This Month in Comics: November 2020

By | Dec 1, 2020 | Columns

Earlier this year, with the direct market crippled and local comic shops shut down, things looked pretty bleak. Even as a chorus of pundits wrestled with the age-old question, How will monthly comics survive, the industry found a way, proving it’s resiliency yet again. For now, anyway. Obviously, there are still plenty of problems, but […]

This Month in Comics: September 2020

By | Oct 6, 2020 | Columns

September feels…so long ago. Trying to recall what happened in comics specifically last month is like trying to remember a beloved sweater in a half-forgotten childhood memory. But upon digging through some newspaper clippings and old found footage I can confirm that comics did exist last month and were pretty exciting actually! Things are admittedly […]

This Month in Comics: August 2020

By | Sep 1, 2020 | Columns

This month in comics featured the return of a few key titles that many publishers have likely been waiting to schedule until after the pandemic. I have a suspicion that our current pandemic has finally outlasted these publishing schedules. Hey Big Two, it’s finally time to adapt to the new normal! We are heading into […]

This Month in Comics: July 2020

By | Aug 5, 2020 | Columns

What can anyone say about 2020 that hasn´t been said yet? This year has been so unprecedented, so crazy, and sad for so many people, that it truly, genuinely feels like part of a poorly written science fiction, where no apparent rhyme, logic, or reason really apply. At this stage, it wouldn’t be surprising if […]

This Month in Comics: June 2020

By | Jul 7, 2020 | Columns

It’s been a while since we could last do a “This Month in Comics,” because it’s been a while since we had a full month of comics. But the comics industry is still making it work and things are getting back up to speed, so we finally have enough comics to cover again. We have […]

This Month in Comics: March 2020

By | Apr 7, 2020 | Columns

From premieres to pandemic, March 2020 has been quite a month. However, rather than dwell on the darkest elements for the comic industry, let’s talk about what’s been, on the whole, positive. Not to say that there won’t be some darkness slipping in, but with the emergence of a new status quo for the comic […]

This Month in Comics: January 2020

By | Feb 5, 2020 | Columns

January is an annoying time in popular culture. The New Year has begun, everyone is still working through the post Christmas holiday cheer/hangover, and there really aren’t a whole lot of big conventions and opportunities for big announcements. The truth is that the people who make decisions in the entertainment industry tend to think that […]

This Month In Comics: December 2019

By | Jan 7, 2020 | Columns

Comic fans know December as the month when the shipping schedules get weird, and then someone gifts them a trade paperback they already own. I don’t make the rules. I just have multiple copies of “The Dark Knight Returns” kicking about. But just because there were fewer comics, doesn’t mean they weren’t any good. Here […]
