PRESS RELEASE: LUCKY CREATURE SUBSCRIPTIONS!

Lucky Creature announces 1 year Subscription for 2007 releases.
Membership Includes every release that comes out between January 2007-Dec 31st 2007. A great and unique way to 'subscribe' to a label. Become a part of a team, don't worry about keeping up with our releases. When they drop, we will ship them to you.. And you'll save. Just last year with this deal you would have saved seven dollars on our releases. Includes any official Lucky Creature release released during 2007, free stickers as well as copies of any hisworld herworld issues printed in 2007. NOT INCLUDED are items sold through cafe press.
Join Up! available until dec 31st 2006 for Twenty Dollars.

NOTE: So we always want to do things different than most 'labels' and this is just another way. I'm not sure if anyone has ever offered a subscription to a label before, maybe they have, but either way I'm sure were in the minority. Just another crazy creature masterplan. Speaking of crazy we also have a insane lifetime sub available, but that's only for you super rich kids out there.
Both subs can be found off our main page or by clicking Here
What do you guys think about this?

Another Sevenfold Records turn up at twoifbysea.

Wow. Our very first record we put out. this to our recollection has been out of print for years. Two if by Sea one of our fine distributors has turned up some copies. so if you want this and don't want to hunt ebay for it go there.
awesome to see copies back on the net.

They also have all our current releases so if for some reason you don't want to shop with us, by all means go there. :>
Friday announcement on a neat package for 2007 pending.

Loveless # 11, Civil War Frontline # 6

Loveless # 11, add new plot points, new assasins, and more mystery than you can shoot with a six shooter, Keep em coming.
Civil War Fontline # 6. exactly what is the point of the sleeper cell story. it's kinda pointless so far. Really like the main story and Speedball in the accused is still getty gritty.
Overall worth the price of admission.
What are you reading?

We hope to have a pretty cool lucky creature deal to announce this weekend.

Just watched the White Countess. Pretty good. Effort was made to make it historically accurate. And since Asian History , especially early 20th century has always been my study, I enjoyed it even more.
Now Playing (again) Alien Hominid Gamecube
Now Reading, American Born Chinese (at work)
Now listening, Black Hawk Down soundtrack,
Now eating, Hummus.

Empire! Empire! (I was a lonely estate)

Hey I just found out about this band Empire! Empire! (I was a lonely etsate)
It's Keith from Sea Defeats Sparrow (who are on our first comp latest project. And it just fills me with mineral and early emo yummies. Like it very much and will keep a close eye on this band.

the Illusionist. D-

Wow. this movie sucks. Neil Burger directs some pretty good actors in Edward Norton and Paul Giammiti and makes a movie that is so trite, so full of cinema faux pas that I just can't find whats redeeming about this film. The story can be figured out way before the climax, the filming is ugly, janky and dark, and the whole twenty minute introduction feels like an afterthought and not really essential. Certain photoshop elements are used to the point of distraction like the glow on the memories. God, the more i think about this film the more I hate it. I'm sorry, this is just bad cinema. It's a shame really, I could use a good magic movie. Let's hope Christopher Nolan's Prestige delivers because this sure as heck didn't.

300, wow. just wow.

O.k. geek juices in overdrive right now. For the longest time Frank Miller didn't want his stories filmed. Sure the ones he didnt own got turned into movies anyway(batman, daredevil.) Then came Robert Rodriguez who convinced him to make Sin City with him. And Miller warmed up a little to Hollywood. Now Aint it Cool News has posted the trailer for the upcoming 300 movie based on his graphic novel of the same name. The trailer is here
This looks like it will put the rest the bad memories of Alexander, kingdom of heaven, and Troy, and finally get us back to those Trojan epics we've based all our modern storytelling on. hotness.

COMICS!

Big week for me and funny books. All A plusses here.
Astonishing X-Men # 17 is typical of this storyline so far. You spend most of your time wondering what's in the characthers head and what's actually happening. And I'm not sure exactly how Whedon is going to wrap it up, but pretty nice and still the only X-book worth reading.

Civil War # 4. Wow. Steve Mcniven's art is prefect, and how after this issue could anyone really be on Tony and Reed's side. this is some serious stuff. Man, Iron Man is so close to be the most hated 'hero' in the Marvel U.

