The Story of Superman: A tabloid worth your time!
I used to love going on routine trips to the grocery store or pharmacy with my grandpa as a kid, because all those places had a spinner rack full of comic books that I could pilfer. Those spinner racks are long gone, and comic books are nowhere to be found […]
Iggy & Romero: America’s Sweethearts

Ghosts of the digital age
What happens when the future gets old? What happens when the hot newness of the bleeding age gathers rust and accumulates the barnacles of time? A friend of mine passed away last year. Someone I’d known for over 25 years. Despite many years without seeing each other in person, we […]

The discrete charm of 20th century TV
Maybe it’s a midlife crisis kinda thing, I don’t know, but I’ve been enthralled by rediscovering the television shows of my youth. The stuff of syndication dreams and reruns paradise from the era of the CRT. They say the present is the golden age of TV, with stuff like Breaking […]
