Because I know I'm the only person who lurks here anymore.
Just a note... I'm trying to get in touch with Bill, it's been a while, to find out when the site is set to go defunct completely.
If there's anything you want, any of your writing and what have you, you better nab them now.
Love and Miss you all!

Dr. Strange DVD Review |

Doctor Strange is the fourth DVD title from Lions Gate and Marvel Comics, and actually in my opinion, the best so far. So far with the two "Ultimate Avengers" DVDs and the "Invincible Iron Man" one, the creators in charge have taken some unnecessary liberties with characters' backgrounds personalities and such from the original source material. This one is no different but here the changes only serve to enhance. The writing by Greg Johnson is superb and the animation is dazzling, just right for this sub-genre of superhero adventure. Johnson explores the pre-sorcerer Strange and his what-a-dickiness and the downfall that eventually brings him back as a better person, and hero. I enjoyed the backstory of longtime Strange foe Baron Mordo and the extra characterization and purpose lent to manservant Wong. The redesign of Strange's outfit is welcome leaning more toward subtle and practical which I didn't mind. Dormammu did bug me however, I think he's more scary in the comics, an image that would have been truly frightening animated. Oh well, I guess you can't win 'em all. This is a must-see for comics fans, and an accessible 'toon for the non-comics folks as well, enjoy!
Review from my blog.

The Human Torch, the Thing, the Black Panther and Storm... any thoughts?
I picked up the last two issues and despite any preconceptions I had, it's pretty good. I get a whole Silver/Bronze Age vibe from the writing, almost like Steve Englehart on Avengers when he was still trying to ape Roy Thomas. Good characterization, good interplay and an interesting predicament.
Anyone else reading this?
Glenn
