Cracks
Maybe just maybe I have to keep continuously breaking until all my cracks are filled with light Until all that surrounds me is no longer the dirt that buried me

Quiet Life
Sometimes I forget myself, my mind is often somewhere else, I wish to plan a date with me, but life has kept me so busy. And when I think “I’ve time to spare, I’ll fit me in my day somewhere”,

The Forgotten and Undying Ones, Part 5: Dr. Strange and Spider-Man
One of the best easter eggs in the Dr. Strange movie is a Spider-Man reference (essentially, indirectly, if you fudge it a little), and one of the first superheroes to be mentioned by name in a Spider-Man movie is Dr. Strange, but Dr. Strange and Spider-Man have been crossing over since early in their mutual existence despite significant superficial dissimilarities. This is because they were both created by Steve Ditko, and putting them together is a nod to Ditko’s two greatest creations. In Spider-Man 2, Ted Raimi’s character briefly considers “Dr. Strange” as a name for Dr. Octopus, just a trivial throw away joke, but the more significant Spider-Man easter egg in the Dr. Strange movie comes in the form of the Wand of Watoomb, Wong’s weapon of choice in the final battle, which first appeared in Spider-Man Annual #2 in 1964. The oldest floppy issue of Dr. Strange I own is a reprint of this story under the Dr. Strange title that came out in 1969. It’s also the Dr. Strange floppy I spent the most for: a whopping $5. One of the greatest things about Dr. Strange is that most of his comics are very cheap. You can get some real masterpieces for a buck, and this classic was a steal for five bucks. This first meeting between the two great sons of Ditko sets the pattern for many meetings to come, most of which involve the Wand of Watoomb and Xandu as the villain.

Best of Studio Ghibli Films
Studio Ghibli is a Japanese animation studio commonly referred to as the ‘Japanese Disney’ and just like our lovable Disney films, Ghibli titles can be very hard to choose from. While I have placed a top 10 list here, I honestly feel that many of these titles could be called my favourites but I had to choose a number one spot.

Lifeless
I don't talk, I won't talk, I can't... talk. Not to you. Not now, not ever. I am invisible forever. Or am I? I've discovered that these walls are not all stone.

I Saw Myself In the Morning Mist
I saw myself in the morning mist as it hovered o'er the lake. While I watched the vapor vanish, I realized my fate. The mist keeps rising skyward,

Scariest Video Game Enemies
Video games created with storylines, unfortunately, come to an end point once completing the game, but what is it that makes these games so difficult and entertaining? Beating the evil enemies, or "bosses" if you will create disruption in your path to beating the game. As games go on, your enemies get larger, stronger, and scarier. Whether they are giant monsters, disease-ridden creatures, or some disgusting mutant that was once a person just like us, you do not want to cross their paths. Well too bad because these games are designed for you to come across these enemies at any given time. Let's take a look at the scariest video game enemies.

Clockwork Man
There's a man sat upon a counter, staring into space. Look closely and you see an empty expression on his face. After the light is switched off and door locked, he'll begin to breathe.
