Ravaged a lot of candy this year with young Peter Quill...

Well, I think it’s safe to assume that everyone gets around in flying cars and lives in houses on top of impossibly tall towers because the ice caps are gone and we’re basically Waterworld.

We did an episode of Uncanny County (a podcast of paranormally-themed audio plays) called “Coulrophobia” - all about the VERY REASONABLE AND RATIONAL FEAR of clowns...

The crowd looks even bigger when he puts his hands up next to the picture.

I’d open an indie film/tv studio and make cool, original geek-friendly projects, starting with a tv version of our upcoming podcast, @UncannyCounty.

Where is Antboy? Not a great film, but definitely a superhero flick.

Working on “Uncanny County”, a new series of anthology-style tales of the paranormal (modern radio plays), lots of black comedy, mixed with straight-up sci-fi. We launch in October, but are deep in production and spreading updates and other weirdness on Twitter (@UncannyCounty).

I've heard consistently that it is great, but I just couldn't get into it. I'm sure I'll give it another shot somewhere down the line.

Just couldn't get into it, ya know?

I know - all I could think was, "It was the 6th Doctor, wasn't it. I'll bet it was the 6th."

The Martian was fantastic - I tore through it!

Currently reading Dark Eden by Chris Beckett. Recently finished California Bones by Greg Van Eekhout, The Girl With All the Gifts by M.R. Carey and Tomorrow and Tomorrow by Thomas Sweterlistch, among others. It's been a fantastic summer for reading, thanks in a large part to recommendations I've received from articles…

I just want to say thanks for these amazing lists of both new and unsung books. I have read some terrific stuff (The Girl With All The Gifts, California Bones, The Girl Who Would Be King) the past couple of months and full credit goes to you and the rest of the io9 crew. So thank you!

I'm in the midst of this series right now. Totally digging it.

Here's my top choice for a rebooted Indy:

I just read the Atrocity Archives and could not agree more about the Laundry Files. It's perfect for TV.

Venture Bros. Season One Finale. It would have been a perfectly bizarre and amazingly dark ending had the show not gotten a second season. But as a season finale, it set up the show's creators to spin it into a truly amazing and even more bizarre twisted reality that fit perfectly with everything that had gone before.

American Gods is terrific. One of my all-time favorites.

Just started this and am loving every word.

It's not that I need him to be huge and ripped, but the actor's portrayal makes him feel soft and weak to me. I think that's partially due to them keeping his "look" costume and facial hair wise, but not body type wise. In the comic, Abraham comes in as another potential leader type, and I don't get that from this guy…
