First thing one of my fellow employees says to me this morning is, “So, Marvel going to issue an apology?”
Why he’s asking me, I don’t know. At this point the folks at the House of Ideas are just fine with their Brave New World and at this point, there’s nothing to do but wait [...]
If there is one thing that high school taught me is that, if you like your friends and want to get along with a majority of people, DO NOT talk about religion or politics. Plain and simple, people on the whole marry themselves to these beliefs above all others. You can convince someone [...]
Well folks, here we are: Civil War #7 eve. Can you sleep?
In just a few hours (hopefully less if UPS shows up at the store on time), we’ll have the start to the end of the Marvel tent event of the summer. Just this issue… then Civil War: The Confession, Civil War: Battle Damage Report, [...]

Hey, remember Echo?
Sure, we all do! She’s that really cool Native American chick who’s deaf and was intro’d by David Mack and given this really interesting story about identity and overcoming your past and had some fantastic art and oh yeah, she’s Ronin. Ah well, it was a good idea while it lasted and at [...]
Puny Banner, Puny Me
Welp, I finally saw him. Since March of last year, Bruce Banner has been missing from his own book as much as the Hulk’s been missing from the Marvel Universe. The last time he was on panel at all was during the mission that SHIELD devised to trick him into space. When [...]
