		<description><![CDATA[When I was a kid, I would read comic book adaptations and crappy novelizations of movies that I didn&#8217;t get to see in the theater. A majority of my childhood was videotape free, and back in the day, the window of time for films to get released on video was huge, sometimes 8-12 months. I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Found this in my old 1975 copy of Man-Thing #20. How bizarre! Apparently you could get extra cash in the &#8217;70s by sleling engraved replicas of Social Security cards, complete with a 10 year calendar that would be good until 1985! WHOOO HOOO! What purpose would these even serve? And what fools would trust strangers [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I was a kid, going to the corner market to get a comic book was a big deal, and sometimes you were in such a hurry that the cover sold you on the mag more than the pages inside. Marvel Comics was a horrible offender of not being able to judge a book by [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Clearly in response to Disney acquiring Marvel, Warner Brothers has announced that it will turn its DC Comics property into DC Entertainment. But while Disney&#8217;s move was largely a licensing synergy which will leave the day to day business of making Marvel&#8217;s comic books unchanged, WB is putting it&#8217;s own corporate control over DC&#8217;s Editorial [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been thinking a lot about Casper lately and what a bad deal he&#8217;s got. First of all, he&#8217;s a ghost of a kid, which means he didn&#8217;t get to live much of a life, probably dying before he turned 6. Instead of going to Heaven and playing around in the clouds, he has to [...]]]></description>

I was looking at some random DC comic at Borders today and was depressed to see an obituary for one of my favorite artists, Marshall Rogers. Rogers had a weird and [...]]]></description>
