Won't somebody think of the man-children! Who maybe did something inappropriate with children!

At this point he should just try to mash everything he keeps trying to pull off together into one giant cinematic lump. We can have Hellboy and Norman Reedus as himself teaming up to fight their own inner demons at the Silent Mountains of Madness. And then whatever else he can never get done.

In my defense, while I perhaps watched it during earlier seasons due to just being semi-interested in stuff, these days I usually only watch it because I'm absorbed in something else and leave it on as background noise. And also Khary Payton was on it, so that was a plus. It's still hard to sit there while the various

It was nice to have increased interest in the show again! After the first half of the season, I was feeling FtWD levels of excitement. I'm down for some villains grinding the main people down, but I guess I just hit my limit for how much the show can alternate between "hey, they did some good stuff there" and "good

So it's safe to say R.O.T.O.R. is still the superior film with a female character with the last name Steele. Probably some other movie, but I just wanted an excuse to bring up R.O.T.O.R. for no reason.

Is this going to be Dog Soldiers, but everyone turns into a werehorse instead? And will Kevin McKidd be in it too?

And lo, Greg Berlanti's other success with DC properties begat Black Lightning, and Black Lightning begat a Blue Devil series, and the Blue Devil series begat a Shadowpact series, and the Shadowpact series spunneth off what would become the grandest of all DC television shows, Detective Chimp.

I was so hoping I'd get another excuse to link to that, but ya beat me to it. Bravo!

Yes, I agree. Let's replace Trump with Malcolm McDowell as soon as possible!

Now that I know Future Quest is a 12-issue series, I really wish I'd just trade waited. It was the one title out of these first four H-B things that I was sold on immediately thanks to the characters and creative team, but the now-obvious fact that it was probably always going to be a limited series along with the

I still like the Hydra Cap story conceptually, although I'm not actually reading it myself. I like the idea that Red Skull finally beats Steve via Cosmic Shenanigans, only to screw himself over in the long run. It just sounds like an interesting story that is, of course, a TEMPORARY break from Plain Vanilla Steve

I'd been wondering all day if this story was fake or not. I guess not! Definitely the least mind-meltingly stupid thing to happen recently, so I'll give PETA some points for that.

I hope the commercials for the sequel are as awful and obnoxious as they were for the first one!

Well, I'm just making a guess as to it being over after March. The lack of any solicit info on a new issue could possibly just be it skipping a month, but since Marvel usually doesn't have stuff miss a month without an explanation outside of delayed event stuff, and also doesn't really tell you when a final issue is a

That reminds me that I still need to pick up House of Penance sometime. I'd planned on ordering the trade, but I think it came out in a month I'd already packed full of potential order arrivals. Hooray for getting too much from DC Collectibles, with their wildly unpredictable final release dates.

Ah shit. The one time I figure it'd be too much trouble to go digging back into past comments to find it, and it's not too far past the button to load more stuff. Oh well! Let's change it to "Clint's still the guy, but he's also racist, and the orangutan is replaced with either an Asian kid or a car or a car that's

Has anyone suggested that they just get Clint to reprise the role and replace the orangutan with a chair? If not, there's my contribution. HAR HAR HAR!

It's kind of weird to me how I often associate actors with stuff they did that probably isn't really anywhere near their most notable roles. Although I tend to recall the various shows he was on, the first thing that usually comes to mind is The Night Flier, and also The Stand.

On the one hand, I'd love to see it revived. On the other hand, I'd fear it going down the same path as before, as good things can apparently never last.
