  • At work. Not as sleepy as I expected me to be. Even with the rain, this should be a good day. #
  • @swierczy Yeeeee!!!!!!!!!! #
  • Congrats @ToddNauck - American Dream #1 sells out! http://snurl.com/296zm #
  • @comicbooknoise I just have to make sure there’s always something to mention about him in every post. #
  • @patloika Really? #
  • @comicbooknoise @patloika I would love to make the trip out there at least once. #
  • I really want to see Iron Man again. #
  • @comix Unfortunately, my wife prefers the sun. She loves thunderstorms, but too much rain depresses her. #
  • @comicbooknoise I can’t wait for you to. #
  • @comix HA! #
  • @comicbooknoise I have a screener copy, it’s been ‘ported to my iPod, and I still haven’t seen 300. #
  • @geniodiabolico I agree. With the exception of maybe the first Superman, but yeah… Iron Man is the one to beat. #

  • Head weighs a ton. Sinuses making me bleary-eyed. Editing Marvel Noise is no easy feat tonight. #
  • Brain still feels like it’s sloshing around my skull. Time to see if I can keep food down and finish the show. Not going to work today. #
  • @patloika That’s it? That’s all we get?!?! #
  • Hoo. Ray. Marvel Noise 34 is going through the encoding process. Finally. #
  • I find the current Six Flags pitch a little racist. #
  • @comicbooknoise @comix It’s probably just me, but the Asian guy yelling, his dialect, and the sound F/X; it just seems… off. #
  • @acomicbookgirl Ack! I didn’t see yout tweet. Sorry. #
  • And I can’t find any commercials for Six Flags Great Adventure. It’s the same guy but he’s more subdued when hawking for the other parks. #
  • @comix It probably is just me. For some reason, I honed in on this one. #
  • @_eldave_ Mic check? #

Wolverine: The Amazing Immortal Man and Other Bloody TalesThere’s a little bit of everything this week. Our host gushes about the Iron Man movie, Jeff Parker, Annihilation and it’s Conquest.

For thoseUncanny X-Men 201 of you not up-to-date on Secret Invasion (as of the mini’s second issue) may want to skip ahead a minute or two. Marvel Tales goes recounts a dark day in X-Men history (where I’m concerned) and finally, Adam Besenyodi (earth616) offers a wonderful review of Powers.

  • @SCederlund A good weird I hope. #
  • @comicbooknoise Have they put in their applications with the Noisemaker Supreme? As for being too tired, that might be awhile. #
  • @SCederlund Thank you, sir. #
  • @comicbooknoise Understood. #
  • Marvel Noise 34 has been recorded. All that’s left is editing and putting the segments in place. So, really, there’s a lot more left to do. #
  • Holy crap! @Salazarus is on twitter. Hi, Sal!! #
  • @_eldave_ Yay, Dave! #
  • @Salazarus You’re confusing twitter with MySpace. #
  • @kellysue Not when I check with Firefox. #
  • @kellysue But it does look that why when browsing with IE. #
  • @swierczy Oh, I hope _that_ makes it into a book. #

Let Gene Colan Know You Care

Published by David under Art, Comic Books, Conventions

The news making the rounds is that Gene Colan’s liver is failing.

I was lucky enough to meet Mr. Colan last year at the New York Comic Con. I received a Howard the Duck sketch, he signed a copy of Daredevil #54 that I purchased earlier, and - and most importantly - I got to shake his hand and say “thank you”.

Action has been taken and plans are being put into place to offer Gene and his wife Adrienne assistance during this time.

Information and the address to send cards and letters to can be found here. Clifford Meth is organizing an auction. If you have items you’d like to donate or want information on bidding, click here. Mark Evanier writes about the Colans here. The Beat.

My thoghts are with the Colans, their family, and friends.

  • Recording Marvel Tales for this week’s Marvel Noise. #
  • Made it to work. Now all I’d like to do is park the Tucson. #
  • TomVsJLA was my copilot on my commute to work. #
  • @patloika @tomkaters They had no sleeves on their shirts, and one was wearing a bandana, correct? #
  • Thanks to Adam, I’m listening to some Love & Rockets and XTC. It’s like I’m back in high school! Long live WDRE! #
  • @plinkostick Indeed. Wish I could spend the day reading the comics of the same name. #

At The Close of Another Weekend

Published by David under Comic Books, Conventions, Friends, House, Us

I think this weekend was a good one.  I was able to mow the lawn (much to Nanuuq’s happiness, as in some areas, the grass was up to her tuchas) and help Renee in the yard as well as run through our usual errands.  We also made it to Walmart where I was able to swap one of our empty propane tanks for a full one.  Which meant I was able to grill up some hot dogs for Renee and I tried something new - grilling up some cheese quesadillas.  And they came out pretty well.

Today was spent powerwashing the deck, where Renee was rearranging and setting up the furniture.  I grilled up some chicken and we spent a nice, peaceful day together.  I think she had a very good birthday and mother’s day.

We also got to see a little art film.  I think it’s in limited release, not on too many screens.  Something called Iron Man.

So yeah, I think this weekend capped off a pretty decent week, cable issues with the phone and the ‘net notwithstanding.  Vince, Chris, and I recorded the second episode of 11 O’Clock Comics and that seems to have a few folks entertained.  Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to set up any Sneak Peeks for Marvel titles shipping next week, but I plan on being on the ball this Friday.

I almost forgot - Saturday night, I received a text message from Pat Loika (who was attending the Emerald City Comic Con) with the following image attached.  I love the big guy and my infatuation with Jeff Parker continues to grow.  Gentlemen, thank you both.

If you’re not reading X-Men: First Class, shame on you!

  • Oy. It’s morning. Yippee. The missus and I are on our way to work. #
  • @LordShaper It wasn’t a straight up ‘yippee’. Sarcasm doesn’t always work in 140 character bites. #
  • And we’re home. I don’t think I did much twittering today. Some might consider that a gift. #
