[XILED] � Blog Archive � Yahoo: "I’ve lately been kinda worried about all the data I have stored in various yahoo services (especially when I heard the M$ rumors). What do you think will happen when it gets swallowed up by M$ or some other giant? Yahoo has been pretty good about allowing the vision behind the companies it has acquired to continue. I’m uncertain if another company would have the same management philosophy, especially if that company happened to be Google or M$."

I’d say the title sums it up nicely. Unfortunately I was unable to back up a copy of my custom theme for the move so looks like I’ll have a piss-ugly blog for a few days. Id really like some input from readers about good themes. ...

R.I.P. Robert Jordan

2007-09-17T08:33:00.000-05:00

As I reported on my main blog R.I.P. Robert Jordan

R.I.P. Robert Jordan

CenemaBlend reports:

Sad news from the world of fantasy literature. Robert Jordan, known best as the author of the “Wheel of Time” series of books, died on the afternoon of Sunday September 16th after more than a year battling cardiac amyloidosis. The news comes from a message left on the author’s blog.

The site says, “”It is with great sadness that I tell you that the Dragon is gone. RJ left us today at 2:45 PM. He fought a valiant fight against this most horrid disease. In the end, he left peacefully and in no pain.”

This is no doubt sad news for his family and friends but also for millions of fans around the world. At this time the final book in his Wheel of Time series remains unfinished. I myself haven’t read the series but am deeply saddened by this genre (my favorite) losing such a prolific writer. The site is currently under a very heavy load, no doubt from fans bombarding the site with questions about whether the series will be completed.

One possible piece of good news for those worried about the fate of the story from wotmania:

Beyond expressions of sadness at Jordan’s passing, I have no doubt the most frequent question/concern will be, “What happens to WoT?”

I talked with Jason about this. He said that Jordan has been dictating outlines and plot lines and everything else related to the final book. He used the phrase “army of writers” to talk about the people that were converting those tapes into written form.

It would appear that the final book will still be published, I’m sure details regarding that will work themselves out. So please be patient (as challenging as that might be), and for now let’s focus on Jordan’s life, writing, and the joy he brought to us.

There is no way of knowing now and I personally could care less. I’m just thankful he was able to share what he could with us while he was alive. There is no doubt that his books have influenced a platoon of future writers and given countless hours of entertainment to his millions of fans. R.I.P. Robert Jordan and thank you for all your work.

Publisher: Marvel

Ah the "Ultimate" universe, meh. Yet another fine example of why I chose to call this blog 616. AS usual with an ultimate title the art is fantastic and the story is just a half-assed rehash of pieces of 616 stories set in the universe of 90210. The only thing missing is The Peach Pit.
I wouldn't even have read this if not to rip it apart in this review. I know that there are alot of people who really dig the ultimate titles and that it has no bearing on 616 so it shouldn't irritate me but still, it does. I'll get my multiverse fix from What If.
In short, if you like this title buy it. If you have never read an ultimate title and are looking for a good read, give t a shot. If you're like me however and enjoy well developed characters and storylines that are so long that you lose track of where they start (and hate 90210) skip this.

Update:

I've decided to use this space after all and for its original purpose even. :D
I'm a pretty big reader of comics and comic blogs so I'll post here if I spot something interesting. Until then, be sure to check out the aggregation of my other blog I have here(if your interested in xml and/or microformats that is).
