[It's been a month already, so here's last month's essay from the Comix Experience newsletter. For all who read this and live in San Francisco: Just go to Comix Experience on Divisadero and pick up the newsletter to get these in a little more timely fashion (as well as Previews written by me as well). [...]
[It's another weekend of working insanely hard, so here's the essay from last month's Comix Experience newsletter so that we don't fall into another long run of radio silence here.]
It feels like it’s been awhile since we last talked - Wasn’t it a year ago? - and as always happens during the holiday season, all [...]
(For the first - and probably last - time ever, I’m running an Ono essay while it’s still available in Comix Experience’s newsletter at the store in San Francisco. Normally, I wait until the new one is out, but this ceases to be topical… well, a few days ago really, but definitely today, so I [...]
(It’s Onomatoepeia weekend again, so while I’m working on that, here’s last month’s essay.)
Who isn’t excited about Marvel’s new mega-event, Siege (AKA The Story That Made JMS Leave Thor Because He Didn’t Want To Write A Crossover Into The Book, but marketing suggested that that was perhaps a little long to fit comfortably on covers)? [...]
(If it’s a weekend where I’m doing io9 - including the 5 US Presidents Who Could Save Us From An Alien Invasion, thankyouverymuch - as well as the Comix Experience newsletter, then it’s a weekend where I’m far too slammed to come up with blog content. Which’ll explain why there was nothing yesterday (Sorry, all), [...]
(Because at least part of this weekend was spent writing the Onomatoepia newsletter, here’s the essay from last month’s, as way of apology.)
It should be noted, even though the world collectively forgot to be shocked by the news at the time, that Spider-Man: Turn Out The Dark (also known as “That Spider-Man Musical With The [...]
(While I spend this weekend writing the new Onomatoepeia, here’s last month’s.)
As I type this, I am ignoring the warning being delivered - in an entirely bored and unconvincing manner - by an air stewardess, telling us that the fasten seatbelt signs are no longer illuminated despite the fact that her announcement was interrupted by [...]
(June’s Onomatoepeia essay, written concurrently with this io9.com post; as you can see, I was obsessed.)
Can we, for a second, talk about this whole Captain America: Reborn thing? Thanks.
For those who don’t have an internet connection and/or obsessively live online in fear of accidentally missing the next big news story that is much less actual [...]
(Onomatoepeia time again - This is from May.)
Color me unsurprised to read that DC head honcho Dan Didio is telling interviewers that their summer event Blackest Night will have far-reaching consequences for the DC Universe, including the deaths of some fan-favorite characters, especially considering that the whole thing is about dead people coming back to [...]
(Yet another Onomatoepeia essay - This one, let’s charitably say, from March.)
Hey.
Mebbe youse guys remember me. Names’s Peter Petruski, and yeah, yeah, I know that sounds like that guy offa that Heroes show on TV that everyone useta watch, but I was there first, awright? Anyway, youse aren’t supposeta know my real name, oh no. [...]
