Soliciting Multiversity: DC’s Top 10 in December 2013

By Brian Salvatore | Sep 17, 2013 | Columns

Another month, another Soliciting Multiversity look at what DC has planned three months hence. Unlike last month, only one book (“Batman”) is concerned at all with ‘Zero Year,’ but ‘Forever Evil’ still dominates DC’s offerings this month (11 titles are tie-ins or the miniseries proper). However, you’ll find none that here! Here are ten biggest […]

Countdown: The Top 5 Things The Crime Syndicate Have Done to the Justice League for “Forever Evil”

By Matthew Meylikhov and Kristin Boucher | Sep 17, 2013 | Columns

With Villain’s Month in full swing, now is a horrible time to be a hero in the DC Universe. Everything is all bad news this, bad guys that. Nobody is happy because there’s just all this miserable stuff going on. Poor heroes. And the Justice League? They’re nowhere to be found, locked up in some […]

Hype Machine: Zero

By Matthew Meylikhov | Sep 17, 2013 | Columns

You’re going to be hearing a lot about this book over the week, I’d imagine. It’s our Pick of the Week, something we’ve been teasing for a while and discussing with series writer/creator Ales Kot extensively. It’s one of my most anticipated releases of the year, and I’ve already had the opportunity to read the […]

Comics Should Be Cheap! (9/18/2013)

By Multiversity Staff | Sep 17, 2013 | 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 […]

The Dollars and $ense Behind Creating a Spin-Off to “The Walking Dead” on AMC

By David Harper and Matthew Meylikhov | Sep 17, 2013 | Columns

David: So Matt, you and I are the resident reviewers of AMC’s “The Walking Dead” aka the resident masochists of the review staff (don’t forget to talk about this on Twitter under the hashtag #TWDmasochism for all you Talking Dead folks). In its best moments, the show is exciting in a dumb way and decent […]

The Multiversity Collection: September 2013 Titles

By Matthew Meylikhov | Sep 16, 2013 | Columns

From the desk of Matthew Meylikhov: Here’s a complete shocker: I’m a huge fan of the Criterion Collection.

Tradewaiter: Thief of Thieves Vol. 2 – Help Me

By Drew Bradley | Sep 16, 2013 | Columns

This column doesn’t normally revisit a series after reviewing it once, but “Thief of Thieves” is a special case. Like a television show, every ‘episode’ (in this case, every arc) has a different writer who follows a story line plotted for them in advance (in this case, by Robert Kirkman). The artist, Shawn Martinbrough stays […]

Boomb Tube: One Year Later

By James Johnston | Sep 12, 2013 | Columns

One year. It’s a long time. Babies can be made in one year, or so I’ve heard. It was one year ago that I started this “Boomb Tube” column and for all of those who’ve been reading it this whole time I have this to say: “Why?” Now that the sentimental bit is over, let’s […]

We wasted no time in reaching out to one of the cast members of the book, Namor, the Sub-Mariner, about some of his favorite songs for this column. So, without further ado, Namor on Music! […]

Counting Down the Ten Best Comic Creative Team Shifts

By David Harper | Sep 11, 2013 | Columns

Much ado has been made about not only JH Williams III and W. Haden Blackman’s departure from “Batwoman,” and with good reason: it’s a great team leaving a top book at their peak because they couldn’t finish their story. And many likely will not continue to read the book for that reason, but that’d be […]

Tradewaiter: DCU Presents Savage

By Drew Bradley | Sep 9, 2013 | Columns

If you’ve ever wished Marvel or DC would add some variety to their publishing line, you should be paying attention to “DCU Presents Savage”. The main story has more in common with Silence of the Lambs than it does with the superhero-populated world in which it’s set. Too bad the rest of the anthology feels […]

The DC3: Villains Month Week One Roundup

By Brian Salvatore, Vince Ostrowski and Zach Wilkerson | Sep 6, 2013 | Columns

While all of us at Multiversity are fans of a wide spectrum of comics, there are a few of us that tend to self-identify as “DC guys.” We’ve cried for justice; we’ve been through the blackest nights and the brightest days. And now, we’ve been culled together for a new column to focus on some […]

Stripped At The Edinburgh Book Festival: Comic Con Done Scottish

By Alice W. Castle | Sep 6, 2013 | Columns

There was once a prevailing thought, once upon a time, that the Comic Con was a wholly American phenomenon. All over the continental United States, there a celebrations of the comic medium and those that work within it and if you lived outside of the U.S., you either had to cough up the money for […]

Counting Down Comics’ Five Greatest Events

By David Harper | Sep 4, 2013 | Columns
