    Speaking of geek, I just broke down and subscribed to Marvel Digital Comics. Heck of a lot of content for $60. No, you don't get the up-to-the-minute satisfaction of a printed book, but it's pretty sweet to be able to sit and read an entire story arc in one shot and not worry about missing something.

    And I think I'm much more of a Marvel guy. Except for Batman, DC doesn't do much for me.

    New Gunsmith Cats? Do ya mean "new to you", or honto ni NEW?!?!

    I'm not a big manga fan, I like animation. The only manga I have in the house is the last Rurouni Kenshin story arc, and that was just because the folks animating the story screwed up so badly after the Shishio arc. Hey, 2/3rds of a masterpiece is better than none at all, right?

    I've got the Gunsmith Cats OVA. Love the characters. I might reconsider my stance on manga if there's better stories in the books...

    Notice Rally's heel-and -toe at about :57sec or so...

    New to me, the "Burst" series that came out a year or 2 ago. Pick up the trade paperbacks of the origanol, it's a great read.

    Figured you guys would nail that right away, I should have used one of the girls

    Souichi didn't drive a Locost, he drove a Caterham Super Seven JPE! Baddest of the bunch at the time, a Vauxhall Touring Car motor stuffed into a Seven. Had the record for the fastest 0-60 or 0-100-0 time for a while there. The finale of the series revolves around how you have to take care of your Seven and not abuse it.

    I've seriously considered putting an eX-D sticker on my Seven.
