Multiversity 101: Waiting For Trade

By | May 16, 2010 | Longform

We’ve all heard or used this phrase before. “Are you reading Chew?” “No, I’m waiting for trade.” It happens. In today’s economy, a lot of people find that buying comics on a weekly basis is simply not feasible. It’s unfortunate, but it happens.

‘Heroes’ Finally Biting The Dust?

By | May 14, 2010 | News

There have been a lot of rumors lately that the show Heroes is not going to be coming back. Heck, I reported this last year. Let’s be honest here – there is no reason for this show to come back. It stopped being good quite some time ago, especially when the initial simplicity was thrown […]