And Moon Knight # 5. not quite as intense as before but heck a David Finch Moon Knight is just something so nice.

quick tag, your it.

The Disease /NOT Vinyl is out now!

Yeah! Preorders are shipping today! And both bands will have copies starting early next week so go see them rock the house and buy a 7" from them. What is 3$ anyway? It will make them smile and me too. Of course if your like me and live too far to see them or just can't wait to get it, order it from me. Awesome!

witness gaming history

tommorow morning in nyc nintendo holds a press conference. it's really unique that gamers are so ready for this, and the unsuspecting mass public is kind of clueless right now. come this christmas it seems they won't be able to ignore it. It so reminds me of the 8-bit days, when there was this newness to video games. and there was this upbeat attitude about the whole experience.

It's so funny as well that thousands( maybe millions by some reports) of fanboys(myself included) just spent the past hour or so hitting refresh on our computers reading a supposed live blog from the Japanese press event. The event actually starts in a few hours. Amazing in this technological day and age, we can't figure out the difference in time zone. we all got pawned, and yeah i hate that word, but we did. see you tommorow or maybe tonight if we now have our timeline straight.

the proposition

Well, who knew that Nick Cave could write movies? This is a western, set in Australia, that is as good as any western of the past twenty years. Tightly paced with plenty of wide angle shots and great acting by Guy Pearce, Ray Winstone and John Hurt.
Very gorey violence, so go prepared for that. It's funny this is a limited theatrical release. It definetly is more of a bigscreen movie than say Beerfest. but oh well America pays for what plays.

fun.

O.k. fun times, no sleep. Friday we drove to grinell to see rainer maria. they still have so much energy. love them. really do. also had a pretty good chinese buffet there in little ole grinell.

slept three hours got up went to chicago for the creation event. 1st let me say im not a big fan of the way creation does cons. they only have one main room for programming, and a dealers room and the rest of the day revolves around autographs. if your like me and could care less about someones handwriting, then it leads to some overpriced boredom. I enjoyed the thirty minites each that Shatner and nimoy spoke though. They are truly class acts and really quite funny together. I'm glad I got to see them and here good news about Shatner meeting with JJ Abrams but not thrilled with Creation. I guess i just prefer the more local, (i.e. not for profit cons). Off to see The Proposition.

Full Weekend ahead. west, then east.

Tonight I'm driving out to Grinell, Ia to catch Rainer Maria and Driver of the Year, then its straight home and to bed for me as I rise to go to Chicago to see Mr. Shatner and Mr. Nimoy. What a geek moment.
Sunday back to work and then to see Nick Cave's movie The Proposition starring an always intense Guy Pierce.

I'm really digging Fullmetal Alchemist. didn't think I would but man that show is deep. I'm on episode 8. Maybe the best storytelling I've seen in the format in quite some time.
Also not so deep the new Dr. Who is actually pretty fun.
Playing lots of Super Monkey Ball ds. Some beyond good and evil on the ole cube.
Reading Kwaidan by Jung and Jee-Un.
Really really spending too much time on the Wii message boards.

haha ps3 worldwide launch delayed

u.s. and japan only get 500,000 at launch. hahaha. it's so funny. Sony what in the world is going on over in your tokyo offices?
There are some hilarious photoshop posters over on thisiswaiting.com
My favorite has got to be the dear sony Wii wish you a merry X-mas. Wii60 looks more and more like the way to go. God I'm just trying to comprehend how a multibillion dollar company like Sony can run a business so poorly this past year. Really what is happening? Stocks will fall, heads will roll, and Nintendo and Microsoft will laugh all the way to the bank.

The Disease /NOT Vinyl arrives!

Hey eveyone that self potrait shows two things. One a beautiful virgin blue vinyl with the disease on one side and Network of Terror on the other. Still waiting on the sleeves which should be here within two weeks. then the records will be heading out to the bands and to any of you who order them. We've posted preorders which are four dollars. 3 for the record and 1 for shipping. The other thing it shows in an awesome Peas Out shirt which we have for sale at cafe press. As you can tell it's very bright so you can't wear it to that goth show your going to. So yeah go order your split. It's freaking blue vinyl man!


also no comics today but lookee here canada. OMEGA FLIGHT! is that captain america? In Canada?

Bittersweetness and Light blog.
