I'm not dead yet

So it's been a while since my last post. I've been quite busy with finishing up school and searching for a job, but things have finally begun to settle down in my life so I am going to try sticking to a regular update schedule from now on.

Anyway, a few pieces of business. First off, I am thinking of switching things up on the blog by redefining what I mean by Realms. The change will have me writing about whatever I feel like, but will still primarily be about sci-fi/fantasy topics.

The second piece is just me using the rest of this post to check in on the status of my previous posts and then new stuff will begin to appear next time I write a post (which I hope will be a lot sooner than this one was).

Okay. First is No Ordinary Family. I gave up on this show shortly before the fall finale as it did not live up to my expectations. It has since been cancelled.

Next up is Crossgen Comics. Marvel Comics has begun putting out new material, but it does not continue the stories set up at the original company. So far, they have released two mini-series, one that was radically different from the original and one that stuck very close, with a third one beginning in a few months.

Lastly, Disney has so far not acquired the film rights to any of the Marvel movie properties, but the last time I was at Disneyland I saw some merchandise from this summer's Marvel movies, Thor and Captain America so it is likely just a matter of time before the properties are brought under the Disney umbrella.

That's all for this week. Hopefully, I will actually be able to adhere to a schedule. If I do there should be a new post on a new topic sometime during the upcoming week so keep your eyes peeled.
