• Big names to appear on Dio tribute album

    Word has it that a tribute album to the late metal god Ronnie James Dio will contain some big names. How big you may ask? How’s this for big? Rob Halford, Dave Grohl, Glenn Hughes, Alice Cooper, Chris Jericho, and Lemmy. Does it really get any bigger than that? A tribute worthy of the true…


  • Review of All Star Superman DVD

    Let me preface this by saying I was not a fan of the All-Star Superman series of comics. I personally thought that it highlighted everything that has been wrong with the Superman franchise in the last 70 years. With that in mind, I was not happy to hear that the latest release in the series…


  • Tim ‘Ripper’ Owens to record unreleased Dio material?

    According to an interview with Dio guitarist Craig Goldy some unreleased material developed by the late Ronnie James Dio may be recorded with former Judas Priest and Iced Earth vocalist Tim ‘Ripper’ Owens.

  • Trench’s Bad JuJu Pick for Super Bowl XLV

    It seems that my sports curse is back. After a few years of picking the Super Bowl correctly, it seems that my luck has run out. As you know I am a Steelers fan but I’ve wanted them to fail in the worst way this season. Actually I wanted Ben Roethlisberger, or however the hell…


  • Review of Superman/Shazam: The Return of Black Adam

    When I was a little kid I loved Superman. I watched the old black and white TV shows and all the cartoons. I wanted to be Superman so bad. Then one day while someone from my family was in the hospital I saw a comic book in the hospital gift shop. It was called Shazam…


  • Roethlisberger’s road to redemption?

    Link As for the off-field problems that nearly derailed his career before the season, Williams adds, “Winning cures a lot of things. A lot of sins are forgiven.” Not in my eyes. The only redemption that Doucheliesberger can give is if he left the Steelers. This isn’t the Cowboys or the Bengals we’re talking about.…


  • Revolver Mag cover pays tribute to fallen Metal icons

    On a recent cover of Revolver Magazine, they pay tribute to the two Metal icons that passed away last year and were my two biggest heroes in the world of Metal. I am of course speaking about Peter Steele of Type O Negative and the Master of Metal himself Ronnie James Dio. Other musicians that…


  • I renounce the Steelers…for now

    So I have this problem. I’ve been a fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers since I was 10-years-old. Granted back then the Steelers were the team in the NFL. Little kids, being what they are, want to root for winners so there were a lot of us that were Steeler fans. Little kids are the worst…


  • Batman: Brave and the Bold is pretty grim

    My favorite cartoon currently on TV is Batman: The Brave and The Bold. I love how it mixes the 50s and 60s style Batman with their modern counterpart. It was supposed to be more light-hearted fare for the kids but it has had its grim side lately. In recent weeks they’ve had the Doom Patrol…
