Well I’ve met to post this for a while now but it’s pretty bloody obvious that this blog is on a hiatus now.
This blog has a history that was tied to a certain comic book store in Vancouver, Canada (You know, where the 2010 Winter Olympics were) called ELFSAR COLLECTION COMICS & TOYS. Sadly Elfsar had to close down in May so in many ways, it’s closing has also put the final nail into the coffin of this blog. If I had ANY thought of returning and sparking this sucker up, it’s all gone now. Elfsar was the spark that had me start REALLY bad reviews over on Happy Harbor Comics website. That went on for a while until I thought, why not just start my own blog doing the same thing and ranting about whatever else I wanted. So I did and BtS was born. It went through many looks & feel until finding the latest incarnation. Now don’t get me wrong, I do miss it at times but overall I think running this blog took a great deal out of me in ways I haven’t still realized. I managed this blog almost as much or more than working 8 hours a day and that got to be too much in general. That and I feel my appreciation for comic books lately has been at an all time low so I have little to talk about.
I know many friends I know wished I kept the blog up and running but never truly understood it was like feeding a forever hungry zombie… and I FUCKING HATE Zombies!
So for now the blog is again on a Hiatus. If you feel the fucked up strange need to listen to my rambles, you can catch me on Twitter here:

I’m not closing up shop as I like the digital footprint this leaves so feel free to browse and lick the carpet, you might find something you like. That said, I’m closing the comments now for the entire site and all older posts.

Are you ready for Sylar as Spock? A young punk J. T. Kirk? Nick Angel as Scotty and Ben Cross coming out from a rock to be a villain?
Well I am but at the same time I feel I need a great deal of salt to deal with how much they plan on changing EVERYTHING in the Star Trek world. Will it spin off new movies and shows? Hmm?
I know it has been a few days since I last posted but with the Canuck Thanksgiving, sports (Vancouver Canucks hockey & BC Lions Football) plus this thing called work getting in the way, I never had the time to get online recently. That and the fact that Telus decided to give me a weekend without ‘net access for Thanksgiving. So nice but I never asked for that and my addiction freaked out. I ended up spending most of the weekend trying to bring a dead router back to life, I feel like Doctor Frankenstein or at the very least Dr. Walter Bishop.
So check this out, new Star Trek movie photos galore! Seems that the movie is being pimped out on different websites for the various photos (in better resolution than I have here plus bigger), here yah go:

I do like the black shirt that “Kirk” is wearing in the shots. Great way to keep him hi-lighted in all the spots. I am so done on Sylar, too much of him on Heroes and now his Spock will likely be too much as well. Gah. I am liking the new Romulan look of Eric Bana as the big baddie Nero!
Oh man, the spill over from Comic-Con continues. Here are the additional character shots from the upcoming new J. J. Abrams Star Trek movie with Anton Yelchin as Chekov, Karl Urban as McCoy, John Cho as Sulu and Simon Pegg as Scotty!
