Off the Cape: North 40

By | Jul 26, 2011 | Columns

Two things came out of San Diego Comic Con that made the rounds quickly as buzzed about happenings: first off, the announcement of a new Brian K. Vaughan book in Image Comics’ SAGA (say it with me: YES!!!!) and second off, the Batgirl vs. DC panel controversy centered around DC’s perceived under representation of the […]

Comics Should Be Cheap! (7/27/2011)

By | Jul 26, 2011 | 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 […]

Fund It!: The History of the DCnU

By | Jul 20, 2011 | Columns

I have a strange relationship with continuity. Primarily, I prefer for stories to be stand-alone enough that if you pick up a series from #1, you’ll have all that you need. However, if a setting has extensive continuity, I do like for it to match up well enough that you can form a reading order […]

Off The Cape: James Stokoe’s Orc Stain

By | Jul 19, 2011 | Columns

Comics are such a fun place. They really are. Given that comics are still described as a niche medium, it’s safe to say that a lot of people are missing out due to stigmas about the entire medium; specifically that every comic worth reading probably has a cape or tight in it, and every “indie” […]

Burpee’s Got You Covered!

By | Jul 17, 2011 | Columns

So this week is a smaller version of the column than we’ve had in quite awhile. The reason being that I just wasn’t impressed by much of what hit the stands this week. Sure there was some neat stuff but nothing really blew my mind. As a result I have one cover to share with […]

Fund It!: The Illuminati

By | Jul 13, 2011 | Columns

I may be in the minority, but I love Marvel’s Illuminati. There’s something that I find cool about a group of Marvel’s best running things behind the scenes. That being said, the group has never really reached the heights that I can see them getting to. You know who could bring them there, though? Jonathan […]

Off the Cape: God Hates Astronauts

By | Jul 12, 2011 | Columns

On this week’s Off the Cape, I cheat. This comic features capes, but I can promise you, Ryan Browne’s webcomic God Hates Astronauts stars superheroes quite unlike any you’ve ever seen. I was going to describe it, but that truly won’t do it justice. I’ll let Browne’s Twitter page do that for me. The worlds […]

Crossed-Out Crossovers: Secret War

By | Jul 8, 2011 | Columns

Continuing my entropic decline into navel-gazing about the pointlessness of superhero events. More rambling after the jump. The past couple weeks, I’ve written about crossovers that were forgotten for one common key reason: no one really cared about them to start with. If you sat around in 1995 going “Gosh, I can’t wait for The […]

Friday Recommendation: Filmish

By | Jul 8, 2011 | Columns

Let’s take a break from superheroes and violence this week and go to the movies, hmmm? More after the jump. Last year, I attended the Edinburgh International Film Festival — the one in Scotland — and in the lobby of the Filmhouse, the theater acting as central hub, they had a couple little racks set […]

Off The Cape: De:TALES

By | Jul 5, 2011 | Columns

Last year, I’m sure you must have heard of a pair of brothers by the name Gabriel Ba and Fabio Moon. You really should have if you didn’t. Why? Because last year, the duo came out with the phenomenal Daytripper, a meditation on stories, life and death that absolutely blew away critics everywhere (ourselves included). […]
