EXCLUSIVE: VIKING #1 to be reprinted in WALKING DEAD #64

On Aug 5, 2009 3:19 AM

It's definitely a good idea. I'm now buying chew regularly because of the black & white issue they put in the back of walking dead. I've been thinking about checking out viking but just haven't done it yet. I'll prob like it and start picking it up after this

Iron Man and Wolverine Anime Trailers

On Jul 31, 2009 9:30 AM

It woulda been great if the wolverine movie was about logan going to japan to control his violent anger (which i've kinda noticed isn't an uncommon theme in anime). They can have the claws and everything but if they made it like a straight up samurai anime that would be fantastic!!! I'm sure everyone's saying this but the wolverine trailer felt more like another studio stole the 3 claw idea a...

What can we learn from the (early) success of THE UNWRITTEN?

On Jun 11, 2009 5:00 PM

@Jimski - It's true that unless the previews are STELLAR it's not gonna sell the book. After reading the preview for Unwritten I was actually turned off 'cause like you said, it was out of context. The one dollar price point sold me and the quality brought me back for me. I know not many people can make a gamble like this but if you have enough faith in your product give someone an easy way t...

I'm gonna have to give this a shot. I've been feeling particularly jaded on comics lately so i didn't buy this but having a week as fantastic as this I now have enough hope to go out and buy this issue. Still got three well anticipated books left and it's already been a fantastic week. Old Man Logan, Gaurdians of The Galaxy, Nova, and New Avengers all got 5 Star ratings from me. I don't think...

Contest! Sequentially Ever After

On Apr 14, 2009 11:00 AM

 @ALL YOU WRITERS WHO WANT ARTISTS - If you want an artist to take up interest don't just put what story you're gonna adapt. Say what you're gonna maybe change. Maybe come up with what you might want the tone to be.  I'm a bit of an artist but i'm thoroughly aware of my limitations. So to see if i'm interested in doing a project I would kinda wanna know if I have the stylistic chop...

Woe be the Comic Recommender

On Mar 18, 2009 12:00 PM

I think from the snootiness of his comments above that I officially don't like KickAss. Maybe I read it incorrectly and he was just being sarcastic...idk My recommendations are kinda predictable. Blankets, Scott P, Runaways, Long Halloween, Supes For All Seasons. These recommendations though were solely based upon my friends interests. It all depends on the personality of the reader. I agree ...

On Mar 18, 2009 2:50 AM

After talking all kinds of crap about this series I got really excited after watching this episode. I found all my FC issues and bought the second issue of Superman Beyond(which i never purchased because I HATED the first more than anyone you'll ever meet due to lack of comprehension) I just finished reading the frist 3 FC issues and the 2 BEYOND issues and (i never thought I'd say this but) ...

02.01.2009 - Episode #169 - Battlefields: Dear Billy #1

On Feb 1, 2009 4:37 AM

@Josh - i think that the word you were looking for to describe the art in Battlefields may have been, "ICONIC." Especially when you were saying in terms of the Scott McCloud way of looking at it. Iconic is the perfect way to describe the paired down and simplified art style in Dear Billy.
