I had a bad feeling about this month's issue when I saw that it featured the hero with a graphic compound fracture right on the cover. This last issue was so over the top in violence that it simply wasn't enjoyable at all. The reason I was initially
I'm starting to pack books for our family vacation...The Strain by del Toro and Hogan, Killing Floor by Lee Child, the last two Paul Dini Batman collections, a bunch of magazines (The New Republic, Wired)...and as I was going through my "not read yet
I've been meaning to show you guys this idea for a while, but never got around to it.
Basically one blogger feels that he has hit on the essential character of the current comicbook 'Age' we are living through.

Thoughts? What kind are you?

I have to make room so I'm selling some of my vast collection on eBay. It's all stuff that I have duplicates of or just know that I'll never read again. A list of the auctions can be found here and I'll probably be adding more. I'm not looking to mak
What are the five to ten comics (individual issues or titles) that sucked you into the habit? Which stories made you say, "Hey, I wanna read more of these!"?

Anyone have any examples?
