San Diego Comic Con, Part 1 – The Panels
I promised detailed blogs about Comic Con and by golly, I aim to keep that promise. There’s just one problem. There’s waaaay too much for just one post. I tried. I’ve gone through approx. 1000 pictures (no joke) and narrowed them down to the best of the best and even then I was left with…

7 Guys Worth Nerdgasaming Over
My sister-in-law and I were at WonderCon on Friday and somehow we got on the topic of “Cheat Sheets.” And no, I’m not talking about the school variety. The “Cheat Sheet” I’m referring to is a list of people you’re allowed to get it on with and your significant other can’t hold it against you. …

As the pressure heats up for Fox to let Nathan buy the rights to Firefly, I realized that there too is another never-ending battle that shall live on in the annals of sci-fi history: Why Malcolm Reynolds is better than Han Solo….. and vice versa. I was going to take sides, but then I realized…

Malcolm Reynolds…shiny…
Malcolm Reynolds… Even the name is sexy. I’m a Star Trek fan, I know a sexy Captain when I see one. As much as I heart Jean-Luc and his perfect bald head, he’s not exactly a “bad boy” and y’all know we girls love us a bad boy. Mal is someone you can love and…
