Superyan

Name: Ryan Neiport

So I guess this is where I put down a little bit about myself.  Where to start?  I guess obviously from my name and avatar, I'm a Superman fan.  I have been for most of my life.  When I was little, I used to wear my Supes suit wherever I went.  I had the spit curl and everything.  I didn't really start to collect comics until high school.  Back then, in the 90s is when the big boom was happenning.  I got on board a little before the Death of Superman and rode the comics train until college.  I collected everything from DC, Marvel, and Image. But I was always a DC guy.  I gave up on comics in college for more important things like girls.  After college, I got back into the comics world initially via the WB's Smallville in 2001.  A couple years later, the rumblings of a new Batman movie and Superman movie began.  After seeing early pics for Batman Begins, I decided to go back to a new local comic shop.  At the time, the Hush storyline caught my eye.  I got that and vowed that I would ONLY follow Superman and Batman comics cuz I couldn't afford more.  Then I discovered Identity Crisis!  Damn you Brad Meltzer!  That's when I was hooked again.  Ever since then I've been buying just about every DC comic that they release.  But again, I vowed to only buy DC.  But then came Brand New Day...  Damn you Marvel guys!  You've sucked me in again!  And now with one of my faves from DC, Jeph Loeb there, they've sucked me into the Hulk?!?  Thanks!  Well, thats a brief, but longer than I wanted to write history on my comics life.  I'm fully sucked into the DC and Marvel Universes once again.  So now,  my main problem is where the hell do I put all these damn books!?

Michael Turner Has Passed Away

This is sad news.  I've always liked his art.  I was lucky enough to meet him at last year's Pittsburgh Comicon.  He didn't make it this year.  He seemed like a genuinely nice guy.  My thoughts and prayers are with his family.  He will be missed.  He left us too soon.  RIP

I never read the book, but this flick was awesome!  Tons of action, some humor and great effects too!  And Jolie has never been hotter!  This was fun!

I WANT(ed) my New Comics for 06/23/08!

On Jun 23, 2008 6:00 PM

Most looking forward to Final Crisis #2 and James Robinson's first Superman #677!  And it looks like JR writing has got Josh on board the Man of Steel!  Now, whats keeping ya away from Action?  BQ: The proposed steaming turd of a Justice League movie that will hopefully never be made now.  That was just odd from the start!
