A Crisis of Chronology: Chaos War

By | Oct 23, 2010 | Columns

The shenanigans of Hercules and company within the pages of Greg Pak and Fred Van Lente’s Chaos War have not only brought back dead heroes, but dead columns as well! Chaos War #1 had a handy checklist in the back of the issue that listed the bare minimum of trades to read in order to […]

A Crisis of Chronology: Star Wars

By | Apr 11, 2010 | Columns

Since childhood I’ve had a love of Star Wars, and I’m sure it is a love that will never go away. Today I bring you a slightly different column, wherein I highlight various series (certainly not all) spread out across the Star Wars timeline. Those series that need to be read in a specific order […]
