Quick Lesson in Latin.

So, today, I learned something that changed my life. You all have probably made this mistake at least once. Be prepared to have your mind blown:
In Latin, the pronunciation of the letter “v” is the same as the English pronunciation as “w.” How does this affect you?
“Veni Vidi Vici” is actually pronounced as “Weenee Weedee Weekee,” which is far less awesome than...

Just finished reading T-Bolts #149.

Easily has entered the list of Favorite On-Going Series.
But I ask. Why the heck was Man-Thing on the cover if the only thing he did in his book was have his head flown out by Moonstone? I was excited to see him get recovered or something to murk some ninja heads.
Sad face.
Anyways! GOOD NIGHT GUYS!
Good rule for posts like this:

“I’m tired of those of us who care in the game industry complaining that there aren’t enough female protagonists while those of them who make the money decisions keep responding, “Gee, we’d love to, but the market data is clear. They just won’t buy it.” I hear that from WOMEN in those money/marketing positions, too. And they say it while agreeing with the principle of the...

What is your most controversial opinion?
UPDATE.
Sorry about my absence of posts. I still love you all quite a lot. I’ve been working quite a lot and started a new semester of higher education so I’ve been a bit busy as of late. I hope all is well with you folks.
Anyone have anything awesomely interesting to share?

I do not agree with him often but he is 100% right here.
I’m not a huge fan of Millar either, but it’s interesting to hear a writer’s perspective on the digital market. 50/50 cut with the distrubuter? And that’s before the artist sees a dime? Yikes.
Sounds like digital comics will turn the comic industry into the music industry.
Artists get shit....

My Dear Friend.
Although this isn’t my personal blog, I need to vent to you all for a moment, if you don’t mind.
There is a close friend of mine who is very ill. His sister inexplicably died of this heart disease when she was very young and doctors were lucky enough to diagnose him with the same disease before it claimed him out of nowhere. For the last ten years or so, he has struggled with this...
One of the reasons I like Tumblr:
I see more posts about Norse mythology than Christianity/Islam/any other major religion.

More Greek Mythology Facts!
Zeus was the Tiger Woods of the Greek pantheon, minus the apologies.
A god’s seed never misses. Never.
Zeus actually consumed his first wife, allowing him to reproduce parthenogenetically which is how you get Athena (who, as one would assume, was given the most “manly” qualities of all the female goddesses).
In a true sexist fashion that only the Greeks could show, Hera...

(via starwarsandcomicsandshit, hayleycakes)
Not to be that guy, but this is entirely false. The gods actually created humans as an entirely male species until Prometheus stole divine fire from the gods and gave it to humans, which in turn gave the human race the ability to civilize themselves and progress beyond mere animals. For his crime against the pantheon, Prometheus was tied to a rock in...

Short break from comics and Christina Hendricks.
Not sure how many of you are avid readers, but if you are into Westerns or just good literature, go read Cormac McCarthy’s Blood Meridian. I actually contend that you are doing a disservice to yourself if you have not yet read it.

I just want everyone to know that I make a suggestive tongue motion every time you post sexy pictures on my dash. It’s an unfortunate habit but one I can’t seem to break.
Now post more porn.
Can I just continue with spamming Christian Hendricks/Christina Hendricks-related posts? PLEASE?
