Toby Mac is by far one of the most influential Christian artist in the industry today and with his latest offering he has once again shown the world why that is.
The NC Take: It’s hard to be fresh and original in music, it seems to be even harder in Christian music to do so, yet Toby Mac has been revamping his jams and keeping it fresh with each new album he has released since his solo debut. Very Cool for someone looking for some sweet jams with great beats and a positive message that deviates from the sex and violence that fills todays hip hop scene. And of course for us Mac fans, Necessary.
So I was over at ComicVine today and I noticed a story about Lauren Shuler Donner talking about what X-Men films she would like to see coming down the road. Among the films mentioned she talked about the possibility of a New Mutants film. Which of course being a big fan of that books first run, and of the current one, made me pretty excited. Read more »

Chad Strohl gives us another sneak peak at his new book Did somebody call for a hero? Which will be available at Mid Ohio Comic Con this year. I got up with Chad recently, and asked him if he were to just sum up what he story was all about and here’s what he had to say….
“Hero Montgomery parachutes behind enemy lines to rescue his girlfriend, Penny Prentiss, from the clutches of a terrorist cell, while he reminisces about his childhood where he met the friends, bully, and mysterious man in black that would shape his life and destiny for years to come.” The book is an homage to 1930′s radio serials, pulp fiction magazines, and 1980′s action movies.”
I’m pretty picky about what I like to read, but let me just say Chad was nice enough to hook me up with a copy to read and if this sounds like it’s up your ally then you’re in for a fun read. Chad is also the artist behind the very funny strip at Comic Related called New Comic Day.
