Greg’s Three Cents – The Blue Hood #1
Yet again, I approach a comic review with trepidation. The Blue Hood #1 is published by UGC (that’s Underground Comics Group to you and me, kids). It’s written and drawn by Justin McEvoy. Justin is a customer of mine at Black Cat Comics, so I really didn’t want to piss him off. Well, not really […]

The Only Facebook Game I’ll Support
I am not the biggest fan of Facebook, but I understand that it is THE way people communicate with each other these days. Forget phone calls, or text messages…it’s all about ‘liking’ people and ‘status updates’. While I don’t mind that aspect of the social network, I do NOT relish the idea of game companies […]
