Digital Comics: Remote Locations

By | Feb 18, 2010 | Columns

Having lived in Alaska now for fourteen years I understand the idea of being in a place just far enough to be considered remote. Being remote in Alaska means some of the culture that the Lower 48, as we like to call it, gets to enjoy we miss out on. We don’t have pro sports […]

Small Press Spotlight: No Hero

By | Feb 16, 2010 | Columns

How much do you want to be a super human? In honor of Warren Ellis’ birthday, I thought it only too appropriate to take some time to look at one of the craziest things he’s written recently, and probably ever: No Hero. Part of me felt I should do a write up on Ignition City, […]

Friday Recommendation: Starman

By | Feb 12, 2010 | Columns

Ask any comic aficionado about James Robinson’s Starman, and most will paint it in a very positive light. But ask many of these same experts for a superhero recommendation, and you’ll hear all the (admittedly well-picked) standards: All-Star Superman, The Immortal Iron Fist, Green Lantern: Rebirth, etc. Don’t get me wrong, each of these are […]

Web Comic Spotlight: SMASH!

By | Feb 8, 2010 | Columns

Webcomics aren’t exactly my thing. I don’t know, but in general they’ve never really clicked for me. I’m always looking for little comics and humorous things I can read, but I’ve never become attached to any comics that I can follow online with a regular basis like I do the comics I go and pick […]

By | Feb 3, 2010 | Columns

Many supporting characters dream of the day they can become full-fledged protagonists, but rarely do they achieve that level of stardom. While I may be speaking in a very strange metaphor, few comic characters have started from such humble beginnings as former Gotham Police Officer and current bearer of The Question mantle, Renee Montoya. Renee […]

Small Press Spotlight: Stumptown

By | Feb 2, 2010 | Columns

In my time running this weekly column, I’ve always seemed to target comics that have been over for quite some time or are not being printed right then. Not sure why that is, but perhaps that’s the nature of smaller press publishers. However, this week I have a title that is both new and currently […]
