Name: Alan Robertson

Bio: I am a Marvel Zombie, who dabbles in WildStorm (RIP) and Hellboy. But thanks to the guys at iFanboy as well as the rest of the iFanbase, my tastes have begun to grow...and my bank account shrink. But thats okay because I now consider myself to be a fan of GOOD comics not just Marvel comics.  That said, I blindly buy all X-Men titles that come out and absolutely gorge myself on the continuity. It's like crack...without the open sores and white lips.I work in retail distribution for a number of gift/smoke shops in the Central Texas (and expanding!) area.  I buy my weekly books at Dragon's Lair in Austin, Tx.

Weekly Sketch Up – 01.27.2012
January 27, 2012 11:41 am Full of so much AWESOME today! When I look at Ghost Rider all I can thank of is the "It" episode of South Park. "What do you mean you can control it with the buttons on the Steering Wheel!" And that Phil Noto Star Wars cover makes me think of the Penny Arcade Post and Strip from Wednesday. Darth RAGE indeed!

Six New Titles For DC Comics, Replacing Six Old Titles (UPDATED with 3x More Liefeld!)
January 14, 2012 10:28 am The thing that I was most excited about, with the New 52, was the integration of the Wildstorm characters into the DCU proper. Over the last two months that enthusiasm as absolutely been killed. I don't have any particular hate for the new writers of Stormwatch, Grifter, or Voodoo(well maybe just a little for Jenkins), but I really wish we could have seen where Cornell, Edmondson and Marz were planning...

December 20, 2011 9:49 pm My vote goes to X'ed Out. I enjoyed it so much, that it feels like SO MUCH LONGER than a year since it came out. I can't wait for the next part of the story!

December 19, 2011 9:06 pm Agreed. It's a fuckin' mood killer. I'm really glad I'm not the only one who's noticed this. I was starting to think maybe I was imagining it.

December 19, 2011 4:37 pm In my opinion this isn't just "the internet", this is iFanboy.com. ALOT of us have been posting here for several years and really love the community. I come here because legitimate conversation far outweighs all the BS. So while many of you guys are posting "Welcome to the Internet!", I would argue that here, for the most part, we do conduct ourselves more civilly than commenters on other sites. Is it just me or have those types of comments increased since the New 52 arrived?
