"Why's everybody always picking on me?"

Hey guys,

Well with the threat of Hurricane Irene looming on the East coast, at least for the poor bastards in NC, I figured I'd post another blog.

As a continuation from my last post, we saw Catman and Deadshot break out of prison. They were on the run, and looking to recruit more guys to rebuild the Secret Six. Let's see what they've been up to since.

Oh, and why do they call themselves the Secret Six if everybody knows who they are? Yeah I know technically they can't and probably won't use the Suicide Squad name, but still.....


Those crazy guys! What'll they do next?

"Tonight's there gonna' be a jailbreak...."

Just a quick one today folks.
Recently visited Wal-mart and was surprised to see DCUC Wave 18's Samurai figure amidst some Wave 14 peg-warmers like Zatanna, Kamandi, and Tyr. I was really deadset against him, but up close, he looks pretty damn good!
Then I went to K-Mart and saw Sodom Yat. I was really surprised, and would have gotten him, but then I saw Catman from the new Batman Legacy line. I was truly surprised that my local K- Mart would even think about carrying this line. Well, I got him, so know the Secret Six has 2 full members, well 2 and half if you count having Bane's right arm.

So with that in mind, here's my new humble sketch:

"You got to accentuate the positive....."

Just a quick one today folk.

Like my buddy Googum@ random happenstance, and countless others, I question the wisdom of DC/Dan Didio in choosing to cancel Gail Simone's Secret Six. Sure DC/Didio will claim that the combination of low numbers/poor sales and the massive DCU reboot is responsible, and to that they'll always have a point. Still, in light of the fact that there's going to be a few cancellations from the upcoming "52", we should all pay close attention to how well BoP and Fury of Firestorm does. If they don't make the grade, and Suicide Squad fails(which it probably will due to fan backlash) than I don't see why Secret Six can't come back. Sure, we all have to wait and see how the various team members get rebooted, especially the fates of Bane, Catman, and the others, but for now at least there's the TPB's to keep us warm at nights.
I admit, I'm a new fan myself, and have a bunch of catch-up to do. But I must say due to various positive rave reviews and reading various spoilers, I all aboard the SS express. Ugh, that's not going to look good.

Here's your zen moment of the day, a.k.a. enjoy the crappy pictures.
