Wow that is a depressing title but the exclamation point makes it happy. First let me begin by saying that I am sorry for how dark and unfunny my last post was! Now that that's out of the way let's begin. As the title suggests this is just some junk that I've been meaning to talk about or I found amusing.
A conversation my mother and I had while watching the trailer for the new planet of the apes movie,
Mom: Aww I wanna get a monkey.
Me: Yeah but it has to be a super genius.
-No just a stupid regular monkey.
-Well it has to be potty trained.
-We can put a diaper on it.
-I'm not changing no monkey diaper.
-That's the same thing your father said when we brought you back from the hospital.
As you probably already know, DC comics is relaunching all of its titles starting back at number one. Some people have a problem with this because Adventure (or action who cares I don't read it) comics is the longest running unbroken line of a comic series ever. It's almost at 1000 issues. Frankly I don't give a damn about Adventure, Action or even Detective comics. What I'm upset about is that Secret Six did not get picked up as one of the fifty two series starting at number one. Instead Gail Simone is working with Ethan Van Skyver on a Firestorm book. Now I have nothing but good things to say about Gail Simone the fact that she was writing the one book at DC that I actually legally obtained should speak volumes about her work but in my opinion EVS should've kept drawing lions in flash and had a heart attack as long as he got the damn book out on time. And as much as it pains me to say it I'm not going to keep buying a book, no matter how good it is, if it's constantly delayed... Seriously what was that lion doing there?! But I am a little bit happy that Secret Six will have a chance to wrap up. It doesn't have to go through other creators and a bunch of shitty story lines. It can just be one perfect un-broken run.
I'm a big fan of Duke Nukem and my brother recently bought the new game. Now this game has been twelve years coming so expectations were high. I would love to buy this game but since my main source of income is prayer my brother was kind enough to let me borrow it like sloppy incestuous seconds. First of all let me just state that after twelve years of waiting, this game could have come with a solid gold eighteen year old prostitute who worked for free, never aged and crapped diamonds and people would still be disappointed. Now that I've said that let me say this, it is not a good game. It's a fun game. There are a lot of challenging bosses and you see boobs but other than that there's really nothing there. The best part about the game is the fact that they reference other games. There's an achievement for doing something similar to an objective in Portal and there's an achievement for finding the helmets of the character from Dead Space, Halo and Borderlands. It's as if he's saying this is where good games come to die.
