It's right here! Via that guy I used to link but don't anymore because even I found it creepy and redundant after a while. You know the one. Chris S.
(Really, if everyone here isn't already reading www.the-isb.com, I have no idea what else I can do.)
The Best Comic Ever (This Week) (That I Bought)!
- by Brad Curran

Another strong field this week.* This time, it came down to two strong contenders with something in common. But only one can win. So I crunched the numbers, ran some simulations, flipped a coin, and picked the one with Spider-Man in it anyway.

Yeah, I'm annoyed/manic/bored, and am writing a lot again. So what? Wanna fight about it? Wanna fight about Family Guy references? Want a back rub? You are a demanding audience, if so.

So that's why they're doing a Frankencastle storyline. A+++++ A couple more thoughts under the fold.
The Best Comic EVER (This Week)!
- by Brad Curran
- Thursday, October 29th, 2009 at 3:37 PM EST
This was a damn good week for comics, if you ask me. Or even if you don't. I'll tell you anyway. Two Hickman comics (and two of the best issues of his runs on Secret Warriors and Fantastic Four, no less), Incredible Herc, the best issue of Rucka and Williams Detective Batwoman run so far [...]
Comic Book Gallimaufry: Gallimauferier!

Throw some things at the wall and see what sticks! It's time for me to jump back on the random thoughts bandwagon once again! It's also something of a cover/solicits review, so I'm ripping off more than one gimmick* for once! Get indignant if you don't like references to pro wrestling! Because I'm gonna make [...]

Ripping off Nevett for the name of my semi-regular collection of scatter shot thoughts on comics is more played than a footnote with a link to Chris Sims. I'm gonna start ripping off everyone's favorite defunct sports writing metacriticism sites instead. That should go over well!
"When Impulse Buys Get Out Of Control" Comics Review (With Spider-Man Supplemental!)
- by Brad Curran
- Saturday, October 3rd, 2009 at 2:16 PM EST
Or, see how Brad turned a "one comic in the pull box" week in to a bunch of crap to review, including more Spider-Man comics in one week than is healthy. Or, how's he's slowly becoming Burgas with less genre indie taste.
Short And Sweet Review For New Shang-Chi Master Of Kung Fu One Shot
- by Brad Curran
- Wednesday, September 30th, 2009 at 8:31 PM EST
It's awesome. Everyone should buy it, but especially Greg Hatcher, because it is pandering to him pretty heavily. But everyone should (hopefully) enjoy the lead story, by Jonathan Hickman and Kody Chamberlin, where Shang-Chi and Deadpool bond over hot dogs and something awesome happens frequently (at least every other panel; I'll have to re-read to [...]
This Can Go Here Because Ultimate Warrior Was In A Comic

This is better than that. And his wrestling career. And all six Star Wars movies. Possibly the Mona Lisa; I'll get back to you on that. It's sure better than every comic ever!
Girl Fights: Three Female Superhero Comics Reviewed
- by Brad Curran
- Friday, September 25th, 2009 at 12:44 PM EST
Hey, a theme! I'm not letting that get away! Especially since I have never before bought (and may never again buy) three superhero comics starring two women, a woman who calls herself a girl, and a faceless zen Latina in the same week. Have to take advantage of that sort of thing.

Or, why 15 epilogues isn't so great a reading experience.
Randomest Thoughts: I Win!

Now that that's over, and Nevett is soundly drubbed and crying in the corner, here's some crap I can't be bothered to find a unifying them for. So, yeah, it's every post I've ever done ever. Get something to drink! Hydration is important!
Dear Mark Waid RE: Brave, Bold Back Issues

inspired by the other great Mark in comics, I picked up a bunch of your Brave and the Bold run recently. Here are some thoughts.
