The long-time comics artist Fran Matera , who worked on (his last job before retiring) the long-running syndicated strip STEVE ROPER & MIKE NOMAD and did Hulk material for Marvel among many other things , is apparently sick and near death , a Faceboo
1)Here we have the introduction of the Doctor's newest companion, Martha Jones, as played by Freema Agyeman. I quite like Freema, and have nothing against Martha as a character - if I was less than overwhelmed by her, it's because after all the soap
1)In Catherine Tate, we have another person who was apparently a big deal in the UK, but of whom I had somehow managed never to hear prior to her appearance in the program. The impression I have is that there was alot of fear that all she could do w

Tarzan: The Jesse Marsh Years Volume Ten (Dark Horse Archives, $49.99)
While I've been busy puzzling on this site over the last nine volumes why artist Jesse Marsh is so widely admired -- I find his work adequate, but not much more -- I've mostly f

1)I'm not generally a big fan of these so-called "Doctor lite" episodes. I understand they have to do them for practical reasons, and one or two of them have been OK, but they're not my favorites. If I'm watching Doctor Who, I want to see the Doctor.
I try not to duplicate too much material in my collection, but for some reason I can't resist "Secret Origins" collections, even when I already own all the stories in one form or another. Such is the c
1)"It's not twelve hours - it's twelve months." It was interesting to see one of the Doctor's "time goof-ups" make this kind of trouble for Rose. Really, you'd think this kind of thing would happen more often, considering the TARDIS' notorious unrel
1)Well, after starting out with an "Earth invaded" story, and following up with a "crisis out in space" story, we now re-visit another of the old show's story types, the "pseudo-historical". (A side note on Doctor Who terminology as I learned it: Wh
1)For whatever reason, I've always had trouble buying into the whole "people being turned into drawings" aspect of this, which has colored my perception to the whole episode. There's actually some good scary moments in this, including a "monster" tha
