After reading the 1st 5 issues i think of it as "Dexter" mash up with "John Wick".The comic starts out with Victor and his girlfriend Virginia who are on a road trip and seems like they have 2 loves sex and doughnuts.The couple stops at a small gas station for doughnuts and gas when Virginia is harassed by a group of men Victor flips out and attacks the men and leaves with his lady.One of the men he beat up turns out be the son of crime boss Thaddeus Belliveau who even though embarrassed by his son's actions decides to get back at Victor by kidnapping him and Virginia.Along with Thaddeus we learn about Victors pass and his set of skills and he gives Victor a chance to use those skills for him or Victor won't see Virginia again.This may sound like a familiar story there is a twist...spoilers alert.....Virginia is a plastic sex doll yes you read right. seriously go pick up this comic by the 5th issue your mind will be blown..no pun intended.<br>
So don't judge Victor hey love is love...and the writing and art goes great together and i cant wait to see where this story goes.<br>
Until next time my friends stay geeky and hungry.</p>

This year's celebrations biggest thing will be the upcoming movie episode 8 "The Last Jedi" the director and some of the actors will be there and they will be showing a trailer on Friday of that weekend. Don't despair my friends if like me you can't make it to Orlando there's still a way to be part of it like you're right there.The Star Wars channel on YouTube will be streaming live through out the weekend so you'll see everything as it happens. There are also websites and podcast that will keep you up to date like the official Star Wars site,Blackgirlnerds,Brews and Blasters,WSTR podcast and TheForce.net to name a few. I'm sure there also be a ton of pictures and videos on Instagram just use the hash tags like #StarWarsCelebration #SWCO.So if you're stuck at work or a family event this weekend you can still be part of Star Wars Celebration and may the force be with you.<br>
Until next time my friends stay geeky and hungry.</p>

In the comics Mr Terrific "Micheal Holt" is one of the smartest people in the DC universe.He has the ability to pick up and retain complex skills and abilities that would take other people their whole lives to master. He's a black belt in 6 different martial arts and a Olympic gold medalist in the decathlon and is invisible to electronic detection. I knew the show would "water him down" but damn.<br>
The version we got was a nerdy assistant to Felicity who was crazy smart which I was cool with thinking ok he's gonna get smarter and smarter as the series goes on. They showed us his orbs like in the comics,the "T" on his face even the "Fair Play" on his jacket so it was looking good.They giveth and they take it away,Curtis Holt instead of Michael Holt was an Olympian but a bronze medalist instead of gold that might sound like a small thing to some but why do that in the 1st place.On the show he's always getting his butt kicked,acting goofy and whining it breaks my heart to watch this. The latest episode Wild Dog,O Dog,Mad Dog 20 20 whatever his name is got into Mr Terrific's head c'mon son really? Wait he does have one impressive power dude can braid his hair in seconds in one second he's in full 'fro in the base before a mission the next he's on the mission with his hair braided he needs to quit the hero game and go be a hairdresser,he could make a ton of money.<br>
Don't get me wrong I like Echo Kellum as an actor it's just what the writers are doing to the character, like some people have said they should've stayed with him as the goofy tech guy and not touched the whole Mr Terrific thing.So here's hoping they fix this but Arrow has been constantly disappointing it's viewers.<br>
So until next time my friends stay geeky and hungry. </p>

2017 looks like it's going to be a good at the movies. Personally I'm looking forward to Guardians of the Galaxy vol.2,Spider-Man Homecoming,Thor: Ragnarok,Wonder Women and of course Star Wars: The Last Jedi.<br>
Comicbooks I'm looking forward to are basically ones I started last year Powerman and Iron Fist,Black Panther,Doctor Strange,Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps and the book that surprised me in 2016 Superman.<br>
As far as video games I can't wait to get my hands on God of War,Injustice 2,Ghost Recon: Wildlands,Marvel vs Capcom: Infinte,For Honor and Spider-Man. <br>

You may or may have not noticed I haven't posted anything on this blog in a long time well between family visiting from different times,my work schedule,traveling during holidays my "geekdom" has fallen to the wayside. I fell behind on my comics,tv shows and haven't touched my PS4.I was able to see Rogue One a Star Wars story which is already in my top 3 of Star Wars movies and got to sneak away to watch the Doctor Who Christmas Special.<br>
Now that the holidays are over and there won't be anymore visits from people or trips anywhere for awhile I can get back to it.I plan on catching up on my comics,give my PS4 the attention it deserves and posting more and redesigning this blog.There are some stuff that's in the planning stages that I can't talk about right now but hopefully will be coming soon and it should be fun.<br>
As I get my "Geek back" until next time my friends stay geeky and hungry.</p>

