Familiarizing the masses with the hobbies and fandoms that elude them. For geeks and non-geeks in search of new pursuits, time-wasters, and obsessions; for longtime fans and total outsiders; for great justice.

Welcome to the first-ever November Edition of Waiting for Wednesday, where there will be absolutely zero talk of Halloween. I promise. I think we've covered that holiday plenty this year, thank you very much.
So, I won't be going into my Halloween...
As you may recall, Alex and I wanted to do something big to celebrate the milestone of having reached 10,000 hits. Normally we celebrate such an occasion by forcing each other to experience one of our favorite hobbies or fandoms, but this time, we...
Alright, so we've already established that I don't like Halloween, so perhaps you're wondering whether I did anything Halloweeny at all. Well, I'll indulge your insatiable curiosity just this once, but then I swear we're not talking about this wretched...
Just because Nathaniel hates Halloween (and, apparently, fun), doesn't mean you have to! Um...hate Halloween (and/or fun), that is. Sorry for the clunky syntax.
Anyway, for your viewing pleasure, some spooky (and awesome!) comic covers...

Ah, October 31st. Probably my least-favorite day of the year.
I don't like Halloween.
I used to like Halloween. When I was a kid, Halloween was a time for me to dress up as one of my favorite TV or video game characters--as Luigi or Geordi LaForge or...
The writing is good, even if the style doesn't always match my tastes. The subjects are usually interesting as well... but the main reason I feel like I can't give a higher rating is that I sometimes feel like I read out of obligation, rather than interest. Some posts interest me, but they always seem to skim the surface rather than delving deeper into a fandom. I feel like a "good" blog writer is able to take a topic and expose the "hidden" points in a way that makes other people want to read/learn more.
Waiting for Wednesday is an example of this; it seems more suited for a hardcore comic blog. As a casual reader of the blog, I don't really care what's coming out, and mini-reviews don't help much to pique my interest, either, unfortunately...
Sorry guys.
Here's to the future!
