Ramblings and previews

Not much time left in the year, so I'll spare you lot a hastily written article.

In 2018 we can look forward to a few things. The Horror Countdown will shamble forth again, as well as Bring on the Bad Guys. There'll be horror hosts aplenty and a few more reviews (and the Summer of Love(craft) shall rise from the deep for the third and for now final time).

Some more art, maybe. Chills, thrills, and maybe a few conventions if we're all lucky. Possibly even some pro wrestling, but we'll see.

In any event, time to watch a bunch of freezing people watch a lighted ball drop. Good luck and happy trails folks.

The Big City: Or Why I Don't Write for a Living

Having only recently discovered the film Streets of Fire, I was quite taken with director Walter Hill's version of a rock and roll fable. You can only imagine my surprise when I read that Hill intended to make a trilogy, but the lackluster profit of the film killed those ideas.

So I thought why not take a crack at it?

Temple of Doom: Or Why I don't Write for a Living

Merry Christmas and all assorted holiday and holy days.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull gets a lot of flak, but I personally never saw the point of Temple of Doom. Why make it a prequel? And why make Willie Scott the most irritating character in the film?

So, as an early Christmas gift from me to all of you, what would happen if I could slip back to the early 80's?

Nouveau 52, part 8

Winding down a bit, but there might be a question about some of the other heroes. DC's always been big on buying out other companies, so where would they be in my take on the 52?

Nouveau 52, part 7

Main books are out of the way, as are the teens. So why not take a trip to the EDGE?

Nouveau 52, part 6

Now that we've finished the JLA and Trinity section, what about the rest of the DCU?

So let's take a look at the Young Justice section and see the heroes of tomorrow!

Nouveau 52, part 5

Still on the Justice League kick.

Nouveau 52, part 4

We did the trilogy, so how about the rest of the Justice League series? Or least the first half.
