Don't Blink - again!

As Doctor Who prepares to send off David Tennant and welcome Matt Smith, incoming showrunner Steven Moffat recently let slip that next year will see the return of the Weeping Angels, who featured in the instant-classic episode from Season 3, "Blink." Need a reminder of why you should beware these stone-faced baddies? Courtesy of Blogtor Who, here's a little tutorial from Torchwood's Capt. Jack Harkness:

A Birthday Review From Amber The Stylist!

HOUR 42 would like to join the geek world today in wishing The Man himself, Stan Lee, a happy 87th birthday!

For those of you who just know Smilin' Stan from his random cameos in Marvel Entertainment's films, rest assured, that's just the tip of the tip of the iceberg. As ComicVine explains:

If you ever wondered what makes Stan Lee such an influential figure in the industry, then you need only look to the massive catalog of Marvel characters he is credited for creating. Not only did Lee create a great number of incredibly entertaining characters, but he essentially changed the face of the entire industry. In the introduction to "Marvel: Five Fabulous Decades of the World's Greatest Comics," Stan Lee sums up the influence he has had on comic book characters rather distinctly. 

And among the characters Mr. Lee helped bring to the world were the members of Marvel's First Family, The Fantastic Four. So there's no better time to bring you Amber The Stylist's review of Fantastic Four #574!

AMBER'S REVIEW: Captain America Reborn #5

Thanks to some scheduling tricks, most Marvel readers already know the fate of the original Captain America - you know, Steve Rogers - even before his re-introductory mini-series, Captain America Reborn, has even finished. But was Reborn's penultimate chapter any good despite that? Here's Amber the Stylist to let us know!
