Friday Recommendation: Peter David’s Current Run of X-Factor

By Matthew Meylikhov | Jun 22, 2012 | Columns

No, I can’t believe we’ve never had a Friday Recommendation for this title either. Allow me a moment of self-indulgence, but this week saw the release of my new webcomic Detective Space Cat, something I’ve been toying with doing for at least a year and some odd months now. It’ll be silly, for sure, but […]

Alright: you’ve seen Image, Dark Horse and DC. Now it’s time for the September offerings from Marvel Comics.

David by Natalie Nourigat After a week off, we’e back! This week, we have some superhero related stuff, along with some great movie related pieces, so let’s get down to it! The above featured piece is of Michael Fassbender’s character in the Ridley Scott sci-fi epic Prometheus, saying basically what I thought happened in the […]

Soliciting Multiversity: DC’s September 2012

By Brian Salvatore | Jun 20, 2012 | Columns

One year after releasing 52 #1s, DC is releasing 55 #0s. With this one-month dismissal of 52ism, we get lots of ugly covers, some weird creative teams, and the end of a couple of minis. Goose Egg Month In baseball, when your opponent doesn’t score, it’s called “throwing up a goose egg,” because of the […]

Get GetGlue (Week of 6/20/12)

By Matthew Meylikhov | Jun 20, 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 […]

Hype Machine: The Underwater Welder

By Matthew Meylikhov | Jun 19, 2012 | Columns

With “Lost Dogs” out on shelves this week, part of me wanted to tell you all about the little graphic novel until I realized that I already did some time ago. It’s with this in mind that I decided to look once more into the future for a book shipping in August: Jeff Lemire’s “The […]

Comics Should Be Cheap! (6/20/2012)

By Walt Richardson | Jun 19, 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 […]

Friday Recommendations: Essential Black Panther Vol. 1

By Chad Bowers | Jun 15, 2012 | Columns

I catch a lot of hell for liking Marvel’s black and white Essentials collection. And, hey, I get it. Really I do. Without a doubt, the Essentials present a somewhat stripped down, augmented presentation of the original comics. And because of it, they ofttimes lack some of that amazing energy and vigor that made them […]

Multiversity’s Got You Covered: Week of 6/13/12

By David Harper | Jun 15, 2012 | Columns

MC’s Got You Covered is back in my hands, and we’ve got another exciting week of covers to get to. Let’s do that, shall we. 5. The Secret History #20 Art by Philippe “Manchu” Bouchet I love the look of the French school of cartooning, and the pose, vibe and general demeanor of this character […]

Hype Machine: Revival

By Matthew Meylikhov | Jun 12, 2012 | Columns

Back in April, we posted up a few preview pages to an upcoming Image book called “Revival.” Written by Tim Seeley and illustrated by Mike Norton, the “farm noir” book follows Dana Cypress, an officer in a small town in Wisconsin, as she deals with “media scrutiny, religious zealots and government quarantine.” Why? Simple: because […]

Creator-Owned Showcase: Binary Gray

By Jeffrey Shain | Jun 12, 2012 | Columns

The other day while rummaging through my garage for yard-sale worthy items I came across an old sketchbook of superhero concepts I kept as a kid. As the nostalgia washed over me, I reflected back on my childhood yearnings to become a comic book artist. I remember spending all of my hard-earned allowance on a […]
