Generation Kill - fantastic.

The Middleman, ep. 4 - the little series that grew on me. Natalie Morales gets better each week. The roommate, however, is starting to grate. Best new phrase - "drama vampire." Yeah, I know a few of those.

Fight Club - fuck me but Palahniuk is as good as everyone says he is. Christ, that's a first novel? I need to up my game.

Fables vol. 10 - after issue no. 50's misguided mash-note to some of Israel's most fucked-up and counter-productive practices, I've had to work to stick with the series. Increasingly feels like a conservative apologia wrapped in a revisionist faerie tale but still worth reading. So far.

X-Force - a surprisingly violent and bloody comic from main-stream Marvel. Wolverine, Thunderbird and X-23 go out and kill people who kill mutants. A lot. Thematically, it has the same problem as Fables's "the solution to being hunted is to become a bigger bastard than the hunters" subplot but by acknowledging the problem, X-Force is potentially really interesting. If they don't punk out.

The Sarah Connor Chronicles comic-con interviews at The Sarah Connor Society. Nothing like actually being at Comic Con but with you can FF through the most cringe-worthy parts of the Q&A (thank God).
