Forgive me for being a pedantic comic book nerd, but Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Gaydos created Jessica Jones. Melissa Rosenberg adapted the character for television.

All of our computers were about to crash and return us to the Stone Age, it was a difficult time.

I’ve love to see more in-depth articles about music released in 1998. Mezzanine was the best album of the year. Ray of Light was the pinnacle of Madonna’s career (damn, has that been a steep fall). Aquemini is certainly worthy of more than a mention here.

Y’all crazy! Little Earthquakes is Tori’s best.... by a longshot!

“Too Close” was actually released in 1997. :(

Mezzanine is a stone-cold masterpiece, but Wiki says it charted on the U.S. Billboard 200 so it doesn’t qualify for this column per the “Off the Charts” rules.

Yeh, that year-end list doesn’t make any sense. 1998 was also the year of Cher’s “Believe,” Madonna’s “Ray of Light” and Aerosmith’s “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing.” Those were monster hits, how are they not in the year-end top 20?

I think I spent most of 1998 in a K-hole. Great year for underground dance music like Razor n Guido’s “Do It Again,” Funky Green Dog’s “Body” and Ultra Nate’s “Found a Cure.”

Hot take:

Oh, I’ve actually heard of Comixology... will check that out! Thank you

I haven’t bought a comic book since, uh, the last time DC/Vertigo tried to revive The Sandman. It was a disaster because Gaiman couldn’t meet his deadlines, and by the time a new issue was published I’d completely forgotten about it.

Jakes Shears’ solo album is out today. It’s a bit jangly for my tastes, but his voice is amazing as always.

It was a flying man on a flaming pie.

Sorry, kiddos, but this is one of those stories that’s mostly fabricated, and the world’s media keeps publishing it without bothering to do any actual reporting.

But The Beatles name is about bugs. They came up with the name as a response to Buddy Holly and the Crickets. They just changed the spelling to make a pun on beat.

Believe it or not, of all the dumb shit this guy says, this one may be the most grounded in reality. “Chicken” really is a commonly used word among gay men of a certain generation to describe much younger men. Used in a sentence: “I went to a pool party at Bryan Singer’s house, and it was all chicken.”

EW interviewed that showrunner, who said Poe may be back. He’s all I care about tbh.

That we know of.

Amphibiincel.

Yes, and it was designed by an ambitious young animator named John Lasseter.
