I was planning to save the update until Thursday, but I'm bored, and what the hell, it's a somewhat lengthy piece anyway. This time, SC takes a look at Maury's "I'm Madly In Love With My Complete Opposite". We call it Maury's OPPOSITE COUPLES OF DOOM. Enjoy...

The first part of this morning post comes to you courtesy of Matt of X-Entertainment, who in the X-E blog has posted a "poll" of sorts (it's not really a poll; more like a question, really), asking readers what they would take with them in the event that disaster struck and they were forced to retreat into a fallout shelter of their own design.

So I always knew this, but today I was thinking about some of the potential pieces I can do with all of the toys I've got lying around when the horror of the fact struck me with a sudden terrifying urgency -- I don't own an April O'Neil figure! From my computer seat, by simply turning my head and leaning around a bit, I can spot two Michaelangelos (new spelling) and three Raphaels, and off the top of my head I know I've got at least five versions of every Turtle -- and probably more. Hell, I've even got three Bebops (only one Rocksteady as far as I can remember, though). What the hell would I need three Bebops for? And not one April! (more...)

Nothing really new to add, except look for the debut of a new SC ongoing feature really soon. Like maybe later today, maybe Monday. Soon. I'll keep you posted.

Tonight's post is courtesy of Hannah, who also has a link now in the sidebar. In a blog post today she referred readers to "Kafka in Bronteland", a short story by Tamar Yellin. If you've got the time, give it a look and let me know what you think -- I'd be really curious to hear what you've got to say about it. (more...)
