I have no idea how DC intends to draw in new, unsuspecting readers when they're instantly sold out every single week. I suppose it's good for the business though, JLA did nearly double the sales that Flashpoint 5 did. I'm thinking about hanging back until the hype dies down a bit. Maybe just buy them from Barnes and Noble. I wonder if the staff would give me weird looks if I ask about the possibilities of creating a pull list lol.
I have decided to take the plunge and buy American Vampire. I'm going to order a soft back copy of it though, because twenty four dollars for a graphic novel is all kinds of ridiculous because I'm poor - and it's a picture book.
Teen Wolf is reportedly getting twenty four episodes when they return for a second season and I'm not sure how I feel about it. On one hand - this hiatus is killing me already and it's only been like a month. But on the other hand - Teen wolf was good; there were few filler episodes. It's easier to eliminate filler episodes when you have a reduced number of episodes. With twelve -they only had twelve hours to tell their story and they used their time wisely and it was awesome. With twenty four - they'll probably be forced to waste a few episodes and I hate filler episodes. I'm not saying I hate plotless episodes - because I don't. I don't hate episodes that focus entirely on Characters - those aren't filler episodes in my opinion. They still add to the show, to your knowledge, to how you feel about the people you are watching every week. In my opinion, filler episodes don't contribute to anything. They're just throwaway episodes. So I'm not sure how I feel about this news, but twenty four episodes of Derek and Stiles can't ever be an entirely bad thing XD
I am kicking ass at Facebook Sims. And Tetris.
Survivor and Criminal minds is on tonight. But even better - Ted Dansen is on the CSI after Criminal minds. Ever since I caught him in Becker like a decade ago, I have adored Ted Dansen, so happy day, even if I am comicless. Becker helped form my religious belief system when I was entering high school. I'm not saying that Becker is what made me an atheist, but for my entire childhood I was left drifting, trying to find some sort of structure to latch onto because I thought having a faith was necessary. I was an atheist at my core - like, I wanted to believe in a deity, but I couldn't suspend my disbelief long enough to believe something that unimaginable actually exists; I just didn't know what to call it - I didn't know what I was. And then there Becker was, with his cynical speeches and his intellectual atheism and he was such a dick sometimes but then you see him have to break bad news to a kid with full blown AIDS and how he softens up and he was a morally right man too. A smart, morally right atheist. And I thought - that's sorta like how I feel. Maybe that's what I am too. And then years of reading up on atheism and christianity and about a billion different religions followed, but after I had that foundation of reality set, it was easier to read other belief systems.
Later I'll probably update with my Teen Wolf big bang ideas because I am really procrastinating the shit out of that. I hate writing because it's such a liquid form of art - and I always find myself putting it off. But I love it because there is no greater feeling than having just written something amazing, and knowing it's amazing. So yes, I have ideas for Teen Wolf and I need to write them all out so I have them straight so that should come later. But right now? Time for sims!
