Xtinction Agenda

Cameron Hodge

Xtinction Agenda isn't for everyone. It's a book club and a movie club and a place for people to talk TV and comic books. But nothing too new. It's a rough place where tired old dads tackle pop culture artifacts of the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s (mostly). Not a lot of hand-holding as a consequence. These are not introductions to pop culture but discussions about it. As such, we expect the audience to have some degree of experience.

Basically then, if you're a hotdog and you're looking for a mustache ride, you came to the right place. Otherwise, enjoy your sock hops and your malt shakes. We wish you well.

Junji Ito - Gyo
Jointed legs scramble like metal spiders Through streets and lanes as pneumatic ocean flows, These monstrous belching farting dark riders Reek a methane miasma circus show. Their black asphalt roads were paved long ago.

Mark Millar and Bryan Hitch - The Ultimates #1-13
The weight of jagged towering broken lattice, of glass torn from sky, birthed a billowing grey man made petty and small.

Resident Evil: Apocalypse
This is an episode about Resident Evil: Apocalypse. As far as movies go, it was fine. For some strange reason, the internet thinks this is the best installment of the franchise. If you are one such person, please drop us a line at xtinctionagenda6@gmail.com. We would like to understand.

Scott Snyder and Nick Dragotta - Absolute Batman #1-6

Katsuhiro Ôtomo - Akira
Buncha do nothings, deadend bored at the bar, desperate to keep away the night, riding sleek, red single-rider beasts into the maw of the city, slipping between teeth and nearly swallowed by the belly of it all. Sometimes the future comes to us from places that we didn't expect.

Brian K Vaughan - Y: The Last Man #1-10
Man, the strait waistcoat that folds over struggling breast, weighs tightly. Heavy, coarse-haired, inescapable, old when history was young, he binds wrists and spreads legs. He is a charnel house. What will remain from his passing? "So, uh...How much do I owe you for the clean underpants?"

Kenji Tanigaki - The Furious
The peen of a hammer unsheathed crunches the unsuspecting sternum of child trafficker baddies. He climbs their bodies, bludgeoning bone. Somewhere in all this violence, innocence huddles, waiting. "Looks like a Chinese mute looking for his daughter."

Hayao Miyazaki - Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind
Red volcanic screams sought peace, blooming fire and sucking dust. To no avail. Peace instead inched its way into the world through a firm foot slid backwards into sand, through piteous burning whimpers, and through thin filaments of care. "My heart's pounding."

Alan Moore - Watchmen #12
O Seymour, Crank file keeper, Reach through those thin missives. O Seymour, Green shirt avatar, Grasp the leather-bound truth. O Seymour, You are A stomach Ready to burst. "You have two more pages to fill before you eat, thanks to that goddammed ass-kissing accord!"

Patrick Swayze - Dirty Dancing / Point Break
Whether on green, unbroken crests Or across the barreled boneyard, Love fetches and lifts. Keep your ear close to the face of the wave, Let its thunderous static surround you. "Two bricks coming up."

Peter Cullen - The Return of Optimus Prime Pt. 1-2
Faced with the threat of burning, crawling, infectious hatred, Of mothers clutching babies, popping thin skulls on cobblestone, Of last days in the third Cybertronian war, The second king quested and beguiled Ripped wisdom from the heart of his son, And in a sacrifice of souls proclaimed, "Now light our darkest hour." "- But Prime, I'm just a soldier. I'm not worthy. - Nor was I."

Bryan Fuller - Hannibal
He asks you to ask questions about yourself, All the while imagining a scalpel-sharp blade Severing your horizontal fissure, Soft pink cubes soon soaked in vinegar For ten minutes or more, Before washed, salted and spiced, Cooked and finally fried, A thin sliver of smile across his face. "You have to convince yourself the lion is not in the room. When it is, I assure you, you will know."

Eric Larsen - Savage Dragon
The pressure of sex Bends mirrored love Like stone on spandex; It shatters it into thin sharp fragments, And then mends it, fitting glass madly, Until time and choice collapse. "Time to win some hearts and minds!"

Matt Fraction and Jorge Jimenez - Batman #1-12
How cool is this comic? We didn't even talk about the costume re-design. The costume re-design was literally the least interesting thing about this comic. And that's not a slight. It's a cool re-design. A cool re-design in a cool comic. For cool people. Like you.

Alan Moore - Watchmen #11
Brain hemorrhaging cadaverine cephalopod stares, unblinking. Fearing crosshairs of world's grim end, it is released.

Steven Seagal - On Deadly Ground
Like grease on your beard, greed flavours the rich man's every bite. He sniffs and snorts and rummages in greed, the rich man. Crawling, he seeks just one more thing to swallow and shit. Better to burn such a creature and leave its bones for the dogs. "Is this the one who's got you all concerned about the dirty snow? Jesus, Forrest! You and me, we bought hookers better than this for five bucks in Bangkok!"

Geoff Johns - Batman: Earth One Vol. 1
Within the predator, prey, survivor types fallen into the trash-strewn streets, guilt blossoms, a black flower with leather petals, seeding some simulacrum of restored hope and the promise of brutal revenge.

Matt Fraction and David Aja - Hawkeye #1-11
Bro is just like us, bro. Sure he's an Avenger, and an adventurer and a ladies man, but--bro--underneath all of that, bro is actually a Zen slacker screw up. So it's okay for bro to like him. I mean, look at bro's relationship with his sidekick. That's a good dude, bro. The creators definitely aren't engaging in a high-end art rock Gen X nostalgia white wash of a shitty character, bro! "Hey, my laserdiscs!"
