This Month in Comics: June 2015

By | Jun 30, 2015 | Columns

We’re already halfway through 2015 and you know what that means? It means it’s time for solemn reflection on how you didn’t realise it was already July and how there was so much you wanted to do this year, but just have gotten to yet. You suddenly realise there’s no time left in the year […]

This Month in Comics: May 2015

By | Jun 1, 2015 | Columns

Perhaps everything in May was overshadowed by the release of Mad Max: Fury Road and the overwhelming positive reception that movie received.  Even though the first of the prequel comics didn’t quite hit the mark, many artists were all too happy to turn in their renditions of Furiosa, and we were all too happy to reblog […]

This Month in Comics: April 2015

By | May 4, 2015 | Columns

April may be the cruelest month (it certainly was for us sun-starved Montrealers), but the comics news it brought was largely LOL-worthy. The high point, of course, was the release of the first image of Jared Leto as the Joker. Watching the comic world react to this made Twitter-scrolling especially enjoyable. (Let’s not forget the […]

This Month in Comics: March 2015

By | Apr 1, 2015 | Comics

We’re already a third of the way through 2015, which means that, although Nike have announced a release date for those self-lacing shoes we’ve all been pining for, it looks as though we’re going to have to wait a while longer for mass-produced hover-boards and a new addition to the Jaws franchise. Still, crushing technological […]

This Month In Comics: February 2015

By | Mar 3, 2015 | Comics

I don’t like February. It’s not even a whole month and then it likes to get fancy on us and add an extra day every few years. It’s full of snow and cold and silly non holidays. Best thing that comes from it? Comics. It was a good month with a lot of strong contenders […]

This Month In Comics: January 2015

By | Feb 2, 2015 | Columns

After an amazing 2014 for comic books, 2015 had a bang-up beginning. It wasn’t difficult to choose my favorite issues of the year or favorite artist, but the other categories were pretty difficult to narrow down to just one (even with runners up). It’s a great time to be a Batman fanatic, with the family […]

This Month in Comics: December 2014

By | Jan 12, 2015 | Columns

As I started writing this, I kept realizing that every piece of news, and several of the issues, I wanted to mention either happened or came out in November or January. What happened to December? It’s a blur. I blame the egg nog. One thing that stood out in the last month of 2014 was […]

This Month In Comics: October 2014

By | Nov 3, 2014 | Columns

October has gone, and November has come. Our melted Reese’s Cups and BoJack Horseman masks have been replaced with turkey and a season of holidays where you’re obligated to talk to your parents. On the movie front, we got EVERYTHING from DC and Marvel who announced so many movies for the next six years that […]

This Month In Comics: September 2014

By | Oct 2, 2014 | Columns

After the blockbuster months of July and August, September was a realtively quiet month for comics and I’m rather glad for it. While that does mean there were no real pants-wettingly exciting announcements (for me, at least, anyway), it also means there wasn’t really a big controversy stir-up this month and I think we can […]

This Month in Comics: August 2014

By | Sep 3, 2014 | Columns

August was a relatively low key month for comics. That is, if you classify the world’s most valuable comic book selling for over $3 million low key. In all likelihood, this development probably made a bigger splash in mainstream news media than the latest death of character X ever will. Aside from this event, August […]

This Month in Comics: July 2014

By | Aug 5, 2014 | Columns

How do you sum up July in comics? There was only the biggest comic convention in the world, is all, and while it wasn’t the best year for announcements, there’s still plenty to discuss. We also lost an Eisner – which puts us in fine company, I gotta say. One surprise was the announcement of […]

This Month In Comics: June 2014

By | Jul 1, 2014 | Columns

June 2014 in comics was a rather low key month, all things considered. DC Comics continued to release a couple of pretty good weekly comics in “Batman Eternal” and “New 52 Futures End”, while the rest of their line continues to be hit and miss. “Batman Eternal” #11, in particular, was a very special issue […]
