Suicide Kings, Minus Christopher Walken

Posted on March 29, 2009January 8, 2025 by eidolon

Good news for Wild Cards fans!  George has told the WC consortium that Tor has scheduled the finale of the Committee Triad, Suicide Kings, for publication this coming December.  Suicide Kings wraps up the story that began with Inside Straight and continued with Busted Flush.

And as with the previous two volumes, Suicide Kings boasts yet another fantastic cover by the amazing Michael Komarck.   I think he’s outdone himself with this cover.  Check it out here and see for yourself.

Watchmen, or, Philistine, Thy Name is Ian

This is the obligatory blog post where I jump on the let’s-discuss-Watchmen bandwagon. It’s also where I reveal that I belong to that strange minority of people who find Watchmen (both the novel and the film) to be way, way overhyped. Other brave souls have already come forward on this delicate and emotionally-charged topic, including Sarah Zettel over at the Book View Cafe, and Vic Milan. Watchmen isn’t terrible, but in my humble opinion, it’s not great  either. Below the cut, I’ll try to explain why it doesn’t work for me.

Spoilers ahoy!
