02:01 am [proteus_lives] [Link]	The God of Mischief Has Been Cast. (Non-Girl Loki News) Greetings True Believers! Here is the actor that has been cast to play Loki in the upcoming Thor movie. He looks reasonable but I see Loki with dark hair. He'll need some hair color. What do you TB's think. Also, I'm providing the link to the first Sherlock Holmes trailer. Robert Downey Jr. is Holmes and Jude Law is Watson. I'm conflicted, the film looks entertaining but....it doesn't seem like Holmes. I'll be interested to see the comments on it. Enjoy!

02:36 pm [suzene] [Link]	Aetheric Mechanics Title: Aetheric Mechanics (Avatar Press, 2008, 46 pages) Creators: Warren Ellis (writer), Gianluca Pagliarani (pencils) Availability: In print. A Sherlock Holmes pastiche as written by Warren Ellis. When I first posted this back at the old comm, I described it as "what awesome will be once it grows hair on its chest and finds the confidence to talk to girls". I stand by this opinion. ( 1907. London, England. Our POV character, Dr. Richard Watcham, returns home from the Ruritanian War... ) It's not what you think. Anyway -- good book. Lots of fun. Deserves your money.
