This year, your humble friend in the Fortress resolves to kvetch less about Dan DiDio and Joe Quesada (thereby cutting the number of our posts down by, oh, 75 percent), ignore Green Lantern comics altogether (oh yeah, we went there … ) and pay more attention to fresh-water fowl, muck-encrusted man-creatures and pickled cucumbers.
So, here’s a post that has nothing to do with Countdown, One More Day or Hal Jordan’s libido.
Ladies and gentleman, courtesy of Howard The Duck #22, we present our favorite anthropomorphic fowl teaming up with Man-Thing to defeat a sentient pickle.
Who knew pickles could feel fear?!?
At any rate, that was pretty painless as far as New Year’s resolutions go. Wonder how we’ll fill this blog for the remaining 363 days of 2008?
