WELCOME TO CHAPTER 11, THE DOCTOR AND THE DOCTOR This chapter, like Chapter 8, The Captain and the Spy, will be quite short and primarily consist of a conversation between two people. However, my prediction is that the response to this version of that plot will be much more positive. I hope. I like little [...]

CANCER ISN’T FUNNY Most of us will lose or have already lost someone close to us because of cancer. Personally, I’ve lost more than one. Introducing this storyline was something I had to really consider before going ahead with it. There’s lots of ways to do this sort of thing wrong and I can’t honestly [...]

DOWN DRUNK You ever seen this show What Would You Do? It’s not great art, but I do believe it performs a great service. They stage these scenarios—boyfriend publically abusing girlfriend, racist store clerk giving some darker than hims a hard time, bottom rung human being spiking a girl’s drink in a bar and then trying to take her [...]

UPDATE! MY mini-REVIEW OF THOR! Marvel has done a great job with their "in universe" movies Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk and Iron Man 2. I’ve loved each of them to one degree or another, but a fair argument could be made that we’ve been getting slightly diminishing returns the more they keep doing it. [...]

THE GREEN HORNET I watched The Green Hornet with my wife over the weekend. I have no idea why she wanted to see it. Usually, she’s not much for the superhero stuff. But something about the trailers sparked her interest and we both laughed our way through it while agreeing that it doesn’t really come together [...]
