Thoughts on comics, video games, bingeable television series, and other works of fiction
I enjoy reading digital comics, particularly those featuring Batman. He’s my favorite DC character by a long shot with Nightwing and the Flash making a strong case to round out my top three. Batman is an incredibly complex character. His relationship with Joker is even more. If you want an entertaining take on it, read …
We are now the proud owners of a Nintendo Switch. The hard to find console of 2020 made its appearance here after I found it at a GameStop at the Florence Mall. I really wanted the red/blue JoyCon combo and it was the only store in Northern Kentucky that had that model in stock (everywhere …
I really like E-Bay. It is fun looking at and reminiscing on the old toys and games I had as a kid, and sometimes even buying them too. I recently went looking to replace my old Risk board game, which is lost in the ether somewhere during some move many years ago. I think at …

The gist of the story arc is that there are multi-verses that are created and destroyed and all …

I chose the “Batman Who Laughs” simply because the character looks so crazy. If you are …
Every Halloween season I like to find a scary book, either one that deals with ghosts, monsters, or scary science fiction. Unfortunately, I am too far behind in my reading to throw a Halloween book on top of the list. Instead, I want to utilize the video services we subscribe to and watch a few …
There’s no doubt that World Wrestling Entertainment is unique. It is a spectacle in and of itself and there’s not a lot of parallelism to it, which is interesting because it’s been such a moneymaker.
