Brien Michael Bendis<\/a> is a god. I’ve been a fan of his writing for quite a while now, like many others I discovered his work through ‘Powers’ from Image Comics. The first TPB “Who Killed Retro Girl” completly hooked me and after reading it I went for some of his older stuff, “Fire”, “Jinx”, “AKA Goldfish” and his more recent Marvel stuff of “Ultimate Spiderman”, “Ultimate Marvel Team-Up”, the wonderful MAX series “Alias”. I’ve mentioned him a couple of times before in this blog, but the second Powers TPB “Roleplay” really cinched it. The man is the best writer writing at the moment and yes that includes Alan Moore (although I do love Top Ten). It’s worth noting however that Gaiman<\/a> is not doing comics ar the mo. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

In other news, just reading over on Dark Horizons<\/a> LotR has already make enough to cover the costs of the entire trilogy. That’s impressive. Speaking of, reading and really enjoying the book at the moment. Quite surprised at the large part Gollum plays in “The Twin Towers” but really liking the character. Roll on the next movie.<\/p>\n

Stay in last night for New Years, we had a nice dinner and then watched a movie called “State and Main<\/a>“, enjoyable comdey type thing, with the always excellent Willaim H Macy<\/a> as the director a movie with a few small location problems and Philip Seymour Hoffman<\/a> as the writer.<\/p>\n

And so my boss knows about this now…good thing the archives ain’t available \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
