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.

JMS is tempting fate again

Anonymous Coward writes, Over at SciFi wire they
are reporting
that JMS is in negotiations to create a new Babylon 5
series. I love
B5, but I’m a little concerned after watching the last B5
movie
(Legend of the Rangers) that maybe he should leave well
enough
alone.

Weekly Comic Discussion

Highlights of this
week’s shipment
: I’ll be picking up Superman /
Batman
#4, Eternal (the last issue,
thankfully), Exiles #38 (with Chuck Austen
returning), Supreme Power #5 (which is my
current favourite title), and Ultimate
Spider-Man
#50, a jumping on point to an excellent
series. Also in the works: reviews of Essential
Howard the Duck Vol. 1
and Joss Whedon’s
Fray
shouldn’t take too long, and reviews of
Sojourn Vol. 3 and Sojourn Vol. 4
should be up by the end of the month, depending upon
when my copies actually arrive.
