Bread Bowl

Stinkin' Ads. Dirty rotten ads in comics. I am freakin sick to death of ads in comics! For the last month, every time I buy a DC comic I get innundated with ads. And not just little one pagers, I'm talking double page spreads advertising for video games that I'm not even remotely interested in. It completely screws up the flow of the comic, and I'm sick of it. And the worst part is, that every freakin DC comic I've bought for the last month has had an 8 Page Insert about the new Matrix Online Game. EIGHT PAGES! And, frankly, I'm not that big of a fan of the Matrix series (the first one woulda been good if not for Keanu, while the next two were raging botch jobs). I don't get it, DC is owned by AOL/Time Warner, and the only reason they exist is to provide life support for the potentially lucrative superheroes that DC owns. So why the crap do we need alla these damn ads! Gyah!

On a side note, despite this rant, if you're looking for a good read, "Klarion the Witch Boy #1" (part of the Seven Soldiers line I've been talking about extensively) and "Otherworld #2" are out. Both are exceptional reads, highly recommended.

In totally unrelated news, the owners of the local game store have opened a restaraunt and named their Chili after me. So, if you're ever in Olney, Il, stop by Ami's Cafe and order the Cactus Joe Chili in a Bread Bowl. It rocks almost as much as SDF. (snickersnicker, that was so lame)
