BONUS REVIEW by Mollie Egan
There's no singing or blogging but there is some evil geniusness in the comic Dr. Horrible. Written by Zack Whedon, it is based on Doctor Horrible's Sing-Along Blog which was writen/directed by Joss, Zack, and Jed Whedon and Maurissa Tancharoen. Making sure that everyone knows the the evil genius' have feelings too; the comic keeps the fun and games that the Sing-Along has. A good old read for anyone looking for some laughs.
