That does sound kind of dirty, doesn’t it? Well, that’s probably ’cause it is.
Last year I read and reviewed a book called “Crooked Little Vein” by Warren Ellis. It was then, and remains to this very date the most twisted, lobotomisingly delightful piece of literature I’ve ever set my eyes on. It was, in other [...]

Let Me Show You My Ellis
Transmetropolitan by Warren Ellis & Darick Robertson
Ever since I picked up Ellis’ prose novel “Crooked Little Vein”, I couldn’t help but wonder what the fuck I had stumbled onto. That short and thoroughly disgusting little crime novel was unlike anything I’d ever read before, and not just in the sheer amount of craziness per page, but also in the way Ellis [...]
The Rebellious Quote of the Day
“The most dangerous man, to any government, is the man who is able to think things out for himself, without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane and intolerable, and so, if he is romantic, he tries to change [...]
Comic Books Galore #4: Hitting the Jackpot
Yes, I’m no longer putting the date in the title of these entries ’cause I can’t imagine what anyone gets out of em. I am, however, numbering them to see how many of these I end up posting. Who knows - maybe we’ll get into double figures!

Comic Books Galore, 8/4-08
What say you, dear readers; are you up for another round of me blathering on about the random comics I’ve been tearing through? If so, then grab a hold of that parachute and try not fall to your death while I present my latest conquests in a, hopefully, death-defyingly funny manner. Here we go:
Pride of [...]
Comic Books Galore: A Mostly Whedon Edition
It’s not been that long since I posted my first “Comic Books Galore”, and I can honestly say that I didn’t think I’d be posting another one any time soon. Happily, though, I was given a golden opportunity to pick up some really cool comics by the living legend, Joss Whedon, and I’m couldn’t help [...]
It Looks Like Your Head Hasn’t Exploded Yet. I Can Help.
The next post will be a book review. I promise.
But it the mean time, why don’t you read this particular column by Warren Ellis (who’s been given way too much attention around here lately. It must cease!). It’s so disgusting that I fear it may have broken my mind forever. The rest of the entries [...]
Bookmarkworthiness
Warren Ellis (author) and Paul Duffield (artist) are collaborating on a free, weekly webcomic called “FreakAngels”. The first episode is up today, and it looks to be quite interesting indeed. I’ll certainly be keeping a keen eye on it, and if you’ve got any self pride left in your sorry carcass, so should you.
I’m just [...]
The ‘Global Frequency’ Scandal
The people that run the TV channels are probably good people too. I mean, clearly they can’t all be evil freakin’ people filled with evil, squirming stuffing. That’d make no sense, now would it?
But you have to wonder when you look at the faiths of such gems like “Firefly”, “Veronica Mars” and “Angel” - all [...]
