A brilliant scientist – his best friend – the woman he loves – and her fiery-tempered kid brother! Together, they braved the unknown terrors of the inter-webs, and were changed by sarcastic rays into something more than merely human! Aron! Paul! Bitch Wayne! Rim! Now they are Funnybooks with Aron and Paulie (and Their Amazing […]
Over the last week and a half or so I have been listening to quite a few “professional” audiobooks. In particular I have been listening to the Dresden Files series, but I have quite a few audiobooks in my library. I have also been listening to the Audio version of Tracy Hickman’s serial fiction EvenTide. […]
At GenCon this year I was fortunate to room with Chris Perrin and to get a chance to play in a session of his game: Mecha. Mecha is a rules-light RPG designed to simulate giant robot anime shows. It is not a mech combat game like Battletech or Iron Tyrants, it is an RPG with […]
I am as tickled as I can be. The media property that got me into SCI-FI was not Star Trek, nor was it Star Wars. No, my gateway to SF was none other than the Six Million Dollar Man. To this day when I hear series producer Harve Bennett’s narrative from the opening sequence – […]

Most times, the conversations are constrained so that we can fit everything into an hour or so, but here at Funnybooks After Hours (now in its second season after a short hiatus),the discussion continues to topics not covered, greater questions of events […]

Yeah…we know. We talk about Ron Marz and Top Cow Comics all the time. You’re thinking we should just change the name of the show to Top Cow Books With Aron and Paulie. But, when you get a chance to talk to someone as interesting as Marz, and about comics as good as Velocity, Angelus, […]
Watching the news this weekend, I was disturbed to learn that a twelve year-old girl and her thirteen year-old boyfriend gunned down her mother and step-father. The girl had apparently run away from home last month and returned, guns-a-blazing. Her mother was dead on the scene. Her step-father, who slipped into a coma shortly after […]
It’s a grumpy group we’ve assembled this week. If we’re not grousing about event books we’re arguing the merits of hot, steamy girl-on-girl lovin’ in the pages of our favorite books. Join Aron, Paul, Wayne and Ragey-Red Tim (Rim) for a rousing review of the week’s comics. Jonathan’s on notice So is Tim Superman: The […]
