Parker

Name: Parker Holland

I live in Texas and once worked in the office of a large comic book store in the area. Through this I learned some of the uglier sides of the comic distribution industry and have come out of the experience still loving comics but in a much different way and for many more reasons.
I am currently on a "DnA" kick and am trying to collect all of their work that I can in issues since DC seems to have a "No Trades Allowed" policy when it comes to the majority of their work.

I Miss Superman!

On Aug 12, 2009 12:00 PM

I think you're in the minority Mike. ALL of the Superman books matter for the first time in years and there is finally some consistency between them. Before this split I was a big supporter of canceling either Superman or Action. Why do we need two books telling mediocre to just down right terrible stories about one character? Then Johns came along and made Action good again but Superman was ...

I'm just glad they have avoided shoving him and MJ together from the get go. It's nice to see him struggling to make it work with Liz.

@ ohcaroline As far as the lateness goes JMS explains in the interview Marvel has known about this since about January and have been stretching out the time between issues on purpose. As far as the scheduling before that I had heard that Coipel just takes a little while longer than some, and since this book was kind of set apart from the rest of the Marvel U he could be allowed to put the tim...

'Spectacular Spider-Man' Season 2 Hits Tonight!

On Jun 22, 2009 6:00 PM

@odino1 I would NOT show it to prescoolers. While it would mostly be ok there are some later episodes with some truly creepy moments. I've seen the whole season and it is awesome for everyone over the age of about 8 I would say. Then again it is a personal decision for everyone depending on the maturity of their child.

Robinson and Bagley Take over 'Justice League'

On Jun 18, 2009 1:38 PM

It's about friggin time. Now we'll just have to see if Robinson can roll with the punches like Mcduffie tried to or if they will let him be a little more free. Either way, having Bagley on art should be great.

The Captain America News

On Jun 15, 2009 9:27 AM

Yeah it seems most people who read the Cap comic regularly really don't want Bucky losing the mantle, but the more casual and/or older fans can't wait to see Steve back. Obviously that is just a generalization and I an sure there are a few who don't fit those categories. On a side note,, I just sought out the info this morning instead of waiting to get spoiled. I was spoiled with Cap #25 so I...

Captain Britain why must you hurt so good? BQ: Josh, and he won't even need any of the weapons, just his pent up 2005 comic hating rage.

I find the article even funnier when you read the article like Jim is on a date.