My favorite thing to do on that weekend is to attend Dragoncon in Atlanta,unlike other scifi/comicbook conventions Dragoncon's main thing is cosplay which is fans dress as their favorite character from comics,animation,video games etc.<br>
I saw alot of cool cosplay of course there were a ton of Harley Quinns, Deadpools and Star Wars but there were also some unique characters so I'm sharing a list of my top 10 cosplayers from the weekend and in no particular order. <br>
10 John Snow from Game of Thrones 9.Riddler and Scarecrow 8. Assassin's Creed 7. Stormtrooper with cookies 6. 11 from Stranger Things 5. Sinestro Corps 4.Luke Cage and Storm 3. Michael Phelps 2.One One from Game of Thrones 1. Granny as Harley Quinn <br>
Hope you guys enjoyed the pics and if I left you out please don't be mad.<br>
Until next time my friends stay geeky and hungry.</p>

Over the years the popularity of the series has grown immensely. I've ran into Whovians in many different places not just at comicbook/ scifi conventions and different sex,race and ages especially when I'm wearing one of my Doctor Who t-shirts.A gas station attendant in Kentucky, a cashier at a foodstore, teenager at the cornbread festival, a group of 20 something girls at a farmer's market and while walking into a restaurant a young man ask to shake my hand after seeing my t-shirt.Once in Detroit I noticed a lady across the bar that kept looking over at me and my ego thought she was checking me out,she ran up to me as I was leaving to say she liked my shirt and how the 8th Doctor was her favorite lol.Thats another thing whenever Whovians meet the 1st question is who is your Doctor? and the answer is either the name of the actor or the number like mine is the 10th Doctor or David Tennant the actor who played him.<br>
Recently my wife and I went on a cruise and while waiting in line a kid about 5-6 years old gave me a fist bump when he saw my t-shirt.During the cruise I met a gentleman from England who told me a cool story about going home and running into an army of cybermen walking down the street then he realized they were filming an episode of Doctor Who.Once in the locker room at work a coworker said "I need to go home and regenerate" we both laughed while people around us didn't know what was so funny.<br>
So you never know a cashier,a teacher,policeman,your neighbor or even your personal doctor might actually be a Whovian.<br>
Until next time my friends stay geeky and hungry. </p>

SyFy channel is doing a live one hour show from Comiccon at 8pm est. from Thursday July 21st to Saturday the 23rd. hosted by actor Wil Arnett. If you have Periscope app there are lots of people broadcasting live like Jamie creator of Blackgirlnerds podcast and blog. On YouTube you can just type in Comiccon 2016 or checkout channels like Nerdist,Emergency Awesome,Andre "Black Nerd",DC entertainment,Marvel entertainment,IGN to name a few,and of course I'll post stuff here.<br>
So take it from me someone who's wanted to go for years there are ways to keep up with it but I'm not giving up on traveling to "Nerd Mecca" for a live experience.<br>
Until next time my friends stay geeky and hungry!</p>

Danny Rand was a orphan who ended up in the far away mysterious city of K'un Lun where he learned their mystical martial arts and as his name implies he can channel his " Chi" to make his hands a powerful weapons. Years later he moved back to America and discovered his farther was owner of Rand Corporation that he took over but still rather spend his time being the hero Iron Fist.The two became partners known as Heroes for Hire until eventually going separate ways.<br>
David Walker and Sanford Greene have reunited the duo in the new series if you like movies like Lethal Weapon,48 hrs,etc you'll like this book .The dynamic between the two is fun,Danny is all too excited to team up with his old partner while Luke is very reluctant now that he's a husband and farther,spoilers for those of you who watch Jessica Jones. Walker's writing style is funny and realistic and full of great lines like Iron Fist's "I fart mystical powers" or Power Man's "Fiddle Faddle". Green's art is unlike any I've seen and I've been reading comics since the 70's...yeah yeah you do the math. Unlike some artist he doesn't have a "cookie cutter" way of drawing body's each character has their own shape and face which is refreshing.I highly recommend this series which is only on issue 2 and from what I've heared from a interview Walker and Greene did on a podcast there's something big about to happen in the Marvel Universe and it involves Power Man and Iron Fist so jump onboard now while it's still early.<br>

