from the underground

Just some quick links I wanted to share, as I maintain my usual holding pattern.

New Comics Day, the crazy new mock-comic book news site is gathering some momentum. My latest contributions include a review of Disney's latest Kingdom Hearts game (guest starring some of the Marvel Universe's finest), and also a look at Diamond Steve Geppi's most recent financial struggles. Only the truth could be more shocking, believe you me.

On a far more serious note- I have started a blog dedicated to the ongoing memories of my elder sister Rebecca. A victim of domestic violence, Becc was a writer in her own right who never had the chance to rightly shine. Eventually I will include private musings of days long gone by, photos, news bites concerning Domestic Violence Awareness, as well as many more samplings of her own work. She was truly a one in a trillion interesting human being, and my own needs in battling domestic violence aside, I hope to share some of who she was (and who she could have been) here.

And while I am on the subject of crusades, I endorse this effort 23 zillion percent, Clifford Meth's Sidekick Foundation. If only something less politically biased than the Hero Initiative had existed for Steve Perry.
