Comics Should Be Cheap! (7/6/2011)

By Walt Richardson | Jul 5, 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 […]

Burpee’s Got You Covered!

By Brandon Burpee | Jul 3, 2011 | Columns

Happy 4th of July! Well, to all of those reading here in the states anyway. While this won’t be a 4th of July themed edition of Burpee’s Got You Covered there will be some awesome covers. Not only will this edition have my picks, but we also have a pick from Matt as well. It’s […]

The Weekend Week In Review (7/2/2011)

By Walt Richardson | Jul 2, 2011 | Columns

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 […]

Crossed-Out Crossovers: Witchblade / Wolverine

By Patrick Tobin | Jul 1, 2011 | Columns

Hey, did you know that Wolverine and Witchblade are married? No, really. After the jump. There are, broadly speaking, two kinds of inter-company crossover stories. One belabors the point of “two universes colliding!” by giving an involved reason for why Characters X and Y are suddenly sharing the same space. (Kurt Busiek had a good […]

This Month in Comics: June 2011

By Joshua Mocle | Jul 1, 2011 | Columns

June was a month chock full of tie-ins, deaths, events that will “change everything”, promotional buttons and more deaths. It was also one of the longest months of my recent life and comics helped me get through it a little more than they usually do. That said, you’ll notice a few staple TMIC categories missing, […]

Friday Recommendation – The Other Side

By Joshua Mocle | Jul 1, 2011 | Columns

Whatever it is that your outside perspective thinks this book is about, you’re probably wrong. Whatever slant you derive from it’s description, or axe you perceive it to grind is most likely off the mark in a monumental way. The Other Side marks Jason Aaron’s formal debut into the world of comics (other than an […]

Fund It!: Captain America… Noir?

By Walt Richardson | Jun 29, 2011 | Columns

A couple of years ago, Marvel began their Noir line, re-imagining their classic characters in a gritty portrayal of the 1930s and 1940s. While not all of them were great, I think they all qualified as a fun “what if?” kind of diversion. Yet, there’s one iconic Marvel hero that didn’t make the transition that […]

Off the Cape: The Sixth Gun

By David Harper | Jun 28, 2011 | Columns

This week on Off the Cape, we have a look at Cullen Bunn and Brian Hurtt’s increasingly popular but deserving of more love supernatural western thriller The Sixth Gun (say that sentence ten times fast). This Oni Press book started off strongly with an arc that, in many ways, felt like it told the primary […]

Welcome back to your new favorite column. Or maybe it’s your old column. Or maybe you’ve never even heard of this column before. Hello. Welcome! This is the column where I look at covers and pick the top ones of the week, count them down, and tell you what’s so great about them. Intrigued? Well, […]

Friday Recommendation: Wagner and Francavilla’s Zorro

By Walt Richardson | Jun 24, 2011 | Columns

The current run on Detective Comics was my first exposure to artist Francesco Francavilla. After being completely blown away by his work on the Gordon-centric issues, I was determined to find more of the man’s output, and eventually stumbled across a series by him and industry legend Matt Wagner called Zorro from Dynamite about – […]

Crossed-Out Crossovers: The Siege of the Zi Charam

By Patrick Tobin | Jun 23, 2011 | Columns

I’m the only person in the comics-blogging universe who’s yet to see Green Lantern. Instead, I read some comics with Kyle Rayner in them. I’m not sure which would have made my attention drift further, but you can judge for yourself after the jump. Looking back through the history of time itself, I noticed something […]

Off The Cape: The Tooth

By Matthew Meylikhov | Jun 21, 2011 | Columns

After last week’s themed extravaganza, some of you probably feared that Off the Cape might falter and not give you some of the best non-cape related titles on the market. However, I am here to help put your fears at ease. In today’s installment, I’ll be looking at a recent release from the Oni camp. […]

Burrpee’s Got DCnU Covered!

By Brandon Burpee | Jun 19, 2011 | Columns

In keeping with the DCnU motif of the week here at Multiviersity, I will not be looking at the best covers of the week but instead I will be looking at the best and worst of the DCnU preview images. These preview images, like covers on the racks, are the first line of offense in […]

Friday Recommendation: Multiversity vs the DCnU

By Matthew Meylikhov | Jun 17, 2011 | Columns

As Multiversity vs the DCnU week comes to a close, we’ve decided to end up with a fond look at the past as we welcome the inevitable future. This week’s Friday Rec features the entire Multiversity staff looking at their shelves and long boxes and deciding definitively what their favorite DC story is. While some […]

Multiversity vs The DCnU: A Look at the Superman Titles

By Matthew Meylikhov | Jun 17, 2011 | Columns

Originally this task was delegated to Gil, our resident Superman fan. However, due to complications beyond his control, you readers are going to have to deal with the second biggest fan: me. I apologize in advance if I don’t do it the same justice he would’ve. Either way, in the last installment of our solicit […]

Multiversity vs the DCnU: Too Many Titles?

By Walt Richardson | Jun 16, 2011 | Columns

I’d like to go ahead and say that I am one hundred percent behind the idea of the DC relaunch. Really, it’s a great idea, and I hope it succeeds. That being said, there are more than a few things about the relaunch that are causing me to raise an eyebrow out of wariness. Chief […]

Multiversity vs The DCnU: A Look at the Supernatural Titles

To say that this sub-group of the DCnU Relaunch is the one that excites me the most would be a massive understatement. Some of my all time favorite creators combining to tackle some of the most intriguing members of the DC Canon? If I don’t end up trying out at least the debut issues of […]
