Ah sleep. My old foe. You taunt and tease and give up so little. But enough of those ramblings! Now it is time for comics ramblings!

Starting with Franklin Richards Son of a Genius: Not-So-Secret Invasion. With young Master Richards and his robot pal dealing with Skrulls, giant lizards, tiny dinosaurs and week-end homework! The horror. The horror...

Then in Nova the 2nd Annihilation War is over. And so Rich can return to his regular job as Space Cop. And that means tracking down a murderous spirit being on a world in its death throes. And then maybe trying to get the Big G to listen to a request...

And in ps238, the Vegas adventure is over and Ms. Kyle and her charges return to the school. Where some changes are underfoot as the super-powered parents of the students decide that their kids will be safer if they all move their headquarters above the school. Oh and Tyler is asked to make a choice about the future of super-humanity. PLUS Prospero's mission revealed! Oh and maybe some people (*coughRevenantcough*) have finally figured out what Cecil can do. No not the wings. The original thing...

Over with Angel: After the Fall more on how Wesley and Connor's first day in Hell went. Bonus: Kate Corrigan, Freelance Monster Hunter! Oh and a certain psychic fish gets some clues as to Gunn's long term goals...

And in Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer the Slayers bury one of their own and then team up with Dracula to attack the Japanese vamps who want to de-Slayerfy the world. Oh and a giant monster stomps all over Tokyo..

Metal Men finishes up its limited series with Doc Magnus & his 'bots teaming up with T.O. Morrow to save the Metal Men from the All-Seeing Eye. But can they trust Morrow? Lucky they've got Doc Magnus in their corner to watch Doc Magnus' back...

Then Jack Staff FRAMED! Can Britain's greatest hero escape the police and his friend TomTom the Robot Man long enough to clear his name? And whats going on with Bramble & Son Vampire Hunters and Bramble the Vampire AND Becky Burdock Vampire Reporter. Oh and a certain Freelance Rabbit familiar to fans of Eden City makes a cameo...

Next we've got a Dynamo 5 annual. With Captain Dynamo getting in trouble at an Noble Family anniversary party. And dealing with his girlfriend problems. Followed by an early training mission for the 5. And ending with the kids dealing with some werewolves and snoopy tabloid journalist...

And we finish up with Scud the Disposalbe Assassin's grand finale. Hank Grit, Drywall, Mess and Scud storm the Gates of Heaven and do battle with the Angelic Host. *sniff* I'll miss you Scud. Your return was too brief..

You Kill Me

Ben Kingsley plays a drunken Polish mob hitman. After passing out when he's supposed to be killing Dennis Farina's Irish mob boss he gets sent to San Francisco to clean up. There he joins AA, becomes a mortician and starts dating Tea Leoni. Also confessing his job to pretty much everybody...

Really even in AA you'd think people would be more willing to try and turn him in...

Also Leoni is surprisingly NOT annoying in this. Always a shock...

ETA: Oh yeah and Kingsley's ears ARE HUGE. I can't stop staring at them...
