I Got a Nintendo WII

And it's seriously the raddest thing ever. It took me forever to find one, but I love it and am in geek heaven.

Speaking of... I think I will go play it right now.

The Hills Are Alive

And not with the sound of music (boring), but with the sound of murder, madness, and mayhem! We’re getting close to the release of the second graphic novel from Fox Atomic Comics, The Hills Have Eyes: The Beginning, releasing in bookstores everywhere on July 3rd! Written by industry vets Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray, with exceptional art by John Higgins, this book is a canonical prequel to the re-makes of both Hills Have Eyes 1 and 2. I love this book, and if you’re a Hills or horror fan you will as well! Check out some of the love we’re already receiving:

PS - I technically posted this yesterday, but the bloody thing didn't show up! Technology; gotta love it.

Fantastic Four 2

I caught a screening of "Rise of the Silver Surfer" on the lot this morning; I have to admit, I liked it. Going into the film I had read all of the fanboy gripes (especially in regards to Galactus' design), but on it's own the film stands quite well. However (and I may catch heat for this, given it's a Fox film and all), but I'm going to voice my own geeky complaint: I still don't like that dude who plays Doom. I love Dr. Doom, but Doom is NOT some annoying pretty boy. But that's my only real complaint - I had a good time with the film, and recommend that you go check it out!

PS - anyone else catch the subtle nod to the classic Galactus design? Points if you did; I thought that was very well done.

Repo

Rick Spears (writer of one of my fav books, Teenagers from Mars), has a great new series coming out later this month called Repo (with art by Rob G, artist on another one of my fav books, Couriers). I was lucky enough to snag the first two issues, and I am hooked. Be sure to check it out!
