My 6 Favorite Things of 2023
Who could imagine that the end of another year has come. I turned 40 this year, and life is what it is. My job got a lot busier, my bank account got a lot smaller, and I’ve got a few different comic projects in the works! More on that later. For now, it’s time to celebrate my favorite pop culture media from the past year.
As always, I don’t listen to music, so I don’t have any favorite songs from the year. Mostly I’m here to talk about video games, movies, TV show and comics, my favorite hobbies! I’ve thrown in a couple of other entries to get up to six, because a man has a theme.
So join me after the jump for my favorite bits from pop culture in the past year. And feel free to share your own favorite things from the past year in the comments below!

Last week, a metric ton of new trailers come out for everything from indie movies to big action movies to TV shows to video games. How am I supposed to keep up with them all? By dumping them on all in a single post on a Tuesday. Go me!
First up is the new movie Bottoms, which looks pretty fun as a silly, potentially raunchy high school teen comedy.
I might for sure give this one a watch if it comes to a theater near me. Could be funny. Could be really bad. There’s only one way to find out. Bottoms comes to theaters on Aug. 25.
Next up, let’s check out the trailer for the second season of Good Omens!
I really enjoyed the book, I really enjoyed the first season, and I’ll be happy to watch a second season. I’m sure they’ll have a ton of fun with this one! I think it’s an entirely new story, since the book didn’t have a sequel. As long as it’s got Neil Gaiman’s seal of approval, I’ll be content.
Good Omens season two comes to Amazon Prime on July 28.
Thirdly, it’s the full trailer for the long-awaited Venture Bros. wrap-up movie, which has the silly title of Radiant is the Blood of the Baboon Heart.
I love the Venture Bros. as much as the next person. I even cosplayed as Henchman 21 at a couple of comic cons. Those pictures exist on the internet. Anyway, as much as I loved the show, I was somebody who got annoyed at how rarely new seasons came out. They were good seasons when they did…but they also rarely accomplished anything, paid off anything or were very memorable for the next five years of new content.
It was a shame when the show got cancelled, but…eh. I’ll gladly watch this movie. Hopefully they do pay off everything they put into this series. Or maybe there will just be more movies.
The Venture Bros.: Radiant is the Blood of the Baboon Heart will come to digital and DVD at the end of July.
Lastly, for now, we got a full game trailer for Moral Kombat 1.
I’ve played pretty much every Mortal Kombat game of the modern era. I’ll probably play this one at some point. Looks fine. No sign of Smoke, though, so perhaps I’ll have to wait for Mortal Kombat 2. I’m sure this one will be as fun as all the others.
Mortal Kombat 1 comes out on Sept. 19.
