YES.
Finally, I can speak about the great and mighty preview book we got in the mail last Wednesday. When I opened the UPS envelope and saw it, I held it aloft like the mighty Excalibur for my co-workers to bask in it’s glory. And lo, it was awesome.
But first:
Ms. Marvel Special One-Shot #1
Okay, real quick, [...]
I wrote this article last night after some serious nail biting for a topic when I remembered that one of the managers at the store thought that in Wolverine #50, Sabretooth telling Wolverine that ‘he is what he will be come’ was telling the reader that Victor Creed was Logan from the future. Like the [...]
I wonder: why don’t we get the DC previews anymore? And will this paltry list matter when I go to work tomorrow and find the last issue of Annihilation in the next set of Marvel Previews? Can I just jump ahead a week?
Oh, also coming out today is Civil War: the Return with your favorite [...]
Okay, so I don’t read a lot of Ultimate Spider-Man. If someone says a particular storyline is really good, I’ll flip through it. I bought the first HC when it first came out and really enjoyed it. I also bought the scriptbook and a few other assorted issues.
I recommend it, but I [...]
At work on Wednesday, my boss is trying to get people ot pick up the new Spider-Man: Reign mini-series that he just might have over ordered on. “It’s like Dark Knight Spider-Man,” he lures customers with and for some, it works. Other want a little more info.
“Who’s Kaare Andrews,” one asks, leaving him to pause [...]
Say it ain’t so! Tell me Sean McKeever isn’t leaving Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane! Tell me he isn’t leaving Marvel for a DC exclusive!!
SM: … As far as Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane, um … my last issue of that will be #20.
NRAMA: You look like you’re about to cry.
SM: Yeah. Leaving that [...]
So, we all know Greg Land’s a hack, right? He’s know for making pictures look like actors (sometimes the wrong actors), ripping off exact photos of moments from movies and whatnot and… some people are fine with this. The fact that his X-Men: Phoenix Warsong work looked like Victoria’s Secret battledome doesn’t bother [...]
So, holidays are over and the hours at work have increased which means I’m reading more books and that means… MORE POSTS!
Like the fact that, against my better (snap) judgment, I read Joe Fridays this week. I know I shouldn’t, the man just gets me blood pressure up, but I like the Christmas tune [...]
Okay, we’ve all read Civil war: Frontline #10, right?
Well, none of you have been reading it like a friend of mine. The moment Civil War hit the stands, I wanted to make a condolence call for the character assassination that was about to take place and boy howdy, that is not a metaphor this [...]
JOE QUESADA HATES FOOTNOTE PEOPLE
I swear, I was just going to look for the new New Avengers list so I could talk about it here, but when I see a new Joe Fridays Monday edition, I thought to myself, “… well, I’ll just scan the questions. I won’t read the replies, just the questions!”
Oh, silly silly me.
NRAMA: Going [...]
