Wedding Bells


I'd like to ask for you patience as posts from Palaba here on Palaba's Post are going to be even more stagnant than they have lately. I know it may be hard to bear, what with the vast internet and all its cool free music, movies, games and opinions without the lazy rants of a guy trying to enjoy the internet on the cheap but take some solace in knowing that while I'm not here I'm preparing for my wedding at the end of May. I wouldn't expect to see posts around here on a daily basis until late June. So please enjoy your spring and check back from time to time as I'll update when I can, but not with any regularity.

Read the first 10 pages of Marvel's Secret Invasion/New Iron Man Trailer


Over at Entertainment Weekly's online outlet EW.com, Marvel showed off it's newest summer "event" Secret Invasion, by giving the readers the first 10 (Well 8 really) pages of the first issue. I am quite excited about the new comic crossover, but don't feel to crazy about it taking 8 months to reslove. I'm just not that patient, thats why I usually just buy the trades when Marvel releases them a year or so later.
Check it out here at EW.com

EW.com also has an interview with Secret Invasion's writer Brian Michael Bendis HERE

And check out the new TV trailer for Iron Man Here...

Almost every episode of South Park online for FREE! (Legal too!)

The brilliant Trey Parker and Matt Stone along with the wonderful people at comedy central have started streaming virtually every episode of South Park online Hulu style. The site looks great, you can choose from a small fan favorites section or select the season and episode and magically a new window pops up for your viewing pleasure! The site is entirely add supported with both banner adds and some commercials during the episode, it's still less than on TV. The site also has flash games, a production blog, forum, an episode guide and clips from the upcoming episode. The site is still in it's beta, only problem I had was with the chat, but a friend told me he couldn't get full screen to work, but mostly it's very smooth. I don't know what you're waiting for go, watch the episodes, and click on the adds so with any luck Comedy Central will realize what a good idea this is and put more shows on the air. (With any luck Reno 911) Check it out at www.southparkstudios.com when your done please come back here and tell me YOUR favorite episode in the comments so I can go watch and laugh too.

Cosmic Comix Website Relaunch!


My Favorite small comics site has just recently re-launched with a more "bloggy" feel to it. You can check out current 0r upcoming releases for comics and action figures, listen to the podcast Comic Book Conversations or read news and reviews for the in house review guy Shawn Douglas. Shawn's reviews are always an entertaining read, I don't always agree with him, but since vowing to only review what he likes put him quite ahead of all the amateur bashers who call themselves comic reviewers that in my opionon. plauge the web. Not that i want every review I read to be flowers and sun shine, but sometimes it seems like bloggers play a game called "Who can bash it first!"
Any way it's a good group of people who are always entertaining to listen to or read and the site is currently add free. (unless you count the fact that the site is kinda an add for the comic store)
