Review: Ex-Machina #50

By | Aug 19, 2010 | Reviews

It is well known along the halls of Multiversity that Brian K. Vaughan is my favorite writer. His work isn’t just my favorite but it was got me back into comics. In many ways, it made me realize that there was more to the world of comics than just capes, tights and superfights. To think […]

By | Aug 18, 2010 | Columns

Comics should be cheap. It’s a mantra shared by both new and long-time fans of the medium. To pay $3.99 for a 32 page comic seems insane to us, but we do it anyways because of a deep love for the characters and the stories that are told about them by exceptional creators. But if […]

Off the Cape: Four Eyes

By | Aug 17, 2010 | Columns

In this week’s Off the Cape, I take a look at Four Eyes from Joe Kelly and Max Fiumara. This book from Image Comics has been oft delayed but has earned critical acclaim thanks to Kelly’s standard (exceptional) work, Fiumara’s dazzling art, and a concept that is easy-to-love: a family (both in terms of nuclear and […]

The Dark Knight Becomes a White Lantern

By | Aug 16, 2010 | News

DC unveiled their solicits for November’s Brightest Day titles, and they included one heck of a doozy: White Lantern Batman. I have no idea exactly how this is going to work…but I’m intrigued.

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: KO’d From the Start

By | Aug 16, 2010 | Columns

With a budget of $60 million, strong reviews throughout (80% on Rotten Tomatoes), and a cast and crew seemingly befitting a box office success, some would have thought Edgar Wright’s Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (the adaptation of Bryan Lee O’Malley’s comic series) would have been a fairly good bet to be a hit. Box […]
