- First off, I've been working on Chunklet's upcoming book, and am now writing for their website.
- Isis is disbanding. You can read about it and download some live stuff on www.chunklet.com (damn, I'm smooth).
- Da Blackhawks are still awesome. More on that in a couple weeks.
- LOST ended. I liked it.
- Ronnie James Dio died last week. That sucks. Go find some videos on www.youtube.com.
- Iron Man 2 is really good. Although the first was a lot better, and Terrance Howard was a much better Rhodey.
- Shade the Changing Man is going to be in upcoming issues of Hellblazer. Shade is one of my favorite Vertigo series, and I'm excited to see Peter Milligan writing the character again for the first time in seven years (there was a short story in the Vertigo tenth anniversary book).
- Free Comic Book Day sucks. I know it's basically advertisements disguised as free comics, but can't anyone put out something worth reading? I give Image credit for putting out Savage Dragon 146 last year. It's something comic readers would want. And Marvel prints out books with smaller dimensions. You're owned by Disney and you can't put out a full-sized comic book like everyone else (including tiny indie companies)? Fuck you!
- Lastly, I have a stack of books that I picked to write about as Book of the Weeks. I'm just going to list them. They're all good. Look at the companies' websites if you want synopses. I should be getting the past couple of weeks' books soon, and will write full reviews on them:
3-31-10: Punisher 15 (Marvel)
4-07-10: S.H.I.E.L.D. 1 (Marvel)
4-14-10: Punishermax 6 (Marvel/Max)
4-21-10: American Vampire 2 (DC/Vertigo)
4-28-10: Fantastic Four 578 (Marvel)
5-01-10: Iron Man Thor (Marvel)
5-05-10: Hellboy in Mexico (Dark Horse)
