Newsarama is reporting that China is creating a casino that will feature Batman and other DC Hero theme rides to keep the kids occupied while mommy and daddy lose their college money at the slot machines.

That’s because the male target audience needs something to look at between fights.
All I’m saying is that there was a time when strong women could be feminine…and fun.
Some digital clutter cleaning over at The Clutter Reports today, because I had a job interview yesterday and I’m hoping I got the job because I really need the money. Badly. Or I’m going to lose a whole lot of things, like the phone, my car insurance, my credit rating…you see my problem. If I don’t get some income soon I’m in trouble. How this will affect the site if I now have a work schedule again I don’t know. Just bear with me.
So naturally still no new comics…but did you know Jackie Chan had a comic book in America? We’ll be looking at Spartan X in the afternoon slot this week, but since it was cut short at three issues I also have an issue of Josie And The Pussycats and King Arthur & The Knights Of Justice to fill out the week. Job=income=new comic reviews returning, but I still have way too many old comics to go over and a bloated collection to trim down. Wish me luck on things, folks. I’ll know tomorrow if I’m employed again or not.
In 2014 I went to the TGWTG panel with Doug and Rob Walker. The panel was two hours long, which I think is the second longest event (#1 being the Masquerade talent show) and still there were people who didn’t get their question asked. Popular boys, the Walker. My battery died during the event, which made a good place to put a commercial break so y’all can stand up and stretch your legs if you’re by the computer.
I take this guy over the Sentinels.

Amalgam (DC; April, 1996)
“Secret Of The K-Bombs” SCRIPT/CO-PLOT/ART/LETTERERS: Mark Wai & Dave Gibbons COLORIST: Angus McKie EDITORS: Mike McAvennie & KC CarlsonKelly Robert Pavlik (born April 5, 1982) is a retired American professional boxer. He was a The Ring, WBC and WBO Middleweight champion after beating Jermain Taylor on September 29, 2007, until he lost his titles to Sergio Martínez on April 17, 2010.
Known as “The Ghost”, Pavlik grew up on the south side of Youngstown, Ohio, in the traditional ethnic Slovak neighborhood of Lansingville. He graduated from Lowellville High School and Mahoning County Joint Vocational School in 2000. Pavlik has been trained by Jack Loew of Youngstown’s South Side Boxing Gym for his entire career. His loyalty to his neighborhood and his unassuming, unglamorous lifestyle have earned him praise inside and outside the world of boxing.
For the Prize Fight, we must bring forth an enemy that’s unseen. I racked my brain trying to figure out what to add. The fact that I didn’t win any rounds this tournament means I can cheat a little. The monster is invisible…unless your Supergirl.
