Immortal Hulk
I just finished issues 1-20 of Immortal Hulk by Al Ewing and Joe Bennett. It was most excellent, rather horrific for a superhero comic. It was more violent and gross than most stuff Marvel puts out, but I liked it.… Continue Reading

Sad Dad Bands
I just read this hilarious article on what your favorite Sad Dad Band says about you. Although my favorite band on the list is the New Pornographers, I’m definitely not someone who can build a fence. I think I’m closer… Continue Reading
