About Me

My photo
Nickxandar
Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia
Malaysian male urbanite with unhealthy obsession with collecting comic books, boyband music and WB TV shows on DVD. Not particularly well read, well travelled or well heeled but when push comes to shove, not the worst person to have your back. A head full of movie, comic book and television trivia, a willing ear to bend, a shoulder hopefully strong enough to lend support, a heart with rooms to spare, hands to share the burden and feet to walk beside with. Hopefully the rest of my parts would cooperate as well ... bwahaha!!!
