And frankly, it looks like a PIECE OF SHIT From The Daily Blam! You can half-way understand when a Powerless Comic Book Company has no say in how their characters will be interpreted on film.

Random Rants™! are rants too tiny to warrant their own post but still significant (IMO) to be mentioned. As my schedule ebbs or grows, this feature will also allow me to throw something out to the blogosphere– without investing two hours in it. Think Tweets– with hopefully a little more meat.

A lot of what is about to happen in the Spider-man books is all rumor and conjecture. As Dan Slott takes over as the sole writer of Amazing Spider-man with issue #648, there seems to be at least ONE costume change (if not THREE) and some “gadgets” (whatever in the hell that means) that will [...]

This is NOT a true story! Did I ever tell you that after all those one night stands, Peter Parker has the Herpes? I know, right? Logically, if he was gonna get it from anybody– it most assuredly would’ve been the Black Cat. But NO – the culprit’s gonna be Mary Jane Watson Parker. Yep. [...]

IT’S QUITE SIMPLE, REALLY The good guys at CCW*TV– comic retailer par excellence Jose Melendez and comic writer extraordinaire Elliott Serrano– are very high on the obvious talents of one Mr. Jeff Parker.
