This Month In Comics: August 2013

By Alice W. Castle | Sep 3, 2013 | Columns

Boy, what a month August was. I spent my month with the likes of Neil Gaiman, Kieron Gillen, Jamie McKelvie and Grant Morrison at Edinburgh’s Stripped celebration of comic books, but you’ll be hearing more about that soon enough. While I was doing that, there was something else everyone was talking about. And getting angry […]

The DC3: Trinity War Postmortem

By Brian Salvatore, Vince Ostrowski and Zach Wilkerson | Sep 3, 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 […]

Comics Should Be Cheap! (9/4/2013)

By Multiversity Staff | Sep 3, 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 […]

Saturday Morning Panels (Week of 8/28/2013)

By Multiversity Staff | Aug 31, 2013 | Columns

Hello, and welcome to Saturday Morning Panels, your new favorite Multiversity column! 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 […]

The DC3: The “End” of the Legion of Super-Heroes

By Brian Salvatore, Zach Wilkerson and Vince Ostrowski | Aug 30, 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 […]

Artist August: Francis Manapul [Art Feature]

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 30, 2013 | Columns

It is always a chore to put together an art feature, if only because we want to include more, more, more! Some of these pieces were easy choices (the Shazam! piece, a Krypto sketch), whereas others came through an image search and were new to us (the amazing Hal Jordan/Sinestro image). However we found them, […]

Artist August: Francis Manapul [Exclusive Line Art]

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 30, 2013 | Columns

The fine folks at DC Comics have been kind enough to share these incredible images with us. These are Francis Manapul pages for “The Flash” #23, just released this past Wednesday. In his interview with us, he described his process before passing his pages along to his co-writer/colorist Brian Buccelatto. These are five such pages […]

Artist August: Who Are the Most Underrated Artists in Comics?

By David Harper | Aug 29, 2013 | Columns

One of the funny things about doing Artist August every year is how, without fail, I am introduced to new artists during the conversations with the great creators we’re talking to. While everyone and their mother loves the work of current greats like Marcos Martin and Sean Murphy as well as legends like Jack Kirby […]

Boomb Tube: Terra-ing Up The Town

By James Johnston | Aug 28, 2013 | Columns

This week on Boomb Tube, Drake Bell Spider-Man swings his way onto Hulk and the Agents of SMASH while Terra infilitrates the Teen Titans! Go on and read more below. This week on Hulk and the Agents of SMASH, the team held poker night with guests The Thing and Spider-Man. Maybe this is a reflection on the state of Marvel rather […]

Art Of The Week: Week Of 08/28/2013

By Alice W. Castle | Aug 28, 2013 | Columns

Would you know that today’s Art Of The Week might be the best timed Art Of The Week ever? Because today is the celebration of Jack Kirby’s birthday. You’d think it would be an international holiday by now, but apparently not. I don’t need to tell you who Jack Kirby is. The man, the myth, […]

Artist August: Valerio Schiti [Art Process]

By David Harper | Aug 28, 2013 | Columns

To close out today’s Artist August efforts, we have a look inside the process for “Journey into Mystery” artist Valerio Schiti in last month’s issue #654. His work is absolutely incredible, and in this piece, you can see how the story goes from writer Kathryn Immonen’s script to Jordie Bellaire’s final colors. Take a look, […]

The Kirby Code by Tom Scioli [Guest Article]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 28, 2013 | Columns

Today, as part of our celebration of Jack Kirby’s birthday, we have two guest articles from two of our favorite creators who have been influenced by Jack Kirby’s work. We now present to you Tom Scioli, whose work is probably the most visually influenced by Jack Kirby in all the obvious ways. Scioli is an […]

The Kirby Rule by Michael Moreci [Guest Article]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 28, 2013 | Columns

Today, as part of our celebration of Jack Kirby’s birthday, we have two guest articles from two of our favorite creators who have been influenced by Jack Kirby’s work. First up is Michael Moreci, writer of “Hoax Hunters,” “Skybreaker” and more. While you may not see the direct Kirby influence in those books at a […]

By Matthew Meylikhov and Brian Salvatore | Aug 28, 2013 | Columns

Born August 28th, 1917, one of the most prolific and important creators in the world of comics is Jacob Kurtzberg also known as Jack Kirby, the King of Comics. A writer/artist from New York, Kirby is responsible for a huge majority of the modern Marvel/DC superheroes and characters that we love, especially at Marvel where […]

Artist August: Keith Giffen [Art Feature]

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 27, 2013 | Columns

Just like for many of our Artist August art features, we are sorely lacking here. Sure, we’re presenting 13 different examples of Keith Giffen’s amazing work, but that only scratches the surface, and really doesn’t do the man justice. However, from his self-portrait to his cover work, to interiors, to everything in between, we can’t […]

Artist August: Chip Zdarsky [Art Feature]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 26, 2013 | Columns

To top off today’s Artist August, we bring you our requisite art feature. Chip Zdarsky is about to meet a brand new audience when “Sex Criminals” drops a month from today (some of which can be seen here and here), but for many people I’d wager his work may be unfamiliar — and that’s a […]

Artist August: Benjamin Dewey [Art Process]

By David Harper | Aug 24, 2013 | Columns

As I mentioned earlier, Benjamin Dewey’s Tragedy Series – his brilliant webcomic series – is one of my absolute favorite webcomics. But with a schedule that hits three times a week, I often wondered “how does he do them? What’s his process?” Thankfully, I asked Ben that very question and he decided to share the […]

Multiversity Keeps It Real: March, Book One

By Michelle White | Aug 23, 2013 | Columns

This is the story of a key figure in the civil rights movement – told by the man himself. Written in collaboration with congressional staffer Andrew Aydin, and drawn by Nate Powell, this first volume of Congressman John Lewis’ autobiography is a moving look at a deeply influential man’s inspirations. Focusing, in the beginning, on […]

Artist August: Peter Snejbjerg [Art Feature]

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 23, 2013 | Columns

Peter Snejbjerg has drawn just about every type of comic over his career – superhero stuff, long form graphic novels, B.P.R.D. work, you name it. It is a real pleasure to share some of my favorite pieces of his work – be sure to notice his economy of lines, which lends the images detail and […]
