SAL-utations from GEEKS comics in Uptown Whittier!



Here's the skinny from last night's party at GEEKS comic shop on Greenleaf Ave., in the heart of Uptown Whittier.

Happy birthday, Sal, shop owner of GEEKS! He turned 33 on Monday, Feb. 1.

Thanks, JIM LUJAN, for the photos!

Dr. Fate and Hawkman: It's about dang time!


Dr. Fate and Hawkman and some dubious members of the Justice Society of America (Stargirl?? Huh??) finally reared their heads last night on the oft-delayed season premiere of SMALLVILLE. Wow, was that a long train coming.

The verdict: I could watch a weekly show about the badass Dr. Fate - they portrayed him just right. Hawkman, who is portrayed as some kind of badass, was a little iffy. But nice Martian Manhunter cameo, that was warped.

CW, give Dr. Fate his own show! Maybe he can have a girlfriend or a diary and appeal to the female teen viewers.

GREENBLATT THE GREAT! UPDATE: I just completed CARTOON FLOPHOUSE FEATURING GREENBLATT THE GREAT! # 3, which is off to the printer. It will be released later this year. Keep your peepers peeled to this blog for more deets.

And now, brothers and sisters, it's on to CF#4!

Wow, I've become a big fan of this man's work....


Currently reading my third book in a row by this author. A comic book adaptation led me to his actual novels.

So. much. FUN!

UP IN THE AIR (2009) movie review haiku



UP IN THE AIR

More "up" than "air," yo!
Clooney not so cartoony
It's about damn time!

WAR OF THE ROSES goes Oscar!

What's funny about the Oscar nominations is that James Cameron got the most nominations ---- 9 nominations for AVATAR...............and so did his ex-wife, Kathryn Bigelow, who directed HURT LOCKER.

What an Academy Awards showdown that will make --- two exes battling it out for the trophies! This time, it won't take a lawyer to divide their assets, only a jury of their peers.

By the way, did you notice the glaring Oscar omission? PAUL BLART MALL COP got robbed!
