By James Johnston | Dec 5, 2012 | Columns

Welcome back to Boomb Tube! This week, we continue our analysis of the TV pilot for 1997’s Justice League of America. Abandon all hope ye who enter here. To recap last week: New Metro, the most stupidly named city in the world, is threatened by a super villain named The Weatherman (AKA EvAl Roker) who is manipulating the weather, […]

Multiversity Comics Countdown: One Writer’s Five Favorite Vertigo Titles

By David Harper | Dec 4, 2012 | Columns

This Countdown had been on the agenda for a bit, but no time feels better now with Karen Berger, the person in the driver’s seat of Vertigo for its entire existence, stepping down as Executive Editor and Senior VP. Today, I’m going to highlight my five favorite Vertigo titles of all-time, which is a difficult […]

Kickstarter Spotlight: Axe Cop Doc

By Walt Richardson | Dec 4, 2012 | Columns

Odds are likely that at this point, you’ve heard of the wild success story that is Ethan and Malachai Nicolle’s Axe Cop, but for a moment, let’s pretend you haven’t. Have you ever sat down and actually listened to a kid make up a story? Children don’t have the same filters that we do — […]

Comics Should Be Cheap (12/5/2012)

By Walt Richardson | Dec 4, 2012 | 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 […]

This Month in Comics: November 2012

By Vince Ostrowski | Dec 3, 2012 | Columns

November was a booming month for comics, if you ask me. Marvel NOW! kicked off in earnest and contained a bunch of stellar opening issues, with only 1-2 exceptions to that. Image did what they did and released a bunch of solid-to-great #1’s and DC Comics at least had some fine issues of their “Death […]

Tradewaiter: Simon Dark Volume 1 – What Simon Does

By Drew Bradley | Dec 3, 2012 | Columns

Steve Niles is well known for “30 Days of Night,” and rightly so. He is less well known for “Simon Dark”, a short-lived series from 2008 which centers around dark magic and demons. It also stands out for being set in Gotham, and in a year-and-a-half run never guest stars any member of the Bat-family. […]

Art of the Week: Week of 11/28/12

By David Harper | Nov 30, 2012 | Columns

This week’s Art of the Week is running a little late, but it’s been a busy week in the MC offices as we prep for our 2012 in Review segments (which are starting next week). This week on Art of the Week, I cheat a little bit so I can highlight this splendid “Sweet Tooth” […]

Friday Recommendation: B.P.R.D. The Black Flame

By Brian Salvatore | Nov 30, 2012 | Columns

There are certain pieces of media that hit you at the right time and the right place, whether it’s that song that becomes the soundtrack of a summer, or the film that kicks you in the gut because it so clearly reflects where you are at that point in your life. To say that “B.P.R.D.” […]

Strange Love – Part 10

By Jeremy Holt | Nov 30, 2012 | Columns

How we were first introduced will be lost to the sands of time, but there I was having breakfast with her one brisk Sunday morning in Oakland, California. I had decided to attend ImageExpo on a whim, which happened to be celebrating 20 years of Image Comics, and she mentioned that she was also going. […]

Boomb Tube: Justice League of America (Part 1)

By James Johnston | Nov 28, 2012 | Columns

Welcome back to Boomb Tube! As the hiatus between seasons of cartoons continues, I’ve started reviewing TV shows from the past. This week, we take a fond look back at the Justice League show! No, not the cartoon one; the live-action TV movie starring Guy Gardner, Fire, Ice, The Flash, and, in his feature debut, […]

Multiversity Keeps It Real: Feynman

By Michelle White | Nov 27, 2012 | Columns

The trouble with writing any feature on non-fiction comics is that it risks becoming a Jim Ottaviani column pretty fast. The man has written so many wonderful comics — chiefly about scientists and their discoveries — that his work could easily dominate any discussion of comics as historical or scientific teaching tools. And so, taking […]

Kickstarter Spotlight: To Be Or Not To Be: That Is The Adventure

By Walt Richardson | Nov 27, 2012 | Columns

Of all the writers in the English language, there is perhaps no one as famous as the late William Shakespeare. Whether or not you actually care for his work (personally, I am a big fan), one has to admit that his fame eclipses every other writer in our tongue. Dickens was a fad. Twain was […]

Multiversity Comics Countdown: The Five Best B.P.R.D. Minis

By David Harper | Nov 27, 2012 | Columns

Now that we’re fully in the era of B.P.R.D. actually being an ongoing series, we’ve taken a second to reflect upon those books that preceded it. The mini-series that comprised the initial 99 issues of B.P.R.D.’s life featured incredible work from a bevy of creators, but none more so than Mike Mignola, John Arcudi and […]

Reboot Nation: Blue Beetle #1 (2006) vs (2011)

By Drew Bradley | Nov 27, 2012 | Columns

The next round of New 52 cancellations includes the eight volume of “Blue Beetle,” so it seems like a perfect time to compare the two titles which have starred Jamie Reyes as the azure arthropod. Blue Beetle #1 (2006) Written by Kieth Giffen & John Rogers / Illustrated by Cully Hamner From the pages of […]

Multiversity’s Got You Covered: Week of 11/21/12

By David Harper | Nov 26, 2012 | Columns

On this week’s delayed edition of Multiversity’s Got You Covered, we go Vertigo heavy at the top and highlight some really, really top notch work from an array of the best in the business. Oh, and one Marvel book makes it. 5. Mind the Gap #6 Art by Rodin Esquejo I really enjoy this cover […]
