Blackest Night.

Anyone reading it? What do you think so far? I think that Geoff Johns can write a fucking comic like no other. Granted, this has been a fact for a while, but damn! This is shaping up to be one of the best events in comics to date.

Being a Marvel fanboy at heart, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the day that Johns gets conscripted by Marvel.

I love it! Can't wait to get the next issue! I think it's a pretty creative way to get some old (and dead) favorites back for a bit...I really want to see how the different colors of lanterns deal with it...and I think it would be really cool if we could get a white lantern...

I haven't been reading it. I stopped buying individual comics except for particular characters I have an irrational obsession for, e.g. Batwoman.

I'm going to have to wait until the TPB comes out before I read it -- and given DC's awesome rate of TPB publishing I should be reading it by this time next year.

I've heard a lot of good things about it as well as Dark Reign; I hope neither disappoints.

Dark Reign has been pretty good as well. Blackest Night has basically just begun and it's already insane. Killing two major characters in the first issue insane.

The White Lantern thing seems only logical, ya know? We'll see, though. It seems so obvious, that I don't know if Johns will do it.

i've got no problem with everyone saying "merry christmas" on christmas day.  however, they've turned it into an entire holiday season where it lasts a month or more.  in those situations it should be perfectly acceptable to say "happy holidays" or call it a…

My first funeral as an atheist

Posted by Two Cult Survivor on May 21, 2013 at 11:30am 0 Comments

I posted the bulk of this on another thread, but wanted to add some context separately.

I finally confronted my faith and embraced the fact of my atheism late last August, 2012. Days after I revealed my "epiphany" to a few friends who knew me from another message board, my sister died from Lou Gehrig's Disease (which pissed her off because she hated catching a disease from someone she never f---ed).

THAT was my sister, understand? She was a beautiful, life-loving, potty-mouthed…

Death of a family member

Posted by Larry Taylor on May 20, 2013 at 8:15pm 8 Comments

OK. I am venting. My mother died two weeks ago. She was a “god fearing christian.” Before her death she refused all medical treatment. She wanted to be left alone. She even refused to speak with my brother who is a methodist minister. He is a pip, let me tell you! I suspect she did not believe, but a woman born in her time could not and did not state her actual beliefs. This is the opening salvo to all christians; FUCK YOU! I had so many people come and tell…

Unbelievable!!!!!!!!

Posted by Christy Stewart on May 20, 2013 at 2:17pm 6 Comments

This probably should not have shocked me as much as it did (especially since I am in Texas). I actually thought my coworkers were playing a joke on me because they know I am an atheist. Sadly, this was no joke. This actually happened.

I work in a psychiatric hospital. The doctors who admit patients are general MDs. (Psychiatrists see patients after admission) Yesterday evening we received several calls from irate parents. A new doctor who was doing admissions yesterday actually…
