Summer 2013 Day 3 : Looking for Work

Well, Memorial Day is done and a new work week begins anew. So for me? Time to get back on the trail of a new reviewing job. Since I have not heard back from my Editor over at RKYV in like forever now would be a pretty good time to find a new reviewing job. And that means doing quite a bit to get that done.

I have to get all these blogs updating on a regular basis with contents and updates, looking for new people to follow my reviews as well as have active sites for future Editors to look at my work.

I have to get my podcasting completely back on track and going forward again.

I have to be as active a reviewer as possible, get s one fresh work and exposure to add to my resume.

The first step is rolling along slowly but surely. Step two is waiting for a vital piece of hardware, while step 3... is a work in progress. Lots to do, lots more if I want to impress a future Editor, but all worth it once I nail down a new reviewing job. All fine and all, except for the rather daunting truth that... nobody seems to be hiring at the moment.

A bit of a setback, but that won't stop me from forging ahead all the same. Stiff upper lip and all that. Hopefully this little ongoing narrative in my summer work I'd not s narrative that goes on for too long but, say it with me now, stay tuned.

Summer 2013 Day Zero : Comics I Am Reviewing

As the summer kicks off I put together my content and figure out what I am reviewing during. the summer.Admittedly I need to secure a bit more content yes, but here is a bit of what I am looking at this summer.

That New 52 Smell
At the start of the summer I am presently only reviewing 4 titles. I am going to to try and trade off my old XBox Original for 1-2 subscriptions since Microsoft is on the road to self destruction with the XBox One... Updates as I work on that. In the meantime I am reviewing presently Action Comics, Supergirl, Superman and Teen Titans. Need more, yup, but that is the topic of a future update.

IDW Reviews
Picked up a batch of Doctor Who (Series III) for review, going to stick to that... but to what end? One idea I am considering is a podcast that covers lesser discussed and reviewed content. IDW comics, audio dramas not made by Big Finish including ponified Doctor Whooves, stuff like that. Stay tuned for updates.

That is only the beginning, but at least it is a good start. Updates upcoming.

That New 52 Smell 5/15

Yes, I actually have an update. Surprise?

As May rolls along issues of the New 52 subscriptions are just rolling in like mad... well one more issue then we will get four issues a month until I add on to subscriptions. Anyway so far here is what I am covering next That New 52 Smell, the first episode covering new content.

Issue #18 - We start off with the first issue to arrive in the mail, Superman #18, and the menace of... something. Guest starring Orion of the New Gods and the New 52`s most villainous bobble headed human... seriously.

Issue #19 - This month`s issues we look at the first Andy Diggle issue of Action Comics in #19 (still waiting on it), Super girl power with Power Girl in Supergirl #19, and Wonder Woman in Superman #19 while we look at Teen Titans #19.

As I roll into the summer I am at a bit of a quandary... I don't know if I can add any more subscriptions to the cast but we will see, stay tuned.

As for the next cast? Actually I am presently waiting on progress on this whole laptop scenario going on right now, so when progress is made on that there will be an update but for now... waiting on progress. Sigh. Stay tuned.

Start of the Week 5/12

Well a whole new week is starting off so let's see what is happening.

Despite the fact I said I was headed back to work with RKYV Online... weeks have passed and I haven't heard from my Editor Mr. Pare in -- well, months now. So while I hope to hear from him soon I am going to be looking around for another writing position elsewhere. Updates as I dive into submitting content all about.

Incoming review content I have a few things to review.

- Superman wise I have 2 issues of the New 52 (Superman #18-#19) to review, in That New 52 Smell once I get should of that laptop and start working on casts anew. Over in This Old DC Swag I am looking at at Superman The Sunday Funnies HC, classic Golden Age Superman from the newspapers in a series of content.

- Got some random Spider-Man issues coming in to review in This Old Comic Addict. More on it once I get the issues in.

- Six week waiting period is up for Action Comics and Teen Titans, adding them to the list of subscriptions I am waiting on. So far I have received 2 issues of Superman, and that is that for now... during the Week I talk about my concerns over the missing Supergirl subscription, and knock on wood maybe a response to my latest inquiry from DC Comics.

- Finally working to revive Equestria This Week, covering the first story arc of the comic and Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash of the Micro Series... oh, and catching. up with audio dramas and favorite youtube series, and the latest series to come to a screeching halt midrun much to my dismay.

Well time to get to work.

Getting back on track

Well spending the weekend getting back on track doing all these blogs. For this blog I have quite a few things to get back on track with.

Acquiring a used laptop so I can get back on track with the comic podcasts. Also with writing content for RKYV... only I haven't heard from Mr. Pare in forever. That is one of the things I will be looking into this month. Another being me looking into my presently missing subscription to Supergirl (That New 52 Smell).

So first thing first getting back on track with daily posting all over. Stay tuned.
