Over at CBR, I’ve been busy. I did interviews with Jim McCann about Mind The Gap and Marc Silvestri about Top Cow. I also did a few posts about Image Expo like the re-release of The Milkman Murders and The Red Diaries/The Re[a]d Diaries.

My pal Sean T. Collins wrote about the first and second seasons of Downton Abbey. As always, insightful stuff.

My other pal Ben Morse tackled one of my favorite characters, Guy Gardner, over on Cool Kids Table.

A month ago, Esquire reminded me that Wayne’s World (the flick) turned 20 this year. I first saw it with my grandma in Cleveland. Still dig both flicks.

I dug this Esquire interview with Michael Ian Black. Check it. If you’re a Star Wars fan and haven’t already, go check out Jason Geyer’s Action Figure Insider report on unused Phantom Menace promo ideas. My personal favorite is the Death Star basketball. I would still buy this today.
