No Rest for the Weary, January 2010 Edition
As I’ve noted, I got sick this month, (did I mention twice? Just checking.), so it has put a pause in my latest GUARDZ! comic. I have a new one queued up, which will be completed in February. In the meantime, I have been working on this piece, which was inspired by the Wipeout games that are on the Playstation consoles. This one should also be done soon, but here it is, as a work in progress. Enjoy!

Welcome to 2010: Better Late Than Never (sort-of)
I’ve been meaning to start this year with a blog that listed everything that I was looking forward to for 2010. Then an interesting thing happened: I got sick, twice, and back-to-back. I know that my illness isn’t the same one, carried over an extended period of time, because 1) I got better, and 2) the symptoms changed immediately after I recovered from my first illness. I’m feeling slightly better, but I’m not trying to push myself.
It’s still January, so I still have time to get this list out. So, here it goes, and in no particular order. I’m wondering if my opinions will change at all when the clock strikes midnight on 2011, but I think this will be a fun little exercise on expectation and disappointment.
(side note: games such as Final Fantasy XIII and Bioshock 2 did not make this list simply because I don’t have enough information on them, at least not enough to get excited about).
1. Mass Effect 2 (videogame, Xbox 360)
2. Heavy Rain (videogame, PS3)
3. God of War 3 (videogame, PS3)
4. Gran Turismo 5 (videogame, PS3, tentative)
5. Siege (Marvel Comics event)
6. The A-Team (movie, June)
7. Clash Of the Titans (movie, tentative)
8. Tron: Legacy (movie, winter)
9. Iron Man 2 (movie, winter)
10. Alan Wake (videogame, Xbox 360)
11. Lost (TV, final season)
12. Mod Nation Racers (videogame, PS3)
