Finally I can actually access this darn site.
Would you believe me when I tell you that I forgot my username and password for this blog?
And best of all, I even forgot which email address I registered it with.
That happens when you have 10 email addresses.
Anything more than that, you can’t get anything done.
Well let’s see what I’ve been up to since my last post…
Holy guacamole, batman! It’s been two months since RK’s last post!
I’ve been reading (comics, mostly, but they still count, don’t they?), making music, refining my band’s next album, covering a few songs.
Some songs I’ve covered and translated into my native tongue, which is Malay.
Have a listen..
Sentiasa Cintaku (Always Be My Baby) – Raja Kumbang
You can download a couple of my songs here though:

About the comics, lets see.. Recently I’ve finished reading Neil Gaiman’s Eternals, DC’s 4 volumes of 52, Marvel’s Civil War saga and quite a few others. I’m on the lookout for more stuff about Starman and the JSA though. Maybe more of The Authority and Stormwatch (version 2) too.
My favourite comic characters?
Not in any specific order, they are:
Spider-man ………. with great power comes great responsibility. Don’t forget the hyphen. Spider-hypen-man
Thor …………. A courteous, noble superhero who preaches loyalty to one’s friends and to live a good life. Plus, he’s got a wicked hammer to pound baddies with.
Green Lantern (all incarnations, yes, even Guy Gardner) …… one of my favourite DC characters. A mythology by itself. Anyone can be a GL. Just go get yourself the right ring.
Flash (all incarnations) …… I’ve always had a thing for speedsters. And Wally’s romance (and marriage also) with Linda Park is not all so mushy and cliche, but quite mature and pleasing to read about. I feel that it’s better than Lois and Clark’s (for those who don’t know, that’s Lois Lane and Clark Kent/Superman). Too bad about Kid Flash/Bart Allen. Pity he died, but then again, he wasn’t much of a strong character.
Nightwing …… From being Batman’s 2nd Robin to being the Kevin Bacon of the DC universe. Every hero or villain can be related to him by at most 6 degrees of separation. He’s just like Batman, a normal, non-mutated, non metahuman, non-powered human individual who just works hard and uses his quick reflexes, olympic level physical capabilities, extensive martial arts training and feet-on-the-ground gumshoe work to track and defeat baddies. I have to say, I miss the Elvis collar, but I guess that it hindered his vision.
Green Arrow (Oliver Queen and son, Connor Hawke) ….. A plain ol’ guy that can shoot arrows? What’s so cool about that? It’s cool when you have trick arrows like the boxing glove arrow, the super-glue arrow, the bolas arrow, the loop de loop arrow and lots more! Plus, he wears green! And, he’s always off on missions with Green Lantern. What a cool team.
There’s more I could write about, but I’m getting tired, had an awful lot of stuff going on at work just now.
I’m pooped. Time to catch some zee’s. Maybe I’ll dream of wearing a green ring and carrying a nasty hammer, pounding baddies into dirt.
RK out~
