The Ettatorial for the Week of 9-23-09
A large week of releases this week, and something weird happened. After reading all my purchases, I honestly had a problem picking out the best of the week. Once I picked one out, another issue made the argument that it was just as good, and just as deserving. That just kept happening, and I just [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 9-16-09
A large and diverse group of new releases this week, making the decision making for my pick a bit more difficult. Making the decision harder yet was the fact nothing really immediately stood out, with the week’s books all being good solid releases.

New Orange Juice Could Change the World
A Preview of Realtime Worlds Upcoming MMO: APB
There are two kinds of people in this world.

Now some of them want to start charging you to [...]

First up this week is Secret Six #13. This issue [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 9-02-09
A very small week of releases for me this week, only two in total. But, considering both were excellent, I’m satisfied. And while I feel bad about picking one over the other, I just had to. So without further ado, here we go.
Your pick this week is Incognito #6. The final issue of this fantastic [...]
Play Him Off, Keyboard Sam
GTA4: The Ballad of Gay Tony Trailer
The Lost and Damned may not have been quite as good as GTA IV, but that hasn’t stopped me from being pretty excited about the next installment in Liberty City. It looks like Rockstar has some new tricks (parachutes!) and a good story [...]