Don't let the words "used books" scare you off I have yet to find a book that wasn't in almost perfect condition,no torn covers or missing pages.<br>
Over the years I've found some great stuff if it was old stories I once read now collected in a trade,classic stories I never got around to reading or stories I've heard about from friends or someone talked about on a podcast. If you're a fan of the show The Walking Dead and want to check out the comicbook version it's alot less expensive and quicker to get the trades from a used bookstore instead of trying to pick up the individual issues. Luckily I've found some good ones like Darwyn Cooke's New Frontier, Frank Miller's Ronin and a few "outside the box" gems, Matt Fraction and Chip Zdarsky's Sex Criminals,Gerard Way and Gabriel Ba' James Jean's Umbrella Academy and the Luna brothers The Sword.<br>
Now don't get me wrong I still buy individual issues of certain series but do yourself a favor and check out a used bookstore ,you might find someone's "sloppy seconds " that you like!<br>
Until next time my friends stay geeky and hungry!</p>

I didn't see all the costumes over the weekend but the ones I did see were pretty cool and a few people really thought outside the box.The following is a Top 10 of the cosplay I saw in no particular order.<br>
10. G.I.Joe<br>
9.Elf Princess <br>
8. Medieval Batman v Superman <br>
7.Twisty the clown from American Horror stories <br>
6. Mandalorian Deadpool and Mandalorian on vacation <br>
5. Psylocke<br>
4.Wonder Woman<br>
3.Riddler,Harley Quinn and Joker<br>
2.Rey from Force Awakens <br>
1.Dragon Ball Z Spider-Man and Silk </p>

Gillen has written a big movie style story more than just Vader trying to find Luke,we get a "Ocean's 11" type caper and one of my favorite scenes is when Vader figures out Luke is his son.The way Vaders dialogue is written you can't help but hear James Earl Jones voice in your head as you read along.<br>
Larroca's art is so detailed his panels at the beginning of each book is like the start of a Star Wars movie.Even with the mask on you can kinda tell what Darth Vader is thinking by the way he draws him.We meet alot of new characters through out this story my favorites are Triple Zero and BeeTee 2 droids Vader makes,they're evil versions of C3P0 and R2D2.All Triple Zero is interested in is torturing and killing and his dialogue is humorous in a dark kinda way.<br>
I highly recommend you check out this series it's alot more than you may think and you get to see some of what happened between the 1st movie "A New Hope" and "Empire Strikes Back".<br>
Until next time my friends stay geeky and hungry. </p>

The show stars Rose Mclver as Liv Moore,Malcolm Goodwin as Detective Clive Babineaux,Rahul Kohli as Dr.Ravi Charkrab,Robert Buckley as Major Lillywhite and David Anders as Blaine DeBeers.<br>
The story starts out with uptight med student Liv reluctantly going to a party and like most parties a zombie outbreak happens and Liv is killed or so we think.The next morning Liv crawls out of a body bag and slowly figures out she's a zombie.In a short time she discovers that as long as she eats brains she'll appear "normal" and holds off going full zombie mode.Fast forward we see Liv has pushed away her family and fiancee Major Lillywhite yes that's his name and she quit med school and took a job at the police morgue where she has easy access to brains. A side effect of eating brains is that Liv takes on the personality of the person and their memories.She learns to use this to help Det.Clive Babineaux with his cases and explains to him she's pshyic. We later find out that the zombie outbreak was caused by a tainted drug and the dealer Blaine DeBeers is also now a zombie and has gone from dealing drugs to dealing brains to anyone who can afford it and wants to stay looking "normal",while Dr.Charkrab who knows of Liv"s "condition" is working on a cure to help her and others like her and yes there are a good number of zombies living in Seattle <br>
The show is very well written and the chemistry between the actors are great like with Liv and Det. Babineaux and you might find yourself jealous of the "bromance" between Major and Dr.Charkrab who have become best friends and roommates. Each character has developed and we keep learning more about them even "bad guy" Blaine I hope we get to see more of Det. Babineaux's background and private life as the show goes on. This is a totally fresh take on the whole "zombie thing" without being goofy and you don't have to had read the comicbook to know what's going on. <br>
It airs Tuesday night at 9pm on the CW and  it's just started it's 2nd season. Give it a try and you don't have to be into comicbooks or zombies to enjoy this show.<br>
So until next time my friends stay geeky and hungry. </p>

