Awwwww hell yeah! It’s “Brand New Day”…Day. And that’s after I realized last night I bought tickets for the wrong night! Still got ‘em, I’m totally ready!

A fan of video games, comics, and nerdy stuff. I post randomly depending on my mood but trying out different formats and such. I used to write reviews for Spider-Fan and so I’m trying to get back into that a bit. Profile pics commissions from Chris Campana
My 4-year-old and I, both getting a book from the library about the zoo, apparently. Wonder if they tell the same story??
Super cool of Marvel to announce spoilers for Venom and the Queen in Black before the first issue drops. Just classic Marvel.
This news makes me consider one of my favorite @penny-arcade.com quotes, seen expertly edited here.
First poster for ‘EBENEZER’, a new film based on ‘A Christmas Carol’ starring Johnny Depp. “Before he was Scrooge, he was Ebenezer”
“Sleep In Heavenly Peace”….where do they sleep. WHERE. DO. THEY. SLEEP.
Took a reallllll long break, what with holidays, the move, and just wanting to play different games, but here is the completed Gameboy Lego! Despite numerous mistakes, a real blast to put together.
Part of the fun of moving is finding new things that the movers broke, like one of a kind statues you got for supporting a small kickstarter campaign or a black-suit spider-man that’s now missing 2 fingers.
It may be hot and humid, but at least we also have no power now on top of that.
I left ONE of my 9 or so boxes of comics for our movers to handle. They were all bagged, boarded, and sorted in an Amazon box. They are now strewn across several boxes in whatever order they decided. That is probably several hours worth of resorting.
Caught up on Amazing Spider-Man #31 and “The Talk”. You know, I think they accidentally “aged” Peter. May says that “45 years ago” they made mistakes at hospitals sometimes and that’s how Cormac got lost or whatever. And then 15 years later Peter came to them. So Peter was born (now) sometime
Blue Moon Cafe in Baltimore. We got 3 different kinds of French toast- Piña Colada, Crab Dip, and Captain Crunch. Decadence.
I may hate the driving, but I do love a good baseball game. I also like an Orioles game, which is rarely good for THEM
Reading ASM #29 and Daredevil #3 back-back-back essentially has been a great time, because both issues have the title character being taught by the guest how to manage their super senses/spider-sense and live in balance and I don’t know if this was intentional or coincidence
On a family trip in Baltimore and I remember that I hate driving in Baltimore more than I have ever hated anything else ever.
Tried the 2025 “The Running Man” last night. I don’t remember the original at all, but I really liked this new one. People said the pacing was weird (my wife said the beginning especially), but I was into it. The right blend of crazy but also trying to say something.
Whoever decided to put the giant spiders back into Resident Evil games- fuck you. Fuck you so much.
1) does the “5 Guys Way” mean “surprisingly expensive” 2) that description is literally your average BLT
My 4.5 year old has spent the last few days playing pretend “going to the comic store”. So I’m either doing a good job as a parent or a GREAT job.
A new Resident Evil, the last part of the FF7 remake, AND Spidey/Luke Cage/DD are on the Avengers (with Zdarsky and Chechetto as the creative team)? Yesterday was VERY good to me.
Giving “Spider-Noir” a shot finally. Doing black-and-white. Given my strange obsession with original mini-series, I’m cautiously optimistic
Getting sick on the weekend is the worst, but getting sick in a way where I can’t talk and have to both try to help raise a child AND I can’t just comment on everything all the time- pure Hell. Except, I guess, for the people who have to LISTEN to me. For them it’s great.
Got a commission done by Chris Campana recently as part of a raffle he did. Got the sketch and these signed covers. Never disappoints, this guy!
So after trying Hades 2 I decided I needed to ACTUALLY beat Hades. After over a month of trying, I was able to finally get through 10 successful runs. May try to get the epilogue, but damn, was I feeling bleak there for awhile. Very satisfying to finally get that ending.
Now that Hades 2 is on gamepass I can get addicted to a game that I am objectively terrible at, all over again! I may never beat it, but at least I’ll have a lot of fun in the process.
Well that was certainly not at all what I was hoping. There was one kind of cool twist to the SH2 story, but overall, this was a big disappointment. The first movie, while crazy, did a good job of also slowly telling a story. This was a lot of noise. Big bummer.
One of my top 5 favorite games, some of my favorite music in games, and I legit love the first SH movie he did? Sold.
Despite my kid not being old enough to do this yet, I may reference this at every con I go to and also maybe every Halloween. Pretty much if I have a chance, I’m gonna do it.
Penny Arcade for May 14th 2008, 18 years ago today was a true story! www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2008/0...
Uh, what’s going on with these heights and weights? And the descriptions? I feel like maybe they may have just picked them at random.
