New Project

First I'm going to try a new project, a comic book. I really didn't grow up watching a lot of movies, I grew up more with television and comic books. And since making television shows would require a bit more crew than I have access to I'm going to take a shot at a comic book. My goal is to put three pages a week up here. I'm cheating with the first three and counting the cover as page one.

On the second subject, fall brings new network television. There's lots of good shows out there and more than a few guilty pleasures (I'm a fan of the sitcom, almost any sitcom).
The best part of television right now is the amount of science fiction show that are being aired. But it's frustrating at the same time too. Because the only way science fiction works is if you don't violate actual known science. The best show right now is Fringe, very good storytelling and a trust that J.J. Abrams knows how to build an intricate conspiracy without stooping to stupid writers tricks. Like what X-Files devolved into. The show that's frustrating me the most is Heroes, a combination of bad science and lack of trust earned by using some of those stupid writers tricks at the beginning of last season. Plus they also pushed one of my hot button science issues, that humans don't use 100% of their brain. We do use our entire brain by the way. But It's nice to see science fiction taking a place in popular media. And though I still miss Journeyman from last year there's plenty in the middle between Fringe and Heroes to enjoy: Eureka, Knight Rider, Lost and Chuck to name a few.

That's all for now, I'm off to watch some television.
