C2E2 Highlights According to Burpee

By Matthew Meylikhov | Apr 17, 2010 | Columns

Here at Multiversity Comics we are a man down as David is off being an indy music hipster at this shindig called Coachella. On top of that it seems we are in Bizzaro World and I am the only one sober enough to post news regarding what we’ve learned coming out of the first day […]

Friday Recommendation: Jonathan Hickman’s Fantastic Four

By Gilbert Short | Apr 16, 2010 | Columns

Jonathan Hickman is a mad genius. I mean, who ever thought the Fantastic Four could be relevant again? More after the cut! Before he took over, The Fantastic Four had been largely unnoticed within the hierarchy of the Marvel Universe for years, taking the backseat to more easily franchise-able teams like the X-Men and The […]

Blackest Night: End of Death’s Revolving Door or Resurrection Empowerment?

By Brandon Burpee | Apr 15, 2010 | Columns

The death of characters to elicit emotional responses from readers is almost as old as the medium itself but over time it has become as clichÃ© as splash pages and variant covers. All had their place and still do at times, but have been overused to the point that their impact has been all but […]

Zuda Weekly: April Contenders

By David Harper | Apr 14, 2010 | Columns

This week on Zuda Weekly, we have a look at April’s contenders for the big prize of fame, fortune, and 60 more screens! Take a look after the jump for a breakdown of each and every contender, along with what my personal take is on each of them as well. A personal note: this is […]

Small Press Spotlight: Daisy Kutter: The Last Train

By David Harper | Apr 13, 2010 | Columns

Before I talk about the title I chose for this week, I feel like this would be a good time to refresh memories as to why we have the weekly Small Press Spotlight feature. While some of the books may verge on the older side (my pick last week was over a decade old), I […]

Hate Mail Vol. 1 Issue #5

By Joshua Mocle | Apr 13, 2010 | Columns

Wherein our hero nearly burns down South Boston Alright, in all honesty, this article can be summarized in three words: F*CK BOSTON COMIC-CON. (or is that four words?) If you’re looking for anything deeper from me this week, you are more than less SOL. I’ve been reading comics weekly for almost…let’s say 10 years now […]

Sunday Showdown: Eisner Choices

By David Harper and Walt Richardson | Apr 12, 2010 | Columns

Today we’re back with a delayed version of Saturday Showdown, now Sunday Showdown due my obsessive need for sociability and the horrors of alcohol consumption. On this week’s showdown, Walt and I go over all of the Eisner nominations and select who we think was the finest example in each category. In a year where […]

A Crisis of Chronology: Star Wars

By Walt Richardson | Apr 11, 2010 | Columns

Since childhood I’ve had a love of Star Wars, and I’m sure it is a love that will never go away. Today I bring you a slightly different column, wherein I highlight various series (certainly not all) spread out across the Star Wars timeline. Those series that need to be read in a specific order […]

Burpee’s Got You Covered!

By Brandon Burpee | Apr 11, 2010 | Columns

Welcome back to Burpee’s Got You Covered where I pick my favorite covers of the week. What is my criterion? Well to be honest, as you’ll see from this weeks list there is no criterion. As long as I dig it and it came out this week it’s super eligible. So let’s get the going […]

Friday Recommendation: Proposition Player

By David Harper | Apr 9, 2010 | Columns

As some of our long time readers may know (that is, if they’re really good at retaining knowledge and read our decade lists with a fine toothed comb), I stopped reading for a 2 or 3 years at the beginning of the 2000’s. When I returned, the first three books I picked up were Y […]

A Quick Look at the Eisner Nominations

By David Harper | Apr 8, 2010 | Columns

The 2010 Eisner Award nominations are out today, and there is a lot to love in there. While the full nominations are in Walt’s post, I wanted to share some particularly great choices and some surprises from the whole of the nominations from my point-of-view: Favorite Choices Fiona Staples wonderful work on the Wildstorm mini-series […]

Zuda Weekly: Night at the Western Interview

By David Harper | Apr 7, 2010 | Columns

Today on Zuda Weekly, I spoke with two of the three members of the winning creative team from March: Ray Nayler and Steven Finch. The two of them put together Night at the Western, a throwback noir that really captures the look and feel of one of the most frequently misunderstood genres out there. While […]

Small Press Spotlight: French Milk

By David Harper | Apr 6, 2010 | Columns

This week on our Small Press Spotlight series, I’m taking a look at Lucy Knisley’s French Milk. This title was released by Touchstone Books in October 2008 and brought Knisley a lot of publicity and critical acclaim. However, I didn’t get the chance to read it until I came across it one day in the […]

This Month in Comics: March 2010

By Brandon Burpee | Apr 4, 2010 | Columns

This month was a pretty good month for comics as we saw events end and events start. We saw people return and we saw people die. We also were let down only to be lifted back up. Ok is that enough obligatory opening for you? Me too! So let’s get it on! (Oh yeah my […]

A Crisis of Chronology: The DC Universe According to Geoff Johns

By Walt Richardson | Apr 4, 2010 | Columns

With Blackest Night finished and the Brightest Day on the horizon, today’s Easter gift to you is a list of fan-favorite Geoff Johns’ extensive work in the DC Universe. Unfortunately, as it is Easter and I have family to see, I’ll only be providing you with the list for now, but come back later this […]

Burpee’s Got You Covered!

By Brandon Burpee | Apr 4, 2010 | Columns

This week was an awesome week for covers. I genuinely had a hard time narrowing my list down to the choices you are now presented with. Great covers from a variety of artists, titles and companies. When it was all said and done though this became a Marvel dominated week with on exception. Not only […]

Friday Recommendation: Alias

By Matthew Meylikhov | Apr 2, 2010 | Columns

I am fairly consistent when I talk about Brian Bendis – I love the man’s work through and through, but his early Marvel work is my favorite. I’m not saying this in the way that a lot of people consider any artist of any kind’s early work their best. I don’t believe his talent has […]

Small Press Spotlight: City of Glass

By Multiversity Staff | Mar 30, 2010 | Columns

Article originally written by Steve Ponzo Daniel Quinn is an author who writes under the pseudonym of William Wilson, he inhabits the traits of Wilson’s character Max Work to protect Peter Stillman from Peter Stillman. All the while impersonating detective Paul Auster, who as it turns out, isn’t a detective at all but an author […]

The Short Report: WonderCon!

By Gilbert Short | Mar 30, 2010 | Columns

As if you didn’t know, WonderCon is at the end of this week, running all the way through the weekend, including Easter Sunday. But that won’t stop me! Noooooo. I’ll be there with some help, hopefully, to grab news, information, and hopefully that elusive Geoff Johns interview we’re all DYING to get. Oh man, a […]
