About Alpha-Girl

Lisa Fary's earliest influences are Princess Leia, Rainbow Bright, Astronaut Barbie, and her 6th grade teacher, Ms. Palmer. She's angry that it's 2011 and she still doesn't have a hovercraft, but will accept a jetpack as consolation. That jetpack had better be pink with a rhinestone monogram.

Lost: Tricia Tanaka is Dead

Who knew a decomposing head was comedy gold? I was feeling so poopy today that I didn’t even want to watch Lost because it’s been so pitch black and miserable this season. It’s had some good episodes, but the overall tone has been dreary, which is lousy for poopy people who need some pepping up. [...]

Heroes: Everything Changes

Heroes made me believe in flashbacks again. Then it made me cry. Tonight’s episode gave us everything we ever wanted to know about H.R.G., with The Younger Invisible Man thrown in the mix. And I have to say, without his homeless pigeon man scruff, The Invisible Man is pretty good looking. There’s just something about [...]

Battlestar Galactica: Dirty Hands

There’s an argument online that Laura Roslin is a Cylon. Typical. We finally get an effective female president, and she may not even be human. The reasons are based on a number of events that have taken place throughout the series. I hate to say it, but there may be something to this idea. Related [...]

I’m drawn to bright colors and shiny things; the booth at the Phoenix Comicon featuring Blazin’ Brandy had both. Blazin’ Brandy is a comic series co-created by writer Lesley Kainsel and artist Stephanie Lesniak, featuring a 16th century British runaway who winds up shipwrecked on an island full of hungry monsters. And these monsters are [...]

I’ve Got Your Comics Event Right Here!!!!

Is Marvel run by monkeys? Marvel clearly has no respect for the people who buy their comics. Either that, or Marvel is being run by one eyed monkeys with inner ear problems. For my own sanity, I have to believe that monkeys are responsible for Civil War #7, because Marvel wouldn’t disrespect me like that [...]

The Librarian: Return to King Solomon’s Mines

If you’re ten years old, and it’s the 1980s, The Librarian: Return to King Solomon’s Mines is an awesome movie. If its 2007, it might be awesome if you’re a bushman or a pygmy and have never seen a television before. Related Stuff:

The Podcast Workout Review #1: Lipstick Aliens

The guy next to me at the gym smelled like poop, which not only gross, it distracted me from the Lipstick Aliens podcast. We’ve been wanting to do podcast reviews at Pink Raygun, but between TV and movie commitments, writing commitments and the need to shower, we couldn’t find the time to listen to a [...]

Lost: Stranger in a Strange Land

Is Kate retarded? She and Sawyer were lucky to get away alive, and as soon as they’re off Others Island, she starts whining, “We have to go back! We have to get Jack!” What are they going to do? Storm Others Island and force them to cooperate by the power of their combined body odor? [...]

Pink Raygun Interview #9: Travis Hanson

I said “hi” to Travis Hanson about twenty times at the Phoenix Comicon. Hanson’s booth was in a high traffic area: by the main walkway, next to Mike Mignola’s table, and right across from the concession stand. Despite the high traffic and craziness, Hanson didn’t seem to lose energy. Hanson operates Bean Leaf Press, which [...]

“Ash Wednesday? You mean I got me my own holiday? Groovy.”

I’m a heathen pig dog, so I had no idea that the girl with the dirty forehead in my college cafeteria had come from Mass. “You’ve got something on your forehead,” I whispered across the table. Then I handed her my compact mirror so she could take care of it. I thought I was being [...]
