• 14:02:40: Finally started watching my House DVDs last night. American Hugh Laurie takes some getting used to. I figure I'll adapt by the 4th season.
  
• 23:36:39: RIP John Hughes. Only 59 and responsible for defining a whole genre and era of movies practically single handedly.

On comic reviews again!

Not much reaction to my comics reviews, I see. I suspect that producing them at least a week after the issues have come out is likely to suck the appeal out of that feature, yes? I don't usually get to the comic store until the weekend after comics have come out... another few days to read them...

I think I might stick to reviewing the collected volumes I pick up or complete story arcs, over individual issues. What do people think? Is there more appeal in that?

Time for a poll!

[Poll #1440932]
Under the cut: Reviews for UNCANNY X-MEN: FIRST CLASS GIANT SIZED SPECIAL and #1, TRANSFORMERS SPOTLIGHTS: CLIFFJUMPER AND METROPLEX and RUNAWAYS #12.
