Reviews: Ted

Ted is the first feature film from writer/director Seth MacFarlane, who is most known as the creator of animated TV series Family Guy and American Dad. After the success of those series, it wasn’t a big surprise that he’d take on a big-budget comedy film. Ted is a simple story about a boy, John, who

Review: Ultimate Iron Man Volume 1

After four separate posts about Adam Warren I figured I’d take a break from the 24-Hour Adam Warren Station (“All Adam Warren, All The Time”) and write about somebody else. Not that I couldn’t go on and on about the guy’s art, but I’m edging into creepy-fan territory, and people are starting to talk. So

Samsung 830 Series SSD Review

Samsung has achieved a reputation most multi-channel manufacturers can only dream of. Their products span the entertainment, convenience, home appliance fields and many others, and while they are perhaps best known for their line of Home Entertainment products, their computer component line-up is equally impressive.

Movie Issues Dual Review: Rock of Ages

Rock’n’Roll will never die – as long as it never sees Rock of Ages. The cinematic version of a Broadway love letter to rock in the 80’s is a far cry from the spirit of what rock actually was at the time. This movie does its best to capture the success of the original live

Review: Adam Warren’s Empowered Volume 7

A few readers may stop by this column to get a balanced critique of Adam Warren’s Empowered Volume 7. I’ll tell you right now: you ain’t gonna get it. This isn’t so much an article by a book reviewer as it is a love-letter to a comic by a fangirl. I’m about to sing this

Review: Empowered Volumes 1-6

As I’m writing this, we are days away from the release of Adam Warren’s Empowered Volume 7. (If you’re reading this on May 30 I’m probably at the comic shop right now buying my copy.) I’d hoped to have a review of the book already written, but the preview copy I’d been very generously given

Review: Scissors, Paper, Stone

Sorry for the lag time between reviews. I’d been hoping one of the books I’ve been reading would turn out to be so amazingly awesome I’d just have to write the best review ever. Sadly, this was not the case. (Looking Glass Wars was just a little underwhelming. You too, Dead Witch Walking.) So I
