With our personal lives being characterized by change, loss, and transition, July was unsurprisingly a month of the unexpected. We touched on fandoms we've rarely or never discussed, we reacted to the strange events unfolding around us, and I ended up writing for entire last week of the month, with the aid of a first-time guest poster.
See for yourself how varied and surprising July was:
- A recap of my contributions to videogame humor website GameCola.net in both June and July, along with a note that GameCola is looking for new writers
- A review of the game-changing Ultimate Spider Man #160
- A public service announcement about S.978, the Bill that would purportedly destroy the world
- A celebration of Independence Day
- The amateur's guide to displaying collectibles, a post that I started over a year before, but never took the time to finish
- Alex's personal journal and occasional comics news corner, Waiting for Wednesday, Volume 3, Issues 27-29, discussing the bitter aftermath of chasing a dream, The Dark Knight Rises, and a farewell to Borders, plus a special edition where I hijack Alex's column
- Rumination on being a community of one
- Notes about the San Diego Comic-Con discussing absurd protests, the time writer Grant Morrison met Superman, and feeling left out
- Alex talks about growing up with professional wrestling
- A ridiculous statistic-laden celebration of 1001 posts
- The tale of Alex's first foray into the depths of Middle Earth
- A trio of moving-related posts: packing the boxes, moving the boxes, and unpacking the boxes
- A story about breaking the law for the sake of baseball
- A spotlight on the hilariously quirky television show It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
- Praise for the Baltimore Comic-Con and accompanying artwork
- An internal debate about whether or not I'm a serious Harry Potter fan
- A list of things to look forward to
- Free, handcrafted video game wallpapers by yours truly
- A quick update about posting
- Reflections on my time-consuming creative process
- A guest post regarding the ups and downs of the Dragon Age computer game series
