of Witchblade fame) as the robot.

I had never heard the term "contract archaeologist." Did not know that was a thing. Who knew?

I have never seen Jennifer's Body or Snakes on a Muthaf*ckin Plane, but you hit the nail on the head with the rest. All of them are fine movies. Well done!

Book 1 was a masterpiece! I dove immediately into book 2 and was stuck with the impression that Rothfuss got to book 2 and said, "Jesus, I have built this guy up so much there is no way I am going to be able to stuff all this in there." It felt rushed. We got told about a bunch of events rather shown them and I think

I am fairly positive that Jeff Bridges plays a witch-hunter in this movie, not a wizard.

John Harrison was a crewman in Space Seed of TOS.

Maybe we can get the time-travelling/alternate timeline stuff in Days of Future Past to smooth over the continuity errors. May be the point, even. Other than to cash in on the franchise again, of course. Would be worth seeing if they can do it artfully.

Word.

If the Doctor meets Clara in the Victorian age, is it not unreasonable to assume that Clara is Oswin's ancestor?
