Time Well Spent

Everyone remember that comics come in this week on Thursday due to Memorial Day?
Didn’t think so.  I forgot up until Monday, myself.  But please, do go visit anyway.  Your local comic shop is going to have plenty of people poking their head in, looking at the clerks, and then zipping out the moment they here [...]

Judgment of Snappage!

So, Atomic Comics had this little news thing on Dark Knight casting and how Anthony Michael Hall has been “sworn to secrecy” over his role in the upcoming movie.  Now, thanks to how freakin’ AWESOME the ibelieveinharveydenttoo.com campaign was, I feel moved to start the guessing game.
Remember folks:  this is the way to incite your [...]

Blogging Oughta Be Fun!

…and it always is, sir.  Thanks Bully, for keeping it real and plush.

How the Mighty Have Fallen

I think I should just stick with the comics.
And on that subject!
I have some crow to eat: right now, I feel I am able to say that I really like the New Avengers. And I mean that, no trickery or sneakiness or anything. I like that book. It’s not perfect, [...]

Raped-into-Actualization

And here I thought there was something wrong with me. I thought I might be a problem because of my low tolerances. Maybe I just was part of the problem instead of the solution. I even met Adam Hughes yesterday at the Star Wars: Celebration IV yesterday and I didn’t throw a [...]

A Shortie

Once again, Jeff Parker continues to write the comics I want to read.
This most recent issue of Marvel Adventures: Avengers have a healthy and hale Dr. Vernon Van Dyne explaining his daughter’s rise to superhero-dom  to Storm.  Storm assumes that she put on the costume to avenger her mother’s death as well… that’s kind of [...]

They Shoot MJs, Don’t They?

Alright, it’s late and I’ve hemmed and hawed over even saying anything, because sometimes, it’s just better to agree to disagree, but after reading a bunch of different articles and commentaries, I think I need some help.  I come to you, dear reader with a question:

Why does this not upset me?  Why do I even [...]

This Comic Is Not Yet Rated

For the past two weeks, Joe Quesada has been trying to answer a particular reader question and … well, bless his heart, he’s failing every time. Now, as a conscientious retail monkey, I humbly admit that, well, I’m a little more in the trenches than the ol’ EIC. I have parents coming in [...]

The Spider (Part Two)

I have now seen Spider-Man 3.
Without spoilers, I can tell you that I cannot think of a single serious thing wrong with the movie.  Not even a third of the way through, the little kid next to me turns to his friend and stage whispers, “This is the best Spider-Man movie ever!”  Mind you, I [...]
