December 12, 2012 7:22 pm Have you watched the new TMNT cartoon Conor? It's kind of like USM, except it's actually funny.
All kidding aside, you really ought to give the Nick TMNT series a shot. It and Green Lantern are the best cartoons on television in my opinion.

December 12, 2012 7:01 pm Wait, so you guys watch the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon, but not Nick's TMNT series?
I can't even wrap my brain around that. That's some serious brand loyalty.

December 12, 2012 6:28 pm Yeah, it would be nice if the iFanboy crew would show some more love to IDW's awesome TMNT series. Issue 16 was especially good.
Come to think of it, why doesn't the Nick cartoon get weekly episode discussions? Do the iFanboy guys not like TMNT?

Great Pages: THE MAN OF STEEL #1
November 5, 2012 11:11 am John Byrne's Superman will always be Superman to me. Making Clark the true identity, setting limits on his powers, giving both Ma and Pa Kent supporting roles in Clark's life, making Lex the shady businessman/de facto owner of Metropolis-- all of it strengthened the mythos and made Superman an even stronger and more relatable character. The 90's Superman animated series is Byrne's Superman used to its maximum potential.
It's a damn shame that subsequent creators undid Byrne's work in the name of blind nostalgia to the Donner films.

Jonah Hex: Where Do I Start?
September 27, 2012 1:22 pm In my mind, Hex hanging out in the future is somehow less blasphemous than Hex hanging out in an east coast city like Gotham. But, like in All-Star Western, Hex is still Hex and he brings the awesome wherever he goes.

Jonah Hex: Where Do I Start?
September 27, 2012 12:41 pm I love Jonah Hex with all my heart, but a Where Do I Start? article is really superfluous. The beauty of Jonah Hex is that you can start ANYWHERE. The vast majority of Jonah Hex stories are one-off adventures that anyone picking up the book for the first time could enjoy. Whether it's a 70's Fleisher tale or a new Gray/Palmiotti issue, a Hex neophyte could read it and immediately understand what's going on.
What Hex books should you read? Whatever you can get your grubby little hands on.

Pick of the Week #351 – Hawkeye #2
September 9, 2012 10:43 pm Damn shame about Near Death. It was one of my favorite ongoings. I'm really hoping we see more someday.
In the meantime, I will definitely be checking out Point of Impact.

Don’t Miss: Paul Allor on TMNT Micro Series #8 Fugitoid
September 4, 2012 6:24 pm It's great to see the IDW TMNT get some love on iFanboy. Definitely picking this up on Wednesday.
Out of curosity, where does one go to read Clockwork? As far as I can tell there isn't a trade for it.
