Arguably the most beloved superhero by everyone here at the blog, Green Lantern has really become something else in the past couple years. Ever since Geoff Johns’ brought him back in Green Lantern: Rebirth, Hal Jordan has absolutely been a force to be reckoned with (and here’s hoping Johns does the same to Barry Allen). […]

Scott Pilgrim vs. Every Other Comic Movie Ever

By | May 27, 2009 | Columns

The first place I ever saw anything about Scott Pilgrim was a few years ago at the Loussac Library in Anchorage, Alaska.

Late Pass Review: Overlook #2

By | May 20, 2009 | Reviews

As has been seen, I read a lot every week. Every week I get an e-mail telling me what comes out during the week, and I go through the list and cross out/delete everything I don’t plan to read. My pull list is kind of daunting, and it occasionally gives me nightmares. My bank account […]
