I’m back from my honeymoon in New York and the WedWebcomic is updated.
I just got back into town and quickly updated the webcomic. Don’t expect too many posts until the weekend even though I am back in town. I have to unpack and get my regular and work life back under control.
I’m off to watch my first Cavs game on TV… the wedding and honeymoon interfered with my Cavs and Comic time… but it was worth every lost moment… except the ones I am wasting typing this…
More updates this weekend.
Check out this week’s webcomic here:

One never realizes how much time sports takes up, especially when your home (favorite) team is in the playoffs.
Last Saturday the Cleveland Indians’ win over the Boston Red Sox in Game 2 or the ALCS took over 5 hours. Most baseball games last between 3 and 4 hours, which is not as bad as 5. On a weekday 3 to 4 hours is a large chunk, almost the whole chunk, of my night… and this round of the playoffs can go 7 games.
So I present to you some Baseball love from Young Justice #27, and remember
GO TRIBE!



Last week in Comics will not be posted tonight. It will be posted tomorrow.
Instead I am watching my hometown Cleveland Indians lead the New York Yankees 6 to 2.
This is my 7th inning strech… GO TRIBE!
Last night was Friday Night Fights, tonight:

Boxing is one of those sports that was once bigger than life. In the past the world champion was more of a superstar than any other person in the United States. No football, NBA, or MLB player held more clout than the champ. Boxers were so well respected as athletes and warriors of the common people that some comic book characters started out as boxers.
Wildcat, Ted Grant, was nothing more than a boxer who put on a costume and successfully fought crime, and even helped save the world a couple of times. Tonight I look forward to watching a local boy named Kelly Pavlik from Youngstown, Ohio wail on Jermain Taylor.
Another local superstar, and player of my favorite NBA team, LeBron James will host SNL tonight. I will record SNL so that I can enjoy the fight with my friends, but after the fight it’s on - literally. After watching the hype of the local high school star, watching the hype of the Cleveland Cavs’ rookie phenom, watching the comedy of Nike’s commercials, and watching him co-host the ESPYS I can’t wait to see if LeBron and Andy Samburg collaborate on a song.


This was the only panel I enjoyed from The Flash 232… and I just happened to be eating a piece of chocolate cake while reading it.

With a pose like that in Countdown 32, I can’t imagine anyone attempting to Photoshop Black Canary doing any unspeakable things.

“Stacy’s mom has got it going on…” I don’t really know that song; but like these gentlemen from Countdown 32, I too enjoy seeing freaky soccer moms.

“Mongo like candy!”
Not only is JLA - Hitman #1 entertaining, it plays homage to Blazing Saddles.
Sheriff Bart reaches into his pants: “Excuse me while I whip this out”

Nope, I didn’t like them then and I don’t like them now. I am scared to death of clowns. I puke almost every time I am near one. Maybe this image from Catwoman 71 explains why.

First Batman is a Cleveland Browns Backer, and now we find out that Arion is a Cleveland Cavs fan in Superman #667.
Arion may be the Lord of Atlantis, but LeBron is the King of the Court.

Don’t believe him Clark it is the Bizzaro issue of Action Comics #855:
There is not more to life than football.

I guess DC has finally jumped on the zombie bandwagon in The Four Horsemen #1.

Not only is he appearing in almost every Marvel Comic, Wolverine takes on Karate Kid in Countdown #35.

My stomping ground exists in the DCU since Outsiders Five of a Kind’s final issue takes place in Cleveland.
Batman is a Browns Backer.
Last Week In Comics is my answer to all those bloggers out there who have enough dough to purchase every comic available, or work at a comic shop. I try to read as many issues that I can and only purchase my regular titles and ones I decided may be worth my hard earned cash.
There are a couple of comics that I did not include in this week’s post… I was thinking about writing a real review… maybe…
My buddy Nick created this petition in attempt to lure Brady Quinn to Cleveland Browns training camp while negotiating his contract.
We all know that these petitions don’t necessarily work, but maybe someone will notice the support for cause.
So please, if you care about the Cleveland Browns or football in general, click the link and place you digital John Hancock on the petition.
*EDIT 1:10pm
“Brady Quinn has agreed to a five-year contact with the Cleveland Browns worth $20.2 million, with $7.75 million guaranteed, ending his holdout.”

“You are no longer just representing yourselves and your city, you are representing the Eastern Conference, and so I’m going to end by saying: Make me proud,” Bill Russell to LeBron James and the Cavs
“Few fan bases know sports torture like Clevelanders … “ Marc Stein ESPN
“This is special. This is so special, man! This is the best thing that ever happened to me, but listen here: It doesn’t stop.” LeBron James
“LeBron’s mother wasn’t even alive when Cleveland won its last pro sports title.” Chris Sheridan ESPN
“People have beem emailing me that Mike Brown is a terrible coach. People have been emailing me that LeBron James has no decent teammates. If all those people are right, how the hell is Cleveland ahead in the fourth quarter when LeBron James gets his second basket?” Hennry Abbott ESPN
“I love Gregg Popovich, But we’re going down there to beat his butt.” Danny Ferry Cavs General Manager and former Spur employee
“I’ll take LeBron and his no-names, thank you.” Mark Stein ESPN
“Our fans deserve this more than any fans in America,” LeBron James

Do I need to say anything else?
Nobody knows how ecstatic I am today!
Highlights of Daniel “Boobie” Gibson’s amazing fourth quarter going 5 for 5 from 3-Point land:
I called in before game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals that Daniel “Boobie” Gibson would be the “Pippen” to LeBron’s “Jordan”… Sara is my witness, but we are all Wittinesses to the Cleveland Cavilers!
Proof that Boobie is LeBron’s Pippen:
It all comes down to a couple questions:
It is can all be over tonight… and if it isn’t it will probably be over in the wrong way Monday at Detroit.
I made a prediction with my best friend Thirsty that the Cavs would win this series vs Detroit in six game… Yes it was the fan in me that gave them the chance when logic, stats, and every professional analyst told the world that the Cavs would loose.
I think that Cleveland will win tonight, and if they don’t it will be next to impossible for them to win again at the Palace in Auburn Hills… but I will never loose hope!
This time LeBron will not even have to score 48 like in game five. If you didn’t see Bron-Bron, or as Thirsty nicknamed him “Dunk-a-roo”, he was amazing! It was something that I will never forget - and if you were lucky enough to see it, you were witness to NBA history being made! LeBron scored 29 of the Cavs last 30 points in the game, 25 points in a row!
TWENTY-FIVE POINTS IN A ROW!
LeBron outscored a whole team of all-star players by himself… history ladies and gentlemen, history.
If you don’t believe that history is being made just ask Detroit’s mayor Kilpatrick, he was seen hugging Mr. LeBron James after his amazing win on Thursday. (don’t believe me check the link)
If you did miss those magic moments here it is the last layup for the win with about 22 seconds left in the game… watch history and more importantly watch as four Detroit Piston players cower at his highness, King James
LeBron James: 48 points, 7 assists, 9 rebounds, 2 steals, 50 minutes, 22 years old. - ‘Nuff Said!
* In 1989 Michael Jordan hit a game winning basket over Craig Ehlo with 3 seconds in the game keeping the Cavs from entering the NBA Finals.
** John Elway drives down the field to prevent the Browns from going to the Superbowl in 1987.
*** The Browns were denied another entrance to the Superbowl by the Broncos after Earnest Byner fumbled the ball with only 3 yard to go for the win.
**** In 1997 the Indians were 2 outs away from winning the World Series until the closer Jose Mesa gave up 2 runs for a final score: Marlins 3 - Indians 2.
