the blog

This blog started as a place to write about my rediscovered love of comic books. Since then, I've decided to expand it to a [hopefully critical, hopefully funny, hopefully engaging] discussion of all the things in the world I like. Gaming, comics, movies and television top that list, but there are many others and most of them fall into the category of "geeky" or "gay" (literally, not derogatorily). I write things here that won't fit into 140 characters on Twitter, or need more than a picture and caption on Tumblr.
