Boy is it a ragedy, gray ass day today...I shuffled through Hollywood shuffling the Stones on the ole' ipod as I embarked on a quest for coffee and perhaps check and see if the new "New Avengers" was out yet...I don't know what the hell happened but lately I've gone off the deep end just absorbing comics...I mean I used to collect in high school but got really pissed at the whole business when all those ridiculous crossovers just kept coming out, raking us broke ass young 'uns over the coals to keep up...I was always proud of my Spiderman #129...Not a very crispy copy, but it was worth a few bucks at the time...Matter of fact I sold my whole friggin' collection to help move my monkey ass out to California...And it wasn't until a few months ago, but a buddy (my comic guru) Adam keeps turning me onto the coolest stuff...I guess I had always been in it for the art...But I've been writing a superhero story so I've really gotten into more of the writing aspect...It's WAY edgier than back in the day...Man oh man...Wonder Woman broke this dudes neck...On purpose!!! But now, with my guru's sage guidance, I've discovered a lot of great stories...I'd have to say The New Avengers and The Authority are by far my favorites right now...The new Ghost Rider is pretty right on too...The artist for that is operating on a whole other level...

Anyway, enough of that...Lemme share what I had shufflin' around today because it sure hit the spot...

02. Jig-Saw Puzzle
03. Dead Flowers

A little faded, but I wouldn't say stoned,
