Last night, I saw the unfortunate news that the Disney animated series Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur had been canceled after only two seasons. Gabi Rode, the show’s storyboard artist, confirmed the cancellation, stating in a tweet, “What sucks is that a bunch of us at Disney knew about this for so long but couldnât…
In many regards one of the most inexplicable snubs from The Power Fantasy playlist, â99 Luftballonsâ was a 1983 single by the band NENA.

In August, we wrote about how DCâs new line of $9.99 Compact Comics, collecting classic, evergreen stories in digest format, were just what comics needed to attract new readers. Apparently, plenty of people agreed with us, because DC on Tuesday announced second â and in one case a third â printings of its 10 launch…
The election. Good god, the election. His stupid face. Gleeful ignorance. Elon Musk. A single square of toilet paper on an otherwise barren roll. Decaf coffee. Stephen Miller. Four more years. There are any number of reasons to sink slowly, softly and sadly into blackness. These are some of my reasons to keep my head…

Happy Halloween! Itâs time for tricks, treats, costumes and, of course, horror movies. The skeletons and the cobwebs have been hung with care, and now itâs time for the mutant maniacs of the X-Mansion to decide what spooky flicks they want to marathon as they eat all the candy they want.
