kybearfuzz- You know you're getting old when the superheroes in the comics you read since you were a kid are now YOUNGER than you are.
- On comics, the "Blackest Night" storyline at DC is the bomb. Also, I hope that the Legion of Super-Heroes is going to get a separate series, as I don't see me getting enough out of a back-up in "Adventure Comics."
- What has happened to Bearciti? Is it now gone for good?
- On Friday, Tim (making his second appearance in the journal now) and I watched Rebecca, which I'd always heard about (mainly through the Carol Burnett Show Parody "Rebecky"), but not seen. Incredible movie. A young woman marries a wealthy widower and moves into his mansion only to discover that the shadow of the previous wife still reigns in the house. The best of the movie is Judith Anderson who plays the evil Mrs. Danvers! I bought this one.
- I saw District 9 this past weekend. The movie starts a bit slow and silly, but turns into a really good movie. I would hope that we as the human race would treat aliens better than this. The acting was good, as was some of the eye candy and the special effects. I can see a sequel in the future.
- I haven't stopped doing the found money project for the year. I haven't counted it in a week or so, but I think I'm now above $3, which isn't bad considering it is mostly pennies.
- I am in a drawing mood, but hitting a drawing block. Dang...

Date: 2009-08-17 01:21 pm (UTC)I never read much of the original Legion beyond a few comics of my uncle's, but I'm definitely enjoying how it's been popping up over the past few years. It's possible that the Legion backup will take over more of the book at some point. After all, Adventure Comics was originally both Superboy and the Legion in a similar format.
I was curious so I did a google search a week or two ago about Bearciti. I ran across their Twitter, and they were moving servers but got busy with their full time jobs. *shrug*
So is this Tim a friend, or a "friend" in the sense that some people's parents use? ;)
