As you probably noticed, we’re having a really rough week. Our next update will be Thursday. In the meantime, go to Free Comic Book Day this Saturday! NotHayama’s working a kid’s library branch of it, so I expect children will be swarming her for Owlie and possibly dragging her into a pile for some severe […]

Oh my God. Look at this: http://blog.newsarama.com/2008/04/22/another-look-at-the-manga-style-wolverine-x-men/#more-7927
No no! Even better, look at this:

I didn’t ask Anzu or Del Ray or even Newsarama if I could post that, so I may have to take it down later. But look at it! And then go read the article, and the absolutely precious comments.
Can’t all geeks just get […]

So I guess Scott Pilgrim may actually become a movie. With, like, Michael Cera. I think we should try to get in the film as extras, since it’ll be filmed down the street and NotHayama’s boss is one of the characters in the comic. I wanna be one of the girls in the library who […]

I couldn’t decide what to review for today - I’ve left all the exciting new titles for NotHayama’s next few updates. So I decided to do something new: a review of a company, specifically Netcomics. I work for Tokyopop, DMP, and Wizard, and all these reviews are written for free, so no worries - there […]

Whoa…

Still not entirely sure what happened to the past few weeks. Sorry for the black-out; I’ll have an update on Thursday, promise. And then we’ll be back on a more regular schedule.
In the meantime, it’s a great time to be a geek (especially a female one) BECAUSE:
1.) Antique Bakery is being made into a 12-episode […]

Actually…

…this week’s update will be on Thursday instead of Tuesday. Sorry.
In other news: NotHayama practically didn’t move all of Sunday, since she was curled up in a chair with a DS and a new copy of Professor Layton. I take it that means the game is as addictive as claimed. She had to charge the […]

I know we don’t talk much about yaoi/BL at this place, but I just heard that 801 Media bought the license to Uki Ogasawara’s Black Sun.

When I first read Black Sun, my heart sunk to my stomach. I stared at the floor awhile, then I went out for a walk, but ghostly images of the […]

Updates on stuff

I guess I’ll do a review or essay or something on Death Note now; I’ve practically written one in the comments section of last post already, but that’s lame - I need something more organized. Time to replace my mouth with money, or however the expression goes.
I’ve also read a lot more of Let Dai […]

We’ve never talked about it on this site–I meant to ages ago, but now it’s so popular that my opinion will probably just be redundant–but I think Death Note is great. The manga is great, the movies both had fantastic original endings (totally didn’t see them coming), and the anime, although definitely flawed in a […]

Young Magician update

Volume 10 of The Young Magician came out yesterday. It is SO AWESOME it made me scream. I then gave it to NotHayama; she read it and also screamed.
Everyone should be reading this comic. Well, okay, everyone of age (it’s rated M because guts fly everywhere and they like to use the F-bomb in later […]
