Heckboy

I haven't been felling very "bloggy" lately... not sure why. I think maybe because I'm waiting for the big news. Things seem to revolve around waiting lately, and it makes everyday goings-on seem less than noteworthy. That's not really a good way to experience life, so I'll try to shake the mindset.

Liz and I went to see a free sneak preview of "Hell Boy" tonight. We both thought it was fun. Lots of action, cool effects, and a story that did a good job of explaining the characters while keeping the momentum going. I have to admit that while I'm a little bit of a comic geek, I've never really read Mike Mignola's HellBoy" books. I don't know how the fanboys will react... probably like fanboys usually do. "Hey! That's out of continuity! In issue 17, Abe Sapian said he prefered macadamia nuts to rotten eggs..." Oye.

"Then they would say, `What if you call him Hellboy and he comes from Hell and all that, but he looks like a guy?' Then they would suggest things like, `Can he have a Hellmobile?' `Can he have a dog? A pet dog that comes from hell and is red?'"
