Supa Hiro
My roommate Min Jung claims that she was deprived as a child and is making up for lost time. That’s why she has the TV on all the time as background noise even if it’s just … noise. I call bull because I lived through my formative years in a place that only have 4 channels of TV, two of which were bad Cantonese soaps and the other two were sorry excuses for English channels and I do just fine without a TV.
Yet I’ve been sucked into more and more shows lately. I’ve always followed the standard fare like 24 and Lost (both of which jumped the shark) through uh cough DVD but now I’m actually sucked into shows every week. The most significant of which is, of course, Heroes.
Gee, that’s a shock, eh? Kevin, the guy who tours around talking about comics is into the new TV series on people with superpowers. Shock! Horror! Well, yeah, it’s not actually surprising. Plus, it’s a show with Ali Larter. I still wish Hiro actually said to his dad (George Takei), “You are not my father! Mr. Sulu is!”
Hey by the way, I’m trying to do a workshop on Comics and Design at the IA Summit. Everyone seemed to like the short presentations last year but so far, not a lot of people have signed up for the workshop. If you don’t get to it soon, I don’t think we’re gonna bother so … if you’re thinking about it, stop thinking and start registering … please?
