REVIEW: Fantastic Four: Season One
February 7, 2012 3:42 pm "The biggest disappointment is that the Fantastic Four, with the exception of Ben Grimm, are the least interesting characters in the book. Alyssa, Mole Man, and Namor have much more depth and character then the other Four."
To be fair, if you go back and read the original FF #1, Mole Man is by far the most interesting part of the book then, too.

February 3, 2012 1:09 pm But if we don't make snarky complaints about it how will the internets know we're cool?

January 31, 2012 6:32 pm I've been getting a strong Kree vibe since the beginning. Still getting it.

iFanboy Upstarts: David Marquez
January 31, 2012 2:34 pm His issue of Secret Warriors was fantastic. Tells a huge story in a pretty short span.
He's also a really nice guy. I met him at the Dallas Comic Con last year and got a sweet Fury sketch from him.

Stop Everything: Frank Quitely Draws Star Wars
January 31, 2012 12:43 pm Neither here nor there, I always disliked the idea that lightsabers work via heat - it's a coherent light beam that slices atoms apart at the molecular level. Would heat signify that it's really inefficient? Like an incandescent light bulb.
Amazing shot though. My Star Wars interest has dwindled so much, though. It makes me want to see his take on Star Trek, instead.

January 25, 2012 2:11 pm Really, Doom saved the world. He got bored and let the Avengers win.

January 23, 2012 1:59 pm I know Polly Pockets came out with Supergirl and Batgirl figures, if you can find them.

Watch Out, Boys
January 23, 2012 12:13 pm My daughter is just over a year now, so I grabbed the "My First Wonder Woman" touch-and-feel board book for her. It's all about WW's pretty jewels and boots. Sigh.
Seems like the Stephanie Brown Batgirl series would be perfect for a young girl.

January 19, 2012 4:15 pm I don't know how readily available they are, but Jim Starlin's original Dreadstar stuff is pretty good (I don't know about the later material they put out).
