A friend recently tipped me off that issue #19 of Sensation Comics featuring Wonder Woman, “Rescue Angel part 1 of 1,” was right up my alley and not to be missed. Wonder Woman? Really? I was quite sceptical, but this comic completely won me over by the end. And by that I mean I cried….

What's the Secret? Secret Six is Back!
Yes, fan-favourite Secret Six has been rebooted. What does this mean? Well, seems that it means that all those characters you knew and loved and wanted to see more of are…. Gone. That arc is done. No more Deadshot, no more Scandal/Lianna, no more Bane, NO MORE RAGDOLL. Wait, what? Why bother bringing it back…
5 Fandom Friday: Fandom Resolutions
I’m not like, 100% sure what a “fandom resolution” is yet, so I may be wayyy off base here in my list, but I’m also really excited to see how everyone else interpreted the prompt! On with the Five! 1. Watch more Classic Doctor Who (2, 3, and 5) because I loooove me some Tom…
Currently…in January 2015
FEELING: I’m currently in the middle of Winter Break from school and I could absolutely get used to this! I can’t believe I’m sleeping in until after the sun rises (SO BRIGHT!). WATCHING: I’m still working my way through recent seasons of Law & Order: SVU! When I have time, I’d love to watch more…
Batgirl #37: Gaga for Banksy
I’m gonna say it, I think Batgirl #37 was the best Burnside Batgirl issue yet! You know that saying, don’t judge a book by its cover? That absolutely applies here. The first few pages are definitely…a little off-putting. Selfie! Kawaii! Poker face! Erm, yeah, maybe not… Not at first, anyway. Then slowly, subtly, the issue…
5 Fandom Friday: Blogging Resolutions
There’s always room for improvement! And while I’ve been mostly pleased with my commitment to my blog this year, I have some clear ideas of how to improve it for next year: 1. MOAR PICTURES I’ve been pretty lax about picture-taking in general, and I love looking at other blogs with juicy pictures of REAL…
Batman: Endgame
Confession: I’m getting kind of tired of the Joker. I got through Death of the Family but just barely: those rambling romantic Batman/Joker dialogues nearly lost me forever. But when a friend tipped me off that Batman: Endgame was going to be epic, I had to check it out. My first impression was…not the best….
5 Fandom Friday: Black Friday
First, a word: this is my hypothetical list. I do not condone IN ANY WAY the further abuse of retail workers around the holidays by participating in “Black Friday” or worse, “Black Thursday,” wherein not even the holiday itself is sacred. Not that it really ever was, but try to keep in mind that there…
Batgirl #36: So Close…
Welcome to another installment of my conflicting feelings towards the newest run of Batgirl. My feelings continue to be all over the map. With issue #35, I had a strange apathy towards the comic. I wasn’t sure whether or not to like it. When I heard buzz that issue #36 was “even better,” I knew…
5 Fandom Friday: Fictional Friendsgiving
1. Hagrid seems like he knows how to bring the party, huh? I imagine he wouldn’t be the easiest party guest to have (possibly breaking chairs and all) but I don’t stand on formality. 2. Ralph Dibney might otherwise spend the holiday alone, what with the whole…Identity Crisis incidents and all. If your heart doesn’t…
5 Fandom Friday: Get Smart
Five Fandom Friday has been going on for over a month now thanks to The Nerdy Girlie and SuperSpaceChick. This week we’re talking about our top five smartphone apps…I expect to see some good recommendations here! 1. Instagram I think the first app I downloaded when I got my phone as a Christmas present like…
We Have To Talk About Batgirl
I know I’m tardy to the party here, but I just – *just* got my hands on Batgirl #35 – the now infamous “new Batgirl” – and am desperate to have discussion about it. See, I have two friends – both dudes – one who hated it and the other liked it. I’m inclined to…
