Vader was cool to initial audiences because the whole experience was groundbreaking for them. His presence in ANH is bolstered by all the awesomeness going on and his striking design. His visual and auditory makeup is, well, impressive. However, he’s little more than the chief thug with space wizard powers, built up…

See, that’s the thing- he wears the helmet because he feels out of synch with his face, to thr point where he only takes off the mask to unnerv someone.

“Happy Endings” Margaret Atwood

Everyone turns into a zombie when they die, regardless of the manner of death, unless their head is crushed or decapitated.

Worst of all? This was the text:

Eh, Crystal Star is still a far, far greater crime against humanity than Courtship ever was.

Ok! (All names changed to protect privacy) When I was 11, my very good friend Jane passed away after an awful several year battle with cancer. Among our group of friends, I was the only one who stuck around (not blaming anyone, we are in 5th grade, ffs) at the last painful bout and I held her hand at hospice hours…

A couple of weeks ago I had some randoms come in while i happened to be at the hosting desk. It was a sunday, and IM CATHOLIC BUT I WAS STILL LIKE, OH GOD NO when they started off with, “So we noticed you aren’t in church right now...”

I find the unrelenting passage of time to be alarming as well so I’m going to have to side with the police on this one.

I own 3 stethoscopes, and used all of them during the course of my bedside nursing career. I bought the first one when I was accepted into nursing school, since it was part of the “required uniform” for student nurses. If I showed up to clinicals without it, I would be sent home. When I graduated and accepted a…

I also think poor people are socialized to think they’re not good enough to deserve a living wage.

It is TOTALLY a gender issue. Nobody bullies boys these days for liking Star Wars and Marvel heroes. They are the two most popular franchises by a mile amongst elementary school boys. But when a girl that age likes them, she’s a freak and an open target for bullying that ranges from ostracism to name calling and…

True story: The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl #1 was the first new Marvel comic book I’ve ever bought and read. I’ve loved Ryan North and his work for years, from Dinosaur Comics to The Midas Flesh, from Machine of Death to To Be or Not To Be: That is the Adventure. I was only vaguely familiar with Squirrel Girl, but I was…

Now one for all the fashion gals — the REAL Hervé Leger (who now designs under the name Hervé L Leroux because when BCBG bought his company and ousted him, they took the rights to his name) is one of the kindest people in fashion. He designs gorgeous dresses for ALL women and says his life’s work has been about making…

I have done months of inpatient and outpatient therapy in the past about military sexual assault over three years ago, and I was shopping for a therapist six months ago for other reasons completely unrelated to assault. When she asked me about assault history, I asked her if she knew what rape situations were like in…

Obaji is no joke. It makes your skin look like shit for the first few weeks but then suddenly, you wake up one morning, and its like your skin is brand new. I didnt use the anti aging one that she has, but the acne one and it really does work. Also, the BEST skin care duo that is relatively cheap is hyaluronic serum…

I’d give this a million stars if I could. You’re spot on all accounts. There are instances where people will look at your pitch without art, but it’s very, very rare in the industry. And yes, you’re doing a lot of markting as the writer, but your artist is your partner. It’s your story together, the two of you.

Should also be noted that they’re giving emerging talent a shot! Artists AND writers, seperately! Which is not something you can say about Image nowadays.
