Comic Review: Space-Time Condominium Season One

Space-Time Condominium Season One is a collection of Dave Dwonch's webcomic published by Action Lab Entertainment. Basically, the story is about a reality show with the contestants being the same person but from parallel worlds tossed together on condo outside of the space time continuum. The Gatekeeper is a scientist that brings them all together. The humor is a mixed bag since there is a "normal" Griffin from 1985, Griffin the uptight computer programmer, Griffin the white trash alcoholic, Griffin the flamboyant aerobics instructor and Griffin from a world where white people think they are black. My favorite part is when the tough female version named Griffine is introduced to the rest of the contestants. Overall, I give Space-Time Condominium Season One a solid C since most of the jokes fall flat for me and Griffene is just not enough to keep me interested and the cow version of Griffin was really lame.

T-Shirt Thursday: Green Lantern Distressed Logo T-Shirt

I received a Green Lantern distressed logo t-shirt for Christmas this year. The gifter left the original price tag on that showed the price for $9.98 and the sale price tag of $7.00 (nice deal there). The round tag reads "This garment is unique, no two are alike."

Thor PEZ Candy Dispenser

I received a Thor PEZ candy dispenser for Christmas this year. He has a stern look, long hair and wings attached to his helmet. His body is black and he does have feet. What is really amazing is that the package is the bubble on card version instead of the bagged version. Unfortunately, the top of the card has been bent a little but that is okay since it gives it a battle scar.

The back of the card actually has the words "Gluten Free" along with instructions on how to fill the dispenser, nutrition facts and ingredients.

The picture of the loose Thor PEZ dispenser is not mine since I have yet to take him out of the package. I am tempted to rip him open so I can eat the Grape, Raspberry and Raspberry-Lemon candy. On second thought, maybe not for I have never tried that third flavor and it sounds a little scary.
