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 19, 2017: That Dark Matter Dark Timeline Revealed!
Back in 2012, I went out with a well-developed plan for a space opera, one with a beginning, middle and end to every storyline and character arc, answers to every question. It was to be a self-contained and satisfying narrative. But after the show was green lit and we went into production, those plans changed…
December 18, 2017: The Dark Timeline revealed? Some clues!
Well, this sums it up nicely. Compliments of the gang at River's Reavers, a group of Firefly Online gamers looking to recruit crew for job's that need to get done. Thanks to Erika for bringing it my attention. So, back when I did my last twitter Q&A, #DarkGate round 2 for the international fans, I made…
December 17, 2017: My Snow Monkeys are headed to the league championship!
It's not quite a final, but up 65+ points with only one player to play against, we can give my Snow Monkeys the W and stamp their ticket to the big dance. Next week, it's the championship game and my Snow Monkeys have opened as slight 3 point favorites. And with a starting lineup like…
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 14, 2017: Shows I will absolutely, positively, FINALLY, check out in 2018! A Top 10 List!
TWIN PEAKS I loved the first season of this delightfully weird series; the second season less so. Never saw the prequel movie, but I'm all sorts of curious to check out the new, 20 years later, series that has been both revered and reviled...just like the original. VIKINGS This one looks epic. BLACK SAILS Pirates!…
December 13, 2017: Best Comic Book Covers of the Week!
My favorites - Lady Killer vol. 2 (cover art by Joelle Jones) Black and white and read all over. With a shock of green in those gorgeous eyes. Joelle Jones is fast becoming my favorite artist working in comics. Bloody sexy. Mr. Miracle #5 (cover art by Nick Derington) I'm a sucker for these atypical…
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 11, 2017: Dark Matter Secrets Revealed!
The highlights from #DarkGate Round 2, another Dark Matter/Stargate-related Q&A. On the mysterious Cyrus King... What of Solara Shockley? What episode idea did Episode 309, "Isn't That A Paradox?" replace? As for what else we had in store for ONE/Derrick Moss... On Ryo, Misaki, and Teku... And how would FOUR have adjusted to life…
December 10, 2017: A DarkGate reminder! Akemi’s Science Fact of the Day! And celebrating a Snow Monkeys win!
As I mentioned yesterday, I'll be hitting twitter tomorrow for a second round fan Q&A. If you have any Dark Matter and/or Stargate-related questions, feel free to post them. Don't forget to include the #DarkGate hashtag so I can find you and keep track. So, when is this happening? Well, @TeamRazaEurope was kind enough to…

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 7, 2017: Last night’s #DarkGate highlights!
Here are the highlights from last night's Dark Matter/Stargate (#DarkGate) Q&A! Thanks to Tom Gardiner for the banner! On my plans for ONE/Derrick Moss...
