C2E2: Sabretooth Reborn Begins In July

By Matthew Meylikhov | Apr 15, 2012 | News

In Jason Aaron’s “Wolverine” run (which we loved, by the way), Sabretooth returned from Hell despite being killed with a sword that was supposed to prevent him from coming back to life (comics, everyone!). It’s just hard to keep a good arch-nemesis down, I suppose. Yet, it was never actually explained how he came back from […]

“The Goon” Goes Monthly with Issue #40

By David Harper | Apr 13, 2012 | News

Eric Powell’s “The Goon” has long been a pretty damn influential book in my comic book reading world, if only because it was in the second wave of books I started to read after I came back to comics. While the trio of “Y the Last Man,” “Fables,” and “The Walking Dead” firmly got me […]

Ron Swanson Meets Rorschach in Awesome New Tumblr Mash-Up Site

By David Harper | Apr 11, 2012 | News

If there is one thing out there that I love more than comics, it’s NBC’s Parks and Recreation. In my book, it is undoubtedly the best comedy on television, and its best character is the feminist, libertarian badass Ron Swanson. The guy is pretty much the greatest character ever. A new Tumblr site called “Ron […]

Since February, Marvel has been teasing a Bendis-written book called “Spider-Men”, which we ventured a guess would be a cross-over between the 616 and Ultimate universes of Spider-Man for a mini-event. Marvel was tight-lipped on it, even going so far as to release a solicit with no information, but we never really changed our song. […]
