Review: Indestructible Hulk #1

By | Nov 23, 2012 | Reviews

I think there is little arguing against Mark Waid being comics’ reigning relaunch king.

Boomb Tube: The Brave and the Boomb

By | Nov 21, 2012 | Columns

Well we’ve reached quite a conundrum, haven’t we? Right now, the superhero cartoon show landscape is barren with DC Nation on hiatus until January, Avengers cancelled, and Ultimate Spider-Man gone to lick its wounds to strike back at me a year from now in a cross-over written by Scott Snyder. As a result, I have no current cartoons to […]
