I've also got a big hard-on for ancient history and 1930's adventure stories, hell, the 1930's-40's in general. Airplanes make me giddy, especially when you're racing them. Basically, the faster something is the better it is. Except for sex. That's a situational kind of thing.
Music
I'm highly influenced by the works of:
30 Seconds to Mars Thirty Seconds to Mars A Beautiful Lie
Coheed and Cambria The Second Stage Turbine Blade In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3 Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV
Nine Inch Nails The Fragile Still With Teeth
Akira Yamaoka Silent Hill Original Soundtracks
I listen to everything except country. Y'all can keep that ol' bullshit.
Movies
Favorite movie ever: INDIANA JONES AND THE TEMPLE OF DOOM.
Also: Silent Hill, The Ring, Below, The Chronicles of Riddick, Pitch Black, Amelie, Blade Runner, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, Dark City, The Matrix Trilogy, Sin City, Constantine, Donnie Darko, Equilibrium, Batman Begins, Unbreakable, Aliens, Alien Resurrection, Terminator 2: Judgement Day, Session 9, King Kong, Pirates of the Carribean, House of Voices, Serenity, X2, Minority Report, Ringu, The Exorcist, Way of the Gun
Television
Best show of all time: THE VENTURE BROTHERS.
Good stuff to watch: South Park, Family Guy, The X-Files, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Robot Chicken, Rob and Big, and Teen Titans. I generally don't watch reality TV, but Project Runway is so deliciously trashy and over the top that I can't help myself. Besides, it's fabulous.
Books
Stephen King: Bag of Bones, Desperation, The Shining, Thinner, Pet Sematary.
Dean Koontz: Phantoms
William Gibson: Neuromancer, Pattern Recognition
Tolkien: A hack. I dare you to argue.
Comics: anything by Steve Niles(30 Days of Night), Warren Ellis(Ultimate Fantastic Four, The Authority, Fell) Mike Mignola(Hellboy) and my personal comic book messiah, Grant Morrison(New X-Men, Justice League America, All-Star Superman, Seven Soldiers, The Filth). Brian Michael Bendis' run on Daredevil is nothing short of genius, but right now he's fucking up.
Heroes
Indiana Jones, Hal Jordan, Clark Kent and Steve Rogers.
I'm proficient in comic script format, and have worked on a number of fan-based comics. I'm always looking for new ventures to test my skills and wish to break into professional comic work.

*gasp*... he's my child!.. or... practically... he's for real and isn't he the most amazing ball of fluff you've ever seen? First road trip to his grandparents house tomorrow (where I'll have to recover getting wisdom teeth out!)...aren't you in love with him yet? You should get your kids one!
Forgot to tell you about this one. Heard about it when Wil Wheaton was chatting with Ed Brubaker at Ed's booth. Apprently Wil's a "Nerd Messiah". Saw this, laughed my ass off. Enjoy.
Chek out his "originals" section. Fun stuff. BTW, just though of it, you want some "equinox" BCs for ECC? Just thought you being a high-faluting writer and all...
Yeah, Friend or Foe kinda looked weird to me, but upon seeing that, I may just have to give it a try. Oh, did you hear about Dumbledore? I wanted to punch J.K. Rowling in the face...
