Calvin's Canadian Cave Of Cool Manifesto
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.

comics can't be that good anymore because instead of focusing on epic mythologies and amazing art, the big two spend their time thinking of how they can make a mass story that crosses over every title they publish and the 75 variant covers that go along with them. and like lemmings we buy two of every issue...
I agree. I remember this Batman-Year One and the part where the bats save him from the Gotham police was as epic as it was in Batman Begins.
yeah, seems like most stuff that came out after x-men #1 (90's) is just a bunch of fluff.
just wanted to say that i really enjoy your blog, i visit at least 4 or 5 times a day.
you and i are of a kind. in a different reality i could have called you..."friend".
And the fact that I get that reference is another reason we would be friends in real life.
seriously, everything you post, i'm into: comics, pop culture, redheads...all gold, my man!
