I knew that all of the excitement over my new iPad got me distracted from something. Funny that it took reading comics through the Marvel Comics app to realize that I hadn’t yet taken the time to blog about my picks for this week. Shame on me! There are so many good comics coming out, too! Let’s take a look at this week’s top five picks.

I never expected to fall in love with the iPad as quickly or as deeply as I did, yet here I am, typing this post out on my iPad as I enjoy a beautiful morning in my back garden. iPaul, as I have dubbed my new love (after Sir Paul McCartney), might very well give my boyfriend a run for his money.

I wracked my brains trying to think of exactly what I wanted to say about Kick-Ass after seeing it on Saturday night. It usually takes me a few days to digest these sorts of things — unlike Jorge (Labrador, Editor-in-Chief of the UNLV Rebel Yell newspaper), who started working on his his thoughtful and well-written review of Kick-Ass almost immediately after we left the theater.

In the end, I’m happy to refer you all to Jorge’s review over writing one of my own — but I still thought I’d add to some of what he said with my own thoughts.

The Iron Man 2 movie is coming out in just under three weeks, and in honor of this, I’ve decided to make Stark-Industries.com e-mail accounts available to the public!

For a limited time! yourname@stark-industries.com, only $5!

I originally bought Stark-Industries.com at the same time as I bought this domain, planning on perhaps dedicating it to a completely Iron Man-related wiki site. Unfortunately, time restrictions and obligations never allowed me to actually do anything with the site, so it lay dormant for a few years now.

Thanks to Gmail, however, I’ve been able to make the site useful. Now, for a limited time, you can purchase a you@stark-industries.com e-mail address for only $15. It’s not just an e-mail address, not just a forwarding account. It’s an actual e-mail account that you can log into and both send and receive e-mails with.

Interested? Click the PayPal button below and make your purchase while they’re available! There’s only one rule: it has to be your name or your nickname, not the name of an existing comic/book/etc character. No tonystark@stark-industries.com, or captain.america@stark-industries.com or bruce_wayne@stark-industries.com and so on. Make sure to put your requested e-mail address name in the instructions on the check out page. If the e-mail you want your information sent to is different from your PayPal account, make sure to include that, too.

When I’ve received your payment, I’ll create your custom you@stark-industries.com e-mail account and send you an e-mail with a temporary password and login information. Did you already get your e-mail address? Head over to http://mail.stark-industries.com to log in!

So, what are you waiting for? Join Stark Industries today and get your own personalized e-mail!

For a limited time! yourname@stark-industries.com, only $5!

It’s hard to believe that it’s Monday already! Where does the weekend go? It must have gone by a lot faster than usual thanks to wearing the Flash ring that came with Flash #1.

Anyhow, last week was a pretty great week for comics and this week looks pretty promising, too. Let’s see what Wednesday holds for us this week!
