Bits and pieces. This and that. You know.
Hexed Weekend

- Saturday, June 19th, 2010 at 5:34 PM EST
"I can't make up my mind," I admitted to my wife. "I mean, on the one hand, there's the Megan Fox Rule. On the other, well... it's Jonah Hex. I love Jonah Hex, it's been one of my favorite comics for decades."
Friday in the YA Library

Full disclosure: this isn't really about comics. But it brushes up against them, and also animated cartoons, in a couple of places.
Friday in the Bank Vault
- by Greg Hatcher
- Friday, June 4th, 2010 at 3:38 PM EST
Here's a question I've heard many, many times over my forty-plus years of reading comics. The first time was probably when I was about eleven. The most recent was last week. I bet a lot of you have heard it too.
"What's the most valuable comic book you own?"

Friday In The Old Neighborhood

The Friday We Messed Around With Jim
- by Greg Hatcher
- Friday, May 7th, 2010 at 11:49 AM EST
This was a real conversation. It's been about ten years since it happened, so my memory might not be accurate in every detail, but I will vouch for most of it.
Friday at the Finish Line

Okay, so here is where I admit to being stupid. Or maybe it's just naive.
Saturday's Bargain Hunt
- by Greg Hatcher
- Saturday, April 24th, 2010 at 3:39 PM EST
Our friend Carla called last week to remind us about the giant library sale at Magnusson Park. You may remember me mentioning this last year -- the Friends of the Seattle Library fill a gigantic old hangar out at Sand Point with aisles and aisles of books and the sale goes on all weekend. It's [...]
A Friday Plea
- by Greg Hatcher
- Friday, April 16th, 2010 at 8:02 PM EST
We're having kind of a rough day here today. I won't bore you with details... work stuff, money stuff. It's been a long week. So, bottom line, the column I was working on isn't going up here tonight.
