Have you read Preacher? I’m not asking because there is a show on AMC based on those comics. I’m not asking because I was on a podcast called “Preacher vs. Preacher: A Comparison Companion.” I’m asking, because it is flat out a great read!
How did I come to find this comic from the 90’s? How did I end up on that podcast? Truthfully, it is all Bill Sweeney’s fault, Bill being a friend and the host and creator of The Wicked Theory Podcast.

Captain America Civil War is indeed a great popcorn movie and another strong addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). But I can’t help but wonder how much you miss if you aren’t fully absorbed into the MCU.
It has all of the action, drama, and comedy, that comes from the great writing we expect from the MCU, but it also stands like a keystone on top of everything that came before it in Phase One and Phase Two.
It has so many callbacks, not just in plot, but in dialogue, that I just have to ask, “can you enjoy this in a vacuum?”

There is something unique about Only When I Laugh, or Only When I Larf, in the original English printing, the first non-spy novel written by Len Deighton. It reads much more like a short story or even a short play than a novel but that’s also what makes it fun to read.

On August 26th, 2015 “The Lunacy Beginneth” when The Reigning Lunatic: A Medieval Miniseries was heralded into the world of podcasting and the internet at large with Royal Episode The First: Goblets.
And while that was a good time to get introduced to the show, some of us waited for April 14, 2016 when the final episode, Royal Episode the Nine: Visit the Smithy, dropped in order to binge the entire miniseries.

The movie was barely in theaters when the negative tweets and reviews started to come across my radar. But it didn’t deter me. I still went to see Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. And there are no spoilers in this post as I don’t want to deter any of you from watching it either.
