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 th
Saw a Takashi Miike picture called The Great Yokai War. "Yokai" is a Japanese term for monsters from folklore, as opposed to the more familiar kaiju. It's a kids' picture, about a young boy from Tokyo sent out to live in the countryside with his olde
I am very much looking forward to this show, despite the fact that it spun off from my least favorite show of the franchise (DIS I mean, not TOS). When DIS premiered, I was prepared to accept enhanced special effects and redesigned sets, but I was no
I turned my nose up at Marvel's Star Wars comics in the late '70s/early '80s. Fast forward to the early 2K's when I found new volumes of the Dark Horse series of tpbs reprinting it on clearance at Half Price Books. I snatched them up thinking "How ba

The new direction begins in Action Comics #1087. The story opens in the present day, at the Metropolis Expo of Tomorrow, where Superman has provided actual future technology (flight rings) for the exhibit. (Did you know that Perry White is now mayor
Didn't know what to expect from this new series. Different publishers have tried to bring back The Twilight Zone as a comic book series from time to time, but the results have never been all that impressive (to me), even with names such as Harlan Ell
A while back, DC announced a new line of reprints, called DC Finest, that packages about 500 pages of comics from various eras into a $40 softcover. From all appearances, it looks to be an attempt to mimic Marvel's successful Epic Collections line, i
Over three decades since the controversy and cancellation, Rick Veitch's legendary lost issues are completed. After a renowned two year run on the series, Veitch's grand finale to Swamp Thing was cut short, and never to see print. Whispers and leaks
Every week, one item or another in my pull and hold stands out for me above the rest in one way or another. Sometimes it’s a periodical, sometimes a graphic novel, sometimes a collection. Does that happen to you? If so, let’s hear about it here. It c
I have never been a Hal Jordan guy and I certainly never had time for Guy but the hype for the Lanterns show, my respect for John Stewart, and my reasonable nostaglia for the Justice League animated show (it was really good) have me going back to rea
