Review: Superman: Doomed #1

By Zach Wilkerson | May 16, 2014 | Reviews

If you frequent the right message boards, you’ve likely heard the question a thousand times: “Who would win in a fight between Superman and Goku?” Well, “Superman: Doomed” #1 doesn’t come anywhere close to answering that question; it is, however, about as close to “Dragon Ball Z” as Superman could get. Written by Greg Pak, […]

Review: Shutter #2

By Michelle White | May 15, 2014 | Reviews

Our first jaunt into the world of “Shutter” was an adventure and a half, with the scope and oddness of this universe definitely catching our attention.

Review: Secret Avengers #3

By Alice W. Castle | May 15, 2014 | Reviews

Have you ever wondered what would happen if you took “Wild Children” Ales Kot and “ZERO” Ales Kot and mixed them together and then sprinkled in a little Marvel Universe flavouring for good measure? “Secret Avengers” happens, apparently. Written by Ales Kot Illustrated by Michael Walsh “POST-NUCLEAR” • A post-nuclear warhead has gone missing in […]

Review: The United States of Murder Inc. #1

By Zach Wilkerson | May 15, 2014 | Reviews

So here’s this book with a preposterously long title, created by two guys with equally long names. One has a penchant for long running and long delayed books. This is a pretty long book itself, clocking in at over 40 pages. It takes place a long way into the future, in a U.S. that’s far […]

Fifteen Thoughts on Arrow’s “Unthinkable” [Review]

By Brian Salvatore | May 15, 2014 | Reviews

For tonight’s episode of Arrow, I wrote my headlines for these bullet points in real time while watching, so you’ll get a first hand look at the crazy roller coaster of emotions I was on. 1.

60 Years On, “Godzilla” Honors the Past and Looks to the Future [Spoiler-Free Review]

By Brian Salvatore | May 14, 2014 | Movies, Reviews

I am a fan of Godzilla in many of his incarnations. Gojira is one of my favorite films of all time, yet I also find myself reaching for Godzilla’s Revenge on the DVD shelf, as well as keeping a copy of James Stokoe’s “Half Century War” close by. What has always appealed to me about […]

The “Life and Legend” of Box Brown’s “Andre the Giant” [Review]

By Matthew Meylikhov | May 14, 2014 | Reviews

If there’s one thing that intersects more often than you’d think, it’s comic books and wrestling. It’s something that I’ve certainly noticed the more I get older, but there seems to be a definite venn diagram of people who like one or the other meeting in the middle. It was never something that I found […]

One Big Thought and 10 Shorter Thoughts on Agents of SHIELD’s “Beginning of the End” [Review]

By Matthew Meylikhov | May 14, 2014 | Reviews

I have so many thoughts on last night’s Agents of SHIELD that, as much as I wanted to keep to the regular scheme of this review series, I couldn’t. Not even a little bit. So here’s the catch: I’m going to do a long-form thought that is spoiler-free, and then I’ll break things down into […]

Five Additional Thoughts on Game of Thrones’ “The Laws of Gods and Men” for Book Readers [Review]

By Matthew Meylikhov | May 12, 2014 | Reviews

Welcome back to your supplemental Game of Thrones coverage here at Multiversity, brought to you by a snobby book reader who thinks it is oh so cool to know what’s supposed to happen in the show against what does happen in the show! Or, well, something like that, anyway. Let’s begin. 1. The Trial was […]

Five Thoughts on Game of Thrones’ “The Laws of Gods and Men” [Review]

By David Harper | May 12, 2014 | Reviews

As we enter into the second half of the fourth season, Tyrion’s trial begins, Braavos is shown for the first time (SQUEEE!) and Dany realizes that heavy is the head that wears the crown. All that, and I never want this show to end ever. Sadly, it does. Harumph. As per usual, my thoughts are […]

Review: Iron Fist: The Living Weapon #2

By Alice W. Castle | May 9, 2014 | Reviews

You know, if I were to put money on it, I would never have guessed that 2014 would be the resurgent year for grindhouse kung-fu comics. But, here we are with the second issue of “Iron Fist: The Living Weapon” and that resurgance is in full swing. Hell, Marvel’s even rebooting “Deadly Hands Of Kung […]
