Considering that Halloween hits at the end of this week, it seems a good time to talk about another of my geekdoms: the paranormal. It’s not something we talk about much on the show (I think it’s been mentioned maybe twice), but Kylan and I are paranormal investigators. A few years ago we even founded a team. But my love for all things ghosty goes back to my childhood. Continue reading Miss Dawn’s Musings – I Ain’t Afraid of No Ghosts

Gotham Gal West Coast – Autumnlands Vol 1: Tooth and Claw
I have made no secret of my love for Image Comics – titles like Lazarus, Rat Queens, Bitch Planet and The Fade Out. I have been branching out to reading more and more of their titles, and have not yet found a series that has spoken to me in one way or another.

Probably not because in each of these cases these people managed to reinvent themselves and now we only see Bruce Willis: action star, Mark Wahlberg: actor, and Billy Blanks: fitness guru. True, these people probably had agents behind them, driving them to realize the visions they each had for themselves, but, you know what? None of that matters. You have a brain and between that and a desire to change, you have everything that you need to reinvent yourself. Continue reading Irregular’s Intel – Reinvention: It’s Not Just for Hollywood

Hey Geeksters!
Before I get into this week’s news I’d like to ask for your support. My friends and I started a YouTube channel about a year ago then had to stop due to school and other issues. Now that we’re in college and have some more free time we’ve been starting it back up. But because of how YouTube works, the break we took killed our audience, so I’d like to ask you guys: would you be our new audience? Check out our channel, Otaku Paradise.
