Friday Recommendation: Geoff Johns’ Morlocks

By | Jul 9, 2010 | Columns

Remember a time waaaayyyyy back in the day (AKA all of the 90s and most of the early 00s), when Marvel used their mutant line as a flimsy allegory for every single minority struggle in the world? Of course this recurring theme ended when mutants became an endangered species and their motive shifted to “survival […]

Burpee’s Got You Covered!

By | Jul 5, 2010 | Columns

Welcome to another Burpee’s Got You Covered. It’s a 4th of July edition that has nothing to do with the 4th of July. That’s alright though as we have some excellent covers this week that aren’t quite as resounding as fireworks but all the same are rather brilliant. So click the jump and let’s see […]

Friday Recommendation: Wonder Woman

By | Jul 2, 2010 | Columns

Wonder Woman’s recent costume change has sparked a lot of controversy, getting exposure on news sites such as FOX, The Washington Post, The Guardian and much more. The more I read through the comments on these various articles, the more I realize: most of the people who are making a big deal out of this […]

Zuda Weekly: The Final Countdown

By | Jul 1, 2010 | Columns

Since I started writing for Multiversity, perhaps my favorite running article I came up with was Zuda Weekly. This column would find me talking with various Zuda creators, recent winners, and reviewing all of their monthly competitors. Not only was it a lot of fun, but it was also exciting to see the fresh voices […]

LCBS Spotlight: Laughing Ogre Comics

By | Jun 29, 2010 | Columns

Located in Lansdowne, Virginia (not quite Ashburn yet not quite Leesburg), Laughing Ogre Comics is in an excellent spot to do business. Located right off of the ever-busy Route 7, Laughing Ogre is only a minor detour away for those many commuters that use the route, and I have seen firsthand the incredible amounts of […]

Small Press Spotlight: Market Day

By | Jun 29, 2010 | Columns

We’re back with our weekly Small Press Spotlight series, with this week’s title not necessarily fitting the word “Small Press” as well as some in the past have, but fitting into the niche of what I’m trying to do with this post (which is share smaller, non-superhero books with our audience). This week’s book is […]

Burpee’s Got You Covered!

By | Jun 27, 2010 | Columns

After taking Father’s Day off i’m back! This weeks list surprisingly is lacking two factors fairly consistent with this list. There are no Marvel covers and none of the usuals make a trip to awesome cover town. Instead we get some titles who don’t normally appear. So without the usuals what do we have? Check […]

Does DC Comics Hate Cats?

By | Jun 26, 2010 | Columns

If there’s one thing I’ve noticed a lot lately, it’s that a lot of people are sort of creating a witch hunt on DC. Due to certain deaths and actions taken in various different comics, people are now taking to calling out DC by the dozen on all different sorts of things, such as racism […]

Digital Comics and YOU!

By | Jun 25, 2010 | Columns

Almost since the first hushed mention that Apple was working on what was to become the company’s newest “magic” (read: “hot for a minute then mostly forgotten once the new iPhone hit”) product, the comics community began to wonder what kind of effect the iPad would have on the medium they loved so dear (read: […]

Friday Recommendation: Midnight Nation

By | Jun 25, 2010 | Columns

J. Michael Straczynski and Gary Frank: two of my favorite creators in the world. I think JMS has a talent for telling some great stories, and if you’ve been reading this site for any amount of time, you know that Frank is my favorite artist at the moment, and probably my favorite Superman artist of […]

By | Jun 22, 2010 | Columns

Article originally written by Jasmine Hall Welcome to the first installment of Capes and Corsets: Another Perspective. This will hopefully be a weekly or bi-weekly installment of women-centric titles where I give a more female perspective then the other reviewers. This article will offer WHY and WHY-NOT you should buy a specific title. First up […]

Friday Recommendation: Scalped

By | Jun 18, 2010 | Columns

When selecting Friday Recommendations, I generally try to stick to books that haven’t already earned a lot of praise or forgotten books. It just feels right that way – to heap accolades upon something that has gone unnoticed previously. Jason Aaron and R.M. Guera’s Scalped is not one of those books. It is a critically […]

Burpee’s Got You Covered!

By | Jun 13, 2010 | Columns

This week provided some pretty sweet covers. Last week, one cover dominated the list. This week we have an assortment and it’s a larger list than usual. This week has no ranking of awesomeness. This week I just want to share some of my favorite covers from the week. So if you’re into that kind […]
