And we begin with an ending of sorts. Ah, “The Break-Up Speech.” Most of us have heard some variation of this at one point or another. Hell, most of us have given some variation of this a few times as well. Sucks to give. Sucks to hear. Of course, it’s a completely necessary part of [...]

Felix Hughes is the Eisner Award nominated writer of the critically acclaimed “Fire of the Pendragon,” a fantasy comic book published by the small imprint, Blam! Comics. A lifelong comics fan and aspiring creator, getting “Pendragon” published two years ago was a dream come true for Felix. And to make things even better, shortly after [...]
Why do so many romantic comedies open with characters waking up in the morning? 40 Year Old Virgin, Four Weddings and a Funeral, Little Black Book… (Good God, I just admitted to seeing Little Black Book.

Just wanted to point out that there is now an active Characters Page on this site. Accessed from the navigation bar at the top of the page, it’s a great resource to find out more about the characters of Over. Right now, there are only two characters on the page. As characters are introduced in [...]
Troy, Matt and Sootch may just be my favorite characters in Over. In earlier drafts of the script, I had some reviewers question the role these boys play in the story, and whether or not they belong.
