i've never read groo and i've never liked transformers. dumb robots.
Yeah Preacher was great. The ending especially. I like Y for the dialogue more than anything. There's one scene where Yorrick comes running in screaming "SOYLENT GREEN! SOYLENT GREEN!" That was effin' hilarious! And I never read what you said about TF. Nah I'm kidding, to each his own.

Another example of this the American comic books of the fifties which depicted giant robots attacking cities, this is where the Godzilla giant monster genre came from, which evolved into giant robots in the seventies and then in the 90's, American film makers decided to do an American version ofbthe Giant robot, Iron Giant. It's us stealing back stuff that was ours to begin with. This is why I feel, tha while Japan is most different from America, they are also more like us than any other culture.
I love death in the family, some of my favorites are year one and Shaman.
Shoot, it seems like you know your stuff clala!. I'm not prejudiced, I like it all.

Not a problem man. Also, my closest TRU had a ton more Ponds this afternoon since I was there last Monday. Let me know if you find THAT and end up picking it up. Don't sweat it on my account if you find one on a nice card. I save all my receipts.

Second this. Despite all the shit-talking, I've always thought you're a stand-up guy.
