Bossier City, LA North Louisiana has a lot of wonderful things going for it. Unfortunately, having an excellent comic convention hasn’t been one of those things in a long time. Thankfully that shortcoming has been erased with the first Louisiana Comic Con in Bossier City, LA at the Bossier Civic Center. Myself and a friendContinue reading “Louisiana Comic Con!!!”

Getting Up To Speed With The Flash, Gotham, King of the Nerds, And More!
The World Of Television The CW has a definite hit on its hands with The Flash. Much like Arrow (which I seriously need to catch up on), it has taken a character that could have become either extremely excellent or terribly silly on the small screen and turned it into one of the most enjoyable newContinue reading “Getting Up To Speed With The Flash, Gotham, King of the Nerds, And More!”
February Can’t Get Here Fast Enough!
Lake Charles, LA I am soooooo ready to start hitting conventions this year. Since I started going to conventions a few years ago, this has been the longest stretch between conventions for me (excepting the year-long wait I had between the now defunct ConDuLac I and ConDuLac II). By this time, I’ve been to WizardContinue reading “February Can’t Get Here Fast Enough!”
It Has Begun!!!
Lake Charles, LA It’s convention season again, and my alter ego, the Discount Dark Knight, will be in attendance at a few conventions this year. He has a little contest going on over on his Facebook page, http://www.facebook.com/discountdarkknight, so feel free to check it out if you’d like. The first event that DDK will hitContinue reading “It Has Begun!!!”
A Balloony Surprise!
San Fransokyo Last weekend I took one of my children to see the film Big Hero 6. In all honesty, I had no clue as to exactly what this film was about. I wasn’t familiar with it at all. Basically I went in blind. I also went in with very low expectations and prayed thatContinue reading “A Balloony Surprise!”
Wizard Wipeout????
In Dark Corners Of The ‘Verse For over thirty-eight years now I have been a geek, a nerd, the odd man out, and that shy kid that never drew much attention to himself. While many kids were playing baseball or jumping rope, I was watching 3-2-1 Contact, Doctor Who, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, SuperContinue reading “Wizard Wipeout????”
Catching Up With My “X’s”
Lake Charles, LA Okay, okay. Now before you read this blog, know that I am well aware that X-Men: Days of Future Past has been out on DVD/Blu-ray/digital download for some time now AND that I’m probably not adding much to the whole X discussion that hasn’t already been mentioned, but please realize that IContinue reading “Catching Up With My “X’s””
Halloween Comic Fest And USS Lafitte Halloween Party
Southwest Louisiana Saturday, October 25th was a rather busy day for myself and, to a lesser degree, my youngest child. The day started off awkwardly, with me failing to set my alarm the night before and therefore missing out on bringing my wife to work and my kids out for a quiet breakfast. Nope, myContinue reading “Halloween Comic Fest And USS Lafitte Halloween Party”
Alpha Nerds And Bullies Within Fan Groups
Lake Charles, LA Let me start off by saying that this post will probably tick off a few people. It will most likely tick off those good folks who believe that they are not exactly what they appear to be. They don’t see themselves as the problem that I’m about to yap about, but theyContinue reading “Alpha Nerds And Bullies Within Fan Groups”
A Fun Run
Central City and, uh, The CW I’m going to come right out and say that I love The CW’s new show, The Flash. Having been lucky enough to see the old John Wesley Shipp version of the series and being really ticked off when that show was dropped (Does that mean I was Firefly beforeContinue reading “A Fun Run”
