Welcome to the "The Eks Factor", I'm Steve Ekstrom--writer and Pop Culture enthusiast. This blog will contain bi-weekly columns reviewing comics; occasional short interviews with comic industry professionals; commentary on professional wrestling; news about action figures; and an occasional movie, CD, or DVD review. I am currently a member of the "Best Shots" crew on Newsarama reviewing comics on a weekly basis. I am working on a graphic novel for publication within the next year so DO NOT be surprised if I fall a little behind on this Blog. I welcome anyone who appreciates the necessity for open forum and has a discerning, critical eye for any of the mediums discussed here at "The Eks Factor"--enjoy!
Hopefully, my first edition of the Eks Factor will feature an interview with Steve Niles, author of "30 Days of Night" and "Criminal Macabre".
See you soon!

B&E? What happens when you realize all you wanted to do was kick a door in?
Now now--if you don't poke around inside you may never know what you might find. Remember that time with the Middle School lunchroom and the Fudgsicles?
A beginning. Liked your review of New Avengers 26. Exactly how I felt too. Until I saw that issue I had decided not to buy that book anymore. Hm. We will just have to see, though. I can't wait to get down and dirty shredding other peoples work on the internet! Fun fun fun.
Well easy big fella. It's not just about shredding someone's work--you have to be somewhat objective at the same time, right?
Steve Niles? Super-awesome! With Sam Raimi producing the "30 Days" movie, and Josh Hartnett growing his very first facial hair for it, I think it'll be a great flick.
Can't wait to read some bloggings!!!
Glad to see you could make it, Adam--I got worried and thought you and your wife had drank enough wine to scare your co-workers again and they had you both put in Betty Ford--the clinic, not actually Betty Ford. Gross.
Hey man. Looking forward to reading some reviews. I'll be sticking around and check how this blog turns out... Sounds interesting.
