Here are 10 uncontestable reasons why Smokey is The Greatest.

But these are our favorites. The Tears of a Clown. Smokey who wrote the lyrics, to galloping calliope-like music by Stevie Wonder and Harry Crosby is heartbroken, and hiding behind a painted-on smile. And it only gets better from there. The Tracks of My Tears. Smokey and Linda performed it as a duet, famously, on the Motown 25 TV special in I Second That Emotion. Going to a Go-Go. From the insistent drums that open the song, to the crackling guitars and the heart-stopping horns, Smokey and the Miracles defy you not to get up and move.

Two minutes and 51 seconds of pure, unadulterated joy. Smokey Robinson Sunday, April 12 at 7 p. Manaffey Theater, 1st Street S. Petersburg Ticket and parking info here.

Call it Easy Listening, call it Middle of the Road. Ferrante and Teicher as they were known were one of the most popular concert acts among older audiences; the Juilliard-trained pair played the classics, they played the Great American Songbook, they played romantic-dinner music. They played with full orchestras.

I like the dialogue in Huck Finn - if you read my post again, it specifically says it's one of those things that you don't change. And please spare me the "Watchman is a masterpiece," line. I agree - but I'm not gonna call it the Dead Sea Scrolls or anything like that. It seems like it could be a very interesting comic but, I don't know why, that preview reminded me of the old Paradigm series that was published by Image a while ago.

I didn't think it seemed right either, because Ghost made a lot of it. To me, he was just painting a picture of what Moonstone wanted to hear rather than what's really behind the mask, but that's just speculation on my part. I didn't get that sort of nuanced view of Huck Finn from the original article.

I actually agree, partially, with the statement that the Bizarro world is easily mishandled. At its best, it's an absurdist homage to Silver Age comics, but at its worst it's nothing but a one note joke. Twain, however, has a distinct purpose with his use of dialect. He's attempting to elevate quotidian language to the level of great art.

I love his ideas, but I don't always love his execution. Still, I always find myself rooting for the guy. I tried jumping onto his acclaimed JLA run in progress and found it to be a clusterfuck of nonsense. Although to be fair, I was told afterward that the storyline I happened to try out was probably his worst on his run. What a complete moment of human fail. I'm a pretty flaming liberal, but I still wanted to kick that fucker in the balls for that one, if for the timing of it alone. Now I tend to toss him into the same category as Dave Sim and the like.

Have they created stuff worth reading?

But the list of great literature that I've yet to get around to reading is long enough that I don't really feel like passing their work by is depriving me of anything. First, thank you for being a fan, it is truly appreciated. And if you would like us to review more books, you can send the money to buy said books directly to my PayPal account.

I would also appreciate a stipend so I can quit my day job and actually have time to review more books. You know this shit is volunteer work man Although I will take the criticism of we don't do enough and people actually want more from us. This comic is obviously not written for modern kids, but for people who grew up watching the old show. Now in my '30s, I really enjoyed the weird look at Darkwing "latter days" in the initial "Duck Knight Returns" storyline.

Product description

I like having the updates on how this book is going and what stories are going on now. A plot with the water supply? Dare I hope for Thanks for catering to us old fans. The Archie review was pretty fascinating reading too, I gotta say. Not that I'm going to read Archie anytime soon, but I appreciated the insight into the appearance of two major political figures.

Ignore the Talkback haters hatersa nd keep it up. I don't get it. You were waiting to see Obama and Palin in a comic book, but you don't want them to put a political slant on it? They're supposed to bake cakes or do the crossword or something? Just what exactly were you looking forward to? Sure occasionally we get comps, but usually, most of us review what we buy hence the reason why our reviews come out a week after the comics are released. I wish I could go out and buy every comic that comes out every week, but no one can cover every book on the stands each week.

So if you don't like this week's batch, check out last week's or next week's, they might be to your liking. Plus, last week was and always has been the lowest when it comes to comics released. I'm sure next week, there'll be plenty more to talk about. I double-checked after I finished it to make sure it was still Jeff Parker and Kev Walker at the reins.

Is hands down one of the best things I've ever read. And all the men seem pretty manly to me Like when Supes fucks up Atlas and Sampson in the duel arm wrestling contest. He's credited with doing the cover. Only Pichelli is credited with interiors, and they look entirely consistent with her style which I love for the book.

This is still the best Spider-Man comic ever, by the way. Manning, are you implying that Henry Higgins was factually way off-base in one of his reviews?

That's a bold move there. He had a few good ideas like the bombing of Genosha, but for the most part I kind of hate his work. That's my only contribution to the community this week. Which JLA did you try?

That would be a tough one to get into, but it ends iconically. Or the Prometheus intro.
