Who realized Cyber Monday had become such an event as to warrant a day's delay from Diamond?

Ron, I gotta get the childish comment in before actually addressing your article: "If you like Rob Leifeld so much, why don't you marry him?" Just kidding. I'll agree with you that art is subjective. How can I not? I've written before about how much I enjoy Karl Moline, especially whis Buffyverse work, while the whole Ifanboy crew finds it to be servicable at best. To each his own...

Thanks, Paul. Another fine article. "The Chain" made me cry the first time I read it. And the second time. And the third. I think I can get through it now without tearing up, but since I've seen "The Body" a half-dozen times and can't make to the end ... well fuck, I'm getting weepy just thinking about it. Same as when I think about Giant Size Astonishing #1. Joss just kno...

Ron, I too am a hardcover addict. If it's worth keeping, it's worth keeping in as nice a format as possible. I've started getting some real obscure older stuff of mine colleceted in library bindings, too. It's not like anyone is ever going to put Starslayer out in HC  - or trade, for that matter - any time soon.   And @TNC: They're called slipcovers. Real books have them. When you ...

Well done Gentlemen, well done. And as a kinda related aside question, do you have a contingency plan ready in case the Revision 3 show gets the axe? The video show is a highlight of my week and I'd hate to see it go the way of Internet Superstar or, worse yet, Geekdrome (where you can't even find archived episodes). Enquiring minds want to know. Here's to the next million downloads, gentle...

Good article. Good points, all. I have a pretty good amount of digital comics. Most are legitimate, i.e. the complete ASM, FF, Avengers, X-Men, and FF on DVD. Those came to about $200 on Amazon and I ended up with 45 years of the Marvel heavy hitters. That deal can not be beat. If DC came along and did that I'd spring for the trinity books, even though I don't particually care for them, if on...

Hmmm, I'm having a real hard time getting into this episode. Just like the last four or five. I mean, I'm still watching, but I'm also web surfing, running some PC utilities, and sorting DVDs at the same time.   Oh, and now some kid with eyeliner has shown up. To get killed. By Skylar. Set up by Veronica Mars and that dude from Falcon Crest or Dynasty or whatever.  And the Jackie B...

Ben Franklin was the man. There's a reason why he's the face of the $100 bill: he was a God among men. So sure, go ahead and punch him inna face. And then face the wrath of a well and truly P.O.ed Founding Father from Philly! Er, kinda went off the rails there. As for comics, Walking Dead and ASM are pretty solid picks. Also looking forward to picking up that Hellboy Library Ed. v. 2, now tha...

Amen, brother

Thanks for reminding me about this drink, Chris. I'm a coffee freak too, a big fan of licorice and like vodka just fine. So I've always liked this one but hadn't had one in forever - few bars in my area have the espresso capability - and just forgot about it. Now that I've got the constituent ingredients at home - Ouzo, homemade vanilla infused Grey Goose and a new-ish Krupps espesso machine...
