The trail of Face Rockery mayhem ends here, kids. I’ll keep the blog up but I will no longer update it. However, my geekery doesn’t stop here. You can visit me at Baddieverse, my blog of dickeries, for the continuation of my face-rocking geektitude! You can also follow me on Tumblr because I post random shit there, usually related to comics. Especially DOOM. And Poison Ivy.

It’s been fun, folks! See you around the Internet! And by that I mean Baddieverse and Purveyor of Villainy. Excelsior!

First, let’s take a look at Veronica. She’s her usual elegant and sophisticated self, totally bitchin’. I’d want to marry her too if she wasn’t fictional.

Another awesome monthly book bites the dust. This is a sad day for me. I’ve been enjoying Captain Britain and MI-13 since it launched in the middle of Secret Invasion and I feel it’s being taken from us way too soon. I just can’t believe they’re going to cancel a book where Dr. Doom helps Dracula with his plan to invade Britain. Vampires invade the UK, you guys! Sigh. It’s a sad, sad day indeed.

2. The Deadly Doom of Dinosorcery!

First thing that came to mind was “Great. Another X-Team.” After a few nanoseconds, I was like “Jesus, this is awesome.”

The upcoming crossover between Dark Avengers and Uncanny X-Men will introduce a new team put together by Norman Osborn and led by Emma Frost. The team is a little strange for an X-Team. We have Angel who is currently running with X-Force and is one of the original X-Men.  He and Frost are the only real X-Men in this bunch. Everybody else wearing the “X” gives me that old “Well, that’s weird” feeling.

Chris Jericho vs. “Rowdy” Roddy Piper, Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat and Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka: With Ric Flair in the Legends’ corner, you’d think the cards will be stacked against Jericho. But we have to remember that even though there are four of them, the Legends are geriatric shadows of their former selves. Then again, it’s not always about how good and fit you are in the WWE. Steamboat is being inducted into the Hall of Fame this year and it will be a damn shame if he’ll lose a match at Wrestlemania. Also, I have a feeling that Mickey Rourke will be involved in one way or another.

WINNERS: WWE Legends

25-Diva Battle Royal for title of “Miss Wrestlemania”: 25 WWE Divas, including the old ones, will battle it out to earn the title of the very first Miss Wrestlemania. Boobs galore, this one.

WINNER: My Penis

1. Nathan Fillion as Steve Trevor. There’s a lot of great performances in this movie but how Steve Trevor was written and how he was played by Nathan Fillion was its killer combo. From the lasso interrogation scene to the “Invisible missiles, of course!” moment, Trevor was a delight. Honorable mentions: Alfred Molina as Ares, Oliver Platt as Hades, and Rosario Dawson as Artemis. Sorry, Keri Russell. Your Wonder Woman just didn’t do it for me. I would prefer Susan Eisenberg (“Justice League Unlimited”) over you any day. Good job, though.

Superman. He’s the measuring stick of all comic book characters. They’re all defined by how different or how similar they are to the Man of Steel. In iconic status, he’s way up there with Sherlock Holmes, Tarzan, Jesus, and Mickey Mouse. Batman is cooler, but honestly, Superman is who we all really strive to be. And speaking of the Bat…

Because of a little movie called “Watchmen” hitting theaters this week, I’m thinking a lot of non comic book-y people will discover (and hopefully read multiple times) sequential art’s BIBLE. And upon reading 12 chapters of this revered tome, their perception of what a comic book is and what can be accomplished with the medium will drastically change. But what about us already comic book-y people? Is there a side of sequential art that we haven’t seen yet? I don’t know about you, but Craig Yoe‘s upcoming book about Joe Shuster‘s fetish art looks like something that can introduce me to the seedier side of comics.
