New Comics Day 4/8/09
Apr. 9th, 2009 07:34 amUpdate was delayed due to LJ or just my connection to it going out last night, then me crashing hard for the night. Though it was a very light pull week. Only three titles in fact...
First up is War of Kings: Ascension. Which seems to mostly be a continuation of the Darkhawk two-shot, except written by regular Cosmic Marvel scribes Abnett and Lanning. So, you know, considerably less emo than Cebulski. Though, because its Darkhawk, still some emo. I'm actually more interested in whats going on with the dying, just-barely survived Skrull commander floating in space from having the Inhumans blow up his fleeing armada. The one who has a glowy diamond that looks like Darkhawk's amulet approach him...
Then I again return to the Marvel Zombies concept. Stupid Van Lente being such a good writer. Marvel Zombies 4 kicks off with a terrible Greg Land cover (quick guess which wrestler he light-boxed to make Demian Hellstorm) and the new Midnight Sons clearing a cruise ship of zombie Fish-Men while hunting MZ-Earth Deadpool's head. Which apparantly escaped with the help of Simon Garth - Zombie. And it turns out, regular zombies like Garth aren't tasty to the Hunger Virus zombies. Oh yeah, and this issue has Black Talon, who's a voodoun bokor that dresses like a rooster...
And lastly we've got the Secret Six with Deadshot and Scandal going on a double-date. And beating up on people. Its probably the strongest issue of the new volume so far. And a bonus story that looks at one of Ragdoll's dreams, drawn in the style of Tiny Titans. That boy just ain't right...

Television-o
Apr. 9th, 2009 09:22 pmActually woke up early enough for tv. Still don't like The Office. Not because its bad, because its far from that. Just don't like it. The uncomfortable awkwardness of the characters, which most find funny, just turns me away...
Bones looks like its back on its feet though after some rocky early shows. Cast looks like its clicking again, especially the two leads...
Why is Izzy still crazy? Its been months since I've caught Grey's Anatomy. Why is she still seeing and having sex with Ghost Denny? Though the "we must not have sex with the hot interns" was amusing. One wonders what hospital all the ugly doctors get put at...
Ah 30 Rock. I've missed you. From Liz's getting ready for her "date" to the staff's reactions to the after-night fall-out to the final resolution. All so perfect. I've got to remember to try and watch you online...
