Geoff, this is a great new feature. I like it!
As to Daredevil reboot, I'd totally watch it if it promises to be dark. The fluffy, happy Benifer version (although the seeing her in the rain thing was incredibly cheesy but romantic for us girls) is just horrible. I read somewhere, might have been in the LA Times even, that Jason Statham is interested in the role. That would be fun...but then again, that boy can't really do drama...

They take away the motorcycle column, and give us this fanboy trash. There is nothing here that can't be gleaned from numerous sites around the web, sites that do it a hell of a lot better. But, let's cancel the motorcycle column in a newspaper that has one of the largest, if not THE largest motorcycle to people ratio in the country. Makes perfect sense.

Oakmonster, thanks for note. Yep, you read about that Statham\Daredevil tidbit right here at Hero Complex...
And to Jack: I was a fan of Throttle Jockey, too, and I know Susan Carpenter quite well. I think she'd be the first to tell you that this little blog here on the internet has nothing to do with the fate of a Sunday column in the print edition. And, just so you know, there's plenty of stuff here you CAN'T find anywhere else, like the exclusive interview on Friday with Harrison Ford. But it doesn't sound like your cup of tea...have you checked out our auto blog?
