Mitchieville (Free subscription) | yesterday
I came a cross this painting while surfing the net a few months ago. I know nothing about it and was hoping that one of the brainiac readers of Mitchieville might be able to help a guy out and tell me something about it: The uniform looks like it is WWI and helmet appears to be European - likely German or French. There is unit number on the epaulet but I can't make it out. There is also a number on...

In this scene from Adventure Comics #325, Brainiac 5 spouts some pure Grade-A technobabble. Seriously, this is some of the best (or worst) technobabble that I’ve come across. It rivals anything from acknowledged technobabble master Bob Haney. While reading this scene, it occurred to me that despite Brainiac 5 being one of the preeminent [...]

On most Sundays in Hermosa Beach, Calif., patrons of the Comedy & Magic Club have come to expect a couple of things from the popular haunt for Hollywood stand-ups — a two-drink minimum and an hour-long routine from . On his mind tonight: easy, greatest-hits gags about the Menendez brothers, Michael Jackson, and the Spears clan. Dapperly dressed in a blue suit and tie, Leno fires them off as if he's...

Right now I’m getting ready to go see The Dark Knight. As I type this, it’s near 2 am. Unfortunately, my work schedule this week doesn’t give me many liberties in terms of checking this movie out at a reasonable time. Hell, it’s also the reason I’ve been a bit dry on updates lately. So the [...]

Continuing with Tuesday's discussion of just how permanent deaths in Crisis on Infinite Earths have turned out to be, let's dig into the last three issues of the series. Let's start with a shocker: Psimon Getting your brain blasted to bits by Brainiac should have taught him not to keep behind fragile glass, but dude was still walking around with a glass dome in Salvation Run. I'm really not clear on...

Action #865 -- The Toyman may seem to be different, inconsistent characters, but there is only one real Toyman. The others were just life-like toys made by the real Toyman. Action #867 -- Brainiac may seem to be different, inconsistent characters, but there is only one real Brainiac. The others were just life-life creations made by the real Brainiac. I look forward to future Action comics addressing...
