This feels like a weird product placement but it’s not, I promise. I’m in no way beholden to this company, I just want everyone to feel so handsome all day errryday!
I recently interviewed the guys at Enzo Custom Clothiers in Manhattan and holyshitya’ll. They do custom suits for, like, real people. A suit, two shirts and three ties (all made to order) for less than...
I just finished "Batman: The Long Halloween"
simply because I’ve been meaning to catch up on what are considered great moments in modern graphic novel history. And I’ve been on a real Batman kick recently with the Arkham games and everything so I’ve been going through Dark Knight’s major stuff.
