New comics blogging: Marvel Ultimate Universe death thoughts!

What should Marvel do with their Ultimate line of comics? I have thoughts on Many A True Nerd.

Because blogging waits for no man, it's Bank Holiday Monday, but I still did a post about comics. Hope those of you in the UK are having a relaxing day off. Condolences to anyone who isn't.

PROCRASTINATORY VINE TIME: Breaking Bad, re-enacted by toys

Another week, another Vine made when I should've been doing something useful. Today, a bunch of toys from my room re-enact the famous "Say My Name" scene from Breaking Bad. They're probably just happy I'm not hurling them across the room anymore.

New TV blogging: Under The Dome on TDF

I take a look at Under The Dome on The Digital Fix. Should you take a chance on another Lost-esque mystery?

Because a couple of the shows I watch are finishing, so I thought, y'know, worth trying something new.

Hobson & Choi #28 - "Suspects On Parade"

Hobson & Choi #28 - "Suspects On Parade"

It's one final run through the suspect list before the first case finally explodes, in "Suspects On Parade"! We're nearly at #30! Gasp!

And we are coming up to the end of August, which means nearly top 30 time (even though there's one more update next week) so votes appreciated as ever. Remember you can vote for individual chapters, not just once for the whole thing.

As hinted in the blurb, there is an exciting (to me) H&C announcement coming next week, although anyone who read my epic 1000th post on this blog might already have a vague clue what's coming. Until then, ta-ta.

New TV review: Dexter

Another week, another mediocre episode of Dexter. At least there are only four left. Review on The Digital Fix.

Coming up later: Hobson & Choi, and I'm a fairly harsh self-critic, but I think we're at least doing better than current Dexter.

New TV review: The Newsroom!

The Newsroom review on The Digital Fix, and this week, it's the unmistakable humming of evil.

Long day of work ahead, and a tag-team of electricians are here to drill holes in my house. Let's do this.

New TV blog: Breaking Bad!

Latest Breaking Bad review up now on Digital Fix! Can they keep the quality up in this final year?

Am posting from the browser on my phone, it's hard work but ultimately worth it to avoid getting out of bed for slightly longer. I think.

PROCRASTINATORY VINE TIME: Man catches toy in net!

Hello. I'm still hoping to get an actual blog post up this week, but I have literally nothing to put up today (no, not even a TV review), so here is a Vine I did last night of me catching an Adipose stress toy in a fishing net. In case it isn't clear enough from the video, I both threw the toy and operated the fishing net with my right hand, as my left was busy operating my phone.



This should give you some idea of the degree of procrastination I'm able to reach when I'm supposed to be writing.



And yes, the video title is a cheap masturbation joke. Don't pretend you're surprised.

Hobson & Choi #27: "Crusty Semen Inspectors"

Hobson & Choi #27: Crusty Semen Inspectors

H&C #27 up now on Jukepop! Hobson turns CSI after the most recent murder, in a chapter I'm delightfully calling "Crusty Semen Inspectors"!

Hopefully you can see what I did there. Can't imagine I'll ever top that chapter title (although don't worry, there's no crusty semen in the actual story.)

The last week has been the biggest week of voting in the entire history of H&C, so ta very much, everyone. And we haven't even reached the end of month rush yet...
