The Dangers Of Christopher Nolan’s Batman

By Matthew Meylikhov | Oct 11, 2009 | Columns

I have often stated, much to the annoyance of everyone around me, that I don’t think Christopher Nolan’s Batman films are all that great. Sure, they’re well acted and well written, but in contexts of the comic book source material, they’re highly inaccurate and put a veil over new reader’s eyes as to what Batman […]

Welcome to Emitown

By David Harper | Oct 10, 2009 | Columns

As a fan of comics, you’re quick to realize how new favorites come in the most surprising of places. Whether it’s bizarre quarterly books like Brahm Revel’s black and white ape Vietnam soldier epic Guerrillas, superimposed Final Fantasy sprite comedic powerhouse 8-bit Theater, or graphic novels you read about on blogs like Nick Abadzis’ Laika, […]

Friday Recommendation: Sleeper

By David Harper | Oct 9, 2009 | Columns

With Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips’ current collaboration Criminal restarting this week as the initial issue of their new arc The Sinners is being released, I could only think of one book to recommend this Friday: Sleeper. Sleeper was the second collaboration between Brubaker and Phillips and it was the first thing I ever read […]

Friday Recommendation: Invincible

By Matthew Meylikhov | Oct 2, 2009 | Columns

I’ve recently gone on somewhat of a graphic novel buying spree. I have this HUGE list of graphic novels I believe I have to own (actually typed out in full in a nice Excell spreadsheet) and I’ve been going to different comic book stores seeing what deals I can get on books. I’ve picked up […]

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

By David Harper | Sep 30, 2009 | Columns

It’s my turn to give you all the breakdown on the best and worst from the world of comics this month, and I can safely say it was a great month in comics. When trying to figure out what the “worst” books and moments were, it was pretty difficult. That is not something I can […]

How A Wonder Woman Movie CAN Be made

By Gilbert Short | Sep 29, 2009 | Columns

Over the years, Many people have tried to adapt the last third of the DC Trinity into a movie property, passing through various hands including the always amazing Joss Whedon. And while even he eventually dropped the project like a bad habit, it really can’t be that hard to translate her into a lucrative franchise […]

Vertigo and You Part I: Current Releases

By Matthew Meylikhov | Sep 28, 2009 | Columns

With the announcement that DC was becoming DC Entertainment, many things were inevitably set up to change. For one thing, DC wanted to set a much bigger precedent into their movie department, and with the massive success of the Dark Knight, who can blame them? The new president of DC Entertainment Diane Nelson has stated […]

Friday Recommendation: Superman/Batman – Public Enemies

By Gilbert Short | Sep 25, 2009 | Columns

Usually I try to recommend some slightly less-than-mainstream titles that you may or may not have heard of, but that’s not the case this week. In honor of the new animated DC film being released on Tuesday, I feel it’s appropriate to recommend one of my favorite graphic novels in recent years, on with the […]

Character Spotlight: Moon Knight

By Matthew Meylikhov | Sep 19, 2009 | Columns

Those who followed our reviews this week will surely have noticed me covering a brand new Moon Knight series entitled Vengeance of the Moon Knight. I gave it a pretty positive review and stated how much I enjoyed the character, and that a Spotlight was in order. Well, here’s the Spotlight! I figured it can’t […]

Friday Recommendation: Hitman

By David Harper | Sep 18, 2009 | Columns

Garth Ennis is one of the most prolific writers out there, as his gritty work on Vertigo titles like Preacher and Hellblazer and his MAX run on the Punisher have proven to be some of the most critically acclaimed work from the past twenty years. However, in my opinion his second best work (besides my […]

Friday Recommendation: Planetary

By Matthew Meylikhov | Sep 11, 2009 | Columns

To be quite honest, I’m shocked that this hasn’t been recommended by any of us yet. I know that I personally should’ve known better. Long before I even realized who he was, whenever I read or someone said the name Warren Ellis I knew in my head that this correlates to “the author of Planetary.” […]

Friday Recommendation: Kinetic

By Gilbert Short | Sep 4, 2009 | Columns

In celebration of my own personal week, I’m going to recommend a truly random book, that I found randomly on a random trip to a random comic shop. OK, It wasn’t. it was my normal shop, I promise the rest is true though! When you’re under the weather, with a cold, the flu, or whatever, […]

Friday Recommendation: Girls

By Gilbert Short | Aug 28, 2009 | Columns

While putting together this entry, I came across another entry that was suspiciously similar to mine. Rather than delete it and start over, I decided to let you in on treat. This blogs first ever DOUBLE RECOMMENDATION. Now you know you have to read it. But don’t believe me, read this first. Especially since I […]

Friday Recommendation: Nextwave

By David Harper | Aug 21, 2009 | Columns

Warren Ellis is one of the most disturbed, bizarre, hilarious, and utterly brilliant writers in the history of mainstream comics. His works are always on the precipice of insanity, but somehow he always pulls it together to make not only a coherent story but what are frequently the most well written and forward thinking comics […]

Character Spotlight: Blackest Night Mastermind Revealed!

By Gilbert Short | Aug 18, 2009 | Columns

In news leaked last week, The head honcho of The Back Lanterns was revealed. It’s not Scar, and it’s not The Black Hand. It’s someone else. Since this is technically a spoiler, I’ll hide it behind a cut. If you want to read on, you can. If you don’t, you can skip ahead. With Blackest […]

Character Spotlight: Darkhawk

By Gilbert Short | Aug 17, 2009 | Columns

For anyone following War of Kings, you miiiight have noticed that a certain 90’s character has returned to prominence, even surpassing his role he held when he originally had his own eponymous title: Darkhawk. He was one of my favorite characters when I was a kid(even surpassing Spider-Man), so you can bet I’m excited he’s […]

Author Retrospective: Geoff Johns

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 16, 2009 | Columns

It’s pretty much impossible these days to go a week without seeing Geoff Johns’ name on a comic book. I would say without a doubt that he’s one of the biggest guns in the DC arsenal at the moment, and probably one of the most important young writers of today, and I’m not the only […]

Character Spotlight: Superboy

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 15, 2009 | Columns

You may have noticed a little book called Adventure Comics #1 on the stands this week. You may have even read our glowing review of it, urging you to pick it up. You may have even picked it up (to which I congratulate you). However, the rest of you might be slightly confused as to […]

Friday Recommendation – DC Universe: The Stories of Alan Moore

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 14, 2009 | Columns

I love writing this article. Even if now it rotates between all of us, it’s such a treat to get to dish out some news on what’s hot and what’s not. By that I clearly mean I love telling people what they should be reading. Call it a power trip, but it’s true. Having the […]

HAPPY 70TH BIRTHDAY, MARVEL COMICS!

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 11, 2009 | Columns

Today is the 70th Anniversary of Marvel Comics, and that’s a milestone if I’ve ever heard one! One of the two comic giants of our era, Marvel has been publishing quality comics now since 1939, completely defining a whole era of comics (along with their biggest competitor). And now, at 70 years old, it’s still […]
