Name: Wil Carpenter

Bio: My name is Wil. I'm from jolly old England, where rain is the only comfort. Well, it's not really that comforting. It actually annoys me quite a bit. My local comic shop is LIMITED EDITION, which rocks and the guy who runs, Rich, it is a dude! I'm a big Batman fan, and I scare people with my obsessiveness over the topic (I know what happened when and how for almost everything Batman). None of my friends really like comics, which kinda sucks. If you want to grace me with your friendship or just a simple chatty exchange my e-mail is....(1 moment, I have to look....why do I have to look? It's the easiest e-mail to remember EVER) - wil@wilcarpenter.co.uk

February 7, 2012 8:15 pm Phoned up my shop to make sure this was put by for me and they're missing a box...with this in it! Hopefully it arrives tomorrow morning or else I might cry.

January 16, 2012 4:58 pm I'm fairly certain this is a reprint. But I want it for Morrison and Gibson anyway.

January 12, 2012 8:40 pm That last page of Scalped gave me chills. Such a perfect close to a perfect issue; the double-page spread was brilliant, too!

What Was Your Favorite Single Issue of 2011?
January 2, 2012 2:21 pm Batman #1 - the perfect reintroduction to the world; everything about the book was awesome. That said, Detective Comics #881 is just as good, but the opposite - a perfect ending.

Pick of the Week – 12.28.2011 – American Vampire #22
December 28, 2011 7:57 pm Woop! Day-and-date digital. I bought this while at work and it made me ignore no less than ten customers while I read it. Not great from a sales standpoint, but damn it was a good comic! Scott Snyder might be fighting off the scant few other contenders for my favourite writer of the moment.

MOVIE REVIEW: The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn
December 21, 2011 5:42 pm I've seen it four times since it came out in the UK. One of my favourite movies this year; although, the three times in 2D were far superior to the one in 3D.

TRAILER: The Dark Knight Rises Rises Some More!
December 19, 2011 2:06 pm Having seen Mission Impossible twice (once for the prologue and once for this), I can safely say this may already be the perfect Batman film.
