January 31, 2012 4:13 pm I know Gaiman is held in higher esteem than McFarlane but this lawsuit always seemed greedy and shady to me. McFarlane's mistake was that he had an oral contract instead of the industry-standard work-for-hire contract.

January 25, 2012 6:23 pm @Ryan Because he's Canadian, not a Ruskie. Culture plays a big part of your drink of choice. So it's beer. He's doing this so he can stand to be around a group of people. Imagine you sense of taste is so great, you kiss a bar floozie and know what she ate. Revolting. Logan is essentially slumming and needs beer goggles if he wants human contact. This makes sense when you think about Wolverine's love of samurai Japan. It was a culture obsessed with cleanliness. (James Clavell's "Shogun" does a great job illustrating how filthy westerners were versus Japanese.) You rarely saw him drunk on sakai in those flashbacks.

January 25, 2012 12:19 pm Exactly the opposite. Much like the explanation of why Wolverine smokes awful cigars (so he can bear the stink of regular people), Wolverine would just want something to dull his senses. With his healing factor, getting drunk is not impossible but it is difficult. So quantity over quality is what he's going for. That's why he's always shown drinking lots of working class beers. Logan will get whatever's cheapest: Bud, Miller, Coors, Pabst.

January 19, 2012 12:43 pm "And so, in addition to flexibility, the new logo communicates this idea of dual identity: There’s more than meets the eye. You have to take a closer look to understand the richness of our characters and stories." That's a line that takes me back to college where some blowhard professors read too much into things. It's a logo! Can people clearly see it stands for DC? No. Fail.

January 17, 2012 12:41 pm Does this remind anyone else of the Warner Bros. logo? In the 70s and 80s, Warner Bros. in attempt to seem more modern, kept messing with their logo. In the 90s they came to their senses and went back to the classic WB-shield. Bring back the 1976 DC-bullet! It was timeless.

January 9, 2012 1:58 pm No one ever says this about lifelong sports fans. How many ADORABLE pictures are there of guys as kids in full uniform who are still wearing authentic ($100) jerseys as adults?

November 28, 2011 1:17 pm If you can swing it you should ask Dave Wyndorf of the band Monster Magnet. Before his band got a record deal he worked in a comic book shop during that era.

October 5, 2011 1:17 pm Bendis? No, no, no. He doesn't "get" Doctor Strange, as we saw in his Avengers run. He mad Brother Voodoo the Sorcer Supreme. To be fair, Strange is one of those characters that few writers can do well. Like the Spectre on the DC side. One of the few who did it right was Brian K. Vaughn, as we saw in Doctor Strange: The Oath. But if you want starpower Marvel should try to land Christopher Paolini, the writer of Eragon and the Inheritance saga. He has a great grasp on magic and how to avoid the "fluid boundaries."
