I should point out the rules for these posts. I don’t think I’ve ever done it before!
I still yearn for a good comic to read for these posts. This week, I get my wish! It’s a Festivus miracle! After the past few weeks, it’s a welcome change.

Doctor Week, Day Seven! In fact, Doctor Week has been so awesome, I think I’m going to extend it two more days. But after that… it’s the biggest event of the year so far, man. Watch out!
Today: A baddie so cool it forced me to rap.

Leonard Doctor Week Part Six! Today’s Doctor certainly deserves to be featured on a Friday. I’d rather it be the Friday two weeks from now, but hey, this week is Doctor Week.
Also, the handy dandy 365 Reasons Archive has been updated again. Onwards!

Okay. With the Emerald City Con happening this weekend I got caught behind the 8-ball, column-wise. Pol essentially already did the column idea I was playing with for this week (if you MUST know what it was going to be, I can tell you it pretty much would have been an expanded version of what […]
What I bought - 28 March 2007
- by Greg Burgas

A good chunk of books this week, including a mediocre offering from one of the best titles out there (surprisingly enough), plus the comic I bought based on what you guys told me. And Dean Motter and Michael Lark have a comic this week! Uh, except they’re not working on the same one together. That […]

Doctor Week: Part Five! An apple a day won’t keep this doctor away. Normally, I would drop a hint or two in the header here as to who the featured person/character of the day is, but frankly, I’m too pulped out. …oops.

Analogy Munky talks crap, or, ‘The Superhero as Playground Equipment’

A little while ago, I was waffling on (as is my wont) on the topic of the inherent ‘darkness’ of magical do-gooders who wear brightly coloured costumes and fight monsters, when my brane wandered down a previously unexplored pathway and came up with this.
Many of you may have already read it, but here it […]

Doctor Week: Day Four! It’s the one you’ve all been waiting for, trust me. The greatest doctor in all of comics is making a house call today.

Storytelling Engines: Tomb of Dracula
(or “Good, Bad…I’m The Guy With The Fangs”)
Let’s start this out with a little mental exercise, a little game of “Let’s Pretend.” Let’s pretend you’re Marv Wolfman, and you’ve just been handed the writing assignment […]

The Revenge of the Garton - Starting Them Young!

I received a comic a little while ago from a young gentlemen named Tim from New Jersey. Tim is in the third grade, and he sent me his comic titled The Revenge of the Garton (or Gantor or Gartor or even maybe Ganton). It was an interesting first effort for Tim and I’m glad he […]
Ghost Rider Movie Contests Are Bad

I can’t believe I forgot to mention this before! Remember that movie ticket giveaway thing I had awhile back? Well, at least one of the winners didn’t get a movie ticket out of it, but instead received, like, a Ghost Rider hat or something like that. I thought that was absurd, so I wrote to […]

And now for something completely different: reviews of sequential art books longer than individual, monthly-produced single issues! I know: can you handle the excitement?
