Hoping to do a big Nightwing review once I've re-read the arc. But before that, I must share my toy experiences over the past few days. While in ... http://spandexjustice.com/2008/07/02/310 I do like Alex Ross' Krypto: http://spandexjustice.com/2008/06/16/308 I'm always running behind. Wanted to get to this earlier, but better late than never. While reading through last week's haul, there was one panel that amused me more than any others. It's from Rann-Thanagar: Holy War (man, that war is lasting almost as long as other wars...). It shows ... http://spandexjustice.com/2008/06/11/306 Sometimes, there are certain toys that just make no sense, save to the toy executive who came up with the idea.

None really deserve a whole post, but here's some mini-reviews. The Good The Bourne Ultimatum: Wow, a trilogy of movies that's good from the first to the third. You don't see that often enough. This is an ... http://spandexjustice.com/2008/04/26/301 It's that time again: April 9th is CSS Naked Day. So it's time to remove the CSS from the site to show off the nice, plain, mostly semantic markup. For more naked sites, visit the Annual CSS Naked Day website. Perhaps not as glamorous as Talk Like a Pirate Day, but ... http://spandexjustice.com/2008/04/08/300 Another year, another Zombie Easter. For background, you can see what I did in 2007 (a bad Zombie Easter year), and in 2006 (a much better year). Each year, I celebrate the most famous zombie of all: Jesus.
