With the advent of "Hereos Return," Avengers once again became my favorite title, a status it maintained right up until the launch of X-Men: The Hidden Years a year later. the premise of the series is that it would fill the gap from #67-93 when X-Men
I didn't entirely get the intended construction of the jokes in the Sunday Bizzaro (Sp??) strip yesterday . ( The strip appars to be not online , as it is a King Features Syndicate strip , who - Gasp !!! - appear to think they're in the comics busi
I’m kind of a sucker for these “What If” series where they present variations on a given character, even if they are more like “Elseworlds” than proper “What Ifs” to my mind.

It just occured to me that there might be some utility in having a thread where we post what cons we're going to (and other assorted nerdery) to see if anyone wants to meet up for a while, and see each other in person! (gasp!)
Next month, DC Comics will split in two. When "Absolute Power" comes to an end -- and we have a thread on that HERE -- something happens that creates, for lack of a better term, a new Earth-2. This new parallel universe will be published i
I first saw “The Celestial Toymaker” (episode four on the Lost in Time DVD set) early on in my Doctor Who watching and, frankly, didn’t get that much from it. At that time I had yet to meet Steven, much less Dodo, so I had no connection to the compan
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
This release (described as a "mini-series) from 2018 comprises four individual hour-long episodes. I think I listened to one of them, but was too concerned with where (or even if) they fit into continuity to really enjoy it. Maggie and Quentin were n
Got ahold of a copy of this, and re-watched it last night. I’ve got a few thoughts on it below:

Since the fall of Krakoa, Charles Xavier has been locked up in Graymalkin Prison, formerly the the Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters, in Westchester, New York.
I confess that I don't know entirely why; I stopped reading the Krakoa books about two y
I haven't seen any discussion here about Gaiman, and maybe it's because we don't really want to go down that road with another celebrated person. I don't know even know what to say. I've admired his writing, my brief interaction with him at a con was
ASSORTED CRISIS EVENTS #1 Writer: Deniz Camp (20th Century Men, The Ultimates, Absolute Martian Manhunter). Artist: Eric Zawadzki (Heart Attack, House of El). IMAGE, $4.99.
I'm starting this thread for the little things that I've discovered while re-reading my old books. This will probably be trivia of the most trivial nature but it is what it is!
Today I picked out TWO things from Detective Comics #446 (Ap'75):
