When you step into your comic book shop this week and your head is screaming for something different and politically incorrect, then try The Complete Accident Man by creators Pat Mills (Marvel’s 2099 series) and Tony Skinner (2000AD). This trade collects Accident Man’s run on Toxic! comics and his own Dark Horse mini-series, so now you can read everything in one sitting with some beer and chips.

I remember when the first LEGO Star Wars products were released and I was hooked and addicted like a madman. I had to get this, get that, and this one. My wallet was busting, but now as I’m older and much wiser when paycheck funds going into more important stuff, I’m a little more picky of what I want and I do want this! The 75059 LEGO Sandcrawler from Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope.

The Simon & Kirby Library: Horror!
March 4, 2014 by Leave a Comment
In today’s comic book shops and bookstores, it’s mostly superhero comics that dominate the shelves and racks. It wasn’t like that during the 40s, 50s, 60s and 70s of this bygone era where comic book creators branched into many genres like romance, westerns and science fiction. Comic book legends Joe Simon and Jack Kirby are more known for their superhero work, but they also took the comic book medium to other genres and Titan Books publishes another neat collection from The Simon & Kirby Library: Horror!

Frankie’s Garage: Front Wheel Drive is back!
March 4, 2014 by Leave a Comment
Back in the mid-90s, here in California, Honda’s were all the crazed. The past couple of generations of Honda Civic’s were bland and Acura discontinued the Integra line-up, so Honda didn’t really have that cheap affordable sports compact ride anymore. Now it’s back with this “rice rocket” front-wheel drive car, the 2015 Honda Civic Type R Concept. A 4-cyclinder packing 280 horses looking back to Honda’s rich racing heritage. Too bad this model is only UK Europe-spec.
