Exclusive Preview: “Prison Pit” Book Six

By | May 23, 2018 | Previews

Since 2009, Johnny Ryan (“Angry Youth Comix”) has been turning in these enormous farcical odes to pro-wrestling, space operas, and the manga “Berserk” with “Prison Pit.” Published by Fantagraphics, the series is incredibly gory, filled with weird alien nudity, insane antics, and brutal violence, all of it delivered under Ryan’s wild and energetic pen. The […]

Beyond Wakanda: Marvel’s Other International Heroes

By | May 22, 2018 | Longform

Earlier this month, it was widely reported Marvel and Chinese company NetEase’s webcomics, “Warriors of Three Sovereigns” and “Cyclone,” would star the Marvel Universe’s first Chinese superheroes. While they certainly feature Marvel’s first manhua heroes, that isn’t true from an in-universe perspective: Marvel Comics have introduced plenty of Chinese and other international do-gooders over the […]

For those reasons, the anticipation for the film has been rather muted, at least by standard Star Wars standards. There […]

Avengers Historian #5: The Importance of Don Heck

By | May 22, 2018 | Columns

The early creative history of “Avengers” is more akin to planetary formation than the typical production process of a 1960s Marvel comic. Jack Kirby and Stan Lee smashed the necessary solar debris into a bubbling molten blob but then they quickly left the terraforming process to Don Heck and Roy Thomas. I wouldn’t characterize Jack […]

Comics Should Be Cheap! (5/23/2018)

By | May 22, 2018 | 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 […]

Deadpool 2

By | May 17, 2018 | Reviews

Deadpool occupies a weird place in the comics world. On one hand, the character is representative of the basest impulses of comics: catchphrases, insane violence, blatant theft of intellectual property. On the other, he’s become an avatar for self-awareness, breaking the fourth wall, and for being as ‘comic book-y’ as possible. Those two elements don’t […]
