By Brian Salvatore | Aug 31, 2012 | Columns

On August 31, 2011, DC Comics published “Justice League” #1, the first of the “New 52,” a publishing initiative that would re-cast the DC Universe in a more streamlined, approachable way, targeted at new fans and lapsed fans alike.

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 31, 2012 | Columns

To go along with our interview earlier with Christian Ward, we have for you a Work In Progress breakdown by Ward himself, as he gives Multiversity readers their first look at the anticipated finale of “Infinite Vacation.” It’s been a while since we’ve seen “IV,” but you can be sure with a layout like this […]

Artist August: Ramon Villalobos [Art Feature]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 30, 2012 | Columns

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so here’s 12000 words on why Ramon Villalobos is great. Honestly, not much more has to be said here. Ramon has a fantastic grasp of the clean line style popularized by guys like Geof Darrow and Frank Quitely, and anyone who has seen his work in […]

Artist August: Rob Wilson IV [Art Feature]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 30, 2012 | Columns

Get GetGlue (Week of 8/29/2012)

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 29, 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 […]

Art of the Week (Week of 8/29/2012)

By Gilbert Short | Aug 29, 2012 | Columns

Psylocke by Bryan Lee O’Malley This week’s Art Feature is something special. This week’s featured piece is from the ever-popular Canadian Powerhouse Bryan Lee O’Malley, who just so happens to have created something that went on to become a little art house flick in Scott Pilgrim vs. the World! “Scott Pilgrim” happens to be one […]

Comics Should Be Cheap! (8/29/2012)

By Walt Richardson | Aug 28, 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 […]

Off the Cape: Reset

By Nathanial Perkins | Aug 27, 2012 | Columns

Nobody is perfect. We all screw up from time to time. Sometimes, we screw up so bad we wish we could just hit a reset button and try things over again, this time without making the same mistakes. In Peter Bagge’s “Reset,” from Dark Horse, failed comedian and alleged wife-beater Guy Krause is given a […]

Tradewaiter: The Grendel Omnibus Volume 1 – Hunter Rose

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 27, 2012 | Columns

Sometimes you really like a creator and want to check out his various work, but don’t always have access to it. Sometimes you hear so much about one series, but no one can give you a firm grasp of which trade or hardcover to pick up in order to enjoy the series in the proper […]

The Weekend Week In Review (8/22/2012)

The Weekend Week In Review aims to give you ((usually) very) brief synopses of what happened in a select few of DC and Marvel’s […]

Friday Recommendation: Transmetropolitan

By Walt Richardson | Aug 24, 2012 | Columns

Nearly every comic creator, no matter how diverse their output, has a work that the comics-reading public has labeled as their defining work; maybe not their best, but the one that readers associate as the most indicative of that creator’s style. For Grant Morrison, it’s “The Invisibles,” for Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips it’s “Criminal,” […]

Soliciting Multiversity: DC’s November 2012

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 22, 2012 | Columns

With Marvel NOW! launching at the house of ideas, DC is doing some world-building, playing some recreational sports, and dropping ends of miniseries for some reason. A Thankful End to Nite Owl “Before Watchmen” has been an interesting experiment in bad ideas done both well and poorly. But, hands down, the worst has been “Nite […]

Strange Love – Part 3

By Jeremy Holt | Aug 22, 2012 | Columns

Meeting an editor for the first time, I had absolutely zero expectations. Well, maybe one: I wasn’t prepared for such a casual atmosphere. She wasn’t wearing fancy business attire, nor were we on a double digit floor of a large corporate building, in an office that overlooked some impressive cityscape. The reality was that I […]

By Gilbert Short | Aug 22, 2012 | Columns

Off the Cape: What Am I Going To Do Without You?

By Nathanial Perkins | Aug 21, 2012 | Columns

This week, we’re going to take a look at Patt Kelley’s “What Am I Going To Do Without You?” It’s Patt Kelley’s first full-length solo book, so it’s a little rough around the edges, but there is a lot of talent here–especially for storytelling. At 125 pages, written, drawn, inked and watercolored (in greys) all […]

Soliciting Multiversity: Dark Horse’s November 2012

By Nathanial Perkins | Aug 20, 2012 | Columns

Summer is almost over, which means the last of the fall solicits are in! That’s right, it’s time once again for Soliciting Multiversity, which means I get to kick it off with my favorite publisher: Dark Horse! There is a lot of good stuff coming out from Dark Horse these days, and I can’t highlight […]
