Fan Expo 2017
Dichotomy. Juxtaposition. Privilege. Hope. One wouldn’t necessarily associate all of these words with a gathering of groups of people who are coming together to celebrate their fandoms. But as Toronto’s Fan Expo 2017 came to its conclusion, these are the words that leapt to mind unbidden. Privilege springs to mind, because my co-host and I…
Odd and the Frost Giants (2008) – Neil Gaiman
It’s always a delight to explore a Neil Gaiman book, and though this novella was far too short, it was everything I’d come to expect from this master storyteller.

The Avengers
There’s not much I can say for The Avengers that hasn’t already been said over the weekend. For me it has already entered the pantheon of greatest comic book movies of all time. It’s fun, loud, funny, exciting, and for me, it actively conveyed everything that not only a comic book movie, but a comic…
Cabin In The Woods
Sue and I got to take in a sneak peek of Drew Goddard’s new film Cabin In The Woods last night, with the director in attendance for a post-show Q&A. And the film entertained! It takes the genre we know so well, and gives it a whole new life… The tagline on the poster to…
