PyCon 2010

johosaphats — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 03:04:11 +0000

Had a great time at PyCon last weekend in Atlanta, and learned about a lot of cool technologies that I should be using. Stuff like MongoDB, Pyro, and Haystack are definitely going to finding their way into some projects I'm working on.

Thanks to all the people who put it together and keep it running, I'll definitely be back next year.

If you're looking for something outside of the normal superhero comic, 1001 Arabian Nights from Zenescope is definitely worth a read. I'll write more later, but for now, I'm just trying to move the current top post down.

The Gnome-Mobile (1967)

The Gnome-Mobile is a late 60s Disney movie that I hadn't heard of before a few days ago, nor would I have probably cared about it. Apparently, the hideous looking children are the same hideous children from Mary Poppins (and are even billed as "The Children from Mary Poppins). But then, I watched it and realized that Walt Disney inspired the 1970s pimp look and I was hooked.

Basically, a young gnome is looking for a girlfriend gnome and ends up finding a gnome brothel and is forced to take part in what can only be described as every man's fantasy...getting greased up and being chased around by a bunch of half naked women. From my 3 seconds of internet research, the kid from Mary Poppins never left the gnome brothel, as he was never seen in movies again.

Watch the Japanese Spider-Man TV Series on Marvel.com

This came out in the 1970s in Japan, and is definitely a must see!

X-Force: Angels and Demons

johosaphats — Sat, 31 Jan 2009 06:30:07 +0000

The X-Men need a black ops team to handle some of their more dangerous missions, so who do they turn to? Some of the most lethal mutants around: Wolverine, X-23, Warpath, and Wolfsbane. This new series punches you in the face with action, and while the main X-Men group doesn't kill, these guys don't hold back.

Originally published as Marvel Graphic Novel #5, God Loves, Man Kills is a must read for any X-Men fan, or for anyone who wants to get started reading any of the X-Men related series. Written by Chris Claremont, the preeminent X-Men writer, the story is the background for most of the X-Men series, as well as the basis for the movie X2: X-Men United. This book will answer most of your questions about the history of one of the most popular teams in comic history.
