Since I left off in December let me catch my one reader up to what geek things I’ve been up to.

Fables vol. 10

Fables vol. 10

Between January and March I managed to find a copy of every Fables trade that has been released and read them all. This is probably the best series I have ever read and if you aren’t already reading it go out and buy the first two volumes RIGHT NOW! Why the first two? Well, the first one just isn’t enough to get you fully hooked so you’ll want to read the second one right away to really feel the effect of the story. Once you’ve done that, go out and buy the rest because I can guarantee you’ll be drooling for more.

Also during my run with Fables I picked up another Bill Willingham title – House of Mystery vol. 1. From what I read in the first volume I’m looking forward to the second, but I still have a while to wait on that one. The saddest part about my coming to love Bill Willingham’s work this year was he was Emerald City Comic Con LAST year and I missed my chance to meet him. Hopefully he’ll make a return visit to the con in the coming years.

Batman R.I.P

It’s been a long time since I’ve last written and I’m going to attempt to be better at this blogging thing. I’m unfortunately the type of person to get really excited about a project, work on it for a while and then push it aside for the next “big idea”. I won’t let this become one of them.

So, I’m going to spend today catching up on some posts long overdue, and the first is a review of Batman R.I.P. written by the amazing Grant Morrison and art by Tony Daniel. Now, I say Grant Morrison is amazing because he has written two of my favourite books – All Star Superman and Batman: Arkham Asylum – and since I’m a girl the fact he’s a snappy dresser and has a wicked accent also helps me give him this label.

First of all I would like to state that though I enjoy video games I really am no good at them. There are many reasons for my poor gaming skills, the biggest of which is my video game ADD. I get a game, play it for about a week, and never touch it again. Currently both Kingdom Hearts II and Zelda: Phantom Hourglass are being neglected. (In the case of Kingdom Hearts I am completely stuck on two different boss battles so I gave up – another issue of mine)

I have only ever completed two games in my life – Sonic and Knuckles (Sega Genesis) and Final Fantasy 9 (PS2). Oh, I guess I also finished Guitar Hero 2 on medium and the vocals for Rock Band. (more…)

Just a random doodle from my D&D binder.
One day I might do something cool with him. Bring it into Illustrator or something like that.
