Joel And Sleepy Eli Strike Back

Kevin Smith has not already seen J.J. Abram’s “Star Trek.” Except that he totally has. But he hasn’t. And whatever he hasn’t seen, he can’t talk about. What can’t he talk about? He’s not at liberty to say. Let’s just say pointy ears are involved…I’ve said too much.
Well I’ve seen the movie too, […]

Marvel: Endangered Species

I was pretty intrigued by the new storyline introduced in X-Men #200, named Endangered Species.
I was also kind of happy to find out it would be a running story, crossing over all of the X titles.
I was disappointed, however, to learn that the Endangered Species story line was going to be merely an 8 page […]

Colossal Squid

See yuh Wally, I’ve decided it will be more of a challenge to write with just one character. Also, the original art for this strip is available for purchase.
The colossal squid (Mesonychoteuthis hamiltoni) which is thought to grow up to 13 or 14 meters long is even larger than the giant squid which […]

No Disassemble Visitation Rights

I posted a remark in the previous comic about Johnny 5 walking out on WALL-E and his mom. Almost immediately I wanted to see this SciFi/Lifetime movie play out. So there you go.I imagine it was tough for Jonathan 5 after “Short Circuit 2.” There were rumors of a 3rd installment, “Short Circuit […]

Robin: The TV Show

With Smallville in its final season, the CW is looking to add another superhero to its lineup with The Graysons-a look at the life of Robin before he was Batman’s sidekick. At first glance, this kind of feels like something that will be as awful as Birds of Prey or the Aquaman pilot, but once […]

Art & Story 55 - The Big Podcaster

I’ll warn you now-this one is more of a “meta episode” where we discuss a lot of the ideas that go into making the Art & Story podcast. But both topics are requested by listeners, so I’m still hopeful that most of you will enjoy it.
This week we start with an audio comment sent to […]

Survival of The Crispiest

One might contend that the gas tank is actually still filled with gasoline and Eli, after a long day of replacing a car engine with a deep fryer and drinking, just doesn’t realize. A sure fire indicator would be if his esophogus liquified.
“Death Race” seems like the kind of movie you could really enjoy if […]

Why So Posthumous?

I don’t want to weigh in on the whole “does he deserve an Oscar” dispute, because I don’t really put any stock in the Academy Awards. It’s mostly a Hollywood “let’s all smell our own farts” circle jerk fiasco. That said, having seen “The Dark Knight,” I can honestly say that no actor has ever […]

What Scolari wants

It seems Chelsea is all pumped up to destroy all that stands in its way. Scolari demands for global love for the London club, while John Terry sits next to him and proclaims he is ready to step up for his club, be it Premier League, Champions League or the 2 feeble cups. Smells like […]
