This is definitely not your daddy’s Superman. Nor is this Morrison’s “All Star Superman.” Take the character we know, add…

Let me get the negatives out of the way first.  S. L. Gallant’s art is not my favorite, as his…

February 5, 2012 8:02 pm I think Channing Tatum is back as Duke, and the movie proceeds from the ending of the first film. But the bulk of the characters are new (Jinx, Roadblock, Flint, Lady Jaye, Joe).
January 27, 2012 12:14 pm ...And Barry Kitson can draw Sue Storm as long as he wants.
January 25, 2012 3:17 pm @Paul: Is Hirschfield's daughter's name in there somewhere (I'm blanking on it right now)? That would be an awesome tribute.
January 23, 2012 2:30 pm Fantastic Four, FF, Justice League, Mighty Thor. Sad not to see the new Infestation on Conor's list; I was hoping for weekly updates like last time. BQ: We had an ice storm Friday night into Saturday. Even Sunday morning, the cars were coated in solid ice. Monday morning, feels like spring. Which means that Reds' Opening Day in April (four days before Easter mind you) will bring snow, because it's shaping up to be that kind of a year.
January 18, 2012 7:45 am If nothing else, this event will have great cover art. Love the new Stegman cover, and although I'm usually a fan of simplicity in art, you can't argue against the Cheung cover either.
January 17, 2012 7:58 am Beast has been pretty adamant in his anti-Scott allegiences since he found out about the (pre-Uncanny) X-Force. I think the bigger problem will be Wolverine. What will he do if his students join up with the X-Men? What will that do to the fledgling school? That'll be a great afterwards story.
January 11, 2012 2:53 pm If the Spider-Man vs. Iceman issue features a guest appearance by Firestar, make mine Marvel!
January 9, 2012 3:05 pm There is nothing wrong with it. This is why my 2 year old son can look at me and say, "Daddy, play Batmans with me?" and know I'll come running. Honestly, it's moments like that, playing with your kids and seeing their faces shine, that reminds you even on the worst of days that there is good in the world.
December 28, 2011 6:25 pm Jim Lee X-Men Omnibus Vol. 1 and X-Tinction Agenda oversized hardcover. The goal now is to get the first two X-Force/New Mutants collections and the 2nd Jim Lee Omnibus to complete the collection of that X-Universe transition era. Also got Captain America and Thor on DVD, along with all our Harry Potter DVD's. My son got a lot of stuff - Little People Batman track, Superman and Batman Little People, a talking Captain America action figure and a shooting Captain America shield, a Spider-Man pillow pal and a talking Spider-Man action figure, and a small stuffed Batman. I also GAVE the gift of comics - "Ozma of Oz" to my niece and "Walking Dead: Vol. 1" and "Green Lantern: Rebirth" to her dad, and a stuffed Green Lantern for her little brother.
December 8, 2011 5:19 pm Why not? There's already been an "X-Cutioner."