Like most big events in the DC universe the war ends up on earth so of course our heroes have to jump in.<br>
Geoff Johns has become one of my favorite writers in comics and his work on this book keeps me coming back for more.What makes this issue so special is when the "new god" Metron shows up in his chair.Metron observes what goes on in the universe and his chair has the answers to everything.The Justice League try to get answers from him about Darkseid and the Anti-Monitor but he refuses so Batman being Batman throws him off the chair and jumps on.Batman gains Metron's powers and his 1st question is "Who killed my parents? " the chair tells him Joe Chill who all fanboys and fangirls known already then he ask the ultimate question....."Whats the Joker's true name".<br>
As readers we don't see the answer just Batman's reaction from it...."No! that's not possible!"<br>
So now Geoff Johns has screwed with our minds! What name did the chair say because it seems to be someone Batman knows. So unless Mr Johns and DC comics decide to reveal the answer this just adds to the Joker's "mythology".<br>
Then there's the last page a full page spread of Batman sitting in the chair proclaiming "Im a God now!"....oh oh.<br>

This time of year everyone has their favorite thing to do like boating, hitting the beach or pool,family bbqs or hanging out at a ballpark watching a baseball game. I like those things too but my all time favorite past time is sitting outside reading comics having a drink maybe a cigar and listening to podcast. <br>
Yes on a nice summer day you'll usually find me under a tree or on porch with a small stack of comics or a trade paper back some type of adult beverage enjoying the latest adventures of my favorite costumed and non costumed heroes and anti-heroes.I know when most people read they like complete quiet,not me I love to listen to podcast about comics,scifi movies,tv shows etc especially if the topic is a book I'm reading or thinking about reading or a movie or tv show I like or even dislike. I have a few regular podcast I listen to but every now and then I get sent a link to a new one I'll add a list of a few of my favorite ones for you to check out .For me it's a great way to relax on a nice summer day and they say geeks don't know how to enjoy the outdoors. <br>

Because of that I sometimes come up with some crazy stuff in the mornings and I'll share 2 examples,these aren't the healthiest of meals so you might want to consult your doctor before you try any of them.<br>
The 1st one came about one night at work craving a smoked sausage once I got home I felt like having breakfast too so "Bam!", Smoked sausage wrapped in bacon and topped with a fried egg. I wrapped a smoked sausage with 2 thick slices of bacon and placed it in the broiler on low as that was cooking I fried a egg for just a few minutes sunny side up.When the " bacon sausage" was done I placed it in a warm bun and laid the egg on top,as far as condiments you can use whatever you like. I know it sounds weird but it was so good.<br>
Another night I was in the mood for a grill cheese sandwich and then thought about french toast so of course I combined the two.I mixed 2 eggs with a little milk,soaked 2 slices of bread in it then placed them on a hot skillet with melted butter until both sides were golden brown. Next I put a few slices of cheese on one slice of french toast then put the other slice of french toast on top and smashed it down,flipped it over and smashed it down again. Once the cheese had melted I put the "French Toast Grill Cheese" on a plate and covered it with a little butter,cinnamon and syrup,Mmmmm it was good!<br>
Trust me either one of these will make you sleep like a baby.So next time you're going to make breakfast think outside the box you might come up with something fun and delicious.<br>

The next few weeks I'll "celebrate" the anniversary by posting things like his infamous moments to what might be his origin and maybe ending.<br>

It wasn't an exact adaptation of the comic but each episode was so well done the storyline, fight scenes and great actors like the lead Stephen Amell and costars like David Ramsey, Emily Bett Rickards, Paul Blackthorne and John Barrowman. One of my favorite things about the show was the " easter eggs " would pop up every episode that would give a nod to the comics. <br>
Arrow took a more grounded look at the world of super heroes and super villains and it worked.I don't know what happened but the last 2 seasons the show has changed one thing is the writers started to force Laurel an unpopular character on the fans as the new Black Canery it's nothing personal against the actress Katie Cassidy playing her it's just how the character was written rubs fans the wrong way.John Diggle started out as the Arrow's right hand man and conscience but lately he's been reduced to a back ground character driving the " heroes " around in a van. . . think about that for a minute. <br>
I'll do my best to stick around to see if it gets better like I did for Agents of SHIELD which has become a great show to watch but the producers and writers are making it tough for me to stick around. I can't remember the last time I've seen "easter eggs " in a episode. I was excited to that my favorite DC villain Ra's al Ghul would be the new " big bad " on the show, then they changed him from being a centuries year old bad ass to the name just being a title handed down every so often.. . really ? <br>
With shows like Flash out there that spun off from Arrow I don't see why I should waste my time on a show that for what ever reason has declined in my and alot of people's eyes. Don't get me wrong I love Arrow and I'm hoping for the best it's just becoming frustrating to watch some times so let's see how this plays out and if they turn it around to a great show again. <br>

