Strange Love – Part 7

By | Oct 18, 2012 | Columns

The coffee was hot and black, just the way I liked it. I didn’t know what time it was, but I didn’t care. The night had taken me to a point of no return. Every loose idea that was drifting in my mind, I furiously snatched up as I scribbled everything down into my notebook. […]

Get GetGlue (Week of 10/17/2012)

By | Oct 17, 2012 | Columns

We don’t know about the rest of you, but we’re a bit addicted to GetGlue. If you haven’t checked it out before, it’s a silly thing, really: you check in to what you are watching, playing or reading and are rewarded a sticker for it. When you get a certain number of stickers, once a […]

Off the Cape: Spaceman

By | Oct 17, 2012 | Columns

I am the first one to admit a personal bias for science fiction (I blame “Star Wars” and Isaac Asimov).  Therefore, I can understand your doubts when I say that the miniseries “Spaceman” is Brian Azzarello’s greatest work yet.  Sure, “100 Bullets” sold a lot more copies, but it had trouble maintaining its early momentum […]

Comics Should Be Cheap! (10/17/2012)

By | Oct 16, 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 […]

Tradewaiter: Saga Volume 1

By | Oct 15, 2012 | Columns

Saga was a book I was highly anticipating. I’ve been a fan of Vaughan’s previous work, and the covers and previews I saw from Staples looked promising. I avoided early spoilers, but the reviews were all positive. Now I’ve read it, and I find myself a lone voice of dissent. Written by Brian K Vaughan […]

Friday Recommendation: Lucifer

By | Oct 5, 2012 | Columns

Let me talk to you about the Devil. Or, well, one of the various literary interpretations of the character. In the late 80s and early 90s, Neil Gaiman featured Lucifer in a few stories of his hit series “The Sandman.” Gaiman’s take on Lucifer was very much inspired by the tragic role in Milton’s Paradise […]
