Epic Fail, Part III

Enter: Nite Owl, who apparently spent half a billion dollars on the Owlship alone, all to give him an excuse to indulge his spandex-on-spandex fetish with similarly unbalanced chicks. Looked at correctly, he’s one feathery cape away from being a fucking furry. [read more at link] Continue reading

Epic Fail, Part II

These are pictures I snapped around my house just before I sat down to write this. There’s no picture of my first print actual issues of Watchmen because I’m too hung over to be digging through twenty-five longboxes to find them. I’m showing you these to prove something to you, and it’s not just that I found it impossible to get laid in high school.

There are two things in this world that I know backwards and forwards: where to get Internet porn, and Watchmen. And until somebody makes a 100 million dollar movie about the other one (Which would be impossible. It wouldn’t cost one million to make a movie that lasts fifteen seconds where you already know how it ends. Even if you shot it in iMax. Which I do not recommend. I’m digressing again, aren’t I?), you’re gonna have to believe me when I tell you that you’re on my turf here… and that you will not like it. [read more at link] Continue reading

You finally get your hands on the [comic] book, and as you’re checking the cover to see who drew it you notice the price and fuck me sideways, they want four dollars? For a fucking twenty-four page magazine?

Nerd Prom 2008 Wrapup, Part 2: Final Crisis

The other major negative thing about Comic Con that it’s easy to forget just how Goddamned exhausting it is. The other day I used the term “fatigue hysteria”, and it’s not just some clever hyperbole. By Sunday at Comic Con, you begin to see more and more stretchers steered by paramedics being pushed around the convention center, and they no longer appear amused by my desperate puling for morphine… [read more at link] Continue reading

Nerd Prom 2008 Wrapup, Part 1: This Convention Would Be Great If It Weren’t For The Fucking Conventioners

It’s over now, and I am back in The American Jerk home office. I know this because I just went outside for a cigarette and, instead of San Diego Bay and the USS Midway, I saw a pile of my own cigarette butts in the street and the Salvation Army. Real life blows… [read more at link] Continue reading
