Tradewaiter: Severed

By Drew Bradley | Aug 20, 2012 | Columns

When this horror comic was being printed monthly, it took effort to resist every issue. I could tell by its reception Scott Snyder, Scott Tuft, and Attila Futaki were crafting a story I’d want to read in full and repeatedly, so I buckled down and forced my self to trade wait. Or hardcover wait, as […]

Friday Recommendation: The Invisibles

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 17, 2012 | Columns

Artist August: Robbi Rodriguez [Art Feature]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 16, 2012 | Columns

To wrap up today’s entry into Artist August, we bring you the Art Feature on Robbi Rodriguez. We’re big fans of Robbi’s artwork and his kinetic style, as his artwork really actively captures the liveliness of motion a lot of still imagery often doesn’t. Robbi’s art both has a classic feel and one that is […]

Get GetGlue (Week of 8/15/2012)

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 15, 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 […]

Comics Should Be Cheap! (8/15/2012)

By Walt Richardson | Aug 14, 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: Wild Children

By Nathanial Perkins | Aug 13, 2012 | Columns

“Did you ever think about how the comics in your home are just like ecosystems at different depths?” This is just one of the many questions posed by Ales Kot and Riley Rossmo’s “Wild Children,” a comics novella that aims to be a lot more than just a temporary escape into fantastical worlds of capes […]

Tradewaiter: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures Volume 1

By Drew Bradley | Aug 13, 2012 | Columns

My first comic was TMNTA #38, when I was seven years old. I followed the series as regularly as I could until its cancellation at number 72. IDW is reprinting that old series, so let’s see how it stacks up to my nostalgia. Written by: Dave Garcia, Beth Mitchroney, Ken Mitchroney, Christy Marx, David Wise, […]

Friday Recommendation: Black Hole

By Michelle White | Aug 10, 2012 | Columns

It’s so hard to know where to start, when you’re talking about a book like “Black Hole”. Charles Burns’s opus has garnered enough of a following in its collected form that you’ll find it on a lot of top ten lists, and yet it still manages to be a slightly obscure title, something that maybe […]

Artist August: Joshua Luna [Art Feature]

One half of the famous Luna Brothers duo, Joshua Luna has recently taken up the pen himself to write and illustrate his own mini with “Whispers,” having previously been the writing half of the team. Yet despite his proven talent as a writer, Joshua is a fantastic artist as well. Bringing a somber tone to […]

Buffyversity: “Angel & Faith” #12 and “Buffy Season Nine” #12

By Gilbert Short | Aug 9, 2012 | Columns

After some time off, we’re back with some analysis of the Buffyverse! After you’ve read your copy, come check out our thoughts on “Angel & Faith” #12 and “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” #12! It’s actually rather convenient that I tackle both issues at once because it seems these two books are heavily hinting toward the […]

Artist August: Simone Guglielmini [Art Feature]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 9, 2012 | Columns

Today we featured an interview with “Near Death” artist Simone Guglielmini, and now it’s time to show off why we love his work in the first place. While picking up any issue of “Near Death” would assuredly prove the point for us, we pulled some choice pieces together to show you what makes Guglielmini stand […]

Multiversity Casting Couch: Ben Affleck’s Justice League

By Jess Graham | Aug 9, 2012 | Columns

Yesterday, we reported that Ben Affleck is supposedly be courted by DC Entertainment and Warner Bros for the Justice League feature film. At first we thought it was April Fool’s, but it turns out to be cropping up at numerous sources (of varying credibility, sure) to the point that we’re fine with taking it seriously […]

Strange Love – Part 2

By Jeremy Holt | Aug 7, 2012 | Columns

New York City was never a place I honestly considered moving to. If it wasn’t for all of my friends from college transplanting to a borough that the Beastie Boys claimed they’d forgo sleep for, I would have settled for a simpler life in Texas where my parents decided to retire. Having spent most of […]
