As you may be able to tell, my formal training is not as a writer. My degrees are in physics and education. In my day job, I work in supplemental education, which is why my productivity is lowest when report card season hits.

Weekly Comic Discussion

This week has some mighty fine stuff coming,
including Daredevil #60, Exiles
#47
, Fantastic Four #513, and
Ultimate Spider-Man #59. On the trade
paperback front, we’ve got Essential X-Men Vol.

, which begins with the issues that bracket the
Secret War from way back when.

“Smallville” season two on DVD today

Just a reminder to collectors that the second season
of Smallville is released on DVD today, the
day before the season three finale airs. I’ll try to
pick up a copy some time this week. If you don’t
feel like leaving the house, you can always get it
from Amazon.com,
Amazon.ca,
or an assortment of other online retailers. With
summer coming up, there will be very little worth
watching on TV, so we can continue doing these little
DVD plugs if you people are interested. (We can even
make them considerably longer.)
