A Crisis of Chronology: Cosmic Marvel

By | Mar 28, 2010 | Columns

With the release of Annihilation, Marvel’s cosmic setting got the boost of attention that it really needed. It was easily accessible to new readers, and caused said newer readers to become well acquainted with Marvel’s until then under-appreciated space tales.

By | Mar 14, 2010 | Columns

Following the conclusion of Matt’s three part treatise on the crossover (parts one, two and three), I found it only appropriate to cover one of the most well known crossovers: DC’s massive Infinite Crisis.
