That is a Blue Moon. A day late, because I've been busy playing with my new kitten, so let's get this show on the road! Green Lantern #43 The Unwritten #3 Wednesday Comics ... http://www.nerderyblog.com/2009/07/09/comic-reviews-07-08-09/ I know that everybody and their dog is excited for Blackest Night. I'm not.  I really couldn't care less. The zero issue was boring and the prologue in today's Green Lantern #43 didn't hold my interest long enough to finish the issue. You know what really bugs me?  We all know Batman/Bruce Wayne ... http://www.nerderyblog.com/2009/07/08/i-could-not-care-less-about-blackest-night/ The other day my friend, Sam, suggested we go see a movie.  We'd just finished dinner and the only movie that started in less than two hours was Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen. It was awful. I don't have to sit here and tell you, you've read the reviews.  Maybe you ... http://www.nerderyblog.com/2009/07/02/a-brief-transformers-2-revenge-of-the-fallen-review/ Comic Reviews: 07-01-09 A pretty big week in comics, one might say: Captain America: Reborn and a new Justice League limited run series, a week after McDuffie's exit. They also offer some new issues of some of Marvel's and DC's unique limited series. Since I don't have much to say this ... http://www.nerderyblog.com/2009/07/01/comic-reviews-07-01-09/ I'm not editing this. I saw this movie in 7th grade, on VHS, in the basement of my friend's house. I vaguely remember having no idea what the fuck was going on. This movie, to me, should have NEVER been made, but the earth is better for it. I vaguely remember ... http://www.nerderyblog.com/2009/06/26/drunk-reviews-from-dusk-till-dawn/ My Star Trek/X-Men crossover retrospective is up at Needcoffee.com.  Bask in my self-mockery! http://www.nerderyblog.com/2009/06/25/shameless-self-promotion/ It is a normal part of my weekly comic reading habits to arrange my weekly purchases in order of what I guess to be least-to-most good. This way, my reading will be progressively enjoyable. I do this rather arbitrarily based on previous reading enjoyment, currently plots, and covers. This week, ... http://www.nerderyblog.com/2009/06/24/comic-reviews-06-24-09/ Here's "Weird Al" Yankovic's new video. http://www.nerderyblog.com/2009/06/17/because-im-that-nerdy/ [caption id="" align="alignleft" width="271" caption="Operation: Rebirth Page 1"][/caption] Writer Ed Brubaker killed Captain America two years ago in the aftermath of Civil War.  Since then, fans have wondered how and when Steve Rogers is coming from the dead (a given, considering the revolving door on Superhero Heaven and the impending movie).
