Yeah, I'm kind of curious who he thinks would immediately be considered a bad choice for member of the Wyatt Family. I don't anything about him or his opinions though, so I really can't even speculate.

I have to say, it's kind of a weird experience going to the Uproxx Best and Worst column and reading your comment a second time. Not bad or anything, but it's always a bit odd even though it's happened multiple times.

Since NXT has been my first time seeing Samoa Joe wrestle, I have to say that he seemed a lot better this week than he has up to this point. Hopefully he's in the process of shaking off the cobwebs left from TNA. I get that for some people it almost doesn't matter since he's SAMOA JOE IN WWE, but it would be really…

He claims that the new costumes only represent what the "vocal few" want, but sales figures on recent Marvel books have shown pretty clearly that he's objectively wrong. If we were still living in the era that made people like Larsen, Lee, and Liefeld huge stars then his points would be valid, but that interview made…

I googled "Erik Larsen costumes," and from reading the interview on Reaxxion that came up first his further comments sound like backpedaling rather than elaboration. I'm also of the opinion that practicality is often overrated in costume designs, but from the interview it sounds like the main thing he's upset about…

I'm surprised Bray Wyatt hasn't come up in this conversation, since he's about as much of a product of WWE developmental as anyone can be. A lot of people seem to be tired of him these days, but it would be foolish to claim that he hasn't gotten anywhere or that he can't connect with audiences on a large stage.

I think there was some thought given to that, since the quadrillionaire who started it all is described as being obsessive in a really negative way. I feel like it kind of drops the ball on that idea by the end to just unironically celebrate how great all this pop-culture garbage is though. There's definitely some…

The actual scavenger-hunt adventure story is pretty fun. It's just coated in this weird off-putting nostalgic idolization of bullshit nerd culture. Overall I don't regret reading it.

I feel like they've been letting Enzo look more competent lately, which will hopefully give them a lot more room to play with the way Enzo and Cass operate. I also feel like tag matches being beholden to a really stale formula is kind of a company-wide problem though.

You might be surprised what they'll care about. It's hard out there for incredibly privileged people looking to get offended.

That's interesting. I should go see if DC has printed more of their new collected volumes of those. I bought the first one when it came out and then didn't notice any others.

I do think that Snyder goes a bit too far in making Mr. Freeze delusional. I think that "Cold Comfort" does the same thing much better, where it shows that the actual Nora is incompatible with the version that existed in Mr. Freeze's head without completely making everything about Mr. Freeze a lie. I kind of…

That's exactly why Snyder's revised version of Freeze works. Nora's character was always inconsequential to the Mr. Freeze story, so fundamentally changing who she was doesn't actually change anything about Mr. Freeze. I think the Snyder version just makes certain off-putting aspects of Mr. Freeze more difficult to…

One big issue that I've always had with Heart of Ice (and the BtAS Mr. Freeze in general) is the way Nora is always treated as this literal object, where nothing about her character is in any way consequential to her role in the story. I'm pretty ambivalent towards the way Snyder wrote Mr. Freeze on the whole, but I…

I read Usagi Yojimbo Saga Vol. 2, the second volume in Dark Horse's ~600 page collections of all the Usagi Yojimbo they've published. Usagi Yojimbo is consistently excellent in a way that I've never really seen in such a long running series, and I would strongly recommend these collections. Vol. 2 had the story…

Plus the formula of Enzo getting worked over and making a tag to Cass is so strongly coded into that team's DNA that it's hard to imagine their opponents not following the heel formula.

I watch NXT on Hulu Plus because NXT is the only WWE product I care about and Hulu has a way better collection of episodes than the Network. I'm glad that they're not having title changes without showing it happen on NXT.

It was pretty cool revisiting Emma vs. Carmella after the development the two of them have gone through, but it also kind of highlighted just how much better Emma is at wrestling. Emma challenging Sasha for the championship would actually be really cool. I'm kind of hoping things lead there.

My biggest hope about TNA right now is that they release a really awesome EC3 dvd set before they go out of business. EC3 and Rockstar Spud have consistently been the best things about the show since they arrived, and it would be great to get a bunch of that in one place. Considering that they've released about a…

That backstage segment made me really want Sasha's mystery partner to be Devin Taylor. It would be pretty terrific if Dana's condescending headpats have secretly been building to Devin taking her to the woodshed. I don't know how good Devin's wrestling is, but I know she wrestles at house shows fairly often. It…
