So, I spent today reading Legion of Super-Heroes comics from the 1950s and 60s. They are my new favorite obsession. They are each like 10 pages long and are just fascinating. For instance, today I read an issue where a man had the power to control wild animals. After being rejected from the League, he uses his power for revenge and takes control of several monsters from the cleverly named "Monster Planet." The equally cleverly named hero Bouncing Boy, managed to stop him. It was rad.
So after reading these for an hour or two while I did laundry, I then decided to watch some cartoons on my computer. But not just any cartoons, mother-effing Dragonball. Yes, I know. It is pathetic. But I can't help it, I am equally pathetic. I am halfway through the Tien saga. The writing is horrible and the jokes are lame. Yet I can't stop watching it. The fighting is still creative and fun to watch, even though I am no longer 13. And I still plan on going to see the new movie in theaters when it comes out. I know it is going to blow ass, but freaking Spike is in it. Playing Piccolo no less. This is one trainwreck that I am not going to miss.
