MGK Versus Wizard’s Top 200 Comics Characters Of All Time List, Part One

Posted by MGK Published in Comics

So Wizard Magazine – yes, that Wizard Magazine – recently published their “top 200 characters of all time” list. The only reason I know this is because I got emails and comments in large numbers asking me for my take on this. (God knows why. I mean, I’m not Scott McCloud or anything.) My take, […]

Heads Up

Posted by MGK Published in The Site

I’m moving to new digs today, and my home net access won’t be solid until Friday at the earliest, so posting over the next week will likely be lighter than usual.

4e

Posted by MGK Published in Gaming

The fourth edition Dungeons and Dragons rulebooks have leaked onto the interwoobs, and out of curiosity I decided to take a look. I highly doubt I’m going to sit down and play straight D&D ever again – standard fantasy RP doesn’t interest me any more, hasn’t for years, I find whatever RPG interests I have […]

One More Reason Why The Australian “So You Think You Can Dance” Is Better Than The American Version

Posted by MGK Published in It's The Youtube, Obligatory So You Think You Can Dance Category, TV

In the final episode, the judges and choreographers dance in the big opening routine along with the contestants. And they are good. Honestly, that’s a sort of national character thing right there.

Thursday WHO’S WHO: The Manhawks

Posted by MGK Published in Comics, Who's Who

Every Thursday, mightygodking.com returns to the pages of Who’s Who, the classic 1980s DC comic book encyclopedia of their characters. Every week, a character shall be judged on the only scale scientific enough that matters: the Rex The Wonder Dog scale of fantasticosity. I have to admit, I am completely torn this week. On the […]

Law stuff.

Posted by MGK Published in Canadian Politics, Law, The Internets

Another week, another posting from me at The Court – this week is a critique of the recent ruling in Canada v. Khadr, which should be of interest to some of my American audience, seeing as how it concerns a Guantanamo Bay detainee.

Movies You Have Not Seen But You Should See (Because They Are Good) #12

Posted by MGK Published in Flicks, Movies You Have Not Seen But Should See

Another film that got overlooked in theatres, and although most who have seen it sing its praises (and given the subject matter that is kind of a bad pun), it still hasn’t found the audience it rightly deserves on DVD as of yet. Right now it’s mostly a cult flick. Saved is an excellent film […]
