Yes, I Once Again will be Hauling the Spider-Man Balloon

In the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade, I will be one of the devoted hauls of the Spidey balloon. I’ve no idea if I’ll be visible (probably not) but my understanding is that it’s scheduled to be on TV sometime between 10:30 and 10:45 tomorrow morning. (Note revised time)

For every more sane person out there (which is most of you) have a great Thanksgiving.

Movie review: Lost in Space

digresssmlOriginally published April 24, 1998, in Comics Buyer’s Guide #1275

Young Will Robinson looks to his sister Penny who—rather than wholesome and clean-cut—now evokes a style best described as “Punk Toontown” and possesses a voice that’s a cross between The Nanny and Lisa Simpson. Penny has just gone into gruesome detail as to what happens when one is faced with the effects of floating unprotected in the vacuum of space. And the cherubic Will wonders, “Do they have a name for what’s wrong with you?”

Sure do, Will. The name is, “The Nineties.”
