Damien
writes, So much for not flogging the dead
horse… the Save Enterprise fund has received a $3
million pledge from three anonymous donors from
the new private space flight industry. The donors
state that “We think Star Trek and especially its
latest incarnation, “Enterprise” is the kind of TV
that should be aired more often” and “The
people airing this kind of TV have a responsibility;
inspiration.” Too bad they didn’t add a clause:
get rid of the current management (BnB).

Weekly Comics Discussion – Wednesday, March 2, 2005
This
week, I’ll be taking home Doctor Spectrum
#5. Other items of note shipping this week
include new issues of Exiles and
Ultimate Spider-Man (both of which will be
reviewed as trade paperbacks), the first issue of
Orson Scott Card’s Ultimate Iron Man
miniseries, a number of X-Men: Age of
Apocalypse related titles, a trade paperback
collecting the latest round of What If
titles, and the second Fantastic Four
hardcover collecting the Waid/Weiringo run (which
should read more smoothly than the third and fourth
trade paperbacks it contains, since it was such an
artificial split between the two) from Marvel comics.
DC is offering first issues of Legend and
Luthor: Man of Steel, which could each be
very good. There will also be trade paperbacks
collecting recent issues of Fables,
JLA, Promethea, and Tenjho
Tenge.

“Alien Siege” Discussion
vanyel
writes, I watched Alien Siege tonight (aired
yesterday on SciFi), though it was a close call.
It’s really frustrating when stories have such
interesting possibilities, and completely throw them
away with tired old cliches. vanyel has more to
say, which you can find below.
