Evening round-up
comics and animation, everyday glory, geekery, movies and TV, news and info May 29th, 2008I came home with no idea what I wanted to do for dinner. So, rather than decide immediately, I read this week’s four-color haul and did something I haven’t done in a rather long time: I watched an episode of Smallville. I should find the collected seasons of the show.
I finally figured out what I wanted for dinner: A chicken sandwich… from Jitterbug. It was closed.
Curses! Foiled again!
*shakes fist*
*twirls moustache*
I drove back towards home, still not 100% sure of what I wanted. I wound up with fast food. Better’n nothing, I suppose. I ate dinner while watching Justice League Unlimited; tonight’s episode was “Doomsday Sanction,” one of the show’s strongest second-season episodes.
I am still not in a mood to do much straightening… so I think I’ll spend some time in Paragon City.
Stray Toasters
- The Joss Whedon-John Cassady run on Astonishing X-Men has come to an end. They wrapped up the story in a way I never expected. This was Wizard.com’s Thursday Morning Quarterback take on the story – it’s full of spoilers, so I don’t read it if you have any intention of reading Giant-Sized AXM #1 for yourself. Warren Ellis will be taking over the writing chores this summer.
- Former Carol Burnett co-star Harvey Korman died today; he also appeared in a few Mel Brooks movies.
- The Star Trek world suffered two blows recently: Joseph Pevney and Alexander Courage both passed away. Pevney, who died 18 May, directed many fan favorite episodes of Star Trek: TOS. Alexander Courage, who died on 15 May, composed the theme for the original series.
