PraxJarvin

Name: Brian McNamara

Bio: For as long as I can remember I've been a geek. Cartoons, music, movies, books & comics. You name it; I love it. Now I wouldn't say I'm the "classical" nerd/geek. Despite my origins in the four-color, pulp world, I was heavily shaped by the sounds of 70s punk idols like the The Damned, The Clash and SeX pIsToLs as well as early 90s grunge and punk. That's me in a nutshell. I hope you stick around to find out more. I'm 22 years old and a recent graduate of Fordham University with a BA in Anthropology and Communications & Media Studies. In September I'll be attending Teachers College, Columbia University to study Anthropology & Education for an MA. I'm a member of the Media Ecology Association and the American Anthropologist Association.

    It’s one thing to wear your influences on your sleeve, another to just flat out do your influences over again…

    I really didn’t enjoy this issue. Weaver’s art is very good, but is a little too fluid in one issue…

    Twelve months ago, I was so enamored with the first issue of a title that I was motivated to write…

    ‘Arrow’ – S01E18 – “Salvation”
    March 28, 2013 12:08 am Haven't seen the episode yet (Waiting for it to hit iTunes) but I hope it's better than the unnecessary parkour Roy did when he saved Thea last week. "Let me do a spin off this wall. It aided me in no way!" It was like that time Kirk dropkicked the wall of the Enterprise to catapult himself into an enemy! Your stamp of approval has me hoping for some pretty good stuff.

    March 22, 2013 5:44 pm This makes me so unbelievably happy. This is the Batman I first experienced. I can still recall watching the reruns on USA right after He-Man. Robin getting swallowed by a clam! Pinky! The giant milkshakes. I will hand over all my money to read this. (What I wouldn't give for a DVD rerelease, but that's next to impossible.)

    March 21, 2013 10:36 pm Apparently you did. At least enough to go through the effort of actually posting this comment, after reading the article.

    Pick of the Week – 03.20.2013 – The Private Eye #1
    March 21, 2013 9:56 pm I loved this so much. Having seen some of the art around the Web before buying it, I actually plunked down $5. I'll probably amortize that over future issues, but felt like giving a high amount on the first one as a sign of faith in the product. I'll probably do $1 or $2. But sweet Odin was this amazing.

    March 21, 2013 6:45 pm Or well, checking the dates again, he was laying the seeds for the reveal of MiracleMan that Steve Niles ultimately did a few issues later.

    March 21, 2013 6:39 pm Thing people forget/may not know: Bendis was writing Marvel/MiracleMan in HELLSPAWN, under the name Man O'Miracles many years ago. This was before the Copyright stuff hit the fan and they went in another direction with him, but I've been thinking about this since they revealed they MarvelMan purchase years ago.
