Oh, it was so popular the first time I did this, I figured it was time for another round of … name that artist! I’ll eat my children if you figure this one out!*

I read my comics in a certain order. I put the one I think will be the best on the bottom, and the one I think will be the “worst” at the top (”worst” because I like pretty much everything I buy, so I can’t really say they’re bad). It doesn’t always work […]

I usually only buy one issue of Wizard (”The magazine of comics, entertainment, and pop culture”) a year, and that’s the end-of-the-year extravanganza! But hey, Wizard hit issue #200, so of course I had to pick it up. Let’s look at what Wizard thinks is noteworthy about the last 17 years of comics.

I didn’t have much to say when Steve Gerber died because, believe it or don’t, I have read very little by the man.  Yes, it’s true!  However, I have read this, so here’s some kind of epitaph.  As always, there are plenty of SPOILERS below, but not as many as usual!

It’s been some time since I reviewed those big slabs of comics that we in-the-know people call graphic novels and those outside of our geek fiefdom call “longer comic books,” but it’s about time I got to it! I have a bunch of books under the fold!

Well, this sucks

Catwoman has been cancelled. Oh well. Less money that I have to spend! At least the goddamned Titans keep getting revived with shitty writers and shitty artists. So there’s some good news.
Sorry, I’m bitter. But that’s how we’re supposed to be on the Internet, right?

Noble Causes is back!

  • Tuesday, April 15th, 2008 at 2:40 PM EST

This Wednesday, Noble Causes #32 hits the stands. It’s been months since issue #31 came out, but it’s been even longer in the Nobles’ world, as five years have passed. Jay Faerber was nice enough to e-mail me a sneak preview, so I figured I’d remind you about what is one of the […]
