Oh, it's Suji! Sure, she's thrilled with today's Saints victory. But she was equally overjoyed that her new pins have arrived... Designed by Akemi. I think they really capture the spirit of our perennially befuddled little demon. Don't despair, Lulu! Your design is in-progress.
January 6, 2018: Mailbag!
Answering your burning questions... arcticgoddess writes: "This is a question I asked before regarding your travel to and from Montreal and Toronto. Since they are both so close together, do you prefer air, car or train?" Answer: I prefer air for the simple fact we're ten minutes away from the downtown airport and Montreal is…
January 5, 2018: Your NFL Wildcard Weekend Preview and Predictions!
I'm back in Toronto, just in time to give you all my predictions for this weekend's NFL post-season action! MATCH-UP This game is remarkable for spotlighting two of the most unremarkable teams to make this year's playoffs. Sure, the Chiefs were great - for about five weeks at the beginning of the season, but like…
January 4, 2018: Your Gaming Recommendations!
Today on twitter, someone brought this article to my attention again: Dark Matter is Basically a Mass Effect TV Show I say again because I posted a link to the article when it first appeared back in July of 2016. But rereading it got me to thinking. I've never been a gamer only because I…
January 2, 2018: Montreal Days!
So we've been in Montreal a little over a week and I've spent the better part of that time eating. Mom, as always, pulls out all the stops (and ingredients), and I've been fairly inundated with culinary delights: homemade pasta, eggplant parmesan, breaded veal cutlets, spicy peppers, roast lamb, cookies, friendship cake. If I'm not…

December 25, 2017: Let’s all rejoice for tis the season!
And by all, I mean everyone regardless of political, gaming, or religious affiliation. And by rejoice I mean celebrate. And by season, I mean my fantasy football League of Accommodation's post-season playoffs that culminated yesterday in a win for my Snow Monkeys, thus allowing them to secure their first championship since 2011. Okay, technically, it's…
December 21, 2017: Montreal-bound!
Ta-da! Just in time for Christmas. The perfect stocking stuffer! Who could resister their very own Bathing Suji t-shirt? The first in what I suspect will be a long line of Suji-related merchandise - including the pins and lapels Akemi has designed and special-ordered for an early January delivery. Yep, as I've said before, if…
December 20, 2017: Best Comic Book Covers of the Week!
My favorites... Luke Cage #168 (cover art by Rahzzah) Another week, another Rahzzah cover. This one gives me a real creepy Descent vibe. Old Man Logan #32 (cover art by Mike Deodato Jr.) Logan braves a rain of streaking metal weaponry. I feel we're taking in the cover upside-down. The Shadow #5 (cover art by…
December 16, 2017: Dogs, monkeys, and condos!
Stage 2 of The Suji Experiment was a rousing success. While our frenchie, Lulu, settled in nicely at the dogsitter's (ignoring my goodbyes and disappearing down the hall seconds after dropping her off), Suji was a little more uncertain (attempting to follow Akemi out the door when we turned to leave). But, by all accounts,…
December 12, 2017: Is it spring yet?
Bundle up, kids! It's cold outside. It's I'm-not-going-out-unless-I-absolutely-have-to cold. And it's going to get even colder. I mean, come on! What happened to the promise of global warming? Spring in winter? Summer in autumn? A world safe from runaway icebergs and douchey ski pros. More of this - And less of this - Despite the…
December 8, 2017: Thank you’s, t-shirts, and trailers!
And that's a wrap on Project A 2017 writers' room. Over the course of the past five days, we broke the pilot, broad stroked the second episode, bulleted the first episode character arcs, fleshed out the backstory of our aliens, overviewed our five season plan, ate a hell of a lot of breakfast pastries and…
December 5, 2017: Project A!
To be perfectly honest, I was looking forward to some time off. Nothing crazy. Maybe a month. Or six. While a lot of my fellow writers start going stir crazy after a few directionless weeks, I have no problem sleeping in, spending time with my girlfriend and the dogs, and reading into the wee hours.…
December 4, 2017: Busy busy!
A reminder to join us this Wednesday, December 6th, at 10/9c for a Dark Matter/Stargate live tweet event in which I'll be fielding questions and offering insights on my 15 combined years on all four sci-fi productions. Tell your friends! Well, today was Day #1 of the writer's room for one of the projects (let's…
