Love Everlasting Volume 1; and Ice Cream Man Volume 11- Horror, Horror. Ice Cream Man is great as always, but Love Everlasting was a surprise, despite the all-star creative team (Tom King, writer; Elsa Charretier, artist; Matt Hollingsworth, colorist; Clayton Cowles, letterer). I was not…

A Cover a Day
Ok, how about this for an idea. We take it in turns to post a favourite (British spelling) comic cover every day. This went really well on the comic fan website that I used to frequent. What we tried to do was find a theme or subject and follow…
Read more…Comics for Feb. 18, 2026
GoCollect.com pooped out on me this week. I was starting to feel confident in its list, and the separation by publisher was convenient. Since it's unavailable this week (and for all I know forever) I'm looking at other sites, which aren't quite as…

Welcome to our re-read of the first and greatest superhero team in comics ... and quite a bit more! My plan is to re-read and discuss the Golden Age Justice Society of America, which ran from All-Star Comics #3 (Winter 1940) to All-Star Comics #57…
Read more…Superman's Pals
I don't remember when it was, exactly, that I lost interest in Superman. There was a time, from Crisis on Infinite Earths until well into the 2Ks, that I had complete collections of every Superman title published (Superman, Action Comics, Adventures…
