3/16/13 Addendum: American Grindhouse. Documentary about exploitation films and grindhouse theaters. Enjoyable, interesting. 3/17/13 Sleepwalk with Me. Comedian Mike Birbiglia’s semi-autobiograpical film about his life as a stand-up, relationship with his girlfriend, and his sleeping disorder. Watching it right now. It’s okay. May have been over-hyped for me. Probably the first of like 6 movies …

37. Electric Superman
I make no apologies for my liking of Electric Superman. In fact, Electric Superman is when I developed my love of Stuart Immonen. He needs to write more. I thought about doing a supplemental Red Electric Superman, but fuck that guy. Movies for 3/8/2013: Manhunter The first attempt at a Hannibal Lecter movie, it’s the …
31. Black Canary
Dinah’s response to Ollie’s posing from yesterday. Basically, I couldn’t leave the back cover to Green Arrow # 17 blank. Today’s movie: How to be a Serial Killer. Wanna know the secret? Watch this terrible movie and you’ll want to kill everyone around in frustration.

Oi, piss off. Hellblazer # 300 comes out today in comic shops everywhere and concludes the longest running Vertigo comic and – on a technicality – DC comic. I’ve already said my piece on the subject of John Constantine and DC’s cancelling of his book in favor of a New 52’d version. Since I get …
8. Batman
Batman doodle on a Post-it. I do not like a short-eared Batman. Unless it’s Adam West.
3. Lady Beetle
Over Christmas my former friend asked if she could draw me something as a present. I said yes, she asked me what I would want. Whenever any of my friends asks me what I want them to draw, I say Blue Beetle (Ted Kord). Not being comfortable drawing male characters, she drew a female version. …
