Mike’s comics on the blogroll

If you read this blog for any length of time you know I am a big fan of Doctor Who in general and the Big Finish Audio’s in particular.

I’ve also mentioned Mike’s Comics out of Worcester Mass as a great place to get your Doctor Who audios. They sell strictly via mail order (otherwise I’d drive down there and likely be spending MUCH too much on the audio’s I’m missing).

However I only just discovered they have a blog on Live Journal a twitter feed and a presence on Facebook and MySpace.

So to make things easier I’m just going to include all of those in the Doctor Who section of my blogroll, so when you read my next review of a doctor who audio you can be a click away from the best place in the US (including Amazon) to buy it.

My review of #122 in the Big Finish Doctor Who series The Angel of Scutari is available at Amazon.com here.

You are going to wait for a while to see how this cliffhanger ends since the next 7th doctor adventures are going to feature Kline from the adventure Colditz.

You can of course buy all of these audios from Mike’s comics. They carry all kinds of great Dr. Who stuff.

Amazon Review: Atlantic Wave 1316 CD Tower

My review of Atlantic’s Wave 1316 CD tower (holds 112 cd’s) is available at Amazon.com here.

It took me a while to break down and buy one. I had a vertical CD tower with a wood base that I picked up at a 2nd hand store that I absolutely loved, but couldn’t find one that matched it. I finally settled on the 1316 as the closest match out there at a good price.

If you collect the Big Finish Doctor who line this is EXACTLY the rack for you. Almost certainly you will be importing them to a PC or Ipod so they won’t be taken down much but as a fan you won’t want to part with them. Two of these will hold just about all the Doctor Who lines, a third will hold all the new releases.

Mentioned my review of Culture of Corruption that I wrote yesterday is marked as most useful. In 24 hours 51 out of 60 people have marked the review favorable.

That’s an awful lot of action fast. It is as much attention as the 59 reviews I wrote over the last year have gotten combined, then again not too many people have heard about the Big finish Doctor who audios, they don’t get a lot of ratings.

I guess I should read and review political books more often.
