Who Has The Best Villains in Comics?
September 26, 2012 2:03 pm What's great about the Rogues is that they're a fraternity - and I mean that in the best possibly way (not the animal house, old school kind of way). It's their actions together that make them so compelling. Individually, not so much.

Spider-Man
Fantastic Four

Batman
Superman

Joker is probably the greatest comic book villain of all time. Don't believe me? Count how many Jokers you see Oct 31, watch Nicholson or Ledger's performance as the character or (re)read the Killing Joke and Death in the Family. It's kind of not even close.

Remake & Reboot: Marvel 2099
September 26, 2012 1:22 pm Why not hit the reset button play with the concept Hickman introduced in Fantastic Four - that the Thing ages only one day a year - and have Ben Grimm serve as the fulcrum of the 2099 universe?

September 25, 2012 11:02 am The Will is cool and all but putting him at 3 is like putting LeBron James in the Hall of Fame after his rookie season.

September 18, 2012 9:28 am Can I just say it's really nice to see SIX titles from one of the big two that feature female lead characters:
Catwoman, Wonder Woman, Supergirl, Batwoman, Sword of the Amethyst, and Birds of Prey.
You go girls.

It’s Official: Ivan Reis To Replace Jim Lee as JUSTICE LEAGUE Artist With #15
September 13, 2012 9:14 am Yeah, I can't see Johns getting paired with a sub-par art team on any book he does at DC. Dude knows Richard Donner, y'all.

Marvel NOW!: Daniel Way and Steve Dillon to Relaunch THUNDERBOLTS
September 13, 2012 9:08 am Based on Josh's post and a lot of the comments here, I'd say the biggest mistake Marvel made was branding this team the Thunderbolts.
I get that Thunderbolts may have been the longest running monthly series launched after 1995 but sales have never been that stellar and they've received hardly any cross-media promotion (i.e. No sign of the Thunderbolts in an episode of the Avengers cartoon). What is it about the Thunderbolts as a brand does Marvel see worth keeping?
