04.25My Work Has A Blog
And possibly a flavor. Check out the blog at Powerheadgames.com for occasional updates from our midtown Chelsea-based headquarters.
And yes, Formal Fridays. It is my gift to this world.
Last weekend’s New York Comic Con was my first big convention thing (a visit to MoCCA shortly after moving here hardly compares), and all things considered I don’t think I could have asked for a nicer introduction the particular brand of insanity these things become the focal point for. The Girlfriend and I went [...]
04.18Comics < Sick
No Comics Are Expensive this week, this time due to spending the last two days with a stomach virus rather than any minor moral quandary. Though it turns out that having your stomach twist itself into interesting new shapes and reading a modern Jeph Loeb comic feel similar enough that it’s hard to tell [...]
So a funny thing happened on the way to finishing this week’s Comics Are Expensive: I realized I didn’t want to. The idea was to cover the big three of Marvel’s Ultimate line: Ultimate Spider-Man, Ultimate X-Men, and The Ultimates, all books I read regularly when they first appeared but haven’t touched in [...]
03.25Leveling up
Hello, twenty-six.
I’m usually one to get slightly melancholy on birthdays, taking the path of “I’m getting older and could have done so much more with the last year” and driving it straight into the ground, but am actively trying to avoid such thinking this time around. Because it was a good year. I [...]
10.19There And Back Again
I’m on a plane to Las Vegas in a few hours for a long weekend catching up with family. I don’t have any relatives out there, this is just apparently how we roll now. I’m have a little trouble coming to terms with the whole thing, namely because I:
1. am not good at gambling.
2. am [...]
Yes, it’s been a long time. I shouldn’t have left you. But here, here at long last, is your dope beat to step to:
July was a monster, an absolute beast of a month rising out of the ocean like a dozen creepy JJ Abrams trailers stacked on top of each other. Looking [...]
My room has been condensed to a stack of boxes and milk crates in the middle of the floor; if I’ve learned anything from preparing for the big move, it’s that packing is way easier when you own nothing but a stereo and speakers, some found furniture that will be returning to the street from [...]
06.04Noise! Won’t! Stop!
A day of triumphs, then, as I:
i) have at long last gotten around to beating the original Guitar Hero, making Stevie Ray Vaughn my bitch while barely surviving Ozzy.
ii) am 2/3’s of the way towards drunk, having declared war on a bottled of wine following…
iii) finally, along with the rest of my team [...]
Today’s post titles comes from the Undertones. We love the Undertones, right? Short and sharp ballistic pop hitting such heady subject matter as candy, girls, and being teenagers in love with candy and girls. A band with no greater rock aspirations than seeing your daughter naked, the Undertones are the ever-so-perfect and [...]
