TONY'S ONLINE TIPS
for Tuesday, March 8, 2005
Please, Lord, forgive Tony for once again failing to write a new TOT today. He does try to do Your work here, but writing these online columns doesn't pay and sometimes he has to focus on writing stuff that does. I know he's going to do his very best to be back soon with more stuff.
In the meantime, just to give his loyal readers something to do, please inspire them to visit the TONY POLLS page and then vote on the new questions Tony has posted there. These are the last of this year's Saturn Awards nominees, coming to us via the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror Films.
Interested readers can cast their ballots at:
www.worldfamouscomics.com/tony/poll
Thanks for being so understanding, Lord.

THE "TONY" SCALE
ZERO: Burn your money before buying any comic receiving this rating. It doesn't *necessarily* mean there's absolutely nothing of value here - though it *could* - but whatever value it might possess shrinks into insignificance before its overall awfulness.
ONE: Buy something else. Maybe I found something which wasn't completely dreadful in the item, but not enough for me to recommend it when there are better comics available. I only want what's best for you, my children.
TWO: Basic judgment call. I found some value, but not enough to recommend it. My review should give you enough info to decide if you want to take a chance on it. Are you feeling lucky today, punk? Well, are you?
THREE: This denotes something I find perfectly respectable. There are better books out there, but I wouldn't regret buying this item. Based on my review, you should be able to determine if it's of interest to you. Let the Force guide you.
FOUR: I recommend anything earning this rating. Unless you don't like the genre, subject matter, or past work of the creators, I believe you'll enjoy this item. Isn't it uncanny how I can look right into your soul that way?
FIVE: Anything getting this rating is among the best comicdom has to offer. You should buy/read this, even if the genre/subject matter doesn't appeal to you. It's for your own good. Me, I live for comics and books this good...but not in a pathetic "Comic-Book Guy" sort of way.
