Lucas Defends Star Wars DVD Changes
No real surprise that he’s defending it, but the article (from Sci-Fi Wire) does a good job of summing up the changes.
Marvels
Fiziko noted that we have never reviewed Marvels, Kurt Busiek and Alex Ross’s look at the Marvel Universe, late 30s to early 70s, from the point-of-view of the average, non-super-powered guy.
Weekly Comics Discussion
This week’s shipping
list has some interesting stuff. I’ll be picking
up Essential Super Villain Team Up,
Pulse #5 (which finishes the “Thin Air”
story arc), Ultimate X-Men #51 (which
continues the “Cry Wolf” story arc) and X-Men:
The End Book One #3, which marks the half way
point in this portion of the series. Material I
won’t be picking up includes the Ultimate X-Men:
Tempest trade paperback, comprised of the issues
reviewed one article back (link below), and
Warlock #1, which actually doesn’t look too
bad. (There’s a free preview of that and more at Mile
High Comics if you’d care to give them a shot.)

“Jeremiah” in Canada
We’re finally getting “Jeremiah” in Canada. It airs
tonight on Space, at 10pm in
Toronto, which is in the time zone for which Space
advertises all of its times, so adjust to your time
zone accordingly. I’m tempted to review each episode
if I can find the time. The series is already
available on DVD; you can buy it from Amazon.com
or Amazon.ca
if you’d like.

And the winners are….
The 2004 Hugos have been awarded. Best novel goes to the only nominated work I didn’t get around to reviewing….
Hugo-Nominated Shorter Fiction
I’ve reviewed the short stories and all but one of the novels, and I had good intentions regarding the novellas and novelettes. Unfortunately, a busy schedule and the recent, unexpected death of a friend means that you’ll have to discuss this year’s Hugo-nominated shorter fiction on your own.
Below you will find links. The 2004 Hugos will be awarded this weekend in Boston.
