I ought to go ahead and change the name of the site, shouldn’t I?

Tomorrow, my friend Brian and I will be venturing out to Best Buy at 5am to wait in line yet again in another potentially futile attempt to each score an XBOX 360. The store should have at least 20 units for sale, and here’s hoping word hasn’t spread wide enough so we’re beaten by more dedicated campers.

My car is already half backed-in out on 16th Street. How nice will the universe be?

On an unrelated note, the “Dr. Dremo” jam comic that Jake and I contributed to got reviewed by a great Dr. Strange fan site. Dr. Dremo, as you may recall, is a character loosely based on Dr. Stephen Strange of Marvel comics’ fame (who, I might add, is sorely underused by his parent company, and was utterly ruined in the recent Marvel miniseries). Props are given to “Wang” and “Dremomu” in the review, two characters I added to the mythos. I wish I could claim that I created them, but they are merely ripoffs from the real Dr. Strange. I put them in because I have always wished that I could write the good Doctor, particularly in the 70’s-era continuity.

Although I didn’t read it, I heard that Marvel eliminated Strange in the “House of M” crossover. I sure hope this isn’t true, because he is a thoroughly awesome character. If Marvel ever has any interest in getting an unknown writer to do “Ultimate Strange,” someone give Joe Quesada my email address.
