NO. 1: MARVEL COMICS
FANTASTIC FOUR #4, $3.99: This is a new storyline, as "One World Under Doom" is in the rear view for this title. I'm tempted to continue, as I enjo

My very first "Batman" comic (and my fourth overall) was Detective Comics #381. My second Batman comic (and my eighth overall) was #388. Both of these were drawn by the art team of Bob Brown and Joe Giella. #381 was written by Frank Robbins, and #388

I have a question about cataloguing comics and would like your opinions.
When one publisher uses the same series name more than once, volume numbers are easy. What about when multiple publishers use a series title over time? There are ot
Legionnaire Emerkeith Davyjack has died.
Emerkeith, real name Walter Loyd Lilly, joined us long ago, too long ago ago for me to find his first post. But he stopped posting in late 2020, and many of us feared the worst. That worst was realized when Le

ISSUE #1:
It looks like DC Comics are using the Omnibus format as their current way to collect classic material in chronological order. In the past, there have been the Archives series (hardcover, full color), the Showcase Presents series (softcover, black an

ISSUE #1 - "Krypton"
The destruction of Krypton has been shown so many different times that you wouldn't think there was anything new to be learned, but this time it's told from an entirely different point of view: Krypto's! Writer Ryan North has almo

I have been aware of the Menomonee Falls Gazette for quite some time, but I had never seen a copy until recently. For most of my life I have had an idea for a "comic strip newspaper." Little did I know such a thing already existed. The Menomonee Fall

AZTEC ACE:
I didn't buy this Eclipse series when it first came out in 1984. Several years ago, however, I saw the entire series except for issue #1 for sale at Half Price Books. (That's pretty common at HPB. Either selle

The rules I am planning to follow:
Just super-heroes and super-villains, so no one like Captains, Savage, Fear, Compass or Kirk.
I meant to post this earlier but Night of the Lepus is on TCM tonight (4/15) at 11:30 PM EST.
This is one of those movies that I always heard about but never seen.
Of course, part of me wanting to see this is that DeForest Kelley is in it. As a kid,

I'll never forget the first Batman comic strip by Marshall Rogers.
Marshall Rogers' version is "movie adjacent." Batman is new to Gotham City. He has recently defeated the Joker, but the Joker survived. Rogers introduces a new threat: the Catwoman. He

I started reading comic strips (or having them read to me) at roughly the same time I started reading comic books. But in my youngest years, I was more familiar with comic strips (with the "Sunday funnies" coming into our house at the rate of once a

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!)
So here's that
