Originally released as a 12 part limited series from 1986, Alan Moore’s Watchmen is quite possibly the greatest graphic novel ever. The first of it’s kind… blah, blah, blah, revolutionized comic books blah, blah, blah…
The real interesting thing about this is: Some people think he writes the future… or his own stylized dramatization of it. I saw V for Vendetta and to be honest… It looks alot like what I see out my window today. “The Voice” definitely reminds me of Fox News.
Watchmen is currently being added to the list of movies adapted from his books that he wan’ts absolutely nothing to do with. Also included on this list is From Hell, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and V for Vendetta

Fight the Future.
Spider-Man: Reign is a four-issue comic book limited series featuring Spider-Man, written and illustrated by Kaare Andrews and published by Marvel Comics. Set 35 years into Spider-Man’s future, it features a retired Spider-Man who returns to combat the injustices of a vastly different New York City.
The series has been compared to Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, a comparison which Marvel has also quoted when promoting Reign. As well as the thematic similarities between the two stories, both of which revisit aged heroes after the end of their careers, The Dark Knight Returns is also acknowledged within the pages of Reign by the inclusion of a character named Miller Janson (the name reflects Dark Knight Returns creators Frank Miller and Klaus Janson).

Doktor Sleepless is a fairly new series by one of my Top 5 writers, Warren Ellis. You may or may not know him as the nutjob that wrote Transmetropolitan.
He also just recently published his first novel, “Crooked Little Vein”.
If you haven’t heard of him, you’re a sucker*. If you have heard of him, you already know that Doktor Sleepless is some next shit that should be purchased as it is available to do so. Just read it. Nothing I say can really even begin to explain what this is about. 6 issues deep, catch up and join me as the next 60+ issues roll out:

Genetic markers in our DNA were used to track the path of modern man out of it’s home of Africa to go on to populate the rest of the globe. They began with the oldest living group of people (tribe) on the planet. I could definitely see how this one group (or whichever group they came from) gave birth to such a diverse spectrum of skintones and other physical characteristics.

I used to really love chess. As a matter of fact I used to be great at it. I’ve only lost to my father as he taught me to play, and even he couldn’t keep up with me when I really got good at it.
Then it became one of those many things that I just got bored with. It’s not fun when you always win. After that it’s just me feeding my gluttonous ego. And, I never really cared enough to seek out better opponents. In NC we didn’t have parks full of old men and hooded-out Bobby Fischers thinkin they can whoop my ass. So I just stopped playing. Went YEARS without playing and now… I can’t seem to beat the damned computer on my MacBook (and I refuse to set it to easy). It’s like that time I forgot how to **** * *****.
WT5?
But now… Something has peaked my interest. Something like Wu Chess. I finally have a reason and a way to brush up on my black & whites.
The RZA started a new website for online chess. Live matches, lessons, tournaments, and exhibitions. I’m cool enough to admit how geeky that shit is. Oh and as a bonus they even say they plan on donating a large part of revenue to the Hip-Hop Chess Federation to fund scholarships. I pre-registered and everything.
The question is, if you become my competition, how will you fare?
