Report Jthane's Profile

I am a fan of Sci Fi and read action/thrillers. My favorite authors are Douglas Preston, Lincoln Child, Andy McDermott and CS Ransom. I do not read comics or manga since I have very little time and don't particularly care for the graphic art forms. I am not a collector of any sci fi or anime related items. I do own an original Thor piece done by Jack Kirby and a Frank Frazetta print of Conan the barbarian. As a telcom engineer I once volunteered and headed staff for communication for the Atlanta Fantasy Fair (later DragonCon). I am married with one child, a daughter, who was a big fan of Sailor Moon. She introduced me to anime by watching The Devil is a Part Timer and Soul Eater (I haven't completed either). A patch was designed for our disaster recovery team, during the aftermath of a hurricane, which featured an anime guy radiating electricity so I figured I'd explore the anime world. I found I like it. It's over the top, breaks every law of physics and has character depth most TV shows lack. I've sampled some but I wanted some more expert advice and a chance to find out what is out there. Man, is it overwhelming.
