Thanksgiving is a wonderful opportunity to bury all that White Liberal Guilt under a heaping mound of turkey or whatever turns you on.  Happy Holidays, all!

One book?  That can't be right...

I'm really starting to get into Ellis's Avatar work.  I read Black Summer a couple of weeks ago and loved it.  Criminally underrated.  So far I've enjoyed No Hero as well.  I read the first issue of Anna Mercury and wasn't too sure where it's taking me, so I'll wait for the trade.  Bought Black Gas this weekend but haven't had a chance to crack it open.  His Ava...

@ohcaroline  Good one! If I were alone with Dave Lapham in an elevator or in a dark alley I would be very, very afraid.  I LOVE Young Liars, even though I'm not exactly sure I'm experiencing what Lapham is intending me to.  What a weird, wonderful book!

I'm thinking I fist started downloading in the early teens so I'm personally responsible for over a hundred fifty all by myself, and I'm not even counting all the referrals.  I'd like to congratulate myself on a job well done.  I'm pretty aweome. Oh, and congratulations to the iFanboys as well.

When I want to get the creative juices flowing I read Cormac McCarthy.  He just throws all the shit on paper and lets God sort it out.  It also helps that he's brilliant, which I am not.  It gets me in the mindset that I don't need to agonize over every sentence.  Just write something and see what happens.  This may or may not resemble his approach in any way, but that...

God, for a second there I thought that Reed/Spidey exhange was real dialogue from the comic.  I threw up on my computer!  Good stuff!

I deliberately poked out my own eyes after seeing the Plastic Man costume.  I just finished watching "You Don't Mess with the Zohan" and exposure to too much man-shapes drove me mad.* *Which I regret doing because they tell me Sonia looked nice.  Plus, I can no longer work or drive.
