Stepping up

January 27, 2017July 14, 2018 / scherem / Leave a comment

I have a lot of competing thoughts about todays marches.  I thought about saying nothing, and keeping my thoughts to myself out of fear they may be misconstrued. Taken wrong. Then I realized the biggest part of the problem is that there are people like me who choose silence more than they should. I was … Continue reading Stepping up

In the office

May 12, 2014July 14, 2018 / scherem / Leave a comment

It’s quiet in the office right now. Geese are making their sounds, the vinegar is running through the coffee pot. It’s serene, beautiful, and somewhat melancholy. I worry about turning music on, doing anything to disrupt the calm I’m feeling in here. Soon the day will fully commence with the noise that the start of … Continue reading In the office

Manifesto of Me: Thirties Edition

February 2, 2014July 15, 2018 / scherem / Leave a comment

In High School I wrote a piece for a creative writing class called 'I Am Me'. In it I outlined values I had and things that I believed about myself. It's fun to re-read this document every now and then and see how much I have and haven't changed ('I will not wear khakis'). When … Continue reading Manifesto of Me: Thirties Edition

THIS IS A FIRST DRAFT OF MY THOUGHTS (AND IN A VERY THOUGHTS TO PAPER WITH LITTLE EDITING) ABOUT SCIENCE LITERACY. I WILL REVISE AND EDIT THIS AS I FIND TIME TO FURTHER THINK ABOUT THE TOPIC. Some background What is science literacy? This is a question I've asked myself and others a lot in … Continue reading What is science literacy?

A dark start

October 11, 2011July 14, 2018 / scherem / Leave a comment

Every now and then you read a book, and when your done you either read it again, or decide you can’t read any more comics for the day, because the bar has been set so high. To me, Justice League Dark is one of these books. I haven’t read many of the new DCU books … Continue reading A dark start

A new Catwoman for a new DCU

September 25, 2011July 14, 2018 / scherem / Leave a comment

DC described this series as “Meet Catwoman. She’s addicted to the night. Addicted to shiny objects. Addicted to Batman. Most of all, Catwoman is addicted to danger. She can’t help herself, and the truth is – she doesn’t want to. She’s good at being bad, and very bad at being good.” And the truth is … Continue reading A new Catwoman for a new DCU

A new grift

September 24, 2011July 14, 2018 / scherem / Leave a comment

I wanted to like this book. The story starts off with Cole “Grifter” Cash on an airplane, and he’s not all there—he’s hearing voices and someone is chasing him. By the end of the issue, Grifter still isn’t sure what exactly has happened to him, and neither is the reader. The only sure things to … Continue reading A new grift

Men of Wars fights a new war

September 10, 2011July 14, 2018 / scherem / Leave a comment

DC had a strong history with war books. Starting in the late 1950s through to the end of the 1980s, DC always had at least one book based on WWII on the stands. These books debut and focused on characters such as the Haunted Tank, the Unknown Soldier and Enemy Ace, and most importantly perhaps … Continue reading Men of Wars fights a new war

The league that might

September 4, 2011July 14, 2018 / scherem / Leave a comment

When the reboot was announced I was excited. As each new creative team, title and cover was teased out over the month of June I grew more and more impressed and anxious for the titles to come. I wanted my Animal Man now. I wanted my Snyder Swamp Thing now. I wanted my Batwoman five … Continue reading The league that might

The demise of WebOS

August 19, 2011July 14, 2018 / scherem / Leave a comment

I don't have much to say about the demise of HP Touchpad/webOS-- I haven't used it much, or played with it unless there was a demo unit set up in at a store. What I did see was interesting, and likely more of a victim of coming to market when they are a glut of … Continue reading The demise of WebOS
