Snips and Snails and Puppy Dog Tales

I picked up the Loki comic today. The shop was a little uncomfortable in an overly friendly sort of way (three employees all helping just me, one joking and doing voices and such). The comic came out yesterday and had already sold out, but they sold me a copy saved for someone's monthly mail order (thus they had time to replace it).

I really, really liked the story and the art was spiffy, but $3 for something I read in minutes was unreasonabilly priced. I will buy future ones because I want to support Loki things, but I'm not happy about the price.

The shop included a bunch of preview book thingies. It shouldn't surprise me how many Avengers-world comics there are. I'm going to poke around for some online. Speaking of, I need to see if there's an online subscription or something for the Loki series -- I don't really want a physical copy floating around. iPad doesn't like the Marvel site though, so next time I'm on the computer.

I had to google to see if it was hodge-podge, hodgepodge, or hodge podge, which ironically relates to this post!



Rock, Paper, Cynic comic strip is a little hit and miss, but when it's a hit, it amuses me greatly.

( More of my favorite ones back here! Some of them with stories from my life~ )
PS: In the UK, it's hodgepodge, in the US it's hodge-podge.

MASH is going to be an... interesting... show to watch. It's very, very dated in a not-PC sort of way. I watched the first ep (25 minutes long) and in that time they called a black person a spear-chucker, assaulted an officer/drugged him, and probably 15 of those 25 minutes was one male character kissing, groping, and generally touching some woman who kept saying 'no' every time. (And the laugh track is awful!) I know all this was fine at the time the show was made, so I'm not finger-shaking at them, but it's really, really jarring to see now.

One of the things about Teen Wolf being shown on MTV is that there's tons of music in each ep. I discovered this song through it. So dark and sad and good.
