Whoo! Here's the last video of the day. Hopefully, you checked out the last two Star Wars Builders videos ( Starfighters and Millennium Falcon ) and also this month's Loot Anime unboxing. This month's Loot Crate had some junk. I wish I could say that nicer, but the X-Files tie-in was garbage and I've yet to meet anyone that genuinely like Jessica Jones or cared to own anything from the show. Even the Stranger Things tie-in was kind of meh. Really you could have called this box a Netflix and friends box, but whatever. There is one Batman related item that was fan-fucking-tastic.

Are you tired of videos yet? I hope not because I'm still making them. Thankfully I got both Loot Anime and Loot Crate on the same day so I was able to pump out both and will hopefully be done with video reviews for a hot minute. This month's Loot Anime wasn't bad actually, some really impractical things like a pencil that you need a knife to sharpen. Ah, you'll see, but it was pretty good. Still not sure why the "Anime" box continues to give me "Manga", but that's the breaks or something.

I don't even know what to say... it was like watching Diamond is Unbreakable, only with real people. I only wish that JoJo #1 was a bit more ripped diesel, but he pulled the rest of the look off perfectly. No idea what anyone is saying though, I didn't bother with YouTube's weird "let's try closed caption and get it wrong!" setting, but I imagine it's just like the show.

Our good friend and one-time reviewer of the site Carl is back with his YouTube series called "History of Stuff." He takes a look at things like Pizza, Comic Books, and Toliet Paper... yes, Toilet Paper. Granted Carl is my friend so I'm going to be a bit biased when viewing anything he does, but then I also manage to fairly evaluated comics of past writers all the time. My point, this is good TV so give it a view, a share and a like.

If you listened to this week's Comic Bastards Podcast we actually talk about One-Punch Man. You should listen to that and also buy this if you haven't watched it yet. It's worth owning even if there are a bunch of streaming options... shit, I might buy it and I need more anime like a hole in the head.

Star Wars Builders - Droids continues my new video review features. This time I dabble in front of the camera... it's also the last time since I hated how I look. Damn action cameras. Anyway, this is a builder set in which you use glossy cardboard pieces to make different droids from the Star Wars universe. The video has a time lapse, an intro and my thoughts afterward so I'll let it do the rest of the work. Up next will be Starfighters and lastly The Millennium Falcon. Thanks for watching!

When I learned that Eric Heisserer, writer of Denis Villenueve's astonishing Arrival, was relaunching Valiant's Secret Weapons as a 4-issue miniseries with Raul Allen on pencils and Patricia Martin on colors, I was ecstatic. Even the previews had stricken me rabid with anticipation. I couldn't wait to see what the team would bring to the Valiant universe with their take on Amanda McKee (Livewire) and this new band of misfit psiots. Well, my dear bastards, the time has come.

Every so often, two or more of my interests share a glorious, usually fleeting moment. Once, I ate cheesecake as Bob Dylan's Highway 61 Revisited flowed from tastefully small speakers that sat on a rustic coffee table next to a dog-eared copy of William Gibson's Neuromancer. Years later, I met Henry Winkler at a comic con, and he performed an amateur magic trick. And just yesterday, my cat and I played with bubble wrap.

Welp, I'm back. And if you read my review for the previous issue of JLA, you'll know that means the book has, in fact, gotten worse. But funnily enough, it's not all that rage inducing this time around. It's shit, but it doesn't really feel like much of an effort is being made to convince us otherwise. It's more of a whimper than a bang as T.S. Eliot might say. That being said, shit is still shit, and I'm hard-pressed to let this alone as long as Steve Orlando continues to provide such baffling and stupid content in hopes it'll somehow justify the book's existence. So, here we go: Justice League of America #5.

Like me, you may have missed the deconstruction of the individual Aspen titles sometime last year. Not to be mean, but I really didn’t care. Aspen over the past several years has been very inconsistent and shipped very little. If I’m not mistaken, we’re still waiting for the second issue of the newest Executive Assistant: Iris title, which doesn’t seem to matter now.
