Welcome back! I was wondering where this thing went.

I was going to say something snappy, but then I forgot what it was.

I agree with you on WWH:X-men it should have been down with one issue or at most 2. I was expecting the end of the lightning saga and how they brought back Wally West and killed off Bart Allen in the same week. Which kind of upset me because Bart didn't get to sacrifice himself to save the world or universe just to save California.

welcome back

Should we be all that shocked that a comic company would drag something out for sells?

Oh and in GL corps they have a ring go and find a person, i think it was from Sinestro's home world. Not sure but she told the ring to take a flying leap she was busy. In the end i think the ring more or less took her by force. Or she had to use the ring to save someone and was stuck with it. Would have to go digging for the issue and thats not going to happen right now. Maybe someone who did read that mini of the GL recharge can post better about that.

Top 5 reasons its taken a month

5. Read one of my top 5's and forget that you have ever read one of them before.

4. Quit reading comics because they are for kids.

3. Thought you were living in a comic book and one of the names that Hulk called was Billy. HULK SMASH

2. Could not find a new guest host for the week, because Nathaniel Essex canceled. Something about having to put the new Marauders together. Damn Scarlett Witch and her no more mutants.

1. UDE told Billy the only way he could get the job was stop doing podcasts and not read anymore comics so they could ruin this game.

Sinestro Corps was the best comic book released thus far this year, IMO. Which... isn't saying MUCH.

Actually they don't want Ranma when he's a girl, a couple of them try and kill him because they think girl him is someone else. It's funny. Very light. And maybe you don't think Pandas and little pigs are cool, but you should see the guy with a curse to turn into a Yeti riding a yak carrying an eagle carrying a snake. Which basically means he's a big ### monster who stomps people.

But I can understand not being into anime and manga. Some peoples is winners and some peoples is losers.

The WoW talk among people who play (and I don't, yet) can really mess with your head. Cause you'll be talking about something and literally half a second later they're conversing in an entirely seperate language. Like Japanese or Austrailian. Intermingling words you kind of recognize here and there.

Batarang:CE could be cool, but probably will just suck. It's Bat Equipment that isn't the Utility Belt, how can you beat that?

Monarch is still Captain Atom. I enjoy the clichés when done right. Also, you guys have to read Promethia. Alan Moore is such a wonderful writer, I can't think of a single story I haven't enjoyed of his. I'm just horrified this week by Billy's sexist nature.

next week i'll be sure to unleash my "feminine" side.

You keep her chained up? Man, first you tell us you #### her, now you say she's into BDSM? That's a kinky broad.

She'd like Promethia.

-Mike

man, maybe we're getting a bit too spicy for Internet radio?

Hey! I resemble that comment! Strewth, ya blighter, I oughtta take ya out beyond the black stump and leave ya to the dingoes... ;)

If it helps make you feel better I'd like to eventually (lazy) learn both.

-Mike

see, this sounds exactly like the stuff that fights it's way out of paul ross' mouth everyday. even written out like this, i have no idea what you're saying.

All I have to say to that is... Sucked in!
Now, have a meat pie floater with some dead horse and be done with it.
