That's because he's not.

Really. Can you imagine how many times Arya got hit in the face by the Waif before she won? I'd seen enough of that.

Goodbye, Blackfish. Yet another anti-climactic end to a long-running plotline.

I haven't read it, but I'm encouraged to hear they seem to have salvaged Batwoman from the shitheap her last book turned into.

Like a number of these Rebirth creative teams, I wonder about sustainability. Eddy Barrows last got a big push drawing Superman during JM Staczinski's ill-fated run a few years ago. He seemed to have deadline troubles then, and I see a lot of his recent work being finished by other pencilers.

Moon Safari encapsulated a certain time for me. But I think that Air exhausted their bag of tricks fairly early in their career. While I'm curious to hear what they have been doing during their post-electronica wilderness years, I don't know if I'm that curious.

Does this mean Peter Facinelli's crummy Max Lord character is being shown the door? Please let it be.

Now maybe if Obama would just appear on Bill Maher's show, he'd shut the fuck up about it.

And they suck cock by choice!

Actually, when I saw the first shot of the nail being made, I thought Gendry was the one being reactivated this week. Alas, not to be.

Oh, it's not just me, then.

While it would have been nice for McShane to hang around for a few more episodes, it's pretty clear that the objective of his character was achieved in this episode. And they're not sparing the time this season to show the Hound getting his groove back over multiple episodes.

That's the truly heart-breaking thing about the recent loss of all these icons. Bowie, Prince, Ali… We will truly never see their like again. Innovators, people of principle, titans of their chosen profession that reached beyond that profession are passing from this world. And leaving behind people that bow to…

You wouldn't have had to wait long. Friday night on MSNBC, shortly after I heard the news, Brian Williams anchored a gas-on session about Ali featuring Bob Costas, Matt Lauer, and some sports-writing hacks. But really no one to discuss Ali's social significance. And no black people.

I know one thing doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the other, but the comic this is based on is kind of a dreary slog. I bought the first collection of six issues, and although it flowed as seamlessly as the Walking Dead trades, I kept waiting for the story to kick in, and it never did.

Isn't everybody's?

Well, there was that Thing with no pants.

Too bad for DL. He's one of the few comedians who can articulate a political opinion when he's on Bill Maher's show. Most of the other Kings of Comedy seem to have found their niche over the years (RIP, Bernie Mac), but he's still drifting.

My kids like to watch Family Feud during dinner. And it is obvious, at this point, that the Family Feud producers are constantly trolling Steve Harvey. I saw an episode last week, where a family of Indian descent was matched against a family of African origin. The combination of difficult-to-pronounce first and last…

Can I ask a question? Where does Modell plan on purging these CDs? Of the scant amount of record stores left in my area, I think there's only one left that buys used. And I haven't sold them anything in years.
