Tradewaiter: Last Days of an Immortal

By Drew Bradley | Apr 15, 2013 | Columns

Tradewaiter changes its game this week and takes a look at an original graphic novel instead of collected issues. Surely this would only happen if the book were really, really good, or really, really bad, right? WHICH WILL IT BE?

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

Friday Recommendation: Minimum Wage

By Vince Ostrowski | Apr 12, 2013 | Columns

The whole “Saga” #12 ejaculate controversy got me thinking about the first time I ever saw such a thing in a comic book. I was trying to figure out why this particular panel of a decidedly adult comic book would cause such consternation among comic book fans, retailers, and the corporate entities involved. I started […]

A few months ago, DC announced that all of their April New 52 covers would be “WTF Certified” – in English, that means gatefold covers that revealed shocking/surprising/secret characters and events on their hidden side. We decided to investigate each cover and share with you, the Multiversity reader, just how shocking or game changing each […]

Comics Should Be Cheap! (4/10/2013)

By Walt Richardson | Apr 9, 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 […]

Tradewaiter: The Sixth Gun Volume 1 – Cold, Dead Fingers

By Drew Bradley | Apr 8, 2013 | Columns

If you’re reading this site, odds are you’ve heard (or said yourself) how comics and superhero comics aren’t synonyms, how sequential storytelling is a medium, not a genre, and how there’s a comic out there for everyone. Despite being aware of this, odds are you’ve passed by a critically acclaimed book because the genre isn’t […]

Strange Love – Part 16

By Jeremy Holt | Apr 5, 2013 | Columns

Sitting in a cafe on 7th street and 2nd Avenue in the East Village, I was back in New York City and unsure of how I felt about the return. Revisiting my old life immediately showed me its stark contrast with my new one in Vermont. A lot about me had changed in only a […]

Friday Recommendation: The Early Issues of “Batwing”

By Brian Salvatore | Apr 5, 2013 | Columns

On Wednesday, “Batwing” #19 was released, effectively ending the reign of David Zavimbe as the man behind the silver, armored cowl. While the character was introduced in the first volume of Grant Morrison’s “Batman Incorporated,” it was the first arc of its ongoing, New 52 series, was where the character truly took shape. Today is […]

Mignolaversity: Getting in the Process of “Abe Sapien” #2 from Mignola, Allie, Fiumara and Stewart

By David Harper and Brian Salvatore | Apr 3, 2013 | Columns

Given the combination of creators who work on the Mignolaverse books, with so many artists and co-writers joining on books both big and small, we’re very interested in the methods that they use in developing the stories. Even as the Mignolaversity duo, we never have gotten real, transparent insight into how such a thing happens. […]

Kickstarter Spotlight: The Cartoon Introduction to Climate Change

By Walt Richardson | Apr 2, 2013 | Columns

If you haven’t noticed, we here at Multiversity love non-fiction comics. Hell, we have an entire column dedicated to them! Something about the nature of comics makes it a perfect vehicle for learning, and while many creators have realized the same, the non-fiction field of comics is still the puniest portion of the published pie.

Tradewaiter: The Massive Volume 1 – Black Pacific

By Drew Bradley | Apr 2, 2013 | Columns

If you have an interesting enough premise, sometimes the novelty will be enough to garner attention. While “The Massive” doesn’t bring anything new to post-apocalyptic genre, the quality of its storytelling is high enough to make it stand out among its peers on the comic rack. Written by Brian Wood Illustrated by Kristian Donaldson, Garry […]
