Review time! with ‘Teeter Topple’
I’ve been a fan of Karl Slominski’s work for some time now, so here we have his latest graphic novel for perusal!
On Louis CK
From the people I’ve talked to about this, it seems like CK’s apology was a lot better received by men than it was by women.

So, presented once again. From the archives, a tale of terror… the weekend when Julie met my mother.
Mac Review: Wonder Woman

Some time later, I found myself parked on a naugahyde couch awaiting my turn in the barber’s chair, when my eyes fell upon the cover of Uncanny X-Men #29. This was my introduction to both the Marvel Universe and its best writer, Roy Thomas.
