Retconning My Brain: A Couple of Origins
http://retconningmybrain.blogspot.com/2009/11/couple-of-origins.html
Pop culture with 33% less guilt. Wednesday, November 4, 2009. A Couple of Origins. I left my comics at home this morning, so I can't do a real fitting review of my haul. That's okay, because this was a small haul week for me. I caught up on Red Tornado. So the rest of the titles I got, briefly because I want to focus on two of them (and give a third one its own entry):. Remember how I was excited that there was in independent press doing a Greek god story? Black Widow: Unholy Origins. Time you're writing...

Retconning My Brain: Dear Comics: Stop Killing People
http://retconningmybrain.blogspot.com/2011/06/dear-comics-stop-killing-people.html
Pop culture with 33% less guilt. Monday, June 13, 2011. Dear Comics: Stop Killing People. But somehow I'd missed the news that Bucky Barnes was dead. When I finally found out, it hit my like a sucker punch to the gut. I wrote about why I love Bucky in the role of Captain America. But, nope. Had to kill him. Does this change anything? Help to character growth? Steve already lost Bucky once. The Avengers already lost Captain America. Natasha has lost lovers. This isn't new. I won't compare DC's treatment o...

Retconning My Brain: July 2011
http://retconningmybrain.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Pop culture with 33% less guilt. Friday, July 8, 2011. Our Love is Real. Back in the day, right after Ellen Degeneres came out, her sitcom did an episode wherein Ellen was essentially transported to a world run by straight people, where gay people were the minority. It was meant to be social commentary, I guess, but I was a teenager at the time and the main thing I remember thinking was that it wasn't very funny. So I gave in and bought it last night. Rave, I may go to digital-only when I start reading r...

Retconning My Brain: Wednesday Haul! Lots of girls, a few zombies, and a woman.
http://retconningmybrain.blogspot.com/2009/10/wednesday-haul-lots-of-girls-few.html
Pop culture with 33% less guilt. Wednesday, October 21, 2009. Lots of girls, a few zombies, and a woman. So just like everyone else in the Comicverse (I blame Joss Whedon for everything being a 'verse now), here's the first of my official weekly haul responses. Bad first, because I want to end on high notes. It wasn't really bad. It was just. there. I picked it up because of the new writing team, and because I like the idea. Of Azrael), so I'll stick it in the middle. To see anything else. Sigh. ...And I...

Retconning My Brain: Sucker Punch: A Dreamer's Nightmare
http://retconningmybrain.blogspot.com/2011/03/sucker-punch-dreamers-nightmare.html
Pop culture with 33% less guilt. Friday, March 25, 2011. Sucker Punch: A Dreamer's Nightmare. I just got back from seeing Sucker Punch. Yep, opening day by myself. I'm working on getting over the idea that the movies need to be a social event, especially since I can just come home and be social about it with people on the internet. While I was in the theater, a friend of mine tweeted a link to an article at i09 about how terrible the movie is. Spoilers both at that link and in the rest of my post.].

http://retconningmybrain.blogspot.com/2009/07/in-time-for-july-4th.html
Pop culture with 33% less guilt. Thursday, July 2, 2009. In time for July 4th. I give up on Technorati. I'll just hope word of mouth and various links get me page reads. Because I need attention. Speaking of attention, I did not. Buy Captain America Reborn. I think that maybe I'm the only person on the planet that isn't excited that Steve Rogers is back. I've waxed on (and off, Miyagi-san! About how I'd really like to see comics moving forward. Moving forward, so I won't go into it again. My Captain Amer...

Retconning My Brain: River Song and Lois Lane; Don't Call Them Cougars. They Might Hurt You.
http://retconningmybrain.blogspot.com/2011/03/river-song-and-lois-lane-dont-call-them.html
Pop culture with 33% less guilt. Wednesday, March 30, 2011. River Song and Lois Lane; Don't Call Them Cougars. They Might Hurt You. With less than one month until the return of Doctor Who. A new trailer was released today. There's a lot of awesomeness right there, but mostly there's River Song. Because River Song is amazing. (If you don't like River Song, feel free to tell me why. Try not to base it on Rose Tyler, though, because then I will pay absolutely no attention to you.). Fans And, sure, the Docto...

Retconning My Brain: Asari: Bluer than your matriarch's Orion slave girls!
http://retconningmybrain.blogspot.com/2011/06/asari-bluer-than-your-matriarchs-orion.html
Pop culture with 33% less guilt. Thursday, June 23, 2011. Asari: Bluer than your matriarch's Orion slave girls! I was originally going to title this post "Asari: the unGender" before I realized that my whole point is that they're not. Whatever, I've been waiting fifteen years to make a 7-Up unCola joke; it was too good an. See, one of my all-time favorite games is. Anyway, I'm here to talk about some asari. You want to talk about asari? Says "male and female have no meaning for us.". Basically, "the only...
