In The Beginning...
...there was nothing. Obviously. Anyhoo. My name is birrellesque. No really. It is. I swear. (Well not really). The main aim/purpose/point of this here Blog is the reviewing of stuff. Mainly comics as I have looked around the Interweb and there are vey few good, straight up, review sites for comics. So that's what this will be. Hopefully. This is my first time Blogging (should that have a capital?) so I suspect it will take me a while to get used to the technology. Bear with me in other words.
Now to the comics. I am currently buying somewhere in the region of £100 worth of comics a month. The majority are Marvel (in particular the X-Men which I am a hopeless bed-wetting geek for) but I buy a fair amount of DC as well. Not so much with the Indie stuff though that is a situation I am trying to rectify. I tend to buy my comics on a thursday (yes I am that pathetic, though it's not like I'm outside before it opens... Well not all the time) so the aim is to have the reviews up by the Friday.
And away we go...

"You just said three things that all mean the same thing."
The point, my critical friend, was to suggest a kind of lyrical stuttering - emphasising my nervousness at embarking on this Blogging adventure.
You don't really wet the bed over x-men comics ...do you?
Only the really, really bad ones.
I know, I just wanted to quote The West Wing. And I used to wet the bed over the X books but Claremont made me continent.
Damn. I should have got/known/realised/ that.
Wow so you, like, used literary hesitancy as a device to convey your literary hesitancy in this medium. Layers on layers man.
And Jas is right on the next thread (which is where I should be posting this but I don't get/comply with/understand this medium either) break up the "big review" into wee ones.
Thanks Brucester. As there have now been two requests I will definitely break up the next comic review into chunks.
We folk here at Bigger Boat aim to please...
If I were u, I wouldn't take criticism from someone who's only watched the 1st season of West Wing. He is but a child in a world of men.....By the way, when do I get Season 6 back?!?! ;)
when your no good sister remembers that she does not, in fact, own it. i told her to bring it back through for xmas. oh, and welcome to bigger boat reviews!
Child in the world of men? Get back to me when you've seen all of The Wire. And Birrellesque takes the criticism 'cos he knows it's good for him. Anyone who doesn't understand the unbridled genius that is Equilibrium needs all the help they can get.
