Fan-Made "The Walking Dead" Clip Kills It (Darabont – Take Note!)

By David Harper | Feb 23, 2010 | News

If you’re a fan of The Walking Dead, Robert Kirkman and Charlie Adlard’s zombie epic, the prospect of the upcoming television show written and directed by Frank Darabont is appetizing in a way quite like human flesh would be for zombies. Except far less disgusting. The story and structure seems to work perfectly for the […]

By David Harper | Feb 23, 2010 | News

Today in an auction through ComicConnect.com, an 8.0 out of 10 CGC rated copy of Action Comics # 1 (the first appearance of Superman) sold for a record breaking $1 million. That was not a typo. $1 million dollars. For a comic. The identity of the buyer is unknown, but with Nicolas Cage out of […]

The Guild Makes Its Way To Comics

By David Harper | Feb 23, 2010 | News

The Guild is one of the web’s most popular purely online shows, telling the tale of an avid group of gamers inside and outside of the game. It’s been a smash hit, critically and commercially, and now it will be making its way to the world of comics. Come March 24th of this year, we’ll […]

Axe Cop: Episode One

By David Harper | Feb 22, 2010 | News

As if Axe Cop could get any better, they’ve now released the first full motion comic. Better yet than the motion comic itself? The unbelievably amazing theme song that goes with it. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to get “Axe Coooop…Axe Coooop” with the wonderfully cheesy 80’s instrumental behind it out of my […]

What If Inglourious Basterds Was A Comic?

By Matthew Meylikhov | Feb 20, 2010 | News

And what if Jack Kirby drew it? While scouring the web, I found a collection of five covers representing the five “parts” of the film Inglourious Basterds by Quentin Tarentino. If you haven’t seen it yet, I don’t know what to tell you. You’re missing an incredible film. In fact, you should see it for […]

New Doctor Who Trailer

By Matthew Meylikhov | Feb 20, 2010 | News

Some people say, “Matt, you consistently say that your site can only be related to comic books, yet you review and talk about Doctor Who a lot. Why is that?” 1) there is a Doctor Who comic, 2) Grant Morrison wrote some of it, and 3) shut up! With that in mind, there is a […]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Feb 20, 2010 | News

It’s a smaller week than usual, but as always I bring you the Movie Round-Up! Oh, and to start it off? A picture of Robert Downey Jr being all meta. Like that? Yeah, I figured you would. Ok. Enjoy the round-up! So to start us off, apparently James Cameron and Marc Webb are having meetings […]

Marvel Covers the Winter Olypmics… Kind Of

By Matthew Meylikhov | Feb 20, 2010 | News

As most people know, I’m a big fan of Marvel’s What The? It’s basically Robot Chicken, but only Marvel. It also has a big emphasis on MODOK, spawning a whole new era of MODOK hilarity. Now, Marvel has decided to cover the Winter Olympics through it’s What The? feature, and the results are amusing, confusing, […]

From the Editor’s Desk

By Matthew Meylikhov | Feb 20, 2010 | News

Welcome back! It’s Friday and just about “closing time” at the Multiversity “offices,” which means it’s time to wrap up everything we did this past week in a nice concise post. I should note we still do have a couple things coming out this weekend, but I don’t expect the majority of you to see […]

By David Harper | Feb 19, 2010 | News

The New York Times Best Sellers list for graphic books is out for the the past week, and it’s one that features a lot of high quality books. It’s nice to look down the Paperback Graphic Books list especially and see so many quality titles on it: Fables (although it’s the dreaded “Great Fables Crossover), […]

Support Emitown!

By Matthew Meylikhov | Feb 19, 2010 | News

You may remember a while ago when David talked about a webcomic he liked here on our site, called EmiTown. We even talked to the eponymous creator, Emi Lenox. To be quite honest, any comic that features a protagonist who loves cats as much as I do gets the official Multiversity Comics stamp of approval. […]

A lot of exciting comics coming out this month from Top Cow Productions, including four titles that are written by Ron Marz. Marz has really taken on a lot of storytelling weight in the Top Cow universe and thrived, developing a unified voice and plan where it was once scattered. Check out all of the […]

Avengers #1 Variant Revealed

By David Harper | Feb 17, 2010 | News

While some may have considered the new Avengers #1 cover a possible grab at money with their focus on arguably the five most popular characters in Marvel, today Marvel confirmed that this is the actual primary lineup of the forthcoming team. This variant from Greg Land showed once again that it’s likely a team that […]

Sean Phillips Goes to The Dark Tower

By David Harper | Feb 17, 2010 | News

For me, Marvel’s adaptation of Stephen King’s Dark Tower series has mostly been one based around my appreciation of the art. While four of the arcs have been astoundingly well illustrated by Jae Lee with the aid of Richard Isanove, the fourth mini The Fall of Gilead was found lacking by yours truly. While Isanove’s […]

James Patterson Looks To Expand His Audience Via Comics

By David Harper | Feb 16, 2010 | News

For those that read “books” (I’m unsure as to what they are, but apparently they are comics without pictures), James Patterson is someone that you likely know. For years Patterson (and his fleet of co-writers) have regaled the world of fiction with floods of books, including the Alex Cross and Women’s Murder Club series of […]

For those that do not know, the Glyph Awards are the comic awards that are designed to honor those titles that are made by, for, or about people of color. Last year they were completely dominated by Jeremy Love’s Zuda title Bayou, winning five awards including Story of the Year. Expectations are high across the […]

Kazu Kibuishi’s Flight Wrapping Up, Amulet Expanding

By David Harper | Feb 16, 2010 | News

Kazu Kibuishi is one of my favorite cartoonists in the game today, and someone I regularly forget about until I’m reminded of his brilliance. Kazu is possibly most well known as the creator and editor of the comic anthology series Flight that have been released by Image Comics and Ballantine Books. If you haven’t read […]
