When I was a boy, we had proper TV seasons—22 episodes! At least! None of this waiting three years for the next one. BAM—every fall, a new season in the lineup! Cover of TV Guide and everything!

There are many mysteries in the universe, I just want the answer to one: how the hell does Eric Powell manage to create illustrations at this level of detail and still put out like 5 graphic novels a year???

The Goon cover by Eric Powell, a nasty giant trying to eat the main character and his un-trusty sidekick, Franky.

Did not expect the Resident Evil franchise to be rebooted as an indie-style horror/comedy that sticks closely to the actual video game and yet manages to be something wholly original.

The plagiarism machine I created will likely kill us all, there’s a 40% chance, no, higher, like 75%,or more! But NO I will not “unplug it,” that’s an insane suggestion. The scientific solution is to *give me more money.*
