Dude had children. Two little girls under the age of ten. It's sad, but I can only hope his meningitis case contributed to it. Otherwise… man up.

One Cool Thing About IDW: they do a great job of copy-editing their books. No lie! Marvel and DC don't. The last issue of that Hickman thing still had a Hickman-ism, Black Panther telling Doom the heroes were "biding time", that is, buying time (they were certainly not biding their time).

I haven't followed everything this guy's done but his parents are smart and he seems pretty clever.

Dave, I don't really know or remember who you were. I didn't read the story or the comments. Were you involved with a pornographic video game once? Anyway, it's sad when someone dies and that's no joke.

Thanks to me, you now "know" Batman.

LOL @ the example establishing a degree between Danzig the Act and Composer Glenn Danzig.

I don't think the idea of Dennis being good at things is at all alien to the show. There's a reason they picked him as the character to deliver the line about all of them having become weird. The show seems to consistently portray Dennis as having had glory days that actually were kind-of glory days in the eyes of…

On what planet is a movie goof not a traditional episode of Sunny?

When I realized they were showing two episodes in a row that depended completely on the past, to the point of mania, I really enjoyed this one.

I think Independence Day ended up as a perfectly fine movie that I've seen a few times and enjoyed each time. It's goofy, but it gets off enough jokes and sight gags per minute with a solid cast to land plenty. It has enviable pacing and some nice, often-imitated visuals that carved their own place in pop culture. The…

You've explained where they found you. Where do the rest of them come from? Do you have a farm?

Well, video games are getting interested in humanity, rather than weird addictive escapism. Which is good, and also just reflects the commercial landscape in the video game market right now - all the talk at least is about the never-gonna-end boom in small games, small bucks. But a lot of people don't like the idea…

Oh man, that is… that is one depressing headline. I mean, it's true. But wow. You're mean to your readers. I remember a story full of comments on here recently trying to argue against people who consider video games a "waste of time". Those people are gonna get upset again. Not us, the people who wrote those comments.

I can't read a headline about this act without remembering that pretty good get-high-and-make out song by Cracker.

Your deep denial of your own ideological hang-ups makes me think you're about to buy a movie ticket out of pure spite. Which isn't great

…sight unseen, your definitive source is Slate and the Grauniad?

Maybe you should try seeing movies.

While I'm commenting to no one on lost reviews of decades-old TV episodes: I always appreciated how the two captains' improvised weapons in "Arena" paralleled their tactics at the beginning of the show: the Gorn lays a trap, while Kirk lobs a missile. This corresponds in turn to their presentation: the Gorn captain's…

I came looking for this ancient review after catching "Balance of Terror" in re-runs.
