Off the reservation

Whew!

How did it get to be November already?

Anyway.

I’ve been various combinations of ill, overwhelmed and overworked over the last few weeks, so I’m going to take a break from blogging until I can get caught up.

Upcoming entries include the story of my recent Chicago trip to visit my friend Greg, a photo essay of a heart-stopping Hardee’s outing with my friends Aaron and (another) Greg, a recap/review of Jonatha Brooke’s spectacular concert in Cincinnati with Concert Buddy Numero Uno Melissa, and more news on comic books and movies and other things I think you need to know about.

Be good.

And.

I’ll be back.

Why So Serious update: The Joker's latest reveal!

The Joker’s latest trick gave us a new Halloween treat yesterday:

Turn up your computer’s speakers.

Then go to Why So Serious

… and click on the corner of the photo under The Joker’s ransom note.

You’ll get to see the above photo of Heath Ledger as The Joker …

… and you’ll get to hear The Joker say, “Tonight, you’re going to break your one rule.”

Heath looks amazing.

And he’s got a voice from Hell.

I’m so happy about this.

You have no idea.

Totally scary and cool and awesome.

But who’s the driver?

I can’t tell what he’s wearing.

It think it’s a partial clown mask.

Or it might be bandages, suggesting that it might be Harvey Dent?

I can’t tell.

And!

If you click on the photo, it takes you to another new Joker game! Which, of course, will likely reveal yet another awesome surprise.

You can read more about it all right here at Batman on Film.

I’ll be back soon with more articles and updates.

In the meantime, please excuse me while I go cough up more stuff that’s greener than Heath Ledger’s hair.

The Joker's Halloween scavenger hunt begins!

Update:

The message board detectives are predicting that the message is, “The only sensible way to live in this world is without rules.”

What do you think?

And there’s a photograph or something under there.
