LCBS Spotlight: The Million Year Picnic

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 10, 2010 | Columns

Massachusetts is famous for many things, but one of the top things we have going for us here is our education system. Specifically, we have some of the top post-high school schools in the country. One of our schools is rather famous – in fact, maybe you’ve heard of it: Harvard University. Of course you’ve […]

Multiversity Casting Couch: Joe The Barbarian

By Jess Graham and Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 9, 2010 | Columns

Recently, Grant Morrison and Sean Murphy’s Joe the Barbarian was optioned for a film. The story, which is about a young boy suffering from insulin withdrawl, begins drifting between his reality and a fantasy world in which he is a mythical figure known as “the Dying Boy.” Charged with the task of restoring the light, […]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 7, 2010 | Columns

This week for The Friday Rec, I’m going to tell you just why the title Hotwire is for you. Do you like sassy chicks? Of course you do. Do you like gorgeous art? I know that’s right. Do you like Warren Ellis? Oh yeah! Follow the cut for more gushing. From the mind of Warren […]

Comics Should Be Cheap! (7/4/10)

By David Harper | Aug 4, 2010 | Columns

Five writers…twenty dollars…tons of comics to choose from. That’s the problem faced in our weekly column Comics Should Be Good, and this week is another tough one with a bevy of solid titles to choose from. With comics getting more and more expensive, use this column as a good go-to resource on what books are […]

LCBS Spotlight: Comicazi

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 3, 2010 | Columns

I haven’t done one of these in a while, but I recently made a list of comic stores that I’ve been to that I never reviewed, so look for more LCBS Spotlights spanning the East Coast in the coming weeks!! I’m a simple man who likes simple things. Honestly (ok, maybe not so honestly). Every […]

Off The Cape: 12 Reasons Why I Love Her

By David Harper | Aug 3, 2010 | Columns

Recently, I came to a realization about our weekly feature “Small Press Spotlight” and about what my true intentions were about it. The intent wasn’t necessarily to spotlight books that with Small Press origins as much as wanting to guide superhero centric readers towards books that are a little bit different. With that in mind, […]

Multiversity Comics Countdown: Top Five X-Overs

By David Harper | Aug 3, 2010 | Columns

Welcome to our new weekly feature – Multiversity Comics Countdown – in which we’ll list some of our favorites, least favorites, and beyond every week for your reading pleasure. For the first edition, I knew immediately what would be the perfect topic. With Second Coming culminating with the recent X-Men: Second Coming #2, we saw […]

This Month in Comics: A Wrap-Up of the Best and Worst of July

By Brandon Burpee | Aug 2, 2010 | Columns

This month is mine! It’s my turn to thumb through the pages of the books I’ve read this month and report back to you what was worth my time and what made my eyes roll so far into the back of my head that I could see my brain stem. So sit back get a […]

Burpee’s Got You Covered!

By Brandon Burpee | Aug 1, 2010 | Columns

Another week where there weren’t a lot to choose from in my opinion but the #1 this week is one of the best covers to hit the shelves in some time ladies and gents. Who’s the artist? What’s the title? Why don’t you quit asking questions and step into my parlor to find out? Oh […]

Saturday Recommendation: Mondo Urbano

By David Harper | Jul 31, 2010 | Columns

2010 has so far been a year filled with hotly anticipated titles, but for me, Oni’s Mondo Urbano may have been the one that excited me the most. Created by one of my favorite artists in Rafael Albuquerque along with his collaborators and countrymen Mateus Santolouco and Eduardo Medeiros, this book fancied itself a “sex, drugs […]

Multiversity Casting Couch: S.W.O.R.D.

By Gilbert Short | Jul 31, 2010 | Columns

We all L.O.V.E.D. S.W.O.R.D. Why is “love” an acronym? For effect really; but the book was one of our favorites, and we all lamented its demise. It sort of had the same life as a show on FOX. Great concept, brilliant execution, and a rabid cult following. But that cult following didn’t blossom as well […]

Comics Should Be Cheap! (Week of 7/28/10)

By David Harper | Jul 28, 2010 | Columns

We’re back with another week of Comics Should Be Cheap!, our weekly column in which each of our writers select the books they would read if they only had $20 to buy all of their comics. Given that each of us spend more than that because we’re hooked on comics like Mel Gibson is hooked […]

Multiversity’s Best and Worst of SDCC

By Walt Richardson | Jul 27, 2010 | Columns

San-Diego Comic Con is the place to be for some of the biggest announcements regarding the comic industry, and even more not so big ones. We all have that project we want to hear more about, or the future of the characters we love, and with so many announcements you can bet that everyone has […]

Burpee’s Got You Covered!

By Brandon Burpee | Jul 25, 2010 | Columns

Not a lot of covers that I really loved this week. There are two though that I enjoyed more than the rest. One is from a regular on this list and the other is from a title and artist yet to have been seen here. Both though I feel are solid covers. So check it […]

Comics Should Be Cheap! (Week of 7/21/10)

By David Harper | Jul 21, 2010 | Columns

As we’ve talked about a lot of times on Multiversity, the world of comics is becoming an increasingly expensive one. With regular issues reaching $3.99 regularly now, your dollar is going less far with each passing week. But that doesn’t mean you still can’t get enjoyment out of the world of comics. Sure, you may […]

By Brandon Burpee | Jul 20, 2010 | Columns

It’s time for another look at the future of comics. This time around we take a look at the works to be released September 2010 and I share with you the things I am most excited to pick up that month. Then when September actually is over I will take a look back at these […]

Scott Pilgrim in Panels

By David Harper | Jul 20, 2010 | Columns

Today marks the release of the final Scott Pilgrim book from Bryan Lee O’Malley, as (non-Alaskans) bask in the glory of Scott Pilgrim’s Finest Hour. With such a momentous occasion coming, and one that is met with a mix of glee and sadness, it only made sense for me to look throughout the series and […]

Sunday Showdown: The Harvey Off

By David Harper and Matthew Meylikhov | Jul 18, 2010 | Columns

This past week saw the announcement of the 2010 Harvey Award nominations, and with any sort of award nominations you both get analysis of the nominees as well as talk about who didn’t make it that should have made it. The Harvey Awards are no different, and to discuss these nominations we’ve got myself and […]

Friday Recommendation: DMZ

By Matthew Meylikhov | Jul 16, 2010 | Columns

It seems that between David and I, we love recommending Vertigo books. We also love talking about the books in our free time. Lately, I decided that I wanted to start up a new book that I hadn’t read before. It was between two books – the previously recommended Scalped or DMZ. Both were by […]

Burpee’s Got You Covered!

By Brandon Burpee | Jul 11, 2010 | Columns

While the books were really good this week I found the covers to be less appealing. Though I was able to easily choose three covers that I felt stood up the rest this week. Some old favorites grace this list as some of the industries elite dominate this list. Who do we have? Check it […]
