Exclusive Preview: “Old Man Quill” #1

By Brian Salvatore | Jan 31, 2019 | Previews

Once a revolutionary idea tied to Logan, the ‘Old Man’ title has become somewhat of a classic at Marvel. From Logan to Hawkeye to, now, Star-Lord, it is an idea that has gained so much traction that even the Distinguished Competition has borrowed it (for “Old Lady Harley,” obviously).

By Rowan Grover | Jan 31, 2019 | Television

Welcome back to our Deadly Class coverage! This week, the show finally starts to settle into its own vision separate from the comic, and I’m super grateful that it does. We get more bizarre and interesting assassination/criminal style classes and we get some fun friendships developed. To top it all off and cement the show’s […]

Pick of the Week: “Mysteries of Love in Space” #1

By Michael Govan | Jan 31, 2019 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

When you think ‘comic books’, you think ‘superheroes’. Granted, there are comics of other genres but the capes are top dog, no doubt. It can be easy to forget, this wasn’t always the case.
