Come give us a visit if you're going to be there! Always love to hear from other Mecha enthusiasts!

------------------------------------------------

Trying to get more Chibi's drawn for the con, and still working on the ODST Team, and probably a new Chibi Chief, and Arbiter... and maybe Cortana. I've a few ideas of actual mechas/characters to do (Gundam 00, new Mazinger Z, some new G1 Transformers), but is there any specifics anyone would like to see? Preferably Anime or Video Game related, and of course within the mecha theme.

------------------------------------------------

Went and saw Transformers 2.

It wasn't bad overall... You could definitely tell that the plot took a back seat to the action. I could see how a lot of the critics would be mostly confused about the plot, as a lot of the smaller details were not really explained well... BUT if you were a Transformers fan, a lot of it made more sense. Still doesn't excuse poor story telling... but as everyone says, it's not meant to be known for it's story.

I still preferred the first movie though... Though Sideswipe was pretty badass. Already picked up his movie figure.

-----------------------------------------------

Dark Reign sucks so bad, it's not even funny right now. Norman Osborn must have like 5-10 clones running around, as he seems to appear in almost every book under the Dark Reign title at once, and not just talking, but fighting. I will be glad when this arc is over, which is looking like November-ish... at least here's to hoping.

Still not liking Iron Man right now. I hope it gets better soon... I also don't like War Machine. Sure, the way I want him to be is the way they handled him during Secret Invasion... A heavily armed Iron Man. This whole merging with Technology thing is getting on my nerves.

War of Kings has kind of been slipping a bit, but the conclusion is getting closer, so it should pick up soon.

In Green Lantern, the Blackest Night arc starts soon... Oh so very soon, and it's something I have been waiting for since Ganthet and Sayd spoke of the 7 different "Emotion Corps" during the Sinestro Corps arc.

And so far, Hal Jordan has "wielded" 5 of the 7 colors of Rings.

Green - Willpower*
Blue - Hope*
Red - Rage*
Yellow - Fear*
Orange - Greed*
Violet - Love
Indigo - Compassion

He's used all but the Violet and Indigo Rings. Will he use all 7? We shall see!

...or should I say all 8...?


The Black Lantern Corps are coming...

----------------------------------------------

For those of you who don't know, I bought me an iPhone. Only the cheaper 8GB model, but that is enough for me.

The worst part? I bought it 3 DAYS before the announcement of the price drop. And the retailer I bought it from isn't able to get me a refund. $100 is $100. And I want it -_-'

Either way though, I love it. Got a good Comic Book app to check new releases, not to mention the "Standard" must haves like Facebook, Wiki, and MSN/AIM apps.

----------------------------------------------

Well, that's about it for now!

Time to work on stuff for Otakon!... or play with my iPhone...
