Did I understand what was going on this time? not really. Did I still love every single minute of it? bet your ass I did!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Well okay I’m like 5 days late- but I’ve got a feeling most of you are still recovering from wednesday night’s diabetic shock! Just in time for the presidential election! I hope y’all are voting! it’s been a pretty awful war this go round- I’m excited to see who wins! For all you international viewers, don’t mind us here- we do this every four years. We spend tons of money that we really don’t have (or say we don’t have) for television advertisements and to bomb people’s mailboxes with full color ads talkin trash about politicians- it’s so awesome. Printing companies and promotional multimedia companies must be absolutely loving all this cash rolling in!

I think was the only person in the world who hadn’t seen the new Iron Man 3 trailer till last night- and I’ll be honest- I was a bit skeptical as to how good it was going to be… go ahead, shake your head at me, I feel like a complete idiot now. There’s only been a few trailers in my life that really take my breathe away, enough that it keeps my eyes open for the entire 30-45-60 seconds without blinking- to the point where they begin to water because my brain thinks I might never close them again.

After consulting with comics guru SIMON DAOUDI, he informed me that the JOKER made his grand re-appearance this week (I don’t get out much!). So I thought it proper to make a card regarding this grandiose event! Have any of you guys n gals ever heard of BOOB GLUE (I’m sure the gals have)? I’m pretty sure that’s not the actual name of the product (yes I googled it, NSFW sites came up-go figure!), but I think you get the idea! After making this card I got to thinking about all the COSMETICS superheroes must wear. I don’t necessarily mean the lipstick, blush, eyeliner etc… How does Catwoman keep her breasts from spilling out of her cat suit?

Woah! Sorry for the delay amigos and amigas! AN APE KIDNAPPED ME AND FLEW ME TO SAN FRAN! Alternative Press Expo was a blast this weekend! For any of you who have never been, or don’t know what it is- LEMME INFORM YA’LLS. APE is a mini convention with big energy. Imagine a con that is 99% artist alley. Its full of underground, independent artists peddling amazingly raw art and comics. There are a slew of already established artist, but for the most part its people that you’ve definitely never heard of – which is a damn shame! The price to get in this year was TEN DOLLHAIRS (10$), or fifteen for both Saturday and Sunday. Yes it was a two day con. Do you really need more? Oh did you go to San Diego Comic Con this year? Well guess what – you could have gotten in FREE (with your old badge), I bet you feel like a dummy now huh? I noticed that a lot people had free goodies to give out, and while the goodies might have been xerox pages of a sample comic, the comics you were getting were pretty amazing.

Remember in the 90’s, when the comic gods were birthing new characters and stories faster than we could consume them? I miss those days. I miss the ammo pouches and 36 gun holsters on an eight foot tall, roided out, blonde vigilante chick. I miss the holofoil covers. Okay I’m lying, I miss those days as much as I miss going to a video store to rent Judge Dredd for SNES only to find out it’s been rented already. I take it back- the holofoil covers… those need to come back. ASAP. But really, Marvel… DC… where’s the new BLOOD? I appreciate that they’re putting all these great writers and artists together to make magic happen, but wouldn’t it be so much nicer if we could make NEW magic? Why are you still dumping money into the same characters? Because it’s a sure bet to yields profits, I know. Because the people demand it, possibly. Because it’s necessary- no.

I wonder how often Tony Stark upgrades his suit? Or I wonder if he pays other people to do it for him? That could probably be a security risk. For him and Pepper. AMIGOS, AMIGAS. Is anybody as uninterested in iPhone 5 release as me? Before I continue, lemme set the record straight– I LOVE APPLE PRODUCTS. I dream of sleeping on beds made of MacBook Pros with the retina display’s glow keeping me warm. Okay that’s a bit dramatic, but you get the idea. I loved my iPhone 3GS so much so that I paid full price for a factory unlocked Iphone 4S (its not cheap!).

I knew that somehow, some way I was going to make a Bane comic but I wasn’t entirely sure how. It came pretty simply enough though when my DnD group and I kept saying different movie lines in Bane’s voice, along with that speech, pretty much all night every time we get together since the movie came out.I have since then have begun to integrate that speech into my everyday life, which may or may not have got out of hand after the line, “You merely adopted pooping in the litter box; I was born in it, moulded by it” was uttered to my cat earlier today. Seriously though, never come it Arizona. It’s unnecessarily hot here.

So the debate on who’s right in the great Avengers vs. X-Men run is still running hot here at Comic Impact. Pat prefers to go with the X-Men and Simon with the Avengers, personally I’m more a sit back and wait for the whole thing to blow over kind of guy.Though I do have to say that seeing Spider-Man getting beaten to a bloody pulp in the last issue was terribly heartbreaking. I was so worried I almost started rooting for the Avengers….almost.

We here at Comic Impact were sadden by the news of the events that occurred in Aurora, Colorado at the Mid-Night Premiere of Batman: TheDark Knight Rises. The actions of a single, disturbed person changed lives forever. This also, however allowed for people to Rise and be heroes in their own right and it doesn’t have to stop with them. Take time during your lunch hour or after work and donate blood or give to any of the following official funds listed below. You don’t have to have a cape and or cowl to be a hero!

Wow, is it already time for the first comic? This is going to be exciting! So I met Simon and Sheldon for the first time in person during San Diego Comic Con. While I have known them for quite some time and talk them both on a constant basis, there was littleI could but save staring at them awkwardly. I would like to say I’m above such a thing and that I’m much more socially capable than that, but I’m not. I’m really, really not.
