Comics: Lost #1 (of 4)
Written by: Derek Glascock
Art by: Jaysin Osterkamp
A word of warning before we get started: this comic book has nothing to do with JJ Abrams’ television series and this is a comic intended for mature readers.
Lost isn’t about super heroes, there’s no action and well, nothing really happens. I’m not bashing the book; in fact, these are the qualities that make it so endearing. Chazz is an aspiring writer who does his best avoiding the monotony of life in the 21st century; he’s an idealist who studies those who have long given up on their childhood hopes and dreams for inspiration. He works a dead end job and spends his free time hanging out with his two friends Petey and Rog.

Television: Burn Notice: Season 2
Season 2 of the USA Network’s hit show Burn Notice picks up right at the cliffhanger from last season.
For those of you who don’t know what is going on, last season ended with
Michael Westen being loaded into the back of a semi and being carted off to
meet with the mysterious woman who has been contacting him. What is that you
say? Never heard of Burn Notice?
Well, here is a quick recap to get you up to speed: The show revolves around
the life of an ex-spy named Michael Westen who has been “burned” by his agency.
This means that he is completely cut off from everything he previously had
access to as a spy. Now Michael has to find out who burned him.

Misc.: Star Trek: Wrath of Khan Phaser
So, I went to Wizard World Chicago this weekend and much to my surprise, I was able to see the new Phaser from Art Asylum/Diamond Select Toys! When I arrived on Friday, the person I spoke with said that the prototype would be arriving on Saturday. First thing Saturday I made my way to the booth and to borrow a quote…."There she is (or was in this case)!"

Comics: Star Trek: Assignment Earth
During the second season of Star Trek: The Original Series, Gene
Roddenberry wrote an episode that he planned to be a pilot for another

that was raised by highly advanced aliens and trained to work at
protecting the human race. Together with his beautiful shape shifting

the better episodes of Trek’s three-year run. Gary Seven and company
lived on in various novels including the Khan books by Greg Cox.
