A Look at 'Justice League' - Part One

Good article.  Went into a lot of depth.  The first season is a bit uneven, but IMO, it really gets going strong after that.  What annoyed me the most in the first season (and most of the second) is the rather boring way that GL uses his ring.  It is all shields/bubbles and force blasts.  I understand the "military mindset" argument, but come on.  Someon...

Comic Sales: Nobody Knows Anything

Excellent article.  My father is an accountant and every year when we sit to do my taxes, he jokes with me and says "It's just numbers.  We can make them say whatever we want."  To which I reply, "Make them say I'm not going to jail."  And I'm still a free man.  As for the death of the industry, I turn to Billy Joel, who has this to say.  &qu...

Very persuasive article.  Sometimes it's easy to forget that there are two sides (at least) to everything.  Well done.  Let's up the ante, though.  Topic for next article:  In defense of Rob Liefeld's ankle depictions. ;)

 My LCS is run by a friend of mine, so I hang out on Wednesday and read some books.  I use the CSN as a divider.  Books I have read go behind the CSN, books still to be read go in front.  Other than that, I have very little use for it either.
