Off the Cape: RASL

By Nathanial Perkins | Jul 11, 2012 | Columns

Welcome to the reboot edition of Multiversity’s weekly column, Off the Cape! In American comics, superhero titles get a lot of attention, and rightly so. Many of the best and most influential comics in America were written in the superhero genre. However, there have also been many great comics without superpowers and costumes, and the […]

Hype Machine: Wild Children

By Matthew Meylikhov | Jul 10, 2012 | Columns

This week’s Comics Should Be Cheap was pretty hard to do, all things considered. One of my favorite comics of the year came out (“Enormous”!), taking up the majority of my $20 and leaving me space for but two $3.99 books. I mean, it’s a good thing when $20 can’t even remotely allow you to […]

Comics Should Be Cheap! (7/11/2012)

By Walt Richardson | Jul 10, 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 […]

Want to keep up with the ever-advancing continuity porn of the DC and Marvel universes, but simply don’t have the time or money to buy every ongoing? We’re here to help. 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: Jamie Delano’s “Hellblazer”

By Walt Richardson | Jul 6, 2012 | Columns

It has been over a year since I recommended Alan Moore’s “Swamp Thing” in this very column. Surely, by this point all of our readers have acquired and read every volume of this amazing run by now, right? I thought so. Even if you haven’t, though, odds are pretty high that you have heard of […]

Get GetGlue (Week of 5/4/12)

By Matthew Meylikhov | Jul 4, 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 […]

Multiversity NOW! Quick Reactions To Marvel’s Relaunch

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 4, 2012 | Columns

The slogan of this site is “by people who love comics for people who love comics,” and we take that pretty seriously. We are fans, just like anyone with a pull list or is on a first name basis with the clerk at their local store. And so, when the details of “Marvel NOW!” began […]

This Month in Comics: June 2012

By David Harper | Jul 3, 2012 | Columns

I might be one of the few that thinks this, but it seems to me that comics are on a bit of a two month slide. After a weak May, I found June to be an even bigger disappointment. Such is life though, and I do want to note one thing before I get started […]

Welcome to the first edition of a new monthly column here at Multiversity Comics, which we like to call Technodrome Transmissions!* It’ll be the place to be to talk IDW’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Our hope and my own personal hope is to make this column THE destination for fans of the IDW comic series. […]

Friday Recommendation: Glory

By Gilbert Short | Jun 29, 2012 | Columns

Glory, a character created by Rob Liefeld in the 90’s never really got her time to shine. She ran for 22 issues before the imprint all but completely ceased operation. Only, a few months ago, Liedeld and Image brought back all of his creations to comic shops. “Glory” was one of the first, and it […]

The Chronicles of Shazam, Volume 2

By Brian Salvatore | Jun 29, 2012 | Columns

Another month, another peak into the Shazam backup in “Justice League!” This month, two familiar characters get their proper introduction, we get to see Dr. Sivana use his magic eye (no, not that kind), and we see a friendship forming between Billy and Freddy. Geoff Johns has chosen to go down an interesting road with […]

Multiversity’s Got You Covered: Week of 6/27/12

By David Harper | Jun 29, 2012 | Columns

It’s time for another edition of Got You Covered, as I break down the best of the week in comic covers. Overall, it was kind of so so week in covers, as it was in comics themselves. That said, here are five great examples of the comic form. Look for the best covers of the […]

Creator-Owned Showcase: White Devil

By Jeffrey Shain | Jun 26, 2012 | Columns

In my last installment of “Creator-Owned Showcase” I addressed the importance of strong character development. This week we focus on the often over-looked and under-appreciated discipline of comic book lettering, captioning and ballooning. Make no mistake, lettering is an art form and arguably the most important component of comic book storytelling. Any creator who fails to […]

Hype Machine: Debris

By Matthew Meylikhov | Jun 26, 2012 | Columns

For this week’s edition of Hype Machine, I’d like to tell you all about a little book I had a chance to read over the weekend called “Debris.” It’s a comic I’ve been pretty darn excited about back when its name might not have been “Debris” at all, and I was not let down at […]
