Welcome, citizens, to this week’s installment of Multiver-City One! Each and every Wednesday we will be examining the latest Prog from Tharg and the droids over at 2000 AD, and giving you all the pertinent information you’ll need headed into this week’s Thrill-Zine! We’ve got a new Prog this week, so let’s get right to […]

Artist August: George Pérez [Art Feature]

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 12, 2014 | Columns

George Pérez, I’ve always felt, is the John Romita Jr. of DC, even though he did plenty of work at Marvel. What I mean by that is this: his style, for a time, fit the DC aesthetic to an absolute tee. For the five or six years directly surrounding “Crisis on Infinite Earths,” Pérez was […]

Comics Should Be Cheap! (8/13/2014)

By Multiversity Staff | Aug 12, 2014 | 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 […]

Artist August: Tula Lotay [Art Feature]

By David Harper | Aug 11, 2014 | Columns

Social media, when used properly, can be a comic creator’s best friend. It’s a tricky beast to handle, as it easily can push readers away just as easy as it can bring them in, but as someone who wrangles social media for a living, I’d say on the whole comic writers and artists leverage social […]

Artist August: Jack Kirby [Art Feature]

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 10, 2014 | Columns

What else can be said about the King of Comics? Not much – especially not from someone like me, who can barely draw a stick figure. This is an incredibly hard feature to put together because of just how much work the man did – so, instead of trying to be a complete survey of […]

Artist August: Jaime Hernandez [Art Feature]

By Mike Romeo | Aug 9, 2014 | Columns

Jaime Hernandez is a cartoonist almost entirely without peer. For over thirty years he’s created comics on his own terms and in his own way. Along with his brother Gilbert, Jaime has told his stories in the pages of Love and Rockets. Sometimes semi-annually, sometimes bi-monthly, and currently annually, Jaime’s L&R contribution has been following […]

Saturday Morning Panels (Week of 8/6/14)

By Multiversity Staff | Aug 9, 2014 | Columns

Hello, and welcome to Saturday Morning Panels! It’s a very simple concept: since none of us are up to watching Saturday morning cartoons anymore, we are instead going to share with you our favorite panels from the week before. It’s a bit like Comics Should Be Cheap, except with more pictures and less reading. And, […]

The DC3 Presents: “New 52: Futures End,” Week 14: The State of the Series

By Brian Salvatore, Vince Ostrowski and Zach Wilkerson | Aug 8, 2014 | Columns

The DC3 decided to take on the Herculean task of covering DC’s weekly books! Our coverage will rotate between creator interviews, issue reviews and annotations, and long-form pieces on featured characters. This, friends, is the DC3kly! Much like we did last week, today we take a look at the series as a whole, and share […]

Artist August: Vera Brosgol [Art Feature]

By Mark Tweedale | Aug 8, 2014 | Columns

Vera Brosgol is a storyboard and concept artist for the stop motion animation studio LAIKA. In terms of comics work, she occasionally does hourly comics on her Twitter account, and she’s done guest comics for Scary Go Round, and… Oh, that’s right! She also did an Eisner-winning comic called Anya’s Ghost. I hope she’ll do […]

The Hour Cosmic Presents: Our Favorite Supervillain Lairs

By Brian Salvatore and Greg Matiasevich | Aug 7, 2014 | Columns

In case you missed our most recent episode (Episode 78: The Hulk Follows the Money with Dennis Hopeless), we talked a bit about supervillain lairs and, specifically, how we would design our own. Well, Greg and Brian take a look today at two of their favorite evil lairs, and while you check that out, why […]

The DC3 Presents: “New 52: Futures End,” Week 14: The Five Most Burning Questions Thus Far

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 7, 2014 | Columns

The DC3 decided to take on the Herculean task of covering DC’s weekly books! Our coverage will rotate between creator interviews, issue reviews and annotations, and long-form pieces on featured characters. This, friends, is the DC3kly! Tomorrow, we will have a “state of the union” style chat about the series up to this point, but […]

Artist August: Emma Rios [Art Feature]

By Alice W. Castle | Aug 7, 2014 | Columns

It’s funny how the moments in which you discover something that will become important to you are often complete accidents or coincidences. I first saw artwork in the interiors of “Amazing Spider-Man” #677, the first issue of a crossover between “Amazing Spider-Man” and “Daredevil” written by Mark Waid. I only bought the issue because I […]

Art Of The Week: Week Of 08/06/2014

By Alice W. Castle | Aug 6, 2014 | Columns

So, guess what: Guardians Of The Galaxy was pretty darn good. Not just as a fun film that takes the vein of space opera adventure and places it firmly in the Marvel Universe, but also an in-universe parody/deconstruction of The Avengers. Because of that, I wanted to showcase this piece by Andrew MacLean of the […]

MC2: Avengers Now! and the Wild World of Comic Book Branding

By David Harper and Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 6, 2014 | Columns

David: It’s been a bit since we chatted Matt, but I have some news for you. You might want to sit down for this. So The Falcon is now Captain America. Thor is now a woman. Iron Man is now silver, a west coaster and wears a suit named after something I think that originates […]

Artist August: Michael Cho [Art Feature]

By David Harper | Aug 6, 2014 | Columns

Sometimes you discover artists in the most random places. For example, my wife used to regularly use the app for FFFFOUND! to look at art and occasionally nerdy things, and while she was doing that, she came across some comic like art. It was a Batman and Robin piece. “Oh! That’s Darwyn Cooke, I think. […]

Multiver-City One: 2000 AD Prog 1893

This Month in Comics: July 2014

By Michelle White | Aug 5, 2014 | Columns

How do you sum up July in comics? There was only the biggest comic convention in the world, is all, and while it wasn’t the best year for announcements, there’s still plenty to discuss. We also lost an Eisner – which puts us in fine company, I gotta say. One surprise was the announcement of […]

Artist August: Michael Allred [Art Feature]

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 5, 2014 | Columns

When I think about what comics looks like, I think of Michael Allred’s art. His work is both fantastical and deeply rooted in the “pop culture” of the real world, allowing his work to exist in this wonderfully odd space. His is a creator that manages to have firm footing in both the creator-owned world […]

Artist August: Guillaume Singelin [Art Feature]

By Mike Romeo | Aug 4, 2014 | Columns

Guillaume Singelin is an artist who’s come to my attention relatively recently. The very first bit of his work to catch my eye were his designs for Jun, a young girl with an eye patch and a giant gun (you’ll see a bit of her below.) Examining Singelin’s art, you’ll see that there is an […]

Multiversity’s Got You Covered: The Best Covers of July 2014

Got You Covered is back with another look at the best covers of the month. At the end of each month, we’ll be sharing the absolute best (in one writer’s mind) in comic covers for the month. Unlike before, they won’t be ranked, they’ll just be listed alphabetically with explanations as to why each is […]
