Fantastic Femmes--Sanaa Lathan

Considering she started her career with a featured role in Blade and has done top-notch work in several genre flicks and TV shows since, it's unforgivable that I haven't taken a long...lingering...look at the lovely Sanaa McCoy Lathan before now.
The multi-talented Sanna is equally at home on the Broadway stage (a Tony Award-nominated performance in a revival of Raisin in the Sun), an animation voice-recording studio, or doing a lot of her own stunts on camera.

Genre credits include...

Contagion (Mrs Brooks)

Cleveland Show (Donna Tubbs Brown)

Blade (Vanessa Brooks)

Out of Time (Ann Merai Harrison)

Alien vs Predator (Alexa Woods)

Golden Blaze (Monica)

Reading Room: RACE FOR THE MOON "Asylum"

A Twilight Zone-style story from Race for the Moon #1, illustrated by Bob Powell!

Between the whole budget brohaha in Washington and listening to the idiots at the Iowa State Fair ("Corporations are people!"--Mitt Romney), perhaps we should rename our planet from "Earth" to "Asylum"!

The Human Torch..."I got better"

After all the sad farewells and retrospectives The Human Torch will apparently be brought back from the dead in time for Fantastic Four #600 in November, less than a year after his demise!
Well, it's not like he was Bucky or...wait...Bucky's alive!
Well, it's not like he was Baron Zemo...wait...he's still dead, but he gets resurrected every once and awhile...

Oddly, there's LOADS of Voyage stuff on YouTube, but most of it is not embeddable!
Irritating!
