On The Hunt With Carnage And Creative Team of “Web of Venom: Funeral Pyre”

By Kyle Welch | Jul 23, 2019 | Interviews

Events are common place in the comic medium nowadays. Likewise, Venom and Carnage have become more common and widely used characters in and outside of Spider-Man comics. However, in the 90’s, events and the symbiotes were not as prevalent. That was until “Maximum Carnage,” one of the biggest things to happen to a young comic […]

Comics Should Be Cheap! (7/24/2019)

By Multiversity Staff | Jul 23, 2019 | Columns

Buying comics can be an expensive hobby. A lot of fans simply can’t afford everything they’re interested in, due to rising prices and the over-saturation of the market with superhero titles. That’s why we’re here. Every week, the Multiversity staff is asked “What would you buy this week if you couldn’t go over $20?” and […]

Today on our weekly revisit of Disney’s Gargoyles we’re looking at “Ill Met by Moonlight” (aired February 22, 1996), which begins to draw the Avalon arc to a close with the first appearance of Oberon and Titania, who are none too pleased about the clan that’s settled on the island during their millennium long absence.

Five Thoughts on Jessica Jones‘s “A.K.A. Sorry Face”

By Dexter Buschetelli | Jul 22, 2019 | Television

Jessica Jones continues to trudge along, dragging its heels towards that light at the end of the tunnel; refusing to accept not only its own death but that of the greater Netflix Marvel Universe. If SDCC told us anything we didn’t already know, it is that this pocket of Marvel’s cinematic output is dead, and […]

“X-Factor” #220-228

By Jaina Hill | Jul 22, 2019 | Columns

These issues of “X-Factor” were subpar, but I still enjoyed the hell out of them. And hell is the operative word, because both stories dive into the demonic side of the Marvel universe. With a great collection of ghouls and hellspawn, you’d hope for a great time, but various comics crafting concerns make these issues […]

By Dexter Buschetelli | Jul 22, 2019 | Television

Previously on our Summer TV Binge, we covered the good, the bad. We covered them both and then you have X-Men: The Animated Series. It’s a series that is well-remembered but not without issues. The beginning of season two does pick up some of the plot threads left behind from the year prior as well […]

“Countdown” #51-46

By Walt Richardson | Jul 22, 2019 | Reviews

The first few issues of “Countdown” were… underwhelming. However, I mean that in a slightly positive way, considering the less-than-stellar reputation the series has. In fact, there are some somewhat decent ideas here, the first of which has to do with the rebirth of the multiverse in “52” and Superboy Prime changing reality via his […]

Exclusive Preview: “Batman Beyond” #34

“Batman Beyond” is one of a small number of books that has retained its writer over the course of its ‘Rebirth’ run. Dan Jurgens was also the writer of the previous volume of “Batman Beyond,” and so has been steering Terry’s ship for four years already. We are thrilled to share an exclusive first look […]
