I am a lineman for the county and I drive the main road.

@SunsetGunShot @newbeverly It was a revelation to realize what a connection there is between The Long Goodbye and The Third Man. Lonely man finds out his "friend" was a bastard that didn't give a crap about him, and the final long walk past someone who could have been a love interest but it didn't happen.

@thetonyisabella Trent is on my list to see. I recommend the new POKER FACE mystery series on Peacock by Rian Johnson with the incredible Natasha Lyonne. A great mash-up of Columbo and The Incredible Hulk (TV series) with a terrific bunch of big stars as villains.

@nlyonne @peacock You are so good in this...like a comfy chair you don't want to get up from. I love the character, seen the downside of the world but still rises to give it some justice and make it a little bit better. Long may she run!

[justin fairfax @jimshegas]

@rianjohnson @peacock @nlyonne This is the show I have wishing for ever since COLUMBO left the air. I was one of the many hoping Natasha Lyonne would do a reboot of that but this is just as great! The sly wit and distinct characters gives this series a very special flavor. Long may Charlie Cale run!

@sdunbier @jpalmiotti It was criminal what DC did to his art for the finished cover.

@ifyoucantwell Great movie! Once went to a theater and saw it on a double-bill with WISE BLOOD, another incredIble Huston film. Nourishment for the soul, they were. Don't get me started on UNDER THE VOLCANO.

@ifyoucantwell "LET"S SAY"

[justin fairfax @jimshegas]

@ifyoucantwell So let's Day that everything that's happened since ASM 122 has been Norman's coma-dream and Sins Past never happened either...hmm.

@GailSimone "You're not a writer until a writer SAYS you're a writer" was a favorite quote Harlan Ellison would often use. Your Gerber memory reminds me of what he meant to me reading him in the '70s. That sense of justice, outrage and compassion for society's misfits.
One of the greats.

@JamesGunn I think a James Gunn CREEPER movie would be quite spectacular! The visuals of an unhinged, chemically-enhanced dude with green hair and yellow skin pummeling bad guys is what this nation needs RIGHT NOW.

@GailSimone Booker. Short-lived spinoff from 21 Jump Street. Decent premise and had the wonderful but underused Marcia Strassman but horrible execution. Theme song was Billy Idol's "Hot In The City" but changed for syndication and home video for money reasons.

@DanSlott @gabrielhardman I saw one page of Kane's Punisher story posted on an original art website. It looked great and I'm sad it will probably never see print.

@GailSimone Just wait until the closing credits to hear Adele sing the title track!

[justin fairfax @jimshegas]

@marcbernardin @LateNightSeth I've met Craig Robinson a few times at work, always very pleasant and funny. Look at you hangin' with the big shots! Now take that power to make things happen and go to Vegas!

[justin fairfax @jimshegas]

@DanSlott Last Night In Soho. You can't beat an Edgar Wright film that has a kind of Doctor Who time-travel mystery, and has Matt Smith and Diana Rigg in it. A must-see for you.

@ifyoucantwell At Blockbuster we would make fun of Suncoast's little sister when she wandered in. In the end we all lost.

@ColleenDoran If Mark Hamill had that head of hair he would have broken the internet by now.

[justin fairfax @jimshegas]

@straczynski I'm not sure how far back the Asner/Ellison friendship goes, but in 1982 Harlan organized a protest against the cancellation (for political reasons) of the Lou Grant show by CBS. I was there, with Harlan and many, many veterans of 1960s and '70s political protests. RIP Ed!

@evandorkin The Jack Kirby Clobberin' Joint should honor all Kirby Kreations equally: The Flying Fetus and Ging Seng get as much respect as The Thing. TAARU!