I figured I'd share it with you and I hope you get the same from it as I did.<br>
There was once a stonecutter,who was dissatisfied with himself and his position in life.<br>
One day he passed a wealthy merchant's house and through the open gateway,saw many fine possessions and important visitors. "How powerful that merchant must be!" thought the stonecutter. He became very envious and wished that he could be like the merchant, then he would no longer have to live the life of a mere stonecutter.<br>
To his great surprise he suddenly became the merchant,enjoying more luxuries and power than he had ever dreamed of,envied and detested by those less wealthy than himself.But soon a high official passed by carried by soldiers beating gongs. Everyone no matter how wealthy had to bow low before the procession. "How powerful that official is!" he thought. "I wish that I could be a high official!" Then he became the high official,carries everywhere in his sedan chair feared and hated by the people all around,who had to bow down before him as he passed.It was a hot summer day and the official felt uncomfortable in the sticky sedan chair. He looked up at the sun it shone proudly in the sky unaffected by his presence. "How powerful the sun is!"  "I wish that I could be the sun!"<br>
Then he became the sun shining fiercely down on everyone,scorching fields,cursed by farmers and laborers.But a huge black cloud moved between him and the earth so his light could no longer shine. "How powerful that storm cloud is!" "I wish that I could be a cloud!" Then he became the cloud,flooding fields and villages,shouted at by everyone. But soon he found he was being pushed away by a great force and realized it was the wind. "How powerful it is!" "I wish I could be the wind!" Then he became the wind,blowing tiles off roofs,uprooting trees,hated and feared by all below him. But after a while he ran up against something that would not move a huge towering stone. "How powerful that stone is!" "I wish I could be a stone!"<br>
Then he became the stone, more powerful than anything else on earth.But as he stood there he heard a hammer pounding aa chisel into the solid rock,and felt himself being changed. "What could be more powerful than me I,the stone?"<br>
He looked down and saw far below him the figure of a stonecutter. <br>

Well from what I've seen and the announcement of an "R" rating I'm feeling good about this movie.If you remember Ryan Reynolds performance in Blade: Trinity he's perfect to play "The Merc with the Mouth ".He was perfect as Deadpool in the 1st half of the Wolverine movie constantly talking and cracking jokes but then the producers and writers decided to throw away what makes Deadpool fun for the 2nd half of the movie which made no sense!...wait I'm going on a rant so just check out these photos from the set and stay tuned for more news as I get it.<br>
Until next time my friends stay geeky and hungry. </p>

Todd Patton started the convention back in 2008 and since then it keeps getting bigger every year.Writers,artist,actors and vendors from around the country came to attend this year's Con Nooga.This being my  1st time attending I wasn't sure what to expect especially after going to bigger Cons like Motor City-Con in Detroit or Dragoncon in Atlanta but I was pleasantly surprised. </p>
<p dir="ltr">It's held in the Chattanooga Convention center in the heart of downtown with nearby hotels and within walking distance of bars and restaurants for when you need to take a break. Some of the benefits it being a "smaller" Con are,price only $60 for the weekend or $30 for 1 day pass.You don't have to line up an hour or more to get into a panel even though some did get packed quick like the Attack on Titan panel and the Star Wars vs Star Trek debate which was a more somber event with the death of Leonard Nimoy the day before.One young lady almost broke down in tears talking to me about the panel and Mr Nimoy,yeah it was a little awkward considering I didn't know her. That's what's so great about Cons they bring together people who are passionate about scfi,comics, gaming and cosplay there was even a Brony panel,a Brony is a guy who's into "My Little Pony "yes it's a thing don't judge.<br>
A few highlights from my weekend at Con Nooga were sitting in the "66" Batmobile with the Penguin,peeking inside the TARDIS and yes it is bigger on the inside and of course meeting some cool people and geeking out with them.<br>
I had so much fun I can't wait for next February and Con Nooga 16.<br>
Until next time my friends stay geeky and hungry. </p>
