Well wait no longer! Tonight we had the opportunity to Instant Message about last nights Gotham premier. Premie? Premiere. Thanks for letting me write the…

Marvel Cinematic Universe Podcast (World’s Best Podcast)
About a week before The Avengers came out in theatres I participated in a World’s Best Podcast discussion about the Marvel Cinematic Universe films. We discussed Hulk (briefly), The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man, Iron Man 2, Thor, and Captain America. We also got into why the Marvel movies seem to be outdoing the DC movies (with…

My birthday present to you…a Batgirl photoshoot!
Nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh – BATGIRL! Tomorrow is my birthday (don’t even bother asking, I’m not going to tell you how old I am) so I decided to give YOU, my awesome readers, a gift for sticking with me for the past year and a half.

Normally I would reserve judgment until a movie comes out but after seeing the trailer before Harry Potter, I’ve pretty much seen the whole movie. Ryan Reynolds was not…

Unicorn (the comic book villain, not the horse)
I was sitting at my desk today and for some reason I started contemplating the Cold War and where we stand in our relationship with various foreign entities. Naturally, that made me think of Unicorn. Oh, Cold War, along with threat of nuclear attack you brought along a vast array of Superheroes and Supervillains designed…

X-Men Series II = greatest trading cards ever
It might shock you to learn this. But I was, at one time, the owner of a complete set of X-Men Series II trading cards. It’s true. I also collected baseball cards, because like any self-respecting tomboy I played baseball, not softball. Softball is for chicks. But Series II was my most favorite set of…
